If you like this track then you are either a Noob or you've been brainwashed by Armin and Tiesto. Those are your choices... pick one.

If you argue otherwise, then this will be used against you as evidence that you are in fact a noob or brainwashed. See they have all the bases covered ;)


:rolleyes: I do belive that most ppl are stating thier opinion of the track which is fair comment, it matters not how long you have been into trance as to wether you like it or not.

I merely prefer Ferry's remix of Adagio.
I remember so vividly the 1st time i heard it and the emotions i felt when hearing it, tiesto's version did not do the same thing for me.
But Ferry's version has stood the test of time, his version can still evoke the emotions i felt from when i first heard it.

There is of course another 2004 remake of Adagio for Strings which IMO is also better than tiesto's remake and that is the Mat Silver & Tony Burt remake of Adagio For Strings.

check out this sample

And if you like it, it can be bought from Above The Sky Records

I will agree to all your logic Neo.

However, there are a variety of different arguments being used in this thread. Is it reasonable to assume that in my one post I am addressing everyone? Such an assumption does my post and yours a disservice. The response you quoted of mine was directed at the people whose argumentation lacked depth and interest such as:

it is an overrated piece of cheese. thats why its in the asot top 20.


Its this kind of knee jerk post that these forums are full of and which contribute nothing to the discussion at hand.

Can you see with posts like that how I might be prompted to respond in the way I have?

This song does major.. MAJOR damage on the dance floor.

I love it when this track is dropped in a club..which isnt always..

Because the registration date on an Internet BB determines how much you know... What are you 12? :rolleyes:

None of us actually said that. Maybe it's the fact that everybody progresses in taste & sounds and before 2002 the trance was on the whole much better than the stuff put out now on shows like ASOT.

That doesn't mean we're all evil or going to take over the world, it just means we have opinions, and since we've all been here longer, we've seen it all, people arguing points, people talking cod and missing the point like you've done here, and much more.

If you don't like all our opinions, put us on ignore, it doesn't bother any of us, as you rarely bring anything into discussions that nobody else can do.

The main thing about most of the points you've objected to is that they're all good points, they give reasons (for example me saying the tunes 2 years ago that armin played were much better) so you're making a storm in a tea cup here and ruining a thread, like many 'n00bs' and post 2003 people like you do

(i'd best point out that im being sarcastic there before you go crying to somebody)

And since you're trying to be the police here, check your sig out, it's too deep ;)

I don't really know why, but i guess it's because he still can play most stuff he likes and also promote some music for his own label and offcourse ASOT gives him alot of attention and he thanks alot of his success to the show.

If it was 100% for the music then the show would be completely different, but i guess you can't be in the top of the dj list and earn enough when you do everything you really would like to do.


thanks to yourself & kraze for putting a decent answer to my question... still would be nice if we saw the old armin who was able to play more than fluff, and could play a bit deeper and darker and was less predictable
