Eagles Song Survivor: One of These Nights

[sodascouts]

I'm still shocked no votes for TMH

I'm not surprised at all there's no votes yet for "Too Many Hands" - that song smokes, IMHO! It really rocks - hot guitar, and great vocal by Randy. I love the way he sings "But you won't hear a sound as she turns around!"

I'm with you sodascouts. Love that song and the screaming guitars!

[Troubadour]

I always underestimate how difficult these Survivor games will be! I just had to go back and listen to three of the songs in order to make this decision. I cast my vote for Visions. I like Felder's vocal, I like the song in general, but it's just not quite up there with the others, for me. I now know which song I will vote for next, though.

For the purposes of discussion... I couldn't vote for Journey Of The Sorcerer yet. I love it. I had an experience a few months back, where my itunes was playing random songs. I was re-entering the room and this awesome, galloping piece of music was playing. I had one of those weird moments where I knew that I knew the song, I just couldn't think what it was! When I looked at my computer and saw 'Eagles', of course I remembered, but I was also kind of surprised that it was them. I'd heard that song in a completely new light. It was like I'd been whisked off on horseback across vast plains for a couple of minutes! I do have a bit of a soft spot for Bernie's stuff.

Let's just say there's a reason why Felder never sang lead on more than one Eagles song...

I cast my vote for Visions.

This got it started off right, Soda! You're a funny girl!

Hey folks, as usual I am going to withhold my vote for now. However, I want to encourage everyone to consider Journey of the Sorcerer for elimination here. I am shocked it hasn't received any votes yet. It's not that it's a bad song, but to me it is very 'out-of-sync' with the most of the other songs on this album. It is also a little too long for my liking, which has the effect of making it somewhat repetitious. Just my two cents.

Dreamer, there's my long lost sister! Exactly what I was thinking reading the first votes. WT_?!

I think all of you are on drugs if you think JOTS is better than Visions! (JK)

JOTS sticks out like a sore thumb on this album, and although it seems like a lost cause to vote for it with all of the votes already posted for Visions, I cast my vote for Journey Of The Sorcerer.

Pm, loved that! And of course, I agree!

Hmmmmm. I may have to vote for something else, just to rock the boat.......

Nah, not yet. I vote for Journey Of The Sorcerer. One of the worst Eagles songs EVER!

That made me laugh

.....but, I love JOTS, I can't remember if I bought OOTN when it came out in '75 or later - but I do remember JOTS being the music for "Hitch Hikers Guide To The Galaxy" in '78 and I loved the music and the series then!

[sodascouts]

Yeah, we can't forget that!

Looks like Visions is on it's way out. I will admit, I thought JOTS would be first to go. Now I'm more confused... wow, no votes for OOTN? Just kidding folks! I may pull a dreamer this round and vote stategically... since the bottom of my list are all pretty even.

Also, I love how many people are participating in this game. It really is a good mix! I wonder how it'll pan out...

[Brooke]

Yeah, I really thought JOTS would go first, too.

You know, I really like a couple of the lines in Visions. I think Don Henley would have sounded a lot better on it. Who knows!

[sodascouts]

I do like the line "If I can't have it all, just a taste will do." I don't like the line "Play on El Chingadero!" Talk about having to be on drugs to include something... lol

Being a relatively new Eagles fan, I'm not familiar with all of the songs on OOTN, but one listen of 'Visions' was enough for me to make up my mind on my first choice to go.

I vote for 'Visions'.
