Don Henley of The Eagles recently shared that the song "Best of My Love" reflects the band's struggles with women. He noted that the lyrics were inspired by their feelings of jealousy and insecurity during their youth. Henley explained that while the band often acted cocky, they were actually frustrated young men seeking the attention of women who often rejected them. He acknowledged their immaturity at the time but recognized their flaws. "Best of My Love" became The Eagles' first No. 1 hit on the Billboard Hot 100, staying on the chart for 19 weeks. The song contributed to the success of their album "On the Border," which spent 97 weeks on the Billboard 200.
