  • @tripleheshy Frey and Henley made Felder rich again. Henley & Frey were having productive solo careers, they didn`t need to reunite for the money. The reunion in `94 single handedly saved Felder,Schmit and Walsh from financial issues. Don`t you get it ? There is no Eagles without Frey and Henley.

  • So that excuses their greed?

  • oh yeah

    one of their best. there are others i like more but this is on my top eagles list

  • well i believe this is a great song and i love it...go timothy xxx

  • are you people that stupid? You have to make music polital. Get a life.

  • great song

  • Just because he didn't write as many songs and sing as Don and Glenn did, that does not make his work expendable, no matter who you hire to do it. Maybe Felder is rubbing it in a little too thick, but I think he kinda has a point, by believing Frey, and Azoff see all the ex members work "Meisner, Leadon, & Felder" as expendable. Each member contributed something special to the band, and all of it's worthy of recognition. More than Frey and Azoff give it anyway.

  • Well the fact remains. It it weren't for Felder they wouldn't have Hotel California, even if all he does these days is boast about how he had the original idea for the song. Felder was and still is to this day a great musician, and I think they were wrong to sack him just like that, and replace him with some studio yahoo that doesn't even get credit as a band member, yet you still does all the lead guitar work that Felder did.

  • Why does Glenn sing both the first and third verses? They should have let Tim Schmidt or Joe Walsh sing the third verse. If you watch the live version of them playing this song in 1972, Randy Meisner sings the third verse. Watch it, its in poor quality but he does. Does Glenn have some kinda fetish for singing "all" off Randy's former leads? lol

  • Don Felder chose to not come back with them. They did not do it without him. :)

  • What happened to Don Felder? I kinda miss him too!

  • Man I feel damn sad about Eagles. How could they sacked their old pal Don Felder just like that? I mean he's the main guitarist and one of the best in the world. He's one of those stockholder, sure he's got a right to question his stocks.

  • founding partner??.....how was brought in for the 3rd album, not exactly there from the git-go........get your facts straight.....

    He sued for being "coerced" to sign his rights away...lol, no mention of a gun or holding his family hostage. I wonder what he was payed to be " coerced" Shelly Long, Peter Criss, Ace frehley ,David Caruso and a host of others thought they were bigger than the show they were with......Where are they ? sitting on the sidelines, with Felder, where they belong.

  • If his case was not convincing then why did he win it?? David Caruso??? He's only on the most watched show in the world right now. I suggest you get your facts straight. The rest of them can sit on the sidelines for the rest of their lives because they have fuck you money. Trust me, they're getting the last laugh not you or me or anyone else.

  • Most watched??..try 28th currently, next to Spongebob of all things.......He signed his rights away and now he's bitching, that's ok though, he's not the first to wish it was all a nightmare. I saw them when they were here.....Felder who??.......don't need him

  • Brought in for the 3rd album.....this defines founding partner?

  • @tripleheshy felder did not win. the case was settled out of court.

  • Good to be sober Joe, good job.

  • my boyfriend sings this to himself :) i heard him!

  • Great

  • Just read Felders book, wish I hadn't! Lost a lot of respect for some of my favorite musicians and one of the greatest bands of all time in my opinion. Henley and Frey were (are still for all i know) ASSHOLES

  • absolutely amazing song.

  • love ya !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!

  • This song is seriously freaking good.

  • LEGENDS seen them at HAMPDEN 4th July greatest thing i've ever seen long live eagles

  • Comment removed

  • I´m from Sweden and I like this song very much (=

  • During the trailer scene, there is an empty chair in between Joe and Don Henley, supposedly for Don Felder. That pisses me off.

  • Felder was great! I met him last year in Calgary when he was on his book tour. He was fired for wanting an equal share - Don Henley is the bad guy, not Felder.

  • Equal share??.....and Henley's the bad guy??....please, could you keep felder in there and take out either Don or Glen and still be successfull?

  • That's beside the point. Felder got fucked out of what was/is rightly his. He won the court case convincingly and is today reaping a very healthy percentage from every single concert they've played since they started their "Farewell Tour". Frey and Henley are typical limousine liberal hypocrites who rail against corporate greed yet didn't hesitate to fuck someone they knew for years just so they could keep a little more for themselves. That is a stone cold fact. Way to go Felder!!!

