Karma? As if to say, I must be the biggest idiot in the world. She told me once that she would like to see the man that this girl would Marry! Low and behold it turned out to be me! She just stood there in the restaurant looking at this girl dumbfounded. Oh she said how beautiful and fine this girl was. The one she was telling me about when we were together. Turns out two years later, we met in a fried chicken place and I was with a young woman I would marry. Because the song reaches down deep into your heart and stirs such strong emotion! I know that there is no way that she did not think about me every time from then on when she heard, Take it to the limit. And the last time in late January 1976, I told her to remember me when she would hear this song. I knew that at any time she would be gone, so I would play this song every time we make love. She reminded me of Jenny in Forrest Gump. Sam from LaWhen this song came out in November 1975, I was dating a younger woman 17.His fame was a blessing and a curse for a young farmers son from Nebraska. For a number of years during his rise to stardom, he was still married but I think he felt trapped and unbalanced from that marriage even before he divorcedi He was a beautiful man, a kind and incredibly talented man that fame somewhat stole part of the good fortune in his life. The song is about our free and easy lifestyle and his struggle to be a married man. along with the sexual intonation.of going to the limit. April from Currently N Ga, From Sedalia MissouriI'm pretty sure that Randy was singing about his confusion over other young women he met while performing, his slightly promiscous lifestyle on the road while his marriage to his high school sweetheart was crumbling.He was a young man with a lot of women crazy about him, he had married a high school sweetheart that he somewhat grew out of as he became famous but true to his MidWest roots, and considering he had kids, Randy was somewhat stuck in that situation while the rest of world was living the Free Spirit Lifestyle. He couldn't expose those details at the time he wrote the song. I put in another comment earlier that I feel is the real state of mind behind that song. He wasn't old at all when he wrote that song. April Herrett from North GeorgiaI don't think Randy was shooting us a straight story when he mentioned the getting old thing and doing something for the last time.Thank you for the music and rest in peace, Glenn Frey. “Get Over It” quickly became a fan favourite and is now a modern classic.
