5.0 out of 5 stars Justin remixed., February 15, 2003

This review is from: Cry Me a River 1 (Audio CD)

This is the 2nd single from the now solo Justin Timberlake and it is quite good. The main reason I bought this and the 2nd part of this single are for the remixes. The cd comes with 2 full length remixes that are really well done. The first track is the original Timbaland production (4:50) that remains the best version here. Then you get the Dirty Vegas Vocal Mix(7:45) that is similar to their own song and their remix of Madonna's "Die Another Day". Then you get the Bill Hamel Vocal Remix(6:48) . This mix is the best mix because it is very trancy yet underground for the hardest of DJs. Excellent...

5.0 out of 5 stars Worth the money, August 21, 2003

This is a great song from Timbaland and JT. The beat is amazing with a tough edge to it. You can "feel" this song. The live performances are amazing, but the single vocals are perfect.

Buy it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Bill Hamel Vocal Remix is the best mix in the house!, March 14, 2003

This review is from: Cry Me a River 1 (Audio CD)

This song, in it's original incarnation is fine. It's a hip-hop meets pop type of mixture that makes for some fun sing-a-long action.

The best version, topping the original and all the remixes I have heard; however, is the Bill Hamel Vocal. Another reviewer puts it as "Trancey", I thought about that term but did not really think that fit, but it is somewhat a good description. The mix starts out with a nice flowing keyboard that is, well trancey in a way. It seems to have more of a R&B type quality to it. Anyway, the mix builds quickly to go get to the vocal and then all turbo-boosters kick in an you go rocketing forth like the Japanese Bullet Train but with a rough and tumble back beat as opposed to a euro beat or a plain dance beat.

The soundscape of this mix suits the vocal and the attitude of this song perfectly, adding an errie and dark feel to the mix. At just over 6 and a half minutes, this mix does not bore me with a drawn out intro or repetitious parts that can be prevailent in club mixes.
