  • Randy Meisner had one of the greatest voices in music. Too bad they couldn't fit two bass players in the Eagles. TS is also a great singer. But this is perhaps my favorite Eagles song. Randy hits notes towards the end that only he can hit.

  • Taking it to the limit for my dad. I love this song. I feel close to him every time I hear it.

  • 2:03 to 2:13 still takes my breath away.

    Maybe I will .....

  • man the 1st verse really hits home for me it some up my life so far in a way much better than i could ever do, thank you eagles

  • jesus if I hear about someones funeral one more fucking time I think i'll top myself

  • @sprintersacre1 get on that shit bitch

  • Freakin' awesome. I remember when I was a teenager my father and step-mom had a party at their house and were playing disco music (Good God, the Humanity!). My brother and I managed to sneak "Eagles Greatest Hits" on the turntable. The party ground to a halt but me and my bro were in heaven listening to it start to finish.

  • my dad showed me the eagles and i love it

  • @DustinSevinVH10 ..Mine to..so glad he did ..he passed away this pass july..and its still hard for me to listen to them..but I am slowly trying.. i am goin to pass these music on to my kids..he tried to and they loved it when he spent time with them ;)

  • @melispa75 Good for you.  Good for you. This music is ageless.

  • @DustinSevinVH10 Same here haha.

  • Love this so much

  • Sorry, theBassman62. Only ten years out...

  • Yep, I agree with theBassman52. Glen Frey sings this now but Randy Meisner (this version) had the most beautiful voice. It's even better on their "Live" album, causing a band member to say "Good God, Randy" at the end of his performance.

  • We played this as the close to my Da's funeral for multiple reasons, possibily the foremost being we grew up on this as part of our staple diet of good music :-). one of the many things I will always be grateful to him for, love you always..... oiche mha ma ta xx

  • Fabulous song sung by the best vocalist the Eagles ever had.

  • this music remembersme when I was in canada 15 years ago,its the main simbol of peacefull people. the beauty of an developed country.

  • Beautiful - and oh, the memories too!

  • Yeah,this song reminds me of my dad.We lost him in 2005,and i can't even listen to"Come Sail Away"by Styx without shedding tears.He use to play all these songs on the guitar.I'm sure he's smiling down on me every time i play these classics.

  • Randy just has a voice for this song!!!

  • The finest of all Eagles songs..In my opinion.

  • Absolutely superb music. And if your so young that you cant take the time to listen... well just know its what your stuff was built on........ like anything before you were here!

  • Excellent. Vote here for the Eagles. - Zach Jonesmay Online!

  • Randy!!!

  • my father got me into the Eagles, great music

  • My grandma Was a 70's Stoner and was until the day she died, she showed me great music..... RIP Grandma 10/31/11

  • just class

  • Absolute perfection,and for those non believers play it again and actually listen to it..properly. :)

  • just beautiful

  • I have seen the Eagles probably 25 times since 74. To hear Glenn Frey sing this song is embarrasing. Walsh and Schmidt are great but I just love the 72-75 Eagles .

  • I don't why I love this song,but thank you for sharing .

  • brilliant song, one in a million!

  • my radio brought me here

  • My body moves with every note. I'm lucky I'm writing this. I certainly did and they were good times.

  • My calculus teacher in HS played this song when referring to "taking a function to the limit." It's four years later, and still every time I hear this song I think about math. Thanks a lot, teacher.

  • can't seem to settle down, so put me on a highway. show me a sign and take it, to the limit, one more time....

    i miss the world

  • @angel2rx You are good at math.

  • @redfordforpresident

    lol, what?

    anyway, thanks for the giggle this morning.

  • i love my dad. without him, i would have fucked a lot of shit up in my life. If i grow up to be half the man he is, I'll be twice the man of most

  • Love em

  • i took it to the limit for years have to stop now hahaha

  • me to ...thanks to my dad i love the eagles from the age of 16!!! x

  • Im 60 and passed on stuff to my son and he adores stuff like this... and I like Akon hhehehe thats sharing I guess

  • The sad part is my dad didn't even send me here.

    .___.

  • i have to admit, no matter how much i love this original, i still prefer the Waylon & Willie Cover.

  • "I was thinkin' bout a woman.' Yeh, nursing a Jack and Coke after a hard week, I'm often left remembering and the remembering gets harder as the years go on. I'm still stuck with Angie in my brain. I'm still stuck on that S.W Florida beach, May of 77 with Angie and the scene won't exit my brain. It's haunting. It's glaringly empty. It's a memory I'd never give up even as it still overtakes me again. Just like the refrain, "one more time..."

