Their secret weapon was that every single member could sing lead, so they could do unbelievable harmonies.

THE BEST BAND EVER!!

It's pronounced Glenn Frey(Fry). Great song by the Eagles, it's a great rabbit hole to go down. One of my favorite bands of the 70's.

I’ve probably heard this song about 100 thousand times and it still gives me goosebumps. Everything is so well thought of in the song. The lyrics, the instrumentation, everything.

Don Felder’s guitar fills are a masterclass on taste. His touch on a guitar is so smooth.

Me TOO. Came here only for the guitar fills...the way they sparkle up the vocal harmony is what brings all the feelings, through my horse ears.

You can't beat that harmony. The lead guitar man for the Eagles mother was my mother's best friend here in Gainesville, FL. He would visit his mother and eat lunch with her and my mom. My mom liked him and said he was a real gentleman. His name is Don Felder.😊

Great start to my day 🤗

One of the greatest songs with the most incredible lyrics by one of the most extraordinary bands of all time, the Eagles, and they could fly !!!

Seven bridges road- basically accapella & all harmony- it will blow your mind.

This is the music I grew up on. The Eagles were a great 70's band with so many hit songs. They were known for their great harmonies. "Take It Easy", "Witchy Woman", "Desperado", "Already Gone", "Best of My Love", "One Of These Nights", "Take It to the Limit", Hotel California, "New Kid in Town" etc. Before they went solo they were the back up band for Linda Ronstadt.

Seven Bridges Road is actually a song by Steve Young who later sang it with Crosby, Stills and Nash. It was used by the Eagles as a warm up song in the shower room before they hit the stage. They liked their dynamic with it so much, that they later added it to their set list.

Don Henley is the problem.

A couple of things: First, Glenn's last name is pronounced "Fry", not "Fray". The story behind the song is not that someone cheated on any of the band members. The story is that Glenn Frey and Don Henley used to hang out at the bar in Dan Tana's Italian Restaurant on Santa Monica Blvd. in West Hollywood, before heading next door to the Troubadour club. They would sit back and imagine the lives of the people they saw at the bar. They often saw young, beautiful women with much older men - men of wealth. So, they imagined that frequently, these girls would cheat on their sugar daddies to get the love and romance that their "relationship' lacked. So the song was a musical way of expressing one of the stories they made up while sitting in Dan Tana's.

The incomparable Glenn Frey, ladies and gentlemen! To sound in concert JUST like you do in the studio, you know it's greatness. The whole band is so beyond talented and most of them have their own hit songs. (For those getting to know the Eagles). I think of them as one of the greatest guitar bands of all time along with Lynyrd Skynyrd. But, yes, keep going down this road - feel good, relaxing, sing-along songs. Great reaction!

Don Felder's masterful guitar riffs on that Fender Telecaster give this song it's haunting sound. This song came out during the summer of 1975, my freshman year of high school, and it was a part of the soundtrack of my teenage years

Did the Eagles ever have a bad song? I can't think of any!!

It is hard to do reactions to Eagles music, they are notorious for blocking. Please don’t give up! You’re reactions are great and I’m loving following your journey of discovery. I bought every album the Eagles made and still know every word to every song some 50 years later! “Take it to the Limit”, “Seven Bridges Road”, “Peaceful Easy Feeling”, “Heartache Tonight”, “Witchy Woman”, “Take it Easy”, and sooooo many more! Eager for the next one!

Don't you love the story telling in the music of the 70s and 80s? Singing along with Glen... Love it! Thanks for another great reaction. ❤️👍

Absolute masterpiece. Rest in Peace amazing Glen Frey 💔💔💔

There is a message in this song. Marrying for money is not what it is cracked up to be.

They are the third member of my holy trinity! The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, and the Eagles! 😎👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Eagles are an Awesome Group...... So Many Great Songs.......

Love this man.

I’ve been listening to the Eagles music for all of my 50 years, & I still get chills when they hit that harmony- damn!

You do know that a lot of songs the Eagles did were written about Stevie Nicks. She had massive influence on the Eagles, Tom Petty & Fleetwood Mac

So much talent on that stage.

Take it to the limit (live) with Randy Meisner on vocals, brilliant.

