Eagles new kid in town
A classic!
"New Kid in Town" is a song by the Eagles, from their 1976 album "Hotel California". The song was written by Don Henley and Glenn Frey, and it's one of the band's most popular and enduring songs.
The song tells the story of a newcomer to a small town, who is trying to make a fresh start and leave his past behind. The lyrics are full of nostalgia and longing, with the protagonist reflecting on the changes that have taken place in the town since he arrived.
The song features a memorable guitar riff and a soaring chorus, with Don Henley's distinctive vocals delivering the lyrics. It's a fan favorite and a staple of classic rock radio.
Interestingly, the song was inspired by the Eagles' own experiences as newcomers to Los Angeles in the early 1970s. The band members had all moved to LA from other parts of the country, and they drew on their own feelings of disorientation and adjustment to write the song.
"New Kid in Town" has been certified platinum and has been named one of the greatest songs of all time by various publications, including Rolling Stone and VH1. It's a must-listen for any fan of classic rock or the Eagles!
