In this video, we dive into three unforgettable Eagles songs that the band members themselves couldn’t stand. From Don Felder’s crushing disappointment over “Victim of Love” to Glenn Frey’s uneasy feelings about his early vocal work on “Peaceful Easy Feeling,” and Don Henley’s outright contempt for “I Wish You Peace,” these behind-the-scenes stories reveal the chaos and ego battles that fueled the Eagles’ rise to superstardom.
The Eagles are often celebrated for their pristine harmonies and perfect production, but few fans realize how much turmoil brewed beneath the surface. Every hit came at a cost, every session carried tension, and every decision sparked debate. These three songs, in particular, show how creative genius can collide with human frailty, producing music that endures even when its makers wish it hadn’t. Step inside the studio drama, artistic clashes, and personal insecurities that made the Eagles not just a band, but a legend.
