5.0 out of 5 stars Remixes falter a bit, but still good, May 25, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Evolution (Audio CD)

First of all, let me say that Evolution is one of my favorite songs. I love the mood, the lyrics, and the video. It's really a shame (and to me, a mystery) that she didn't put Evolution on her Best CD, seeing as how its one of her most praised songs.

That said, the remixes weren't on-par with some of the ones from other singles (such as Boys & Girls). Perhaps this is due to the fact that Evolution is hard to remix, but most of the remixes were rather simple. That is, there were no dramatic changes in the mood of the song. For example, the To Be (Bright Mix) from the Boys & Girls CD turns the sad song To Be into a light, happy little mix that makes for great background music to just about anything. On the contrary, in the Evolution single, a lot of the remixes (mostly the Oriental Hot Spa and Huge Terrestrial Birth, but to lesser extent in other songs also) lack any dramatic change from the original.

However, that's just for a few of the tracks. The two "outsider" remixes (End of the World and Surreal) are great and the Law is Q mix is everything I had hoped and more. I'm addicted to it already ^_^

So on the whole, if you're out to get a bang for your buck and expect to like every track of a CD, Evolution isn't for you. If, however, you want some great remixes with a famous single, I recommend Evolution.

This is the greatest CD I own. Ayumi Hamasaki is an increadably tallented singer and songwriter, and I wish I had her other CD's too. I listen to this CD everyday. Though most of these songs are remixes, each one is a different tune, emotions and moods raging from hyper popular Japanese teen fashion to crying. She also adds a few other songs, though evolution remains my absolute favorite. I can listen to this CD all the way through and won't even be urged to skip a single song cuz I LOVE em all!
