Hell Freezes Over DVD Survivor Game

[scottside]

I vote for GET OVER IT for the win. I like TAKE IT EASY best when all three are playing electric guitars and they rock it out as in HOTE and the version on the LIVE album. This version is excellent, but not my favorite. And with GOI, we got the excitement of hearing a new song at the time.

Get Over It to win.

I will probably surprise some as most of you all know TIE is my all time favorite Eagles song. I love it and it's a great performance, but I vote for

GET OVER IT for the win!

It's a new song and it rocks and it shows the guys still had it!

I love Don's fist pump and attitude too!

I'm going to give my reasons for both songs then I'm going to say which one I voted for.

Take It Easy: This is the song that brought them back together just only 4 months earlier thanks to Travis Tritt. What I like about this performance. They were having fun. They finally let loose after majority of the special was soo slow and dragging. And when Glenn said "And here's how it all started." They kicked it into high gear. I love when Don H was laughing at whatever that was said. Don H was soo into the song at the end. His hair was flying everywhere. I loved the extended guitar solo in this version. Joe was killing it on the guitar. One of the best performance of the night. A kick ass performance.

Get Over It: What can I say about this song. This was a kick ass performance too. They were having soo much fun. This has to be my favorite new song from the DVD. Don was soo animated with hands in this song. I loved how all three of the guitar players had solos. They were having fun, fun, fun. Other than Dirty Laundry on the Farewell 1 DVD, I don't think there isn't another song where all three of the guitar player doing their own solos by themselves and not together. I also love from HOTE how the song got together. Both Glenn and Don were nervous that to come together with their ideas and thank goodness they both listen to each other because I thought it was a great song and like somebody said, its underrated.

It wasn't hard with my pick to win because I wanted this song to win from the beginning and I'm glad it did made the finals.

The song I vote for is Get Over It. There was no ins, ands or buts about my pick. It was just hard for me to pick which song to go to the finals with. So I pick the song I wish they still play.

Wow, surprised all the votes GOI is getting! Great song....and certainly a worthy winner.

The version of TIE on here though is without a doubt the best, including all of their 70s versions with different lineup. It takes a mild country song and adds some much-needed girth and rawness to it. That solo that Dreamer talks about during the "oooh oooh" part by Joe is simply fabulous. It really shows that Joe can pretty much take any good country tune and make it even better.

I like country, but mostly when it hits hard and LOUD - not pretty stuff or stuff that is melancholic. For instance, I prefer guys like Dwight Yoakam over guys like Merle Haggard or Hank Williams Sr. Dwight was LOUD and proud. I'm actually seeing him tonight in concert. I'm just not a fan of mild music... My mild is most people's rockin' music!

For me it's

TAKE IT EASY

for the win!

I love Take It Easy and the HFO version is great but GOI just rocks!!
It shows that they can really rock it out when they want to and they looked like they had a great time performing it

On the 20th anniversary of the release of this DVD, the tribe has declared the survivor in the Hell Freezes Over DVD Survivor game. It came down to these two wonderful performances, and the truth is they are both winners. Take It Easy, you were a worthy competitor, but as you know, we may lose and we may win. In the end, only one can make the most of their winning streak. So congratulations to the performance that can wave victory like a flag and wear it like a crown is ...

Awesome! Well-deserved!

Wouldn't it be fantastic if they did this live again sometime?

Thank you so much, dreamer, for all your hard work!!

Yehaw!!! Congrats to Get Over It!!! When we started this game a month ago, I wanted Get Over It go all the way and it did. I was very scared that it would be eliminated early in the game since all the new songs were eliminated early. It went against a veteran song and they both were great performance, but seeing the guys having fun, Glenn/Don F/Joe having their own guitar solo and Don H getting his point across about daytime tv, I loved it better.

Have we played the Hell Freezes Over DVD Survivor Game before and if we did, we won then.

I think I will pop my DVD in. Congrats again, Get Over It!!!
