Description of Item IS Totally Erroneous, November 30, 2005
This review is from: Celice (Audio CD)
This review is for Celice [CD-SINGLE] [ENHANCED] [IMPORT] ASIN: B000BKUXCE. My parents purchased this CD for me from AMAZON. It is supposed to have the following according to the Product Details:
Celice (Radio Edit)
Celice (Live At Frognerparken)
Celice (Paul Van Dyk Radio Edit)
The Summers Of Our Youth
Video - Celice / Enhanced Material
To my amazement and astonishment it only has two cuts: Celice (Radio Edit) and Celice (Thomas Schumacher Remix) and NO ENHANCED material at all. Do not order this item as listed. I am totally upset and feel that my parents got ripped off big time.

a-ha deserves better, April 15, 2006
This review is from: Celice (Audio CD)
This is a wonderful song marred by the inexplicable failures of the record company to be consistent with the admirable job they did on the full length release. The special version of the album, with the DVD, is an example of a record company fulfilling its obligation to the customers to give them lots of value for their money. This keeps people buying the physical product, as opposed to simply downloading everything.
Why release a two song disc and charge thirteen bucks for it?
Is it to capitalize on the craving for the song at the expense of the customer getting real value. A-ha deserves much better than this.
Stick with the album (which is an amazing accomplishment of creativity) and only buy those "single discs" that give us plenty of music for our money.

Another Gem! Celice Rocks old school. Alternative A-ha, October 25, 2005
I would have given the review a 5, but The Paul Van Dyk remix IMO adds nothing to this song. When I listen to it, it seems like a very uninterested Paul Van Dyk forced a remix out. The version is a sub par with the original. Also its great that they added Celice Live to the Single, but Morten is just struggling to hit those notes live. Sounds like a mouse a bit tonewise and sounds like he is trying to remember the next word of the song.That being said the music sounds great!
That doesn't diminish how great the recorded version of Celice is. In my mind one of their best songs ever! Love the feel of the song, reminiscent of Scoundrel Days without the synths. The Bonus song" Summers of our Youth" is a solid song. It is a duet between Magne and Morten. Typical great A-ha song.
