Re: This or That :Non-Eagles music
Hold me. I think it's slightly catchier and I like the democratic (it sounds) backing vocals.

Colourful novelty songs: Itsy-Bitsy Teeny Weeny Yellow Polka Dot Bikini or The Purple People Eater?
Re: This or That :Non-Eagles music
"Polka Dot Bikini" - it reminds me of those whimsical Frankie Avalon/Annette Funicello beach movies.
Forbidden dance movie soundtracks: Footloose or Dirty Dancing?
Re: This or That :Non-Eagles music
I'll go with Footloose just because I like the the title song.

"Ride" songs: Free Ride by Edgar Winter or Let It Ride by Bachman Turner Overdrive?

Re: This or That :Non-Eagles music
Those are both great songs. BTO is a band that I have/had the greatest hits of, but never ventured further into their catalogue.
It took some thought, but I think that Free Ride just shades it, with its more interesting guitary arrangements. But, both are great songs.

Prog rock bands in proggy periods. Early/mid 70s Yes or early/mid 70s Genesis?
Re: This or That :Non-Eagles music
Early/mid 70s Genesis, who for me reached their absolute zenith around Selling England By The Pound, although I'm more familiar with Peter Gabriel and co than I am with Yes of the same era.

1990s live albums by legendary bands: The Dance by Fleetwood Mac or P.U.L.S.E by Pink Floyd?
Re: This or That :Non-Eagles music
The Dance

"Weekend" songs: Saturday's Alright for Fighting by Elton John or Sunday Bloody Sunday by U2?

Sunday Bloody Sunday - U2

Western film theme songs: The Magnificent Seven Theme - Elmer Bernstein or Il Buono, Il Cattivo, Il Brutto (The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly) Main Title - Ennio Morricone?
Sorry for the long title, but I copied it from its Spotify listing. It's the song that plays in the title sequence at the beginning of the latter.
Re: This or That :Non-Eagles music
Both are superb pieces of music but GBU is more avant garde & is my choice.

Lindsey Buckingham: Go Your Own Way or I'm So Afraid?
Re: This or That :Non-Eagles music
"Go Your Own Way"

Solo Beatles 'comparison' albums: John Lennon's "Walls and Bridges" or Paul McCartney's "Venus and Mars"?
All carrot, no stick.
"He's just another power junkie, just another silk scarf monkey. You'd know it if you saw his stuff. The man just isn't big enough."--Glenn Frey/Don Henley
"You think you know me, but you haven't got a clue."--John Lennon/Paul McCartney
Re: This or That :Non-Eagles music
Closer than many would say. Lyrically Walls and Bridges, Musically Venus and Mars. I think V&M just shades it as it's more of a band album. I like the vocals from Denny Laine (Spirits of Ancient Egypt) and Jimmy McCullough (Medicine Jar) and that V&M includes more musical variety, from rockers (E.g. Letting Go) to novelty songs (You Gave Me The Answer.)
