Thank you, Dreamer! Very interesting! Just for grins, I highlighted in red the ones on the setlist this past spring and last fall.

I was surprised when looking at everyone else's selection that I wasn't the only one to omit Hotel California.

I was also surprised to find that 9 of the songs in my list made the top twenty.

Thanks Dreamer for all the work you did for us!!!

The biggest surprise for me is the popularity of Already Gone (and New Kid In Town). I am also gratified to see No More Cloudy Days there given that it wasn't on my list; it hovers just below it. Also it is interesting that a couple of songs which the band persist in playing, none of which are anywhere near my Top 20, did not fare that well overall. I refer to The Long Run, In The City & How Long. While I like How Long there are many superior tracks the band should play instead.

The biggest discrepancy between me & the preferences of many people is that I also don't have Desperado, TITTL, ICTYW & especially LWKUA anywhere near my Top 20. I thought BOML would rank higher.

Only 1 of my songs didn't make the list & that would be "Try & Love Again" How did that not make the list???? I see plenty of songs on there that don't even come close to that song!!! I'm shocked!! I need a DRINK

I only see five people who voted for it. It was an honourable mention for me. It's in my Top 30.

Where is "Those Shoes"?! I can't believe "No More Walks in the Wood" is even on this list, much less beating "Good Day in Hell" and "Those Shoes"!

I'm not surprised three of my other favorites - "My Man," "Too Many Hands," and "Out of Control" - didn't make it, though.

Even if it's in dead last, I'm glad Learn To Be Still made it.

I'm not too surprised with the final results although I was surprised on how HC wasn't on everyone's Top 20 list - but I'm biased. When I think Eagles that's the first song that comes to mind - that's their signature song especially of the "classic rock" era, where as TIE is their signature song of the "country-country rock" era. I figured HC and TIE would be the top two but was surprised HC was 2nd. Again, I'm a bit partial to that song but it just seems weird that anyone could be an Eagles fan and not LOVE HC!!! That's what makes these polls so exciting - it's very interesting and all as you see everyone's different in their tastes.
