    Thanks for posting that, tf. A nice positive interview, and I like the interviewer's description of It's Your World Now.

    Great find, tf. Hmmm - I can't wait to see what the ticket prices will be for the Farewell XII shows.

    Very nice, but as Glenn was only quoted once, I suspect that he wasn't actually interviewed.

    A couple of excerpts from Great American Country's website--GAC.com:

    January 28, 2008 — The Eagles' Don Henley and Glenn Frey are so well-respected as songwriters that they were inducted eight years ago into the Songwriters Hall of Fame. But that doesn't mean the job comes easy. Their current single, "Busy Being Fabulous," is a perfect case in point.

    "That was my song, my title," Don says. "I got about half of it written, and then I got stuck, and then Glenn came in and helped me finish it. I'd almost given up on it, frankly. I just said, 'This is not that good. I can't do it.'"

    Thanks for posting that! I still think it was partially inspired by Stevie.

    Soda, I know that was tongue in cheek and I know you said 'partially' but....

    I've said before that I think Don is capable of writing about other women than Stevie Nicks. The lyrics specifically refer to the woman's family, something Stevie Nicks has never had.

    And as I've said before, I too believe Don is capable of writing about some other woman than Stevie. I'll never understand why you insist on misrepresenting my viewpoint every time this subject comes up, always implying that I can't conceive of him writing about any other woman.

    As you admit, I used the word "partially" inspired, which means she is one of several inspirations - and he says as much himself - that the song is an amalgam of several people. Is it really terribly unrealistic to speculate she might be one of those people? No, she does not have a family - hence partially inspired - but did Don even write that part? I was under the impression Glenn was the one who wrote most of the verses.

    Can you not even allow for the possibility?
