WalshFan88, I never got the impression that you were saying Joe was the sole reason for their success. But it is considerate to think of the possibility that someone was offended.

No offence taken here, Austin!
Some of the lyrics may be questionable but I would rather hear GYITM than Tryin', Earlybird or Nightingale, thanks.
I love Nightengale and Tryin...
Get You In The Mood, hmmm not so much can't even dance to it.
Except for the questionable lyrics that FP mentions, I like GYITM.
I like it, too. That's partly because it's an early Eagles song that I'd never heard but also because it's so different from their other work and it's in a style that I like. I even have a soft spot for the dodgy lyrics. It's an early appearance of a common theme in Glenn's songs - wanting a girl who loves someone else - except instead of trying to win her over with declarations of love and friendship he's promising to make her "feel so good". Before she knows it, he'll be telling her they could "Chug all night"! It may not be the most romantic approach but it has a certain youthful appeal.
I just can't get on with "Hole in the World" , appreciate the sentiment and why it was recorded. I just don't know what it is, it just does not work for me.
"The great unconscious urban masses , with narrow minds and spreading asses..."
Oh, wow! Hole In the World is one of my favorites! I listen to it pretty often. It says all the things I wanted to say, and having the comfort of Eagles harmonies that no one else can reproduce makes it that much better. I know I've written on this board a few places about my feelings about that day, and for me, just about everything I believe in and stand for was attacked that day. My country, my religion, my way of life, and not in that order. There were a few songs written about that day and I like the ones I know about. Hearing our guys sing HITW helped the healing process for me. I'm not sure why, they just did, and I can't thank them enough for writing it and singing it.
