The most positive comment section ever. That's what good music does to people.
Yup
Fuck you
TheRickfs
, true dat ! Call Me Mirko

Austin Powers and Spider Man killin' it once again
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Holy shitttt 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
YEAH baby!
😂😂😂😂😂
I knew he reminded me of someone! Austin Powers dad from the second one!!
Sam Keenan 😂😂😂👍
Wow. two guys a microphone and one hell of a lot of talent.
True!!!
That's not just a microphone. That's a kicke
ass microphone!
i like it but theres more to it than that. definitely some kinda effects on that mic it's super evident near the beginning.
I think there are two guitars there too :)
Theres one microphone pointed to the acoustic guitar. Also there's def a third mic being pointed at the electric guitar amp.
Summer of 1972 - Summer before my sophomore year. My friend (who is a year older and has her driver's license) and I are driving around Nashville with the windows down and this song playing on the radio, turned up LOUD! Singing our little hearts out, we were. We were shopping for some back to school things but really, the most fun was checking out the guys in their muscle cars - my boyfriend drove a 1972 Nova SS and it was BEAUTIFUL :) What a time of life it was!
We were much more innocent of the world. No cell phones; just phone booths. No seat belt laws...most all of us would know someone that had died in a wreck from being thrown out of the vehicle by the time we graduated. We still went on "dates" where the guy paid for everything. We still went "steady"...we still wore their letter jacket or graduation ring with tape wound over the back so it wouldn't fall off our finger. Boys got into fights but it was with fists...no knives or guns pulled out. And to call the police and charge them with assault? Never! It was a matter of pride. Boone's Farm was our Saturday night liquor of choice....maybe the guys would have some beers (all bought by older siblings or cousins :)) Yes, we smoked a little weed but it was NOT the stuff of today. You 😘😘 could smoke a whole joint, tear up the local dairy bar, and still drive home. AND, we were good kids...our parents were raised in the Depression era so they were generous with us but we were still raised with those Depression-era values.
A lot has changed since then. Why am I writing this? These two young men embodied what the Eagles were then, not the corporation they are today. Their bright, clear voices herald a time when music was everything. It accompanied our lives like a glorious arrangement and to this day, for example, I hear this song by these two young men and I am taken back to the day in time of summer 1972,
Tremendous job, guys. Thank you for keeping the vintage songs alive (can't believe it's been 50 yrs). New sub here and I have been listening to your channel all weekend 😘🥰💕
You and I are the same age, and you've perfectly nailed a description of what my life in small town Oregon was like at the same time (I come from a guy's perspective, but everything else was the same). Thanks for putting words to what is a magical time in my memory. AM radio provided the soundtrack of our early 70s youth.
Ok boomer.
So well written! I was listening to this Eagles track across the other side of the pond in 1972 in England, one of my mates had a Morris 1000 convertible with a decent sound system you could wind up. Everything else resonates in your writing, but I think the most important thing is the innate purity of Josh’s covers, he is the ONLY guitarist/singer/arranger who with his carefully chosen friends is taking this wonderful music through this generation and beyond! Divine music it is, keep on rockin’ folks we love you 👏🤗🌎
Nietschze loves you from his grave hahaha........... @@haveaday1812
I loved going to concerts at Vanderbilt.
And to think we almost lost this masterpiece
I wondered why it popped up on my recommended...which was lucky because I hadn't heard this one yet. So good
I saw that Don Henley criticism, and tha reply" jus tryin to keep ure music alive old timers!". LOL. Good reversalDon!! We still fans!!
The blues cover of Life in the Fast Lane is blocked in the US, which is a shame since it was one of my favorite covers of theirs
Ikr
@@FowlerAskew really? that's so lame :(
Hey Josh. I'm not sure if you'll see this, but i just wanted to say that your channel really helps me in my times of needs. I struggle with really bad anxiety and depression, and you give me a way to clear my mind. Thanks with all my heart.
I hope things are going better for you my friend.
