Don Henley - That Old Flame (Audio) ft. Martina McBride

[@muamelanie]

I just saw my ex fiancé for the first time in over 20 years last week. We sat outside of a coffee shop for almost 2 hours. It felt just like we were 20 years younger and still dating. I had not anticipated I'd feel the same as I once had. And didn't expect to feel the chills when he reached out to touch my neck or ran his fingers through my hair. It took all my strength not to show that still did something to me. The greatest love, and the biggest heartbreak of my life. I'm grateful we could have that hour and a half together. It means more to me than any amount of money. To feel the warmth of his presence again. I didn't realize how much I missed that. Or him.

[@antiquenotdead7]

I KNOW it would be the same for me if I met my first love again. We were torn apart to different continents without warning when my family relocated after a “vacation” that we never returned from. 37 yrs later, I still get goosebumps just thinking of him. That type of love leaves a connection that remains no matter what time or place you find yourself in. I wish him nothing but the best in life.

[@muamelanie]

@@antiquenotdead7 people say "first love" often, but sometimes it truly is the first time that you have felt that kind of connection and chemistry. And it's heartbreaking when something causes it to end. Yours seems so drastic, suddenly moving so far away!!! Mine ended because he had joined the army and his dad pulled some strings to get him into special opps... he wanted to do computers. He didn't know what was going to happen for him, had no idea when I could move with him and didn't want to put either of us through the waiting.

[@jimmorgan2536]

I wrote a song about the experience you just described a few years ago...unfortunately it didn't happen it was just something I dreamed

[@muamelanie]

@@jimmorgan2536 really?

[@vinnyfahy3222]

I am 64 and love all kinds of music, have done all my life but this guy & the Eagles just blow me away . Love it .

[@douglasmeckley1592]

+Vinny Fahy I have to agree.

[@Georgiaboy43]

+Vinny Fahy I'm 72 and know exactly what you mean. Got the album :-)

[@invertedbob]

+Vinny Fahy 63 here. Vinny, we made it thru woodstock. It will never be duplicated. Don Henley, The Eagles, Bob Seger, they just don't make anymore of that talent. In a way it is a shame. But really it is legend. These guys rock today like they did in their beginning.

[@marieuklover7457]

+invertedbob Henley's voice is as clear and crisp as ever. I was in Row 4 and he did not have music blasting to scream and cover up errors. His pitch was great. I am still in love after all these years.

[@invertedbob]

+Marie UkLover How cool is that. I saw the Eagles when they first started touring again and just loved it.

[@Tueddelkopp62]

Don, eine lebende Legende mit unverwechselbarer Stimme👍 und Martina auch phantastisch. Habe sie hier in Deutschland das erste Mal im Duett mit Bob Seger wahrgenommen.....! Wer bei diesem Titel hier keine Lust bekommt zu tanzen, dem ist nicht mehr zu helfen!

[@susangraham171]

There will never be a group like the Eagles. Even with Glenn Frey gone, Deacon Frey and Vince Gill sounded great! But Don Henley has to sing to. I love his voice. I always say in jest- that’s because he is from East Texas, the greatest place in the world!

[@Steven-s4r]

Don Henley is definitely a poet.

[@SergioMolan]

A poet using other poet's material of course. The line "Is it really me you miss or just your long lost youth?" was written by French poet and writer Marguerite Duras. It originally appeared in her 1984 book "La Douleur".

[@jimmorgan2536]

I think he is one of the best songwriters of our generation

[@keithorr6878]

The whole album is good. A rare thing thing these days.

[@janethardy3208]

Don Henley still kicking ass and taking names!!😘😘😘😘😘

[@hitto1502]

Great song. Don is such a talent.

[@brucehilliard2930]

Once an Eagle, always an Eagle! Once an Eagles Fan, always an Eagles Fan! Classic Eagles' folk rock style song with harmonies galore and melodic heaven. For his advancing age his voice is still as strong as 1972 when I stood on a corner in Winslow, Arizona (true story) I will add to my guitar repertoire along with all those other classics from my self taught guitar 35 years ago to "Eagles Complete". Excellent song.