One thing that makes them so good is the way they harmonize so great .I grew up in that time . The Moody blues is a good group too. 👍👍👍👍👍

My favorite song by The Eagles! Love this live version, but the studio version is absolutely perfect with the 4 part harmony, especially at the end. Great reaction!

The guy in the red bandanna is Joe Walsh, and he's got a few hits of his own. Rocky Mountain Way is fantastic! Life's Been Good is also really good.

Great songs!

One of my favourites by the Eagles, but they have so so so many great songs.

Beautifully crafted song words and music delivered perfectly, What more can I say,

The studio version from “One of These Nights” is simply breathtaking. Randy, Don, and Glen blended their voices to perfection…My Oh my you sure know how to arrange things

I think the thing that makes a song a classic is it stands the test of time. This song might be more relevant now than it was back then!

I'm not sure where or how you found this live version since so many of their videos are blocked. But there is also a video out there of another song at the same live concert. The bass player, Randy Meisner, singing "Take it to the Limit". My understanding is, as talented as Randy is, he was still shy and unsure about performing this song live. He knocked it out of the ballpark! You can even see the rest of the band members smiling at his performance. It would be worth checking to see if you can pull the video up (The Eagles Take it to the Limit live 1977). If the video is blocked, at least listen to the audio version. Randy's voice is phenomenal!

We need a P.O. Box!!! I'll send you a copy of their C.D. called Hell Freezes Over. As Don Henley (the drummer) says "we didn't break up, we just took a 17 year vacation." Old songs sounds the same and the new ones are great Eagles hits. I crank up "Get Over It" in the car just to see the other drivers faces😁😘

'Take it to the limit' live is another absolute classic! Can't beat the Eagles!

I grew up listening to a variety of music & The Eagles have always been one of faves along with The Supremes, Marvin Gaye, Barry White, Fleetwood Mac, Hall & Oates. The music was so awesome back then.

Eagles are a great group and this is one of my favorite songs. Not many people react to it, so I'm glad you did!

You're right that was a good song thumbs up to you good reaction

It's FRY. 😄😄 Eagles. Thanks for the throwback.

Love the Eagles. No idea if it occurs elsewhere, but our township has a local radio station that broadcasts 'our' music, no ads, no interruptions, nothing but the music of our youth. We have it on every day and laugh at how we sometimes forget trash pick-up day, stuff needed from the grocery store, etc., but remember every ding-danged word of the songs we loved back then. It's nice that many younger people appreciate and recognize how special that music was and is.

Absolutely LOVE The Eagles, some of the best music ever!

So much many TALENTED!!! ,great! With Elvis💕👍

I grew up on the Eagles. I remember waiting until their next album to be released so I could rush out and buy it. I was so sure it could never be as good as the one I had bought before, but every time I was fooled! The album would always be better than the last! There aren’t many bands that can do that. This is the reason I call them America’s number one band! They are just as good today as they were back then. Their music has with stood the test of time.

I love your comments, brother, I love the fact that you love this song, because it’s one of my all-time favorites!

Beautiful, isn't it. And every verse addresses a different individual, so gently circular as well. A very special band.

This song is an absolute classic - a monster! When you hear the whole thing, and think about the implications...It's a story that happens somewhere EVERY NIGHT!

Grew up with the Eagles playing....Will be seeing them in concert Feb 2023....whoo hooooo..Party time!

Most bands at their heyday are great and amazingly appreciated .....THEN we get old ,unfortunately some band members pass away and the appreciation grows beyond what can be written in a brief comment ... That's the Eagles personified .. great when we knew them , and even greater as time goes on ... praise God for being born in '58 , and praise God to recognize the greatest harmonious group ever assembled ... thank you for kicking rap to the curb ... the Curb is where you put the trash ...

Really enjoyed your reaction to this wonderful song. I have been a fan of The Eagles for over 40 years -- their music never gets old.

The Eagles wrote this song when they were in a bar. Glen Frey and Don Henley. They noticed an older gentleman with a beautiful young lady .

I saw them,last Saturday,in Manchester,England.They were fabulous,sounded as good as always.