You remind me of King Saul when I unclean spirit came upon him and David played music for him it calm him down you’re in the same position you have to recognize that anxiety and depression is a unclean spirit that is trying to rob you of your peace, And this is how you can know What I’m saying is true humble yourself cry out to Jesus Christ, ask for forgiveness and put your trust in Jesus and command anxiety and depression to leave you with authority in the name of Jesus and see what happens.
me too
Not alone brother, God Bless my friend..
Jesus is not made for everyone even though the Bible says that. Its not what most people think it is and what Christians claim it to be. Peter writes its better to have not known Him than to know Him and turn away. So just keep what you have if you cannot make the full commitment or you will lose your life like Saul did when He turned back. Most Christians think that Christ is everyone's quick fix. But that's not true....first of all its not you that accept Christ into your life. That is very much a lie. You must be called and chosen by Him. That's what must transpire first. He must call you to repentance, as He did all His disciples that He chose...they did not choose Him. He chose them. He called them to repentance. But modern Christianity is brained washed at church to repeat what their pastors and preachers say....and chase after them filling their pockets full of ready cash. Beware of wolves in sheep's clothing because they will fleece their flocks. Jesus is a very peculiar representation of God's Holy Spirit. He is beyond what men say. And turning to Him after you've been called. Takes far more than what Christianity teaches in their churches. Because they teach a gospel that's watered down by man's idea's rather than God's ideas by way of His Spirit in Christ.
This is a lesson that many cannot understand. Being Baptized into the Holy Ghost is more than just a ritual at church. It's beyond the true comprehension of most church goers. That's why they attempt to lean on their pastors rather than on Christ. They are subdued with principle and error. A brain washing and sorcerer of things both truth and untrue. The Truth from the Bible, but untrue through their own ideas and philosophies of human origin. Example: If you are attending a church where the pastor or preacher says" this is what I think scripture is trying to tell us ". You need to leave that church and that ministry. Because God is not in that person or that teaching. " I think " is a very wrong approach to adhering to the mind of Christ which is received through the Holy Spirit from on high. Most pastors and preachers miss what Jesus said when he described God. He said " God is a Spirit and those who worship Him must worship Him in Spirit and in Truth...FOR GOD SEEKETH SUCH TO WORSHIP HIM.....you cannot worship God without Him seeking you first to do it. You must be called, chosen and faithful.
So let me reiterate what I said, Christ is not as easy as those who claim to know Him make Him out to be. Because through simplicity that is in Christ, they have erred from the faith by making examples of themselves rather than giving the Truth of God in Christ His priority to choose you. He is the Teacher...not men. As Peter wrote....its better to not have known him than to have known him and turn away........King Saul that is mentioned by Robert Gonzales was one of those people.....he too chose to listen to men rather than God and he turned back from following the Most High King. That proved fatal for him. Many Christians fail miserably because they will not adhere to " every word that has proceeded out of the mouth of God ". They use scripture piece by piece, here a little and there a little.....but refusing consciously to adhere to it as a whole. Leaving out crucial aspects that actually joins them to God in Christ, and Peter, and Paul, and James and John and every word spoken through them by Christ and His Holy Spirit within them.
If you cannot be called to Christ do not attempt to be changed or you will fail.....Because no man can come unto the Father but by Christ....and He must call you.....
The Eagles were like "Nah... We're gonna let this one slide."
Carson has a soothing voice, combines great with Josh's voice.
I find Carson’s voice to be very similar to Paul McCartney and Josh’s is unlike any others really but his range is incredible
@@Kylesatre he has a much better voice than McCartney!
Reminds me of Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora
Any Eagles song requires quality vocals, and these guy nailed it :)
Another Eagles cover by The Other Favorites th-cam.com/video/ZxczSpvKjAM/w-d-xo.html
Certainly! Got the harmony vocal matched perfectly and greatly considering that it is only 2 of them and the eagles used all 4 in the band to harmonize
It's a Jackson Browne song.
