The original version, definitely, the drums were just added to "pop it up", if you will (imo)



To be honest after hearing the radio remix so much it has kinda put me off the song as a whole a bitEdited by: Mrs. M Bellamy

Original. No contest.


I don't mind the remix thouh. But then again, I don't mind anything that has anything remotely to do with Damien (except his smoking...) [img]smileys/smiley9.gif[/img]

dude, the original kicks the remix's ass. like rain said, i do enjoy
listenig to the remix occasionally, when im in a poppy mood.
the album version is better for a poopy mood, or, jst any other
time i guess... haha. but yeah, go original!

Definitely the original. I don't like the remix too much.

Original deffo...Must admit do get a bit bitter when the radio version is on all the time and bandwaggon jumpers reckon they love damien cos they like that song. I know that makes me a bad person[img]smileys/smiley17.gif[/img]and it is just cos its a great song and people are going to like it the more it gets played. Just hope the new fans dont all turn up at gigs and talk all through them[img]smileys/smiley19.gif[/img]


By the way Im new to this forum Hi![img]smileys/smiley1.gif[/img]

Witch doctor??? lol.


I don't think Damien needs to worry about the "record company stiffs" anymore. I think Damien made a deal with the devils, didn't he? They can release the remix, but they're never to bother him about such things. [img]smileys/smiley36.gif[/img]

even for a remix it's not all that good - ie. the remix of josh ritters 'come and find me' is actually pretty nice. oh well, he just wanted to make them stop doing them , so he chose that one, it seems. good riddance anyway. (of future remixes i mean)

But also on the CD is a remixed version of the Bic Runga single, Something Good - it is shockingly awful, i really love that song but now have to skip it everytime i listen to the album! [img]smileys/smiley7.gif[/img]
