 Bullcrap. Back in 1999 Basement Jaxx refused to remix TGRES, because they instantly recognized it was SHIT. Plenty people would love to tackle his 1980s catalog, but any of the recent stuff? Unless he pays a lot of money, perhaps. Who says Bullcrap ???  I'll die in your arms under the cherry moon... | |

linus4000 said: Militant said: The entire idea of someone not wanting to do a remix because they don't like the original track doesn't make any sense. My cousin is a professional producer and remixer and has been approached by record labels before to do remixes for people like The Fugees and Lady Gaga, and has done so even when he doesn't necessarily like the original song. Because it's an opportunity to make the song better. Thanks Militant...Sometimes facts are helpful;)) I think Prince`s reasons for not letting remix his songs on a regular bases could be that he doesn`t respect modern club music that much or that he`s a bit afraid that it could be in a way better than the original song or be "disrespectful" to the original version....just some ideas,,,,  ...

I bought it a few days after the US-release from an american ebay-seller. Now it's available everywhere as an import. Amazon germany sells it for only 17 euros. http://www.amazon.de/gp/p...d_i=301128 [Edited 8/17/09 10:47am] |

i've seen it in lots of stores in the netherlands got my copy from a friend who got it from a friend, before it hit the retail shelves over here. i like the package, it's nice but it would have been better with an included lyric booklet. and true love lives on lollipops and crisps | |

I think it's brilliant and I guess I'm spoiled to get it the same day of it's release.

A remix?
Why no proper 'B-side'? And a major push? Our local 'Free Record Shop' doesn't even carry CD-singles anymore. So where is he pushing the goods to? Why don't I see the new stuff? Pills and thrills and daffodils will kill... If you don't believe me or don't get it, I don't have time to try to convince you, sorry. | |

There is plenty of stuff since the 80s that would be fabulous remixed. I have been a mix dj all through the techno and house phases. A song can be transformed with a good remix. Go from a slow ballad to 136 beats per minute. Ever heard the remix of "Your Not Alone By Michael Jackson" ? Sub-par song made better. | |