@@harnesshouse , maybe this is why they left it up
Glen Harness
No it is not, he wrote it and Glen Frey helped him finish it, but is was an Eagles song.
These guys make the best facial expressions.
Like Joe walsh hahaha
I love these guys but the visual is what's holding them back. They should be world famous but the facial expressions make them look like a couple of mental patients. It's an affect they should drop.
I should be managing them
@@mrknowalltellall572 People very very rarely get famous from just doing guitar covers
This made me laugh so hard
Try watching without music
I dont agree. However, it's horrible to look at
"Don't let the sound of your own wheels drive you crazy"
- what a line - I think of it from time to time when I need it.
nice job guys.
Jackson Browne wrote that verse
Takes me back to the old days... 45 years ago. Performing and traveling internationally.
All these years later... some friends gone forever, some recently reconnected. Old friends
are good for healing. Life was free, and simpler.
"Each day was different, and life was a thrill. Ya' knew tomorrow would be better still.
Josh, I've been following you for about three years. I'm 67 yrs old, and I am certain you and the cat on the acoustic are going to spin heads out there. I grew up in Gainesville, Fla. practiced guitar with Tom Petty and Don Felder circa (1962-1964). I know talent. You cats have the whole nine yards! Thumbs up!
Whats in the water down in Gainesville? So much Talent came out of that area.
just like Houston Texas to especially in the psychedelic era I don't know what was in the water down there...
It's an absolute miracle that this hasn't been taken down by The Eagles. They took down my cover of Hotel California that I did with my granddad. They're assholes.
P.s. absolutely amazing cover as always
A worker at a show told me they weren't aloud to make eye contact with them... hopefully they are changing in their old age.
@@donchristianmusic9353 Don Henley is the main reason to why they take it down
The Eagles have always been up their own Arses.....
I made a cover of Tequila Sunrise and they took it down too...
Looks like it wasn't that easy, looking at the intro roll.
This is BY FAR the BEST cover of this CLASSIC. Its a suoerb nod to the original and original in its own right. Bravo boys!
Without a doubt!
Why do you southern hicks insist on calling grown men "boys"?
Especially the guitar intro, it echoes nostalgia these guys are good
Jackson Browne's version is damn good.
Two musicians nailing a song usually performed by a stage full of players.
The most positive comment section ever. That's what good music does to people.
After seeing this, I just had to buy a Telecaster
I've now watched about 20 of Josh's videos, & I take back everything I've ever said about "young people today."
Your generation is probably the one that fucked the world up and put it where it is today, young people today are cleaning up the mess your generation has made
No shit, can't help but love these young men
@@oscarpye8151 ... ROFL
Chris Nedbalek Me too!
Nick burcham My thoughts, exactly.
Man, this guy can sing... Gousebumps right at the beginning. And believe me, I'm not a sentimental guy.
Their parents raised these killer young men correctly--kudos to your folks and mentors----
Josh - YOU TWO shoulda performed the half-time show at the super bowl!
In retrospect yeah this would have been far better than the porno show we got treated to last week.
I come to your videos like a fly to shit. Though this definitely isn't shit. I'm not very good with metaphors.
George Allen LOL
Indeed
A moth to a light, cause it lights up our lives?
Much better haha
Like an ant to sugar?
I just discovered Josh and he is so incredible! The entire group of musicians and singers blows this old hippie away! Thanks folks!
I watch Josh's channel so much that I get nothing else done. And I don't care.
just love the younger generation covering music from my youth --keep it up guys
Every time I think I've found my favorite Josh and Carson cover, I find another. You are both amazing.
Six years, 5.3million views. Looks like WCM making $ on the talent of these two great young musicians. You guys are incredible. Thank you for making my day.
Carson has that great voice timbre that suits the great singer/ songwriter era as well as country classic.
Well done fellas you are lovely to listen to.
