This review is from: Amazing Pt.2 (Audio CD)

I love a good remix where the dj or producer has listened to the song, then listened again. Then listened 1 more time. Then one can get the feel of the song as it exists and see alternatives branch out before you. Much like a trip to a new place, you use the path you're shown then you try different routes to get there. You get different scenery, you understand the outlying geography better, details jump out, background becomes foreground, perspective enriches the view. This isn't what I have here. I have a bus ride and not the kind where the driver calls out points of interest. These kind of remixes give me the impression that some people have a backstock of beats that vocals are simply laid atop and call it a day. The beats themselves aren't bad, they just don't add to the original or offer an alternate view. It's like having your picture taken at Sears and they have the windowshade pull-down background. It's just there as filler, having nothing to do with the subject.

I don't want it to seem that this particular disc is the only one guilty of this crime,Homogenity as an art form, but hearing the original and this being the work of George Michael (an artist truly worthy of the term) I expect, hell even hope, that a remixer would bring hir "A" game.
