It highlights every reason why the Eagles sucked, which of course made it so popular to the masses.

For me, it's one of those lines that stops and makes me think every time I hear it.
      that whole song is a lyrical gem... I hate music snobs. Moonie is the type of person to yell out "it's fake" at the movies.
