The original version found on the "Believe" album is a ballad. When this song was release as a single, they used the Emilio Estefan mix

I happened to hear the remix prior to the original version so now everytime the ballad is on it sounds like a messed up cassette chainsaw

it's still produced as a mid-tempo dance number.

I liked this album and this song when it first came out. I'm scared to listen to it now.

yes, it really is. it's a "ballad" the same way "La Isla Bonita" is a ballad.