  • Felder was in no way worth being paid equal, the worlds full of people that feel they are bigger than the group that made them famous.....Add Felders' name to lists that include David Caruso , Shelley Long, Peter Criss and Ace Frehley, all talented people that thought they deserved more.

  • How can you possibly say that when they (Frey, Henley, Felder, Meisner, Leadon) started out as equal 20% partners in Eagles Inc.???? The word "worth" has nothing to do with it, it's what he's rightfully OWED as a founding partner, nothing more nothing less. If anybody feels they are "bigger" than the group it 's Frey and Henley. Talk about egomaniacs....

  • @tripleheshy he did not win. Even without the case he was receiving his fair share of the game.

  • Same, Felder was their best guitarist, and one of the best in the world!

  • anzi no.....superlativi!!!

  • Joe Walsh still gettin' it done on the guitar break; harmonies are 1975-throwback-good. Must be like ridin' a bike for these guys.

  • THERE STILL GOOD ARNT THEY.

  • wow video is superb

  • As good as anything else they have ever done in my opinion but destined to be forgotten in favor of all thier 70's hits of course

  • yeah this is a good album

  • Another FINE TUNE penned by J.D. Souther...much as I love J.D., his version from the 70's is not as fine as this one by the Eagles...did you know this was written as a protest song?! Great version!

  • I've always thought that Henley has truly matured as a singer, and continue to believe that, but I'm beginning to see how much Glen has added to his packaging. He's GREAT to listen to!!! Just like the 'old days!'

  • they are really similiar to Brooks And Dunn

  • Yeah, on the new album and in musical style. To me, on past albums, they remind me more of Dire Straits with a bit of Floyd thrown in.

  • That must be minus the vocals (and the harmonies)!

  • because itunes sucks

  • why doesn't itunes have this video for sale?!!!

  • the eagles are the best group the music!

  • Damn, they're so old... But the new album's just AMAZING!

  • DavidLlewelynJones - "they're so old?" That just means that they have had more time to hone their skills and experiences to share with us mere mortals! Besides, if they don't do drugs, drink in excess or smoke tobacco, they should be around another 30 years. Can you picture that one!!!! I'm 60 and I'll fold up my rocker to see em' any day... But you're correct in saying their new album ROCKS! BUT, now they've had enough rest so 'BOYS - lets hear another one come out soon... please...

  • The first time I remember hearing an Eagles song is 2 years ago and the song was Hotel California. I've been hooked on them ever since.

  • That is EXACTLY MY SITUATION!!!!!! i swear!!

    The Eagles are... words can't even describe.

    they're second to the beatles in my opinion.

  • Welcome to the wonderful world of the EAGLES! You won't stop lovin their stuff, it only gets better, especially with you tube being here to show all the old stuff! Thanks You Tube!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Simply just fantastic musicvideo !

  • littlecaptain u r right.

    I LOVE EAGLES......................

    THEY PRODUCE AMAZING SOUNDS.

  • This is the only song I like on there LROOE album. Its good with Joe Walsh playing a great Duitar break. This Sounds like the Original Eagles sound. I hate the Trumpet, Saxes and helmet crap off their live tours these days. They Need Felder back!

  • Steuart Smith is a legendary guitarist in his own right, and has added his own incredible sound to the mix without losing the Eagles feel. Don't forget that Walsh isn't an original band member either.

    Give Smith a chance. I have seen him play live with Rodney Crowell and with Rosanne Cash on several occasions, and his playing gives me goosebumps.

  • well if your talking about Glenn Frey...FOR SURE he slept with your aunt!

  • my aunt went to school with the lead singer back in michigan. :) he went to their house once. haha. i just thought that was cool.

  • I saw them something like 5 years ago for the first time in my life. They were the band that I most had wanted to see. I actually cried it was just so good.

  • long life to the eagles

  • I LOVE the Eagles. My favorite band.

  • Great song!

  • nice. check out my hotel california improv solo over the backing track. let me know what you think!

