Despite the fact that the actual lyrics were trite as could be, the actual vocals were excellent and they complemented a tune that would have otherwise been bordering on monotony.
As much as I think Cosmic Gate make some quality productions, this remix brings absolutely nothing new to the table that the original didn't have...Just a basic formulaic remix that lacks all the complementing features.

original is better
the remix isn't bad but seems to me to be just kind of generic tech-trance with a breakdown that is waaayyyy to long
Good, but not as good as the "Thrillseekers Remix" IMO. It's quite hard to find. I had it at one time but it must have gotten deleted (may still have it on the computer downstairs). I guess I prefer the uplifting, early-morning melodic feel of the Thrillseekers to the slightly darker Cosmic Gate remix but it's probably a good second. I agree with whoever said the original mix is mediocre and I think the vocal mix is downright awful. The Sean Tyas remix cuts the cake though...a complete waste.
what the fuck is with that horn.. what a way to ruin the start of a new phrase

just as a matter of curiosity, what *could* it bring to the table that the original didn't have?
i'd have thought completely changing the style & structure would be enough, as well as adding one of the chunkiest sounding basslines of the year & a killer buildup that was absent from the original. hell it's completely unrecogniseable up until 4:30..
i think the thrillseekers remix was better than the original too, but this is by far my favourite

Exactly nothing, so why bring it?
