"One Of These Nights" By The Eagles Video Showcase

"One of These Nights" is a song written by Don Henley and Glenn Frey and recorded by the American rock band Eagles.

The title track off of their One of These Nights album, the song became their second single to top the Billboard Hot 100 chart and also helped propel the album to number one.

The single version was shortened from the album version of the song, removing most of the song's intro and most of its' fade-out, as well. According to songwriter Glenn Frey, the song is about putting things off.

"We've all said, 'one of these nights I'm gonna do something -- get that girl, make that money, find that house. We all have our dreams - a vision we hope will come true someday. When that 'someday' will come is up to each of us." The B-side, "Visions", features lead vocals by guitarist Don Felder, and is the only Eagles song to do so.

The song contains many instances of alliteration, or sets of words with similar beginning sounds. Examples are "wicked wind whispers," "the wrong and the right," and "waiting for a woman." Source: Wikipedia - One of These Nights (song)