  • Amazing.

    Saw them live last night, for the first time in my life. I was like on of the youngest persons there. :)

    Finally I got to see Henley, Walsh, Smith and Fray! Not to forget the other musicians there were.

    Although it was awesome, I think they can better stop after this tour. Henley's voice is just not as good as it used to be. Heartache Tonight was just terrible..

    5/5

  • don't forget they are 62 years old we were there also last night, and when you here the songs on cd or live there is almost no difference in sound great

  • Yes, some songs are just amazing. But, yesterday evening, songs such as Hotel California and Heartache Tonight, they don't sound as good as the used to sound.

  • They sounded perfect at gelredome in my opinion.

  • Live?

    Where?

  • At Gelredome, The Netherlands.

  • ROCK on

  • Wot a song!

  • According to Billboard Magazine, it reached no. 23 on the country chart, and the album reached no. 1 on the country album chart for 10 weeks. The Eagles also perfomed at Country Music Association Awards in 2007 & 2008. Ome people insists that they should be inducted in the Country Music hall of Fame since their influence to country rock sounds.

  • good song

  • i love this song, but i like the eagles as a rock group more

  • class

  • would anyone classify the Eagles as country? Because my retarded irish teacher a while back insisted that they were and i said otherwise.

    i would like to think of them more as a classical or classy rock, and not a country group. I dont care what websites say, i want to know what you think.

  • They're straight up SoCal Rock. There isn't a thing about them that falls into the country genre.

  • Thank you so much

  • they are NOT country, they are 70's rock.

  • Damn straight

  • They were originally a soft rock style, but, this song has more country leanings than rock. I guess they wanted try a country style, and looks like they made it.

    It doesn't really matter if you don't want to listen to the websites.

  • Their early work back when Bernie Leadon was on board is definitely more folk rock/country. Just listen to Desperado. Once Schmidt came on board they started going into a heavier rock sound and cemented it with the addition of Walsh.

  • I've been playing Eagles song on my guitar around campfires for almost 30 years! They're the BEST! And don't let anybody tell you different!

  • nothing like the Eagles.. Love this song.. great video too

  • rest is crap but this is a catchy tune!

  • This is one of my dad's favorite songs.I like it too.

  • Great Video. One of their best besides all their old stuff. Eagles are #1. They smoke the Beatles.

  • Dam universal owns almost every fkin song on youtube

  • at least they let us listen to their stuff - they're smart

    not like those fucktards at WMG, motherfuckin dumb dumb fuckers they are

  • love that opening line,"LIKE A BLUE BIRD WITH HIS HEART REMOVED, LONELY AS A TRAIN"!

  • when joe plays he goes off.lol

  • best dam harmonizing from a group that dont have to prove themselves

  • eagles are old but good

  • dont you hate it when you can see the freedom river but just cant get to it

  • my aunt owns a restaraunt ands wants me and my band to play songs like this there, but were only 14, and were not gonna find a kid that can sing like this, lol, any ideas for some songs we can play plzz?

  • "ive been doing time in a lonesome prison

    where the sun dont shine"

    my favourtie line

  • Joe's keeping it fresh and awesome. The others can still write and play, but their voice quality is dwindling...

  • thats true

  • They sound fanstatic for guys that are 60 years old plus!!!!

  • Hot damn! Love the Eagles! Listened to 'em from the cradle and will until the grave...NO BODY better!!

  • EXCELLENT!!!!

  • Hey guys, I think it's an esquire (no neck pick up). Whatever Joe's playing, it's a great track- sounds like an out take from "On The Border".

  • Great easy groovin tune!! Love it!!

  • It's a telecaster

  • For god sakes people lol its a fucken telecaster notice the one row of pickups its a fucken telecaster.

  • its a telecaster fool

  • the guy with the strat is an amazing guitarist. KEEP IT UP EAGLES!!!! W00T!

  • that just happens to be joe walsh and its a telecaster

  • yeah whatever, it looks like a strat

  • You can't expect him to know guitars if he doesn't know who joe walsh is LOL

  • First music vid I have ever seen where Joe keeps a straight face.

