A decent (if excessively long) cut,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: 99 Red Balloons (MP3 Download)
This is the extended album version of 99 Red Balloons. (It's worth noting that this is the ENGLISH version.) It's not a bad cut, but it's also pretty long, with a lot of instrumental interludes that sort of make the song seem ill-paced. If you really like the synth hooks, you'll like the song, but fans of the politically-charged lyrics might find this version less than satisfying. As far as I know, this is the only English version of this song currently on Amazon.

I was first warned here about the lengthy remix so I went to itunes, played their sample, sounded ok, purchased it for [...] and yup...same crappy remix. So searched and found the 99 Red Balloons by Nena at [...]. Got to listen to the whole song first...it's definitely the popular, original English version 99 Red Balloons (Album Version) 3:51 by Nena on sale for [...]. Got it! : ) I'm still loving Amazon but not liking itunes right now. Unfortunately, [...] is going bye-bye on May 31, 2010 so hurry or keep looking.

This is not the regular English version, but a longer dance remix (which is not as good in my opinion).

I also downloaded this not knowing it's a remix, and not a good one in my opinion. There's nothing in the description to alert you to the fact that you're not buying the original.

Extra Beats!,

The sample sounded fine, but when I bought the song, it came in some weird style with extra beats! I want it replaced with the NORMAL version, which is what I thought I was paying for!

I wanted the original English single release of the song, but apparently it's not available to buy as a single. Instead, this is a lengthy, techno remix with a lot of extra electronic crap that changes the original flavor of the song. I put it on my iPod playlist of favorite all-time rock songs anyway, because the original "99 Red Balloons" belongs there. And this techno version grows on you after a while. All the original vocals and instrumentals remain, and if the techno padding doesn't bother you, it's still a great tune.