  • 6 people DON'T LIKE THIS?? SMH

  • Beautiful! Thanks!

  • Dude... my dad showed me this group when I started talking!! :) i remember the first day too. he looked at me and said... if your going to start talking, then you need to know the good words to speak of... and this was the first song I ever heard :D love you dad...

  • They just can't get this song right since Randy left! Glenn tries....but it's a lame attempt, as witnessed on the farewell I tour from Melbourne!

  • I'm playing eagles songs with my dad!! You all should try if you have a chance.

  • Favorite song of all time. Thanks for posting.

  • today would have been my Daddy's 72nd birthday and of course the Eagles songs could have been written about him. RIP DOD

  • Will start with this U TUBE FUCK U do u make CBS or your other bitches enter codes for exspressing the FIRST ADMENDMENT the only reason you prosper!, you sell out fucks...........Hide behind tax laws, abuse the law and put it on the person who posts quite nice, Scum fuckining nerds Couldn't be lawyers, but know many.

    You are the undoing of Capitalism, sadly. Idiots. What happened to Rome,

    Pensions, Technology top heavy government.

    GREED. I won't be here but it will happen

  • yay, randy!!

  • OMG did everyones Dad leave them with the Eagles - what great Dads we all have, so glad I have still got mine - teaching him bout Pearl Jam and all sorts of other stuff and hes loving it!!

  • @benjesolems my Mom introduced me to the Eagles. Now I've got her listening to Kid Rock!

  • @benjesolems When I was little my Dad always put in his Eagles CD so I could sing it with him and now all the music I listen too now is Eagles, Beatles, Rolling Stones, Aerosmith, AC/DC, Nirvana, Queen, Cheap Trick, Alice Cooper, Black Sabbath, Bob Seger, Bon Jovi. But I will always remember to thank my Dad for showing me all the music he grew up on.

  • @benjesolems My dad, too!! He taught me to love all kinds music. All the way from 30s to 90s and every decade in between. :)))

  • @benjesolems ,this song reminds me of my dad so much, think its

    because he only could remember /sing the song title, Thanks for posting.

    God Bless

  • @benjesolems Mine actually left me with Hank Williams and Ernest Tubb and the like. Found The Eagles all on my own. :-)

  • I miss my Daddy so much! Wish he could see how much I'm hurting. All I want is him back. Xxxxxxxxx

  • @AGKeith Bless you darling. It's hard I know. Find things that put a smile on your face love. Cos that's all we've all got to do - to keep going on. Keep the Eagles playing love xx

  • Randy does not get enough credit for this bands success

  • Love this Group Love this Song! This music takes me back to being a kid and we used to visit all my Aunts and Uncles so my parents could drink together and we could play....THOSE WERE THE GOOD OLE' DAYS.

  • "so put me on a highway and show me a sign" my most favorite lines in ANY song this song means alot as well as the eagles themselves

  • my dad's song

  • 'I was thinkin' bout a woman.." Okay, I've had a JD and Coke today and I'm still living in the past, thinkin' about that one damned woman who won't leave my mind: Annette. She and I went out the whole year of '78. She was a junior,; I was a senior and stupidly I thought it'd never end. I did think we'd take it to the limit; then I went to U. of F. She wrote me four letters and the last said that she was now going out with Josh M. I still tear up every time this f'kng song comes on.

  • @jeff62rey how sweet just think how happy she would be to know :)

  • this song is only one of many great songs by the eagles, i can't believe only 168,000 hits!

  • I was working as a waitress back then and all they played was the EAGLES .and Elton John ,I will always remember thoes days and times when i was care-free.

  • My dad and I went to an Eagles concert in Cincinnati for my 16th birthday a couple years ago...I don't know how much money he spent, but he managed to get first row seats. I've seen U2, Bob Seeger, Bruce Springsteen, Journey, Foreigner, Styx, .38 Special, Def Leppard, ZZ Top, Brooks and Dunn, Jimmy Eat World, Toby Keith, and many more, and there is no one, and I mean NO ONE, that sounds better than the Eagles do live. It was spectacular.

  • miss you dad, you always did have the best taste in music, i didn't understand then, but now i do.

  • @trichromez please don't make me cry..

  • @trichromez i no how u feel my dad loved music like you i understand now x

  • @trichromez

    i am positive is about ...one thing in this life...you're dad loved you more than you will ever know...

    trust me on that please....

  • @trichromez BLESS YOU HUN *BIG HUGS* XX

  • @trichromez So sweet xoxo :) 

  • @trichromez My Dad left me his Red Foley album, the one with Old Shep on it.

