I just cant understand what would possess a person to do this to a lovely song?

Just terrible, both of them. In regards to the first one, a little quantizing could have helped...but I guess that's the price you pay for being computer illiterate. And the second one just killed! My eardrums that is...never in a million years would I have thought of remixing a Damo song with the possibility of adding a rap to it. Ew.

the first one cant really be called a remix if its just the song being played alongside a drum loop or whatever it is.... it is truly awful, the only thing good about it is how it makes the cover of the album change, but even then the novelty wore off after 1o seconds...

the second one, however, at least they are doing something different, and as german is my second language, the rap bit is actually damiens bit of I Remember, so its quite clever if you actually understand the words and see what they have done to mix the song. actually, i am joking about that, but i bet it made you respect the song a tiny bit more?! no? :-)

ah man that rap rocks! pity they can't play guitar or sing like seriously did they pick up the guitar that day?!
the first one is literally just a very loud drum beat played over the original recording.................eh...don't think that counts as a remix!
