Eagles

• Peter Seeley +1 — The song of my people
• Claire +1 — Classic story song. I didn’t initially want to vote for it bc it’s an obvious pick but in terms of telling a good story it does make the top 4 for me
• fionmul +1
• Sam Ary +1
• Regina Scime +1 — Classic
• Edward James 0 — I hate Eagles man
• Joseph Harvey 0 — “We haven’t had that spirit here since 1969” is like us talking about 2019.
• ared56 -1

• SamRobertsND +1
• Sam Ary +1
• fionmul 0 — Fun Generic eagles vibes
• Edward James 0 — This just didn’t stand out to me despite sounding technically so proficient and nice. It’s like “Eagles do the Eagles” Which is true of the Billy Joel song too but that one actually felt like it had heart
• Claire 0 — I had no idea they were making new music this recently

Sam Ary: Starting off with a classic

• Edward James +1 — I was right away biased against this, because to me, road trip kickoff needs to be energetic. But I will say that as I listened, I could very easily picture a solo road trip, one meant to clear the mind and reflect, starting off with something like this. It expanded the category for me, and for that it gets a vote.
• shea nowicki +1
• Joseph Harvey 0 — This is good for the last third of a road trip as the light starts to go golden, this is in no way hype enough for a kickoff
• fionmul 0 — So good but I voted for only one eagle song and thought the other was better
• SamRobertsND 0 — Great song, but there’s a better Eagles pick here.
• Peter Seeley 0 — Good middle of the road trip song
• judd.baker 0 — This is just too low key to be a trip opener. Also being The Eagles is an automatic -10 starting point that has to be overcome somehow (see elsewhere)
• ared56 -1
• Claire -1 — Love the song but of the two eagles songs it’s the one that feels less apt for this round

• fionmul +1 — I think this wins as far as which eagles submission is best
• SamRobertsND +1 — This was the Eagles' song to pick. Right tempo
• judd.baker +1 — See above. As the poet said, “I’ve had a long night and I hate the f-kin Eagles, man”—but with that said, something about this song and only this song really gets me. Platonic form of road trip song almost
• Joseph Harvey 0 — This is a great song. More of a second hour of road trip song though
• Edward James 0 — You could say it's hypocritical of me to ignore this one and upvote the other Eagles song, but this one does not invoke for me the same "Let's start on a new journey" feeling that Peaceful Easy Feeling does.
• Brad Stalcup 0 — Halfway through a road trip? Absolutely. Starting off a roadtrip? Not quite energetic enough.
• Peter Seeley 0 — Good for sixth hour of driving, right before lunch.