So 👏🏼 So 👏🏼 Glad 👏🏼 That 👏🏼 This 👏🏼 Is 👏🏼 Still 👏🏼 Available 👏🏼
Take it easy is one of my most favorite tracks of the eagles. I saw the title of this video and said to myself "meh,I'll give it a try,then listen to the original"....that was that...its been over 30 minutes this shit is on repeat...
What a refreshing surprise to these old ears. well done 👏 young folks much love from Nova Scotia Canada 🇨🇦
I'd like to think that Jackson & Glenn are sitting around, drinking a beer, watching this video...and seeing a little of themselves in these 2 ♥♥
I think you guys are great. what seems a lifetime ago. my good friend, Ian and I played together like you two. we were not as good as you but we loved what we did. however life, work, family commitments got in the way. have not seen him for for 30 years, although we have spoken on the phone, we live in different countries. But i see that same frienfship in your eyes that we had. That is what comes though in your singing. alone you are both good, together you great. But ,hay what do I know. wish you both all the best wherever life takes you.,
Paul Roberts i hope one day you'll play again with your friend! there's nothing better than play with a very good friend!
Paul Roberts playing with a good friend makes a soulful music.
Paul Roberts I agree with everything you pointed out Paul. I've been following Carson & Josh since 2010 (a little more Josh because he's easier to find on TH-cam) have enjoyed all of they've material. I too had a dear friend that we play from church baptisms to funerals then I got drafted and he went off to be a priest. There's nothing like a partners reunion, you can see it in their faces ....keep it up guys your great, thanks Paul for your insight
PR.... you are a helluva guy for having it in you to do and tell that.
Paul, my friend Linda and I used to play together when we were teenagers and then life happened and we completly lost track of each other for almost 35 years. I found her on FB, married to a musician friend I knew in college (small world) and just last month went to visit them. They have a band called "Vintage Blonde" you can see them on YT. One of the happiest and most emotional moments of my life came when she and I were sitting in her living room and 35 years after we played it the first time, picked up our guitars and played Dylan's "I'll be your baby tonight". No rehearsal. No discussion. The years just melted away. We were, for those 3 minutes, 16 again. Luckily her wife took a video (which I didn't even notice at the time) and you can actually see the transformation on our faces.
Do what you have to, to make it happen. It will feed your soul!
Looks like Steve Jobs and Bill Gates jammin' and taking it easy. Good stuff guys.
They have only taken nerd form because humanity is not ready and might be frightened.
Ha!
gosh damn that's spot on....
Almost dead ringers... Time warp...
Lol
Carson looks like a young Michael Caine and Josh is literally the new Ferris Bueller............and, two of the most talented young artists you'll find today. Big fan!!
I've been playing and singing for a loooong time -- and I've seen all manner of musicians. You two have *all* the right things going - absolutely perfect stuff.
I must say I really like Carson’s singing
Heard the first chord strummed, pressed thumbs up immediately
Ridiculously good.
Hey Josh I discovered your channel by accident, wow man it is amazing to see young people playing music from 20 and more years before they were born, and how, some of your songs, are better than the originals. I was born exactly 50 years before you, and you are nearly a copy of me. Keep them coming, Regards Gerard from Melbourne, Australia, originally from Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
I'm blown away over your skills. Both of you will definitely make it in the music industry... Together or individually. Be careful of greedy shady agents, gold digging women and peer pressure. Most of all stay humble and honest. I'd give anything to be in your shoes.... Young and overflowing in talent. Good luck guys!
You should call yourselves the Holly Buddy's. I think you know why.
Well said.
Doug Pratt, Atlanta, Georgia, USA
@@edouglaspratt Just wondering my man do you always sign of a comment like that? Genuinely curious, its cool.
Gosh I hope they stay out of the “music industry”. Horrible business.
Keep making TH-cam videos and retain your sanity and love of making music.
Talent isnt recquired y music nowadays
When you two sing is the Best! Rock on!
