4.0 out of 5 stars Justin Timberlake - Remixed by Dirty Vegas & Basement Jaxx., March 13, 2003
Justin Timberlake's "Cry Me a River" is a seething and almost vindictive breakup jam that's been getting some mild controversy over its video which features what may be a lookalike of his ex, Britney Spears. This single has a handful of ready-for-the-club remixes; the best of the bunch is from Dirty Vegas, who give the Timbaland-produced track a neo-disco edge. Another standout is a positively trippy makeover of "Like I Love You" from London's Basement Jaxx. These guys inject an acid-like house groove into this single, originally produced by the Neptunes. At first, I wondered how a song like that could get a house remix, but Basement Jaxx pull it off well. Timberlake is impressively shedding out of his boyband roots by aligning himself with some hip producers and smart DJs. If you like the original version of this single, then you'll be impressed with these remixes.

4.0 out of 5 stars Remixes better than the original, April 6, 2003
Forget the album version and the instrumental. This single doesn't "kick..." until the Dirty Vegas remake and the subsequent selections. Timberlake's vocals seem stronger on the dance tracks and his constant vocal "homage" to Michael Jackson doesn't seem so obvious.

'Good effort from a man destined to have a lengthy stay at the top of the charts.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cry me a club and I'll I love you, March 2, 2003
By Dogville (Sunny Island) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)      
This is really one of the best dance CD-maxi single to have emrged in a while. Included here are two club mixes of Cry Me A River and Like I Love You in addition to the original and instrumental version of Cry. The originals were urban-hip hop and R&B tinged songs that feature Timberlake in a funky mode. But on this single, Dirty Vegas, Junior Vasquez, Basement Jaxx and Ddep Dish - some of dance's best remixes, gave their brilliant interpreatations of the songs.

Up 1st is the Dirty Vegas remix of Cry. After a rather disappointing remix for Madonna's Die Another Day, the threesome spun up some trademark electronic grooves comparable to those on their LP. Junior Vasquez's an old hand at re-creation. Cry becomes a trancey, aimed straight-at-dancefloor anthem.

Basement Jaxx lends their hands to the first single, Like I Loved You and quickly, creates an electronic funk piece. What's best on this disc must be the Zigzag mix of Love by Grammy winner Deep Dish whose remix breathes new life into the original while retaining that distincive Timberlake style with his pitched falsetto intact.

You just have to get this like me wo's nt a big Timberlake fan.
