Paul Oakenfold-Southern Sun, not as good as all the hype

I hate to be the one to go against the grain but here it goes.

The tune is not bad at all but at the same time it's not as good as everyone has hyped it up to be.

The tune itself has alot of potential but the tiesto and dresden remixes don't do it any justice. Leave it to Tiesto to give it the "same sh*t, different day" treatment.

What this tune desperately needed was a nice hook to compliment the vocals (the hook was already in the vocals!)

they should've gave it to Tandu instead.

Sometimes a tune desperately needs a remix that can take it to stardom, and this tune is definitely one of them.

They could have given it too gigi d'agostino but he hasnt time to remix it, so then instead Tiesto did a remix

Im not hyping it up to be the greatest tune ever, but I really enjoy this track. All I have is the Tiesto mix, so I dont know what the original sounds like (I shall have to dl it).

The vocals are what gets me going the most, and I feel that Tiesto complimented them with a decent uplifting background.

If anyone knows the lyrics themselves (my ears are bad after years of trance), I would love to know them. Thanks.