Carson and Josh and y’all do you know how much your voices and your playing that sweet music brings joy into our lives?? I hope so. The Other Favorites should be called My Favorites oh wait they are. Thank you so very much. I’m sure I speak for many. I’ve never ever heard anything I didn’t love that you have produced. I’m wishing you amazing times, health, happiness and prosperity ❤️💯❤️
wanna hear something great? Check these guys doin other stuff; TH-cam and others
especiLLY like (take id Easy) and the Statler bros, Great tune "Flozse on the wazLL or what ever they callrd iy in the 6-0s maybe nothi to do
THE best cover I've ever seen/heard. Period!
Well, I'm running down the road
tryin' to loosen my load
I've got seven women on
my mind,
Four that wanna own me,
Two that wanna stone me,
One says she's a friend of mine
Take It easy, take it easy
Don't let the sound of your own wheels
drive you crazy
Lighten up while you still can
don't even try to understand
Just find a place to make your stand
and take it easy
Well, I'm a standing on a corner
in Winslow, Arizona
and such a fine sight to see
It's a girl, my Lord, in a flatbed
Ford slowin' down to take a look at me
Come on, baby, don't say maybe
I gotta know if your sweet love is
gonna save me
We may lose and we may win though
we will never be here again
so open up, I'm climbin' in,
so take it easy
Well I'm running down the road trying to loosen
my load, got a world of trouble on my mind
lookin' for a lover who won't blow my
cover, she's so hard to find
Take it easy, take it easy
don't let the sound of your own
wheels make you crazy
come on baby, don't say maybe
I gotta know if your sweet love is
gonna save me, oh oh oh
Oh we got it easy
The note he sings when he says mind right at the beginning is so beautiful. I've replayed that beginning verse over and over
Okay, so he drums he sings and he plays guitar. Lead guitar is on point as well. This is beautiful
These guys are incredibly blessed to have found each other in life. Nothing like jamming out with your best bud
He said "half a decade" like it's a long time. I'm so so old.
I feel ya man
Scott Sweet haha so true
I was thinking Van Halen 1 was 40 years old - who would have thought Eruption would be a golden oldie ?
Scott Sweet ii
Its all relative, if you're 20 but die when you're 23 .. well you get it. youth is overrated anyway. not understanding life, having the wisdom you have by say 30 onwards .. health is what matters:)
I can remember half a century well. (sigh) In fact, I remember when this song came out.
In recent times, I've been listening to this version more than the Eagles' versions of the song on TH-cam. I think that says it all. Josh's backing vocals were sublime right throughout the second verse ("Arizona .."slowing down to take a look at me").
Guy’s, you are not afraid to take old songs and add your style. You know how many really enjoy your songs.
do lyin' eyes! love this
After seeing this, I just had to buy a Telecaster
sameeee
My first guitar I've ever bought was a Fender Tele. I'm still playing every day on her.
Tim S how do I delete someone else’s comment?
Taylor Robinson ikr? Jeff Gaumond’s comment is pretty bad, people these days you know?
Tim S not exactly the comment I was thinking of but ok
In a world filled with so much negativity at the moment... I can't even begin to explain how much I've been lifted reading all the positive comments and listening to you guys nail one of my favourite songs.
Boy, do I love this song
Austin powers and Clark kent was amazing collaborate 😊
The Eagles are the best band ever. You two are closing in on them. Such talent and getting better every time I see your videos.
The guy on the left has a phenomenal voice! I don’t like when people try to put on the country accent when singing but it seems natural to him.
Mr.Turner played flawlessly last nice again.
MK it is a natural accent...he is from North Carolina.
Saturday night ln lockdown lreland. Found yous love it.
Just found them too in Johannesburg, South Africa!
I love Josh and Carson’s videos. I just realized a big smile is spreading across my face as I’m watching this. Great work guys, as always!
A big thanks to Jackson Browne for handing a partially completed song to Glenn Fry which eventually found its way into the voices, guitars and hearts of Josh and Carson. Outstanding job gentlemen!
Written when he was even younger than these guys
Proving once again that nerds can rock:)
I remember thus song. Thank you for playing it again. Great nemories
Great song for you two. Carson, your voice really made this song.
