He said "yeah, his voice sounds just like your Eagle", making the same hand motion. :hilarious::hilarious: Love how they're MY Steeler & MY Eagle. He was obviously talking about Troy being as soft spoken as Timothy.

is that why I love #43?...hmmm I never thought of that!

The radio is playing Make You Feel My Love by Bob Dylan---I'm sure you know who I'm thinking of when I hear that song--- and I like that person's version better. :thumbsup:

Re: Little things that remind you of the Eagles

having a get together today with a few girls...one of them was talking about some family squabble...and she kept saying..."I kept telling her to walk away...walk away...just walk away when that happens"....she kept repeating it...and I was crackin' up and smiling...the whole time 'cause she just kept saying to "walk away"....she must have said it ten times in five minutes....so what song do I have in my head?....

It's such a high energy song. It makes you want to move! Everytime I go to an Eagles show and they start playing WA, I always think, "Okay, here we go!"

Re: Little things that remind you of the Eagles

That phrase gets used a lot in the media, doesn't it? I wonder if you randomly asked, say, 100 people what band did that song, how many would know?

Re: Little things that remind you of the Eagles

Good question, PM. I do think that a lot of the baby boomers that were around in the 70's do associate the song with the band. But, I wonder how many folks under 40 would know (Border members excluded, of course)?

Inless you are an eagles fan...I dont think the newer generation would know the the term"life int he fast lane"

Re: Little things that remind you of the Eagles

I think they would know it. They just wouldn't necessarily associate it with the Eagles. I have a Brewer's Dictionary of Modern Phrase & Fables which state the phrase was 'coined in 1976' but doesn't give its actual origin.

Re: Little things that remind you of the Eagles

I was amazing my Grandad this morning with the wonders of Google Street View (!) and he asked me to find their old house in Oxford, which I did. As I was navigating it, I saw that their road led into Henley Street. I smiled but remained silent. He wouldn't get it. ;)

Henley St. is the main drag near UT's campus in Knoxville...I always used to giggle at the name when I was younger, though :grin:

You should ask them, "Does that mean anything Eagles-related I charged to that card would be interest free?..." :wink: :nahnah:
