"Hole in the World" is a song by the Eagles, written by Don Henley and Glenn Frey, in response to the September 11, 2001 attacks and subsequent war on Iraq,[1] released in 2003.
This is the first Eagles recording without guitarist Don Felder since 1974, and it was released as a DVD single with some bonus tracks: the "Hole in the World" Stereo Mix & 5.1 Multichannel track, the video, outtakes from the video and a trailer for the DVD Farewell 1 Tour-Live from Melbourne.
"Hole in the World" appears on the 2003 compilation album The Very Best Of, as well as the DVD (only in the first edition). It was also included as a bonus track on the Deluxe Edition of the 2007 album Long Road Out of Eden.
It was nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals in 2004.
