Re: If you could ask Don to sing any non-Eagles song in a solo show, what would it be
Mine are slightly more left field - A Month Of Sundays or Damn It, Rose.
I've seen him do Heart Of The Matter with the Eagles in 1995. I was lucky, I guess.
Other choices for me would be:
Talking To The Moon
The Last Worthless Evening
Miss Ghost
Lilah
The End Of The Innocence
Re: If you could ask Don to sing any non-Eagles song in a solo show, what would it be
Ohh, there are so many! The first ones that come to mind though, are The Heart Of The Matter and Talking To The Moon. Previous posters have accurately summed up my feelings about these two songs
If covers are included, I'd kill to see Don perform Too Far Gone and Come Rain Or Come Shine live. Stunning!
FP, I'm so glad you mentioned A Month Of Sundays. I love that song.
you better put it all behind you, baby, 'cause life goes on
you keep carrying that anger, it'll eat you up inside--

There are so many songs!
The first one I think of is Heart Of The Matter.
The second one is Long Way Home.
So that will be the songs I will ask..
Let somebody love you, before it's too late..
Re: If you could ask Don to sing any non-Eagles song in a solo show, what would it be
Okay – I am going to add to the list of songs that I would love to see Don perform live. Much to my chagrin, I have never seen a Don solo show. Although I am going to jump at the chance to do this the next time he comes anywhere close to me, I wish he would change up his live setlist a bit. I realized in reviewing the list from some of his more recent solo shows that I have seen him perform about 2/3’s of the songs in Eagles shows. As with Glenn, I couldn’t keep this list to ten songs, and I would be very happy to have a concert of all Don’s solo work. My list does not include ‘Taking You Home’, which I previously said was my No. 1 choice. These are in no particular order, but, IMHO, this would make for an awesome show:
1. Long Way Home
2. Nobody's Business
3. Talking To the Moon
4. Them and Us
5. Lilah
6. Drivin' With Your Eyes Closed
7. The End of the Innocence
8. The Last Worthless Evening
9. New York Minute
10. The Heart of the Matter
11. They're Not Here, They're Not Coming
12. My Thanksgiving
13. You Don't Know Me At All
14. Everybody Knows
15. Leather and Lace (would necessitate the appearance of a very special guest)

Fantastic list, Dreamer! I would add "For My Wedding"-love that song!
Mrs. H, your AV is lovely!
Re: If you could ask Don to sing any non-Eagles song in a solo show, what would it be
Dreamer, that's another good list, but why Them & Us? Is it a favourite of yours?
I know Don once sang American Tune by Paul Simon. I think that would be perfect. He also did the Beatles' Yes It Is. How about Yesterday? He would nail that so perfectly.
Re: If you could ask Don to sing any non-Eagles song in a solo show, what would it be
Okay, I wouldn't ask Don to sing one of his songs. I just love "Believe" from the movie "Polar Express" and I would give a lot to hear Don perform that song
Re: If you could ask Don to sing any non-Eagles song in a solo show, what would it be
FP, speaking of Beatles songs, I think Don would do an awesome job on "If I Fell" and also "Nowhere Man". I would love to hear him sing, "Yes it is" and "Yesterday" also!
Re: If you could ask Don to sing any non-Eagles song in a solo show, what would it be
I find these choices for Don covering Beatles songs very interesting. Now, this is a broad generalization, but I think of Glenn's voice more suited to cover McCartney songs like Yesterday, Let It Be, or The Long and Winding Road and Don's voice more suited to cover Lennon songs. A few that come to mind that Don would do justice to, IMHO, are I Feel Fine, All You Need Is Love, Revolution, The Ballad of John and Yoko, Come Together, and Imagine.
