10 Amazing Songs That Were Never Performed Live

10. My Man - Eagles

A lot of the draw that came with the Eagles was their pure synergy whenever they took to the stage. Though their lethargic look onstage was never going to fly in the MTV generation, you didn't really need to show off when you had songs that sounded this good to begin with. It only starts to get complicated when the song actually hits a little too close to the bone.

During the touring cycles for the album Desperado, Gram Parsons of the Byrds and the Flying Burrito Brothers passed away, which hit everyone in the California rock scene pretty hard. Aside from the Eagles' fixation with the sunshine-y brand of rock, Bernie Leadon was also the lead guitarist of the Burritos for a while, which made him pour out his feelings into song for My Man. As much as this song feels ripped straight from Leadon's broken heart, it's almost understandable as to why it never saw the stage.

Even though there are a lot of sonic similarities between this and something like Tequila Sunrise or Lyin Eyes, it gets a bit more complicated when the characters in these songs have a real name and are no longer here to say anything about it. Still, this is a great eulogy to one of the legends of folk rock and a worthy inclusion for any open mic nights you may have.
