Don Henley為著作權提告

前 Eagles團員Don Henley十月八日在加州地方法院對Henley襯杉的製造商th Duluth 貿易公司提告，主要因為它的廣告標語"Don a Henley and take it easy"中的"Take It Easy"是Eagles合唱團的暢銷曲歌名，然而這首歌是Jackson Browne 與 Eagles的另一名團員Glenn Frey所寫的，而且是Glenn所唱的，但Don Henley認為侵犯Eagles的著作權而提告。

Don Henley 1947年出生於德州Gilmer，是Eagles合唱團的主唱之一及鼓手，原於1970年代初期有自己的樂團Shiloh，後來因與Glenn Frey一起在Linda Ronstdat的和聲樂隊工作而認識，哥倆又找了Randy Meisner與Bernie Leadon組成了Eagles合唱團。

Don Henley 1982年開始個人的歌唱事業，有六首排行榜前十名的歌，其中名次最高的是1992年獲得六週第二名，與Patty Smyth合唱的絕妙情歌Sometimes Love Just Ain't Enough，而他在歷年暢銷歌星排行榜則獲得第229名。

Sometimes Love Just Ain't Enough

Patti Smyth With Don Henley

 

Now, I don't want to lose you, but I don't want to use you

just to have somebody by my side.

And I don't want to hate you,

I don't want to take you, but I don't want to be the one to cry.

 

And that don't really matter to anyone anymore.

But like a fool I keep losing my place

and I keep seeing you walk through that door.

 

(Chorus)

 

But there's a danger in loving somebody too much,

and it's sad when you know it's your heart you can't trust.

There's a reason why people don't stay where they are.

Baby, sometimes, love just aint enough.

 

Now, I could never change you, I don't want to blame you.

Baby, you don't have to take the fall.

Yes, I may have hurt you, but I did not desert you.

Maybe I just want to have it all.

 

It makes a sound like thunder, it makes me feel like rain.

And like a fool who will never see the truth,

I keep thinking something's gonna change.

 

(Chorus)

 

And there's no way home, when it's late at night and you're all alone.

Are there things that you wanted to say?

And do you feel me beside you in your bed,

there beside you, where I used to lay?

 

And there's a danger in loving somebody too much,

and it's sad when you know it's your heart they can't touch.

There's a reason why people don't stay who they are.

Baby, sometimes, love just ain't enough.

 

Baby, sometimes, love... it just ain't enough.

Oh, Oh, Oh, No.
