I know Don Henley is supposed to be a musical genius, but I could never figure out how a guy who is supposed to be so talented could put out a song as dumb and bad as this one.

you might have missed the hint, but that doesn't make it a stupid song.

Not the original, but the original stinks also.

You hate Styx? They are one of my all-time favorite bands. Do you like any of the other Chicago bands. There are a lot of good groups from Chicago. Reo Speedwagon is from Chicago. The group Chicago is obviously from Chicago. Richard Marx is from Chicago. The group Survivor had a few good songs. They're from Chicago.

It appears that our taste in music is about as different as our taste in politics. LOL.

I actually was somewhat of a Cheap Trick fan. I like a lot of the big groups from the 70s and 80s. I like The Eagles, Fleetwood Mac, Journey, Foreigner, Tom Petty, Supertramp, Elton John, Billy Joel, etc. That is my favorite type of music.

Dennis' voice is better than ever after all these years. He's still touring. He was on Jimmy Kimmel:

Oh no.
I love this city, but seeing all those crappy artists together on one list sort of made me want to move elsewhere.