Had the privilege of seeing the Eagles in 95...best concert of my lifetime

I was at their very first concert at the beginning of the "Hell Freezes Over" tour after reuniting in '94. I agree.....it was awesome. It was at Aloha Stadium on Oahu (Honolulu). The show started when the lights came up and there were 5 guitarists seated in a row on high stools. They began a long intro into Hotel California that showcased some amazing guitar playing. I knew then that it would be epic.

there are so few bands now and fewer still where multiple members can sing. That was something that helped the Beatles as well. I so miss the harmonies that were prevalent during this era.

I always thought if you put their songs together in the right order it's like listening to a musical. There's an underlying thread about a few people moving in and out of each other's lives that connects them all.

I love seeing the younger generation react to music I listened to

Their super power is being able to sound JUST as good live as they do on their records. The Eagles are unmatched. 😍

A musical masterpiece and perfection from the singing, music and lyrics!

A touch of country. Superb back vocals.

OMG These guys had so many hits. I play their greatest hit CD in my car. Good traveling music when I can't any reception. 💖💖💖

The best concert I’ve ever been to! 1977, the old Capital Centre in Maryland. Also on the card we’re Linda Ronstadt and Jackson Browne. This was breaking out of Joe Walsh joining the Eagles!

Top of the Pops man ...love it!!!!

Probably the best song ever written

This is my all time favourite Eagles song. I loved it the first time I ever heard it when it was released and nothing's changed. I still love it as much today. Every track on their Greatest Hits 1971-1975 is brilliant. I can't imagine ever getting sick of hearing any of tracks on it.

I saw a documentary for this band where each member was interviewed about the band’s beginning & end and everything in between. They talked about how some of the songs came to life. Some were born from a simple guitar riff the guitarist was using just to warm up with then they put lyrics & all together to make it a great song. “Life in the fast lane “ was such a song because Joe Walsh was using the riff just as an exercise to warm up. Wasn’t too long after they had a song born from just a riff. So they told the story of how this song came to be. They were at a bar one night and saw a young woman out w an older man. They could tell they were strangers. And he said the way the woman looked at the man was through “lying eyes” as if she was out cheating. The next day they had the makings of this song.

Love this song ❤❤❤

This song always made me cry. Such beautiful harmonies and broken hearts.

I like this guy

Glenn sang lead on many Eagles hits wrote a lot of them as well was a genius

The Greatest American Band Of All Time !!

This has always been my favorite "Story Song"

On your own you should listen to “Desperado” The whole album. On second thought listen to them all in order. First album “Eagles”, “Desperado”, “On The Border“, “One Of These Night”, “Hotel California“, “The Long Run”, then they broke up and said they wouldn’t get back together until Hell freezes over, so they got back together and recorded “Hell Freezes Over”, “Long Road Out Of Eden”. The Eagles greatest hits sold more than 38 million albums.

America’s number one Band

Iv listen too this song many times. And just realized. She was playing bouth of the men.

Thanks for the extra work required to let us see this reaction. Love Eagles reactions. Sorry they're d!icks about more people seeing their music.

Listen to Take It to the Limit one more time you'll love it too

The Eagles are perfection. This is the one group that I never get tired of listening to.

I had never heard this version in 40 plus years of hearing this song and it’s my new favorite! Thanks for reacting!

My party peice great song

Ok so now you need to look up one of their songs that had Randy Meisner singing the lead. His voice was probably the most beautiful. I hear he was a very sweet man too (died July of 2023).

There’s about 2 min on the full version that says more about the story about the encounter. Still one of my favourite songs

Awesome reaction

I was busking this song one time. People always tip me because they love this song, it really seems to resonate with people. (I love it too.) So anyway, bout 15 minutes after I already played the song, a homeless guy in a wheelchair with one leg pushes up to me and asks me to play Lying Eyes by Eagles. I say sure, and as he drops a dollar in my guitar case, I start the song. After the first verse he scoots away, and after the second verse I closed it down. I mean, it's a long song and I already played it. He is about 50 yards away, and he scoots back to me and says, "Hey - what about that last verse?" So I say, sure, and pop into the last verse. He scoots away happy. I shouldn't have short changed him the first time around!

Their best , for my scratched heart

Every song is a story.

Love this song

Me too I still love this song

Best road trip music

The Eagles have the best vocals of any band in history. 2nd best American band of all time behind RHCP.
