Pardon me, but the first 45 seconds of this remix is extraneous and frankly, it is garbage.

The rest is great.

BTW, the #1 song of 1975, not surprising.

Don Henley, the pride of Cass County, Texas, not too far from my old stomping grounds,

and with Don Henley playing his music, a lot of people were stomping around.

The best straight rocker song in history. I thought so when I heard it in 1972, and my

opinion has never changed. Nothing like it since. One hit wonder? This one hit is a wonder.

I always think of my high school football team back in the early to mid-1970s when I hear this tune. The band would play it late in the game when it was certain that the team would lose the game. We couldn't stop loving our team and school.

For my 16th birthday, I specifically asked my parents for a copy of the new album just released by Black Oak Arkansas called "High on the Hog" which included this song which had been advertised on TV for several weeks. I like BOA for its own merits and do not compare it to other artists. That i...

Can you see Justine Bieber or Lady Gaga trying to sing this song? This type of song and this type of talent is way out of their league.

Isn't that some of the greatest saxophone music in a rock song?

Man, I almost wish that I could have stayed sixteen forever.

Just enjoy the song, people. It is about a man in pain not about philosophical or theological speculation. For the man who threw up when he was reading the Bible, stay off of the Mexican food if you cannot handle it.

We could also identify idiots a lot more quickly back then.

Beer and Eagles fans just do not mix.

Interesting that Kapp is in a Vikings jacket since he never played for the Vikings again. He was traded to the Boston Patriots just before the 1970 season.

It is NFL Films showing this material over 40 years later, not AFL Films.

Good Grief!! Please No!!! These uniforms look terrible.

As one writer of the time put it, "thankfully for the Chargers, the Bears were not particularly interested."

Homefield Advantage did not start until 1975. The leagues rotated the home field in the playoffs; it was pre-determined before the season even started.

Die, Eagles, Die

On the Road to Misery

Run through that line

and get knocked all the way to Jersey

Get hit high, get hit low

Those Eagles, they sure blow (big chunks)

Die, Eagles, Die

on the road to misery

E-A-G-L-E-S!!! LOSERS!!!

Thank you, Mr. Obvious, for your reductionist observation. You have enlightened us.

Richtig. Aber die Lied is sehr langsam.

Old joke made about every rock band that ever had members with long hair, which includes about 80% before 1990.

I wish that I was in my teens again with only one difference: that the music of my teens could still be this type of music, no Lady Garbage and this other nonsense.

Remember Alan Dahl and "Disco Demolition Night" in Chicago, 1979?

In August of 1974, my little brother drove me crazy playing this song over and over. He was only five years old and loved the sirens, I guess.

Yes sir, summer of 1975. Memories of a two week singing camp in the heat of the Texas Hill Country, a hayride with a girl for my first date (with a girl that is), baseball, and this song being played over and over on a .45 rpm. It, indeed, was the B side of Magic and one of the best flipsides i...

I sang this Requiem with my college choir over 32 years ago. It all came back to me including the Latin.

@santibarna The really intelligent person does not come into anything with a reductionist view. Musicians did not just use religion as incidental subject matter for their compositions. That is a very cynical and simplistic view. For example, Bach was a very devoted Lutheran and signed his comp...

Thanks kid, since I was born in 1958, you make me feel young again.

My cousin drove me crazy all throug the Summer of 1970 singing this song.

Just about every junior high kid in my school used to beat this song out on the lid of their desks with two fingers. It was part of our rite of passage 40 years ago.

My high school band played this song for years, usually in the fourth quarter of a game as the seconds ticked away. It is a powerful tune that triggers memories of crisp, cold Friday nights, beautiful girls, and young men's dreams.

I came here to listen to see if this piece was on youtube and to listen to it. I graduated from Liberty-Eylau in Texarkana, TX in 1976. Wow! This is the school fight song.
