You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

The Erich B & Rakim one is absolutely awesome

Top of my head - the following are great 12 inch / long versions:

MAW - Black Gold of the Sun

Duran Duran - Wild Boys

Billy Idol - White Wedding; To Be A Lover

Undisputed Truth: You + Me = Love

Donna Summer - MacArthur Park

Edwin Star - Whirlpool (Get Up) / H.A.P.P.Y Radio

New Order - Blue Monday

Propaganda - Dr. Mabuse

Small Town Boy - Bronski Beat

Some great choices, but i think Rock Me Amadeus was MUCH better in the original European mix.

and about Duran Duran, I'd add The Reflex (single's a remix compared to album version - hope it wasn't the other way around)

Totally agree with Paid In Full as everybody mentions. Bought the 12" twice back in the days.

Also listened a lot to a specific mix of Depeche Mode's Shake the Disease and Talk Talk's It's My Life (cant tell you out of my head which one)
and Ma Foom Bay - Cultural Vibe

and so many others...

Just wanted to say I loved the WBBD Bootcity remix album. I have the 12" with those versions but the album plays very well.

Puff Daddy? If so, I'm more familiar with the Weird Al version than the original song. That tends to be the case with a lot of Al's later parodies

Pretty much anything by The Reflex on his Youtube channel. A label should release his mixes.

My All/Stay A While (So So Def Remix) [Remake of Loose Ends "Stay A While]- Mariah Carey


Something Beautiful Remains (Joe's Urban Mix) - Tina Turner


Golden Eye (Urban A/C Mix) [sampling The Gap Band "Outstanding"] - Tina Turner


Love You All My Lifetime (Love Suite Mix Opus Part 1) - Chaka Khan
