"Boys of Summer" is about as close to a perfect song as there is. This is a cool version.

Don is a complicated and intelligent man. This runs through all of his music and makes him a genuinely interesting person. His musical talent is astronomical but it's the brain food that marks him as special.

Beth, Don Henley tends to take down any of his stuff posted on KZfaq. (Especially covers!) You might get away with this one because it's from Howard Stern's show. IDK.

There are not many perfect songs in this world. But this is one of them. The lyrics are amazing. It tells the story so clearly.

The official video won Best Video of the Year on MTV, which makes it even more of a blast from the past. It's so great how so many from one band went on to such great solo careers like Don, Joe Walsh, Don Felder, and Glenn Frey. Glenn Frey's "Smugglers Blues" is also a great song and video. There's just something about drummer / singers that is just so impressive with the talent it takes to do both at the same time.

I always thought the “boys” in Boys of Summer were the summer residents. Those boys whose families had summer beach homes or the boys working the summer tourist jobs. The girl, I assume, is a year round resident gaining attraction from the summer boys. The narrator is saying, I’ll be there for you with a growing love beyond the boys of summer. It’s one of Henley (and Mike Campbell’s) best songs.

@paulm8908

im wondering why you would surmise him speaking, vs singing. he was always going to sing. there is no speaking voice at all. what are you talking about?

@double00spy

He is a Texan .... it's perfectly natural for him to say "Ahh" instead of "I". Plus, of course, it is musically better.

The original up tempo version has the greatest guitar outro I have ever heard, played by Steuart Smith....Simply beautiful..

@paulm8908

babe, you gave your tell. before he ended his phrasing, you went gaga. you know the song, you know the instance, and you know don henley. not bad on you, but lets get real. he is amazing.

Boys of Summer is one of my most cherished songs of the 80's. I was like... 13 back then and I heard it on repeat. It reminds me of my youth, the book I was reading, how good the times were.

I have always liked this song as it painted a picture of the melancholy we feel end of summer. It reminds me of the summers at our beach house growing up. The girl who became my wife and I spent the summers of our teen years at beach. When she passed away I had this song played at her funeral because it reminded me of our summers together...and her departure from life. The image evoked by the lyrics "empty lake, empty streets, the sun goes down alone" echoed my feelings at her loss...and still do all these years later.

You remarked on the open vowel way he sings the "I' in "I can see you...". You need to keep in mind that Henley is a native Texan raised in rural East Texas on a farm. And even though his speaking voice no longer has a heavy southern accent that it may have had as a kid growing up in East Texas, when he sings, it will come through to a certain extent, especially on those kinds of vowel sounds. We in the southern US pronounce all our words such as I, bye, high, sky etc with that 'open vowel'...And true southerners are not ashamed of it either. Proud of it in fact! 🙂 Like a song I once heard says, "I speak my southern English just a freely as I wish"

I would recommend you react to another one of his songs called "The Heart of the Matter". The lyrics are so poignant and his vocals are very emotive.

Great song off a GREAT album, Building the Perfect Beast... saw Don on tour for this one and he was amazing, but he always has been a pro whenever i've seen him solo or with The Eagles. Love this slowed down version.

Thank you Beth. This song was a favourite in the 80s. I recommend you to listen to Don Henley - A New York Minute. ❤❤

One of my all time favourite songs. I always pump up the volume when this comes on the radio.

Feels like being back in highschool. And the weird thing is... even back then, before I even had anything to feel nostalgic about, this song still managed to make me feel nostalgic anyway.