Hey!! You guys are simply the best! Down to earth and good in a sincere way!
I listened to this music when I was your age. Thanks for playing it
i love that the kids are playing this!
Always a great day when there's a new Josh & Carson video. The male Reina del Cid and Toni Lindgren!
I thought I was the only one that followed Josh T and Reina del Cid and Toni Lindren.
After The Beatles, I always considered Eagles as one of the most amazing bands ever. Thank you Josh,!
Amazing harmony vocals, you guys rock!
Now you've done it--my eyes are pourin' and I can't catch my breath!!
oh boy, you guys flash me all the way back in 2002, that was my first year in a secondary school in a small town in China. One day I accidentally bought a CD from the only music shop in the town, and lord, it changed me forever. Now I have left China and lived in Europe for more than 10 years, and listening to your beautiful voices singing the first song on that CD. Thank you.
I have been waiting so long for you guys to cover the eagles. You both have the perfect voice to cover the eagles hope to see more in the future.
Wonderful talent! Refreshing to see young talented musicians making real music. 😊
Your vocals are fresh, but at the same time true to the original. I enjoyed every second of this. So we’ll done, so talented. Thank you for sharing your performance.
I'll just tell you, i"m not the guy who often puts comments but guys you changed my life. Everytime I'm sad or something shit is happening I listen to your covers. Trust me, if you ever do an album I'll be the first one to buy it. Greetings from a French guy in the Netherlands!
Such a hard song to cover and do it any justice. That being said this was fantastic!
I've come back to listen to this cover many times and it always manages to put a smile across my face....
takes me way back to my early days guys. Best memories ever. Thank so much.Greetings from The Netherlands.
Guys, that was flawless. You did a perfect job. Well done!
It's amazing to see these young generations singing 30 years old songs
Actually closer to 45 years old...maybe closer to 50 but 45 for sure.
@@chaosh7040 you are completely right
Perfect blending of voices and music. You two make the perfect musical duo. My favorite is Moonlight in Vermont. Of course, I have about 20 other favorites! Thank You.
I see what you did there. "I have about 20 _other favorites_ !"
Dudes ! First time i see a bend an the flat e string at 3:34 !! Great tune my friends !!👍
impressive how dense and huge two guitars and two voices can sound!!!
Have seen The Eagles many, many, MANY times live. First time was them being the backup band to Linda Ronstadt at MO State Fair to the last show Glenn and The Eagles ever played together in Arkansas.
We had no clue he was sick...😞
I do think that Gienn and the guys would approve!! ❤️. Flat Out Righteous !!!! 👍🏻🤘🏻👍🏻.
The pure enjoyment in this performance is amazing
Carson makes it sound like a country version of Take it easy. Its great!
Amazing fellas.
what i like about you guys is you have your own voice, you don't try to sound like anyone else. it's a very unique and very good voice.
Glad to see it wasn't taken down
Thanks guys..brilliant as ever..
You guys don't need shows!!! This kind of format is great!!!
Uh, so glad to still be able to listen to this. There's so much soul in your playing. I love how happy you two sound in this the other favorites era. You were clearly having a blast.
God almighty who are these cat's WOW!!! Subbed
pure joy...this is exactly what it is all about...pure joy.
The way your voices sound together is just astonishing
My favourite Eagles song. Quite possibly the best cover too.
As a fan of The Eagles I thought this was great ! I always wait fro the bit that goes ' I was Standing on a Corner in Winslow , Arizona ' .
Scooby1 There is actually a statue on a corner in Winslow, AZ to commemorate this.
Excellent! Beautiful American music with expressive American voices. I like the sound of the Telecaster.
Carson and Josh I love the way you do it, the voices the harmonies the poly-rhythms great technical musician skills to give it your own flavour. Support you ever and a day.
I’ve watched this maybe a thousand times, and i just smile every time. I aspire to be at the guitar level as you guys and think you sound absolutely amazing. I’d even go to say perfect
It's a pretty incredible cover, isn't it.