  • Actually if you watch it carefully (like I have a few times!) Joe does pull the same funny face twice.

    Once where they're in the hanger and the second when they're sitting around the campfire.

  • Watch him in other vids, that is a straight face for Joe, though he is awesome. They all are only getting better

  • OK so I grant you, compare to the times I saw them live at the O2 and twice in Chicago AND the photograph I took of Joe goofing around last year (Which all pics are posted on my facebook and myspace profile), I guess this is just about as normal as Joe gets, but it is still not as straight a face as he does on the HFO DVD. :D

  • 2:40 looks like a viagra commercial

  • this is old material, they re-recorded it for Long Road Out Of Eden...

  • son los mejores

  • ha ha it's true, "what you get is not quite what you choose"....!

  • Best Band since the 70's

  • damn good.i love hiphop and i dont know why i like this song

  • this is a snappy little number eh?

  • i liked this video :)

  • the end of the song sounds like a mcdonalds commercial lol

  • CAN SOMEONE PLEASE TALK TO ME

  • Long Road Out of Eden tour Houston, TX I was there, they still got it after all these years.

  • i love the eagles they r the best

  • Counterclaim: anal cunt

    just look them up and see the masterpiece that awaits you

  • you really have nothing better to do, huh?

  • whose the guy w/ the really long air, and whose the guy that said ive been doin time,

  • The guy with the long hair is Timothy B. Schmit and the guy that says "I've been doin time" is the one and only Don Henley.

  • Hell freezes over!! JW doing a guitar solo with a straight face!

  • Hail Victory!! Tell Them!!!!!!!

  • Excellent cover to the original version.

  • cool song

  • I was unaware this was one of their earlier songs. I like this one better.

  • ummmm....... this was released on Long Road Out Of Eden in 2007

  • The song was performed by the band in the early 70's, only released in 2007.

  • I think the eagles amazing. Only band in history last all these years. Only inproved with age. Sell out. Seen the 3 times already totally outstanding band . I love them,. Rock on!!!!!!!

  • this was an amazing song to start off their new album. Great vid as well. cant believe its taken me this long to find it since ive had the album since it first came out. oh well :P

    rock on guys!! :P

  • Man, nothing like the Eagles. Totally love this. They rock!!

  • LOVE THEM AND THE SONG

  • yeah, this is one of my favorites, one can see that they enjoyed making this video. Joe, you're one of the best.

    frozenXfruit.....i hate country as well but like u i love this song.

    turntablesi...u r definitely right.

    Can somebody tell me if they're having a concert in Germany?

  • awesome cover by The Eagles J.D Souther actually wrote and performed the song first but The Eagles do it better

  • I HATE country, but I LOVE this song!!!

  • great song!!

  • But this is a good song. Can't deny that!

  • should be called the godfathers of rock !

    brilliant

  • AMAZING BAND AMAZING SONG XXX

  • awesome uno they r country now, but i love country annd classic rock, so either way, lol they still kick ass!

  • we need more good music like this it never puts people in a bad mood or talks about bad things

  • The best song ever!

  • I'm sure that made sense to someone. But if God slaps Madonna for her execrable cover version of American Pie I may even start believing in him.

  • ha ha ha.good stuff.thanx to J.D. souther."TAKE IT EASY" part 2.if you like this song or country-rock then buy the POCO CD "THE FORGOTTEN TRAIL" 1969-1974.without POCO there would be no EAGLES.trust me people.RANDY MEISNER and TIMOTHY SCHMIT were both ex-POCO.

  • Great song! Of course they still have talent. What blows me away is that their voices sound so great after all these years.

  • Eagles and Bon Jovi prove one thing: If your career needs a boost, go country.

  • But the Eagles were already part-country... Still so true though

  • After almost 40 years in the business they prove that they still got the talent.

  • Awesome song. i just saw the eagles on the 14th. what a GREAT concert! these guys are legends!

  • excellent song thats my baby daughters song a played it first in car when a left hospital amazing band x

  • fucking A! cool song!! makes me want to buy a six pack of beers & dance! any ladies wanna join, Im only 23, and i like older women ;)
