Gett Off (Housestyle)-how great is this song?

I was at youtube.com and i watched the house mix of "Gett Off" and i think this version is better than the original and might have been a bigger hit if pushed better by Warner Bros. Is the other 3 remixes of "Gett Off" as good as this?

It's fucking awesome. Steve "Silk" Hurley is a monster. I love all the remixes of "Gett Off." But "Violet The Organgrinder" is in a category all its own. drool

I just pulled this maxi-cd out a couple days ago...and I also think "Housestyle" is awesome! Probably my favorite track on there.

One of my alltime favorite songs....
Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind.

Everything about that maxi single was freaking fabulous. I remember peeing in my pants in excitement when I bought it on release day...long before Diamonds and Pearls was released. I was like, "Holy hell...if this is just a maxi single, imagine what the album is going to be like!"

Unfortunately, I washed the pee out of my pants with the vomit resulting from hearing "Jughead."

Housestyle is one hell of a remix.

Isn't it great? I don't know about it being bigger than the original Gett Off but it is cool.

I've got it, Violet the organ Grinder and Gangster Glam rock.
I just totally love that single, I think I listened to it more than the D&P album.
