The Analog Cub Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 You missed out.I don't think anyone missed a thing. Thanks for planting that annoying Aerosmith song in my head.Sorry. Aerosmith is almost as bad as the Eagles. :( Aerosmith used to be good. Until THAT song. Aerosmith didn't even compose that song, music or lyrics. It's some horrible sappy woman, Diane Somebodyorother, who's made a fortune writing treacly love songs. She's never recorded a note. She's also never been in a serious relationship, which helps explain the hearts-and-flowers, rose-colored glasses perspective on love expressed in her awful songs. I would go so far as to say that song is almost worse than anything the Eagles ever did. And I hate the Eagles with the white hot passion of a thousand supernovas.It's Diane Warren. As much of a blight on music as her senator namesake is to politics. If Diane Warren wrote music for the next Maroon 5 album, I think Mara would go on a killing spree. j/k Can we not talk about that shite band in here, please? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savagegrace26 Posted December 12, 2014 Author Share Posted December 12, 2014 I would go so far as to say that song is almost worse than anything the Eagles ever did. Yep. And that's really, really bad. And I hate the Eagles with the white hot passion of a thousand supernovas. Two thousand supernovas for me. What's so bad about the Eagles? I don't go out of my way to listen to them but songs like Take It Easy, Hotel California, Desperado, Take It to the Limit, etc aren't bad. Can't say I know anything beyond their "greatest hits" songs though. Is it just the music itself or is there something about the bands attitude/egos and their overwhelming popularity that you don't like? I don't know much about the Eagles. Never cared to know much... Eagles are too harmless to hate! Some catchy driving tunes, but their albums suck. I think a quality best of is enough! That's all I've ever had/heard. Their "greatest hits vol. 1". Most of it was decent but I was never motivated to listen to anything else from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because something shite related is completely appropriate for this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Narps Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 I couldn't stand The Eagles back when I was young (70's) and they were super popular. I enjoy their music now and can appreciate all of the many hits and enjoyable songs they wrote.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it just the music itself or is there something about the bands attitude/egos and their overwhelming popularity that you don't like? I don't know much about the Eagles. Never cared to know much... It's the music. I should clarify that I have always hated it, even before I found out what douchecanoes Don and Glenn supposedly are. I didn't know that Don Henley had slagged Rush in an interview before I joined this forum in 2008. So it's a real hatred, not the hipster-style hatred of everything mainstream. At one point it was a normal sort of hatred, the kind that just made me reach for the radio buttons at supersonic speed when one of their songs came on. I hit a whole new, heretofore undiscovered level of loathing, though, when I worked for someone who BLASTED their greatest hits, over and over, for hours every morning. He also tended to hit the repeat button on the stereo remote a lot, meaning that I often had to listen to "Hotel California", "Take It Easy", or "Already Gone" several times in a row. I can't believe my head never exploded. Joe Walsh's solo stuff is good, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EagleMoon Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 I couldn't stand The Eagles back when I was young (70's) and they were super popular. I enjoy their music now and can appreciate all of the many hits and enjoyable songs they wrote.... Yeah same here. I didn't care much for them back in the 70s though you heard them all the time on the radio. The only song I can halfway remember liking was Hotel California.

Brings back good memories and not negative ones which is nice.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
