The Eagles’ Stunning “Best Of My Love” Performance Will Give You Chills

It’s A Sweet Dream…

Finally the critics agree with us: there is no band like the Eagles and there never will be. With the most beautiful and calming vocals, drummer and singer Henley performs the most stunning rendition of “Best Of My Love” that will give you chills.

“You know we always had each other baby, I guess that wasn’t enough. Oh, but here in my heart, I give you the best of my love…”

This #1 hit could pull a tear from the burliest man with the most beautiful combination of melodies, vocals and Leadon’s steel guitar that you have ever heard, especially during this critically acclaimed Capital Centre performance.

Interesting Fact: According to Don Henley, he Souther and Frey wrote some of the lyrics over libations at the Los Angeles restaurant Dan Tana’s where they were regulars. There, they studied women and relationships. Henley says they were “typical, frustrated, young men” at the time.

Although people view this as a love ballad, if you pay attention closely to the lyrics it actually resembles a heart wrenching breakup between lovers that still feel deeply for each other…

You cannot help but sway side- to- side to the delicate and fluid beat of the song that brings on the crowd’s bone chilling applause around the end of the song. This song is pure magic.

+ Best Of My Love Lyrics +

Every night I’m lyin’ in bed
Holdin’ you close in my dreams
Thinkin’ about all the things that we said
And comin’ apart at the seams
We try to talk it over
But the words come out too rough
I know you were tryin’
to give me the best of your love

Beautiful faces and loud, empty places
Look at the way that we live
Wastin’ our time on cheap talk and wine
Left us so little to give
That same old crowd
Was like a cold dark cloud
That we could never rise above
But here in my heart I give you the best of my love
Oh sweet darlin’ you get the best of my love, oh
Sweet darlin’, you get the best of my love

I’m goin’ back in time
And it’s a sweet dream
It was a quiet night
And I would be all right
If i could go on sleepin’
But every mornin’
I wake up and worry
What’s gonna happen today
You see it your way
And I see it mine
But we both see it slippin’ away

You know we always had each other baby
I guess that wasn’t enough
Oh, but here in my heart
I give you the best of my love
Oh, sweet darlin’
You get the best of my love
Oh, sweet darlin’
You get the best of my love
Every night and day,
You get the best of my love
Oh, sweet darlin’ you get the best of my love
Oh, sweet darlin’ you get the best of my love..