[@keithorr6878]

Martina McBride is one of the few performers who could sing the phone book and keep you coming back for more.

[@anthonyyoutubefan7567]

I don't hear this song enough on the radio (nor the other single-worthy songs, besides, "Take A Picture Of This"). I wish they had made an actual music video for this tune, featuring Don and Martina...whenever I hear it, I always picture how the video would look, inc. the roaring fire w/ Don and guitar. The duet with Stevie is a new classic in both of their oeuvres, and sits nicely next to "Leather And Lace"-- radio play, please? It is criminal how this double LP was overlooked at the Grammy Awards of 2016/2017...I thought for sure that Don would pick up at least the award for Best Country Album. I'm not much of a Country Music fan, though, I've always respected it and its history, and its especially American roots; but, Don Henley makes the trip (down South), the experience, and the education as comfortable, powerful, genuine, fun, and memorable as it can be for a City Boy. Thus, this album sits next to Vince Gill's THESE DAYS Box Set/Quadruple LP/CD , as an experience/education that I can always relive/rediscover again. I hope the 2-LP has gone Gold (and then some...like Double Platinum) by now...I'm glad it was a #3 Pop/#1 Country/#1-Overall Seller upon its debut, though, I expected no less. Don, I was literally raised on The Eagles' music since I was a toddler in the mid/late-1970s, so, thank you for the good, diverse work then, since, and beyond. I wish you and The Eagles (along w/ Junior Eagle Deacon) a great Summer performing at the East/West Concerts. Please, tell Mick Fleetwood to make a ginormous Box Set/Quadruple LP/CD/DVD of the best of the proceedings and festivities...$$$...it's certainly a landmark moment for your respective groups, and everyone else that'll be appearing/performing there; so, it definitely warrants posterity. Peace and (Country) Rock 'N' Roll, Sir!

[@Suzycat1000]

Been an Eagles fan since the 70s. Just watched Don's concert with Martina, Ashley, Trisha and Dixie Chicks on TV. Awesome bless him.

[@keithorr6878]

One of the best Austin City Limits ever.

[@Damdaam96]

Only 19 years old, but i definetly can not live without this awesome voice. Waiting for the 25th of september as a kid waiting for Christmas

[@ShaunaLuckie96]

I'm the exact same!

[@kroakie4]

+David Behymer, old timers make some of the best music. They may have slowed down a tad but they're still ten times better than 90% of today's crap music.

[@LiberTBo]

+kroakie4 That would be a huge load of bullshit bro...that's the same idea they ran on us back in the 1960's and 1970's remember?

[@donnahess-gilmour2869]

+Damdaam96 Hey these guys Don H, Randy Meisner, Glenn Frey, Joe Walsh, Timothy B Schmit and Don Felder sang and wrote some of the greatest music on this earth. Enjoy.

[@kroakie4]

+Terrance Hill, I must respectfully disagree. It'll be pointless arguing with me. I'm firm in my opinion.

[@keithorr6878]

We don't listen to music the same as we used to. Now you have to dig a little rather than just waiting for it to come up on the radio like we all used to do.

[@Pookie2807]

Great blend of two professional, seasoned voices! One of the greatest collections of songs I've heard. What a gift this CD is!

I'm 18 years old and his voice is my favorite voice ever. The way he sings is just perfect. From desperado to this album, amazing.

[@dorothykuveke1217]

I'm with you Vinny. I am 63 I have followed the Eagles Poco Don Henley throughout my teenage years my twenties my thirties my forties and here I am today still listening to Don Henley what an amazing musician and singer. Whenever I'm blue or down and out all I have to do is put one of his songs on and he always gives me that special something. I don't know what to call it or maybe I should just say he brings me to the heart of the matter ☘️🌹

[@beverlyspigel5607]

The Eagles rule. Henley is the best I'm , and old fan who never grows tired of either of them. The Eagles are my favorite group of all time. Henley is my favorite male artist of all time, he is a poet. Keep it up.