  • you dont need to be old to like this song, legend

  • Jim Rose's favorite group!

  • amazing song, but the Glen Frey version is better

  • Someone needs to put the Live version of Randy singing this in Houston back up. Every time it's put on here, Eagles Recording Co. blocks it due to copyright. the same with any live version of Hotel California....Greed is a bitch!

  • @MultiBaldEagle Thanks, Capitalism! (Note dripping sarcasm) :)

  • Thanks 4 upload

  • dont talk...just listen............btw mixed upmusician ur not wrong

  • dont talk...just listen............

  • The Greatest Music ever Made from the Generation that changed the World!You Go,Boomers!  Peace.

  • Thanks great song

  • my dad is like the biggest fan of the eagles and i always thougt he was insane but the eagles had a concert in my country and my dad took me there and now i understand him now i fkn love the eagles.

  • One of my favorites. Beautiful. Nadine:)

  • I can still smell the bars , from way back, when I hear this. Good times.

  • my favorite eagles song. the live version on the 1980 double album is transcendent. all four of my kids, even the 2 year old, sing along when we listen.

  • How anybody could dislike this music is incredible - it brings back so many memories. It's nice to listen to this now and understand why I loved it so much back then.

  • 4 people really should tend to what they know... like eating twinkies and drinking chocolate milk or something

  • You were blessed with a family that both loved both you and music. What a lucky soul! cherish it.

  • Four people dont know good music. the end.

  • @Scankers I HEAR YOU

  • lost my virginity to this song, my girlfriend wanted to play hip hop i said "fuuuckkk that, im taking it to the limit, then turned on this song" best night ever!

  • Been humming this song all day. The Eagles are music gods!

  • @DimebagJim420 YES THEY ARE!!

  • Last song I ever sang to my Grandmother was this one. Every time I hear it now, I've just made a major decision in my life and this song would come on the radio or be next in rotation on my I-pod. I figure its Granny's way of letting me know she's with me and supporting me. Damn, I sure do miss her.

  • @TheHippiechick64 awwwwww im sorry :(

  • @TheHippiechick64 That's awesome!!!

  • EAGLES 4 LIFE

  • This song is so me right now....

    

  • how can anyone NOT like the Eagles? Blasphemy, I tell you! That's what that is... pure and total blasphemy... how tragic.  I suppose if you think the crap on mtv is better then you have no soul because THIS is GOOD MUSIC and always will be. Thumbs up :)

  • I liked the part where he said take it to the limit

  • What a beautiful song!! My most favorite by the Eagles.

  • take it to the limit, one more time...

  • Brings back some memories. Thank yo u, AmericanAirlinesRule! :-)

  • 3 people are some obvious desperados in need of a peaceful easy feeling from some life in the fast lane and a stay at the hotel california ;)

  • The Eagles are Fantastic

  • I am just coming back from Eagles concert in Munich at Königsplatz, the accustic and

    atmosphare was just heartbreaking with fantastic weather. These artists did their best

    to satisfy their fans and they make good job out of it. 26.06. 2011, entrance at 20:00 h.

    Concert beginn at 20:45h, they were just out of space. Khushy100, Mubarak.

  • @TheSilentDorito

    Lets hope you go back to being silent....:)

  • @Jakker27 Lets hope you go back to living with your mom

  • @TheSilentDorito "Maybe" one day you will understand what great music sounds like. It's a beautiful thing when you know what to listen to. The Eagles ARE in my opinion the greatest American bands ever. They have been writing, producing, and singing songs that are known the world over. And this is as great a rock ballad as you could ever find.

    YOu must be somewhere between 16 & 20 years of age with an arrested mind and ear for usic,

    One day I hope you will find it.

  • @LordofDublin4  Eagles are the best band ever :) to me. Wish I could see them in concert before they decide to stop performing altogether. *sigh* I was born in the wrong era

  • Comment removed

  • *holds up lighter*

  • my fav from the eagles

  • It's AMAZING how they are still so good live performers, went on their concert in Iceland and it was FANTASTIC!! <3

  • what an epic piece of music

  • There are few songs I like a lot, but this one I think is the best forever.

  • So dreamy and relaxing. This and Desperado are their best soulful songs.

  • One of the best songs by the Eagles. Although swept under the rug, Randy Meisner was the only one who could sing it like it should be sung as heard in this version!

  • Amazing, this is one of those songs you hear and never knew who sung then one day stumble across the eagles in all their glory ^_^

  • Heh, guess dad really did know his music...

  • @pziebold Yes, he sure did.

  • @pziebold damn straight
