On to Round 2 to determine the GREATEST song on the ONLY greatest hits album on my list. 'Their Greatest Hits 1971-1975' by The Eagles.
Eliminated Round 1 -  Best Of My Love, Peaceful, Easy Feeling, and Desperado

For anyone new to the game:
You are going to pick the song that you think is the "Weakest Link" after 3 days I remove the two (2) songs with the most votes.
We will then move on to Round 3  - Remember you are voting to eliminate songs from contention.

Lets have fun with this. Remember debating and discussing why your right and others are wrong is always fun.

    There was a time when I thought this was a Bee Gees song.

    Oh man, this round is going to shit. I can't believe Lyin' Eyes is not getting more votes. Take it to the Limit is rightfully leading votes. Oh well, as long as Take it Easy survives to the end.

    Take it to the Limit is better than most of the songs on this album IMO.
    Lyin' Eyes is awful - I can't believe it's not got more votes either.

    If every song gets 6 votes, do we just admit the Eagles kind of suck and move on to the next artist? Lol

    Not real attached to this song. 

    It seems, unscientifically, that those who were into Huey Lewis are in the Eagle's suck camp. 

    I like it much better when 2 songs go each round, when it's 3 songs each round I don't feel like it gives the album enough consideration. Just my opinion.

    Eagles are way better than Huey Lewis, imo.
    I do not hate the Eagles, I just find them to be....old and boring.

    I am in favor of 3 per round.  Only takes a spin of the record to determine where you land on the songs, I feel.
