I think it sounds great, it could be really big for her.

Hard to judge the actual song based on that remix. Let's wait and see...

It's fair to say that was pretty awesome. Hope the original is better though.

What's the point of releasing a remix to be the first impression? Odd move.

Sounds like it could be good. Hard to tell.

Glad she was going for the "elephant in the room" angle, and not using it as a metaphor/euphemism for anything.

Wait...why the heck does this have so much auto-tune on it? I thought she was supposed to be one of the "best vocal talents in the UK". Lol.

Unless of course the auto-tune is only on the remix, but I honestly can't remember the last time I heard a remix that did that. I'll reserve proper judgement until I've heard the real thing but it just seems weird to me. Are you guys listening to the same thing as me? I seriously wonder...

to draw attention to the beat. club remixes tend to have more focus on the song itself rather than the singer. it reminds me of avicii with levels. killer beat with minimum vocals. i prefer this, its like mariah carey's dreamlover remix. a totally separate version of the song and it sounds like it was especially created for this purpose. she knows what she's doing by the sound of things! oh and i wouldnt say autotune, it sounds more like a vocoder, or her vocals have been suppressed, they still sound brill though.

WOW!! Insane beat!! I love it!! I'm guessing the auto tune is just on the remix, as the remix hardly contains much singing either.

Don't know what to think, it has an awesome beat but there's not many lyrics/much singing to judge properly.

When are we going to hear the proper version?

early feb. its out on the 26th of feb. having radio airplay now could mean big first week sales/poor first week sales as illegal downloading could happen instead. so it'll be added to radios in a few weeks.

There's no way we'll be left with a remix until February. Next week I think we'll get the full proper version of the single. That will hit radio. Then in the first week of Feb I think we'll get the video.

Cher will peak earlyish I reckon even though the Astro version is out that week, people will just download the one off her album...

Errr 'elephant in the room' is a metaphor, albeit a very commonly used one.

This line is still stuck in my head....I can't wait for the single mix. Ms. Burke is back with a pretty massive bang!
