Top 10 Eagles Songs

[@humphreykentbalane8991]

The Eagles is one of the few bands in history where all band members have their own hit song, its a rarity to see bands with such talent all together.

Yeah, but unfortuately, some of them clashed with each other. So much for those egos.

Tragic that “I Can’t Tell You Why” and “Love Will Keep Us Alive” didn’t at least make Honorable Mention. Tim Schmidt is the reason why the 1994 reunion was even possible let alone actually happened. And those Tracks are badass!

[@susanbrown4026]

Take It To The Limit is probably my favorite song from the Eagles. I love the high notes that Randy was capable of hitting. It saddens me that Randy hated having to sing it in concert and felt forced to do it. I don't know if he didn't realize just how good he was or if he hated being the front man. I wish that he could have enjoyed his performances more. However, there are many people in this world who don't want to be the center of attention. RIP Randy. I sure love you and your contribution to the music world. God bless ❤

[@vrouwkje]

That's my favorite too! Such a great voice and a lovely face ❤

[@mistyapril29]

From what I've heard Randy said the song was vocally strenuous and he was scared he would mess up the song Live. So, one night he just refused to sing and after an argument he left and was kicked out of the group

[@susanbrown4026]

@mistyapril29 I have read about what happened that night. Randy singing "Take It To The Limit " would have been their 3rd encore. He refused bc he wasn't feeling well. When Glenn Frye insisted he sing it anyway, Randy poured a beer over Glenn's head. This is not the typical nice guy Randy was known to be. Obviously, he wasn't feeling well for whatever reason. It astounds me that Randy left and gave up any rights as an equal owner of the "Eagles ". He must have wanted out pretty badly to give up any royalties. IMO, Glenn was an egomaniac and caused many other issues including firing Don Felder. I'm certain that there are many other untold stories. I hope that someday, someone will speak the absolute truths and untold stories. Thanks for your comment 👍.

[@huntermetal19723]

My fave as well

[@drkjk]

In interviews I've seen of Walsh and Felder, RM was suffering from some type of gastrointestinal problem (ulcers perhaps). In any case, I understand Meisner wasn't quite the "equal" partner that many assume, with Henley and Frey being more equal than the others. Given that Frey and Henley did the majority of writing I guess they have a good case. @@susanbrown4026

[@dougbarker4341]

John Boylan, who produced their 2nd album, was somewhat unimpressed with the group until one day during a break in the studio, he heard the group do their harmonizing exercise singing 7 Bridges Road a capella. He was struck by the harmony and told them that was IT...that was their sound. Those harmonies have been the key to their success.

That song should have been top 5, at least

[@grokur9714]

Immortalfire New Kid in Town

[@btchhopperou812]

One Of These Nights SHOULD be at the top IMO- The FEEL of that entire album is just SO cohesive, synchronous and symbiotic- and it makes me feel like ALL the current members at the time it was recorded were at the top of their games(their heads were all in the right place at that moment) and complimenting each others strengths as musicians/bandmates. This much 'individual' talent in one place has a 'shelf life' of, well, NOT very long LOL, yet this album feels to me, moreso as they BELONGED together and it translates into what I think is about as close to a 'flawless' album as it got. As if the band was there for a single reason... to make the BEST MUSIC possible for their audience to enjoy hearing. Just my 2 cents...

[@fantasyworld7825]

Hotel California:"Signature song of all signature songs" I like that.😎😎😎

How is "I Can't Tell You Why" not even in the honorable mentions? It's one of their most popular songs!

[@TheBillyKmusic]

Most people who don't have the album, don't recognize it as an Eagles song.......they know the song, but they can't mentally connect it with the band.....probably think it's Hall and Oates, or Ambrosia, or somebody like that.

[@williammorley4985]

@@TheBillyKmusic Did you ever get to see The Eagles live? I can tell you why this song deserves to be there. Timothy B. Schmidt is arguably the best singer in that band

Seen them twice, a LONG time ago.(before Schmidt joined). Regardless, it's a great song.....and as I said, there are people out there, that don't get the connection.

You left out one of my faves: "Try and Love Again" with Randy Meisner singing lead.

[@GBPLVR]

"I can't tell you why" was a favorite featuring bass player Timothy and covered later by Vince Gill on a tribute album. The guitar solo is amazing by itself not to mention Timothy high notes and vocal range. Surprised not on here! Also "Best of my love" big hit topped the charts.

[@blueyzblue6391]

RomeoRomeo5000 : )

[@pkbrownsfan9049]

Was going to leave a comment about the very same thing myself. I was shocked "Already Gone" did not even get an honorable mention----as you stated ! I guess that happens when you record album after album with "no filler", as the Eagles did in the 70's. But Watch Mojo could have left off "Get Over It" as an honorable mention. As it was written long after the band's 'hay-days'. I like "Already gone", as I do most of the Eagle's songs. But that was not the reason I thought it should have been in the top 10. I am basing that off from the amount of radio play the song has received over the last 4+ decades ! My top 10 would have included "Outlaw Man", "Too Many Hands", "Last Resort", " Good Day in Hell", "Try and Love Again", "Victim of Love", "Already Gone"....and then....Hotel California, Take it Easy, and "Life in the Fast Lane" from Watch Mojo's list. But I get it; my list would not be the top 10 of many Eagle's fans. Going by that standard (overall list fans would come-up with) Watch Mojo's list is just about perfect............with one exception. Omitting "Already Gone" ! But in the end, every Eagle's song is top 10 worthy. Greatest "American" band of all time ! RIP : Glen Frey

[@MrRonskiman]

Epic response!

[@blakew.5736]

Truly the greatest band of all time. Every single one of their band members were the lead vocals to an absolute classic. Ask 20 people their favorite Eagle’s song and and they’d probably give you 20 different answers. That’s how transcendent they are/were. No band can come close to having the number of sheer number of classics the Eagles have.

Lyin Eyes should be top five or six. Last Resort deserves top 10. I like Take it to The Limit but not sure it's that high

[@DragerPilot]

There is no doubt that The Eagles is my absolute favorite band. Admittedly part of that has to do with original band member, and bassist Randy Meisner. Randy is my age and was born and raised 6 miles from where I lived in Western Nebraska. I never knew him personally, but frequently would go to listen to his very popular regional band, The Dynamics. I don’t know why Randy left the Eagles at what I thought was the peak of their success, but he returned home to Mitchell NE, and the farming life. Whatever you might say, Randy Meisner has talent.