[@keithorr6878]

I caught this one live on Austin City Limits. Loved it right from the first time i heard it.

[@kubrix1222]

I think this is my favorite track from the new album. Don is superb, what a voice.

[@darinloveland6120]

Not surprised Henly makes his music from within. And McBride as well. Instant classic

[@angelsavoy5254]

Don Henley and Martina McBride ... Awesome Duet. Love this song. I can relate to the message within this song! ❤️

[@CatherineSTodd]

Ah, Martina... that lovely voice comes across clear as a bell! Great song.

[@keithorr6878]

I never really was much of an Eagles fan but Don Henley definitely nailed it on this one. Saw it on Austin City Limits. One of their best ever shows.

[@Shellynn123]

LOL I LOVE these young girls on here saying how much they love Don Henley's voice!! That is soooooo cool!! I know I've had many many years of listening to The Eagles together and individually. I love them all...but Don and Glen Frey are without a doubt my faves!! (First time I saw the Eagles was 1978 and I was 14) HAHA Soooooo excited for this tour!! WOO HOO! I'm hoping to hit at least 4 or 5!

[@rachelb1589]

+Shellynn123 Ooh! Me! I'm one of those! lol

[@kroakie4]

Don't forget Joe Walsh!

[@Shellynn123]

@Don Henley Ohhh I so wish you were the real Don Henley and not a scammer :-(

[@verver9]

Don coming full circle... so good!! I'm really looking forward to this album to add to my long list of my Henley recordings. Love this song with Martina, their voices harmonize perfectly!

[@DSilvergun]

verver9 Not sure what you mean by full circle. However, he does seem to be in good voice. I wouldn't mind hearing another collaboration with Slash on the new solo record.

[@mysavedvideos11]

+DcsOrCity - She means he's returning to his country rock / folk rock roots from the time he was in the group "Shiloh" (late '60's - 1971) AND the Eagles' first 3 Albums: "Eagles" (1972), "Desperado" (73) & "On The Border" (74), for which they first came to fame

[@peteperry5712]

Don't they just... a rare harmony indeed.

[@FelixKarlsson91]

My father played this song for me when it came out and i played it during a drive to Germany in an Audi A5 doing 190km/h on Autobahn and i felt free from everything, while i was driving

[@sandib4234]

First time I heard the song, love it!!😊

Seeing Don Henley live in concert has been my long time wish. Hoping that it would come true in the nearest future.

[@janiegib51]

Love this man and his voice, one of a kind! 💞

[@timhurley8494]

Gosh...this release is like creeper weed. It sneaks up on you before you know you're stoned. Henley was country before country was cool. Unlike many modern practitioners of a genre' dumbed down by the Taylor Swift's of modern music, the depth, sonic clarity (Produced by ex-Heartbreaker Stan Lynch...duh) emotive roots, and the wisdom grown with grey hair follicles ooze from these tracks on "Cass County." As an added bonus, at 68, he can still rock em' back with the best of them. As an unsubtle and shameless hint to my Facebook posse', he's playing the FOX the day before my birthday on November 8th. I'd love to go

[@marjimartin5787]

Don's album a winner I hope - This song is amazing - hope he wrote it but Martina McBride been a huge fan of hers for ages - They make a great pair - voices perfect together!! Thanks for sending my friend!!!

Some flames never fully burn out. Even after decades, they can be brought back with the slightest of suggestions. A song, a sight, a word. Wish this weren't the case but seems to be the way it is...Irrespective of the impact, great work on this Don and Martina...Thanks for the music...Ed

Love this. The lyrics tell such a good story, you can actually see it playing like a movie. In interviews, Don said it is based on a true story, and that the internet is a blessing (lots of information in seconds), and a curse (the past can catch up with you).
