WHY IS THIS BLOCKED IN THE US? This video is apparently blocked in the U.S. now (but still available elsewhere, which is why I've left it up). The publishers requested it, so not my call. They were getting ad revenue from this, so it seems sort of silly to block it, but to each his/her own, I suppose. The Eagles' publisher are notoriously aggressive about such things. The audio is still available for sale and streaming, however. Sorry for the inconvenience. -MM

EVERYONE LOVES THIS SONG. I kinda think on it as an ode to obsession "driving past your home but I KNOW your not home"
@akiramenai4973 3 жыл бұрын
No, just nostalgia. It's more about the lifelong feeling of wanting what could have been. It's not as immediate as obsession.

It's difficult to get excited by covers of classic tunes that are ingrained in all of us - but your version of this was tremendous - gave me goosebumps with the vocal range. Nice work. Dropped by here after seeing your Africa rendition - equally great.

Hey Mike, awesome job as always!! You are one of the best "cover" guitar playing/singers I have ever heard. You are spot on with this Henley classic which is not an easy cover to do, but you know how to put so much feeling into each & every video you compose. Can never get enough of your singing, keep up the great work!!

Thirty years ago, this was the song that my ex-wife and I listened to as "our song" while we were dating. Every line, every note of the song is chiseled into my memory. I loved that song. Then I heard your interpretation. I think that you did a better job because it's just you and your guitar. Thanks, I really like your work.
