<Li> "Try and Love Again" </Li> <Li> "The Last Resort" </Li> <P> "The Last Resort" is a song written by Don Henley and Glenn Frey, which tells about how man inevitably destroys the places he finds beautiful . It was originally released on the Eagles' album Hotel California on December 8, 1976 . It was subsequently released as the B - side of "Life in the Fast Lane" single on May 3, 1977 . </P> <P> In a 1978 interview with Rolling Stone, Henley said: "' The Last Resort', on Hotel California, is still one of my favorite songs...That's because I care more about the environment than about writing songs about drugs or love affairs or excesses of any kind . The gist of the song was that when we find something good, we destroy it by our presence--by the very fact that man is the only animal on earth that is capable of destroying his environment . The environment is the reason I got into politics: to try to do something about what I saw as the complete destruction of most of the resources that we have left . We have mortgaged our future for gain and greed ." </P>
