    I feel the same way, Troub & FP! I enjoy GYITM. I do keep in mind that is one of Glenn's early compositions when I listen to it.He does a fine job on the vocals, IMHO.

    FNY does nothing for me. Not melodic enough.

    I still don't think it would have hurt if Glenn had sung FNY. I think it would have given it another dimension. But there you are. I'm not crazy about the song either.

    I just logged on after about a week and saw that there's another Survivor game and I had to come here first. I immediately started making my list but I noticed that Get Over It isn't included in this game. Hmm, if I'm not mistaken it's also a non-studio album song too, right? I'm a bit sad to not see it in the game because I think that song totally ROCKS!!

    My vote in this first round is for Get You In The Mood. I do like Glenn's vocals but I think mostly the reason it gets my vote before FNY is because I don't listen to it very much. I will listen to FNY if it's in the rotation on my Eagles playlist but I very rarely listen GYITM. Plus, I gotta agree with Lou about Don's "grunts 'n' groans" on FNY...totally sexy, imo.

    I'm sure when Soda sees your post she will include GOI, Peek.

    He's a bit of a mover in that one too.

    I do like the bluesy sound of GYITM and I can't help but wonder that if it had been produced for inclusion on an album that maybe it would be a better song. As it is I think Glenn's vocals sound rather weak and somewhat off key on the verses (though stronger on the chorus). It might just be this version but whatever the issue its my least favorite song of this Survivor game. However since I think a vote for it would be wasted at this point my vote this round is simply strategic with an eye toward the future and goes to Life's Been Good.

    I wondered the same thing, Peek.

    Awwwww! And I LOVE TGFY! Shows how different we all can be! I'm voting this round for 'Funky New Year'
