I had no idea where to put so I decided to post it here:
Last week a radio station presented the most popular 2000 songs ever. People could pick out 5 songs out of... I don't now how many. A lot of Eagles songs made it and HC is on No. 6. :partytime:
Just wanted to let you know about the rankings:
HC 6
TS on 537
Desperado 554
LE 594
TIE 556
NKIT 783
HL 999
TITTL 1101
OOTN 1312
NMCD 1421
LROOE 1555
BBF 1959
Boys Of Summer 417
Look at all the "new" songs that made it! Very cool!
Yes Soda, that's what thought too... when you see the list most of the songs are classics so it's great to see some "new" Eagles songs.
No. 1 for many many years is Stairway To Heaven btw.
There were also another voting in another state in Germany and I saw HC on No. 4 :partytime: and also many other Eagles songs made the top 1000 but sadly no song from LROOE.
Thanks for posting that, EF. That`s very interesting!
Oh that is cool, EF. I'm also surprised at the new songs that made the list, but glad to see it! :thumbsup:
Cliff is watching the live streaming video of the New York Marathon on his computer. While I was fixing my coffee I heard the familiar refrains of In The City. *G* I immediately said "OOO I gotta post that!" hehehe
I got a "twofer" today. Finally my clock radio woke me up with the Eagles! Life In The Fast Lane! What a song to wake up to!
And then, on my way to work I got PEF! I've mentioned before that my drive is only 2-3 minutes long. Unfortunately I could not listen to all of it, as I was running late. What a morning! :grooving:
I went shopping at the store, the other day and Life's Been Good, came on over the loud speaker:cool:
I went to get petrol ('gas') :grin: earlier and HC came on the radio!
This morning I heard on the radio Witchy Woman!
Heart of the Matter on Lite 96.1, don't get to hear that one on the radio that often.
I've been away for so long I'd forgotten about this thread, and as I type Take It Easy has just come on Absolute Classic Rock!!
The same programme played What Do I Do With My Heart a couple of weeks ago. While I was quietly & happily transported to another place, my son said " Is this the Eagles?" Good man!!
I've started listening to Radio 2 in the car, and I was amazed to catch the end of YBTTC one afternoon - only the second time I've heard it on a public broadcast, and strangely thrilling!
Listening to the Classic Rewind channel on Sirius and they just played At The Station by Joe Walsh. Don't believe I've ever heard it on the radio before. :thumbsup:
Just heard Hotel California on the short drive home for lunch. I was thinking about what was said in another thread about hearing HC to death. What I tend to do with songs like HC now is just listen closely to one part only. For example, today I listened to just the bass. Sometimes I listen to the duel guitars and sometimes I listen to Don's beautiful lead vocals and other times I listen to the harmonies. It helps you appreciate the song even more!
I was at the dollar store on Wednesday and I heard Please Come Home For Christmas. I hadn't heard that song in forever.
Take It Easy just came on :inlove:
Yesterday I heard "Sunset Grill" in a bicycle shop, of all places! What a nice surprise!:thumbsup:
Today I was at the dentist, I go only 2 times in the year to the preventive medical examinations, which are important for the health insurance companies, so if they pay if something with the teeth.I have fear of the dentist stupid I know but I can do anything about it!
Anyway, I was sitting in the waiting room and what I heard One More Mile!!!!!:):):)That made everything much more bearable!
Wow- You actually heard Timothy's One More Mile? How cool is that!!!
Wow! Amazing!
Yeah, it was really cool,I was totally surprised, I never expected this or another song by Timothy to hear somewhere, since not even be the Eagles or other solo stuff (Don / Glenn) frequently in the radio to be played.Quote:

This morning at work I called a business client and was put on hold to the joyful noise of Please Come Home For Christmas. Unfortunately I wasn't left on hold for very long! :sigh:
This is a phrase rarely heard! lolQuote:

Today I was shopping with hubby in the Goodwill, and much to my amazement, "Waiting in the Weeds" started playing!! I know I must have had a HUGE grin on my face, and what a thrill to hear the entire song! I have always loved that song so much, and it had been a while since I heard it. It's even more beautiful today, then when I first heard it on the album, a few years ago!:heart:
Got a huge grin on my face when I heard You Belong to the City on the car radio yesterday!
I heard Boys of Summer on the ride to Walmart this morning :inlove:
Radio is just playing The End Of The Innocence :inlove:
I was in the grocery store last night and heard True Love over their intercom system. I don't remember the last time I heard that one in a store, but I sure wasn't complaining! :thumbsup:
Sometimes it's hard to hear the music playing at work with all of the slots, people talking, and chips being played with but last night they had the volume up louder than usual so I was able to hear the music perfectly. I got a triple dose last night. First, I heard I Hear You Knocking and thought of Glenn then right after that song they played A Life Of Illusion. Later in the night I heard The Long Run. And to end my night, I heard Life In The Fast Lane during my 5 minute drive home from work.
Wow Peek - that's a pretty impressive dose of Eagles in one evening. You're gonna have to try to listen a little closer at work! :wink:
Not a direct "Eagles" song but too funny all the same....
Settled in lastnight to watch some television, turned on Cold Case for lack of anything else that caught my interest. One of the early scenes was a 1960's flashback to a party with a bunch of hippie-types and the music they used was The James Gangs' "Walk Away"....couldn't help myself, had to sing along!
That's great! lol
i work at a cafe in Carmel, and yesterday during a small lunch rush and i heard the opening bass line of One of These Nights!!! I sang that song the whole time i was helping customers :)
I was listening to my ipod on the bus home from work just now, and I randomly decided to put the radio on (I don't think I've ever listened to the radio on my ipod.) Guess what song greeted me? One of These Nights! It was at the 'I can feel her but she's nowhere in sight' part. Made my day!
I don't exactly know where to post this, so I will do it here.
My husband and I were having dinner with a group of friends last night to cheer up one friend whose mother had just passed away. We were all talking and laughing about funny things that happen at the most unexpected times. My husband said that his eldest sister was a huge Elvis fan and when she died, she requested that they play songs from Elvis' Gospel album, so when we walked into the chapel for her funeral, they were playing Elvis singing "How Great Thou Art."
Well, my friend knows that I am a huge Eagles fan so she said, "We will have to play Eagles songs at Dana's funeral," and started singing "Already Gone." Everyone burst into laughter. :rofl:
LOL!!!!!
One day last week I had a meeting that I was very apprehensive about. I was quite worried as it was possible that the meeting itself & the outcome could be quite unpleasant. My clock radio woke me up that day to the sound of "Take It Easy". (My favorite son of all time!) That set the tone for the day & I approached the meeting with less apprehension. It turned out to be a pleasant & positive experience.
"Don't let the sound of your own wheels make you crazy!" :thumbsup:
What a great story! Glad things went well.
GL--Love it. Isn't it amazing the way music can change your whole frame of mind?
