Originals Or Remixes

Marty's Photo Marty 24 Sep 2007

I, personally, love the originals. I bought all of the albums for that reason. The greatest hit compilations have mostly remixes, which is really sad. The remixes do not carry that quality as the originals do. I guess it is nice to hear a different side of your favorite songs, but there is no way that they are even close. What do you all think?

Richard, you are one of my heroes, but leave those recordings alone!

I like the originals mostly!

I don't think I ever heard the originals til the last year. I only had previous CDs that had the remixes. There are some songs where a remix will add something but I like hearing the songs that Karen only ever knew too.

My logic is this: I've heard all the originals that have been released. So when I buy a new compilation and hear a new remix, I still get that giggity feeling that I'm hearing something I've never heard. For that reason, I like the remixes. Not necessarily more than the originals, but I like them.

That's how I feel. Some remixes are interesting to listen to, but there are some that are just like "what?".

I don't sleep, I only sleep around 2-3 hours. I can't sleep, so what's the point in trying, you know? Sometimes I get really tired out, but other days I can stay up and up. smile.gif
