5.0 out of 5 stars AWESOME REMIXES AND AN AWESOME SONG..., May 16, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: It's Raining Men [UK CD2] (Audio CD)

Geri Halliwell's cover of "It's Raining Men" is a pretty cool song. It sounds alot like the old hit, except with advanced acoustics. Here's a list of the tracks:

1) ALBUM VERSION: This song is a really awesome cover of the old 1984 hit. This version is really cool because it has advanced acoustics to it and Geri's vocals are awesome as well. She surpassed what the media has expected from her once again.

2) BOLD & BEAUTIFUL GLAMOUR MIX EDIT: This remix is definitely for the clubs and I wouldn't be surprised if it did hit them soon. The beat, unfortunately, is very repetetive and it gets really tiring.

3) ALMIGHTY MIX EDIT: This isn't so much of a club mix, but it's definitely got a dance beat to it. It's got a cool sound to it, but I doubt it will be hitting any clubs soon.

4) D-BOP'S TALL & BLONDE MIX EDIT: This remix is pretty good. It's definitely a club mix that goes good along with the previous club mix on the track. It sounds like it would go good in any club.

This is the number 2 cd of a two cd set, they say. I've listened to number 1, it has no remixes at all, only the album version and the cd-rom video, plus two bonus tracks. I had a choice to make, so I bought the cd 2 with the remixes and I don't regret it. The remixes are not very different from the original, but it's better that way: the essence of the song isn't wasted by some annoying and repetitive beats. Track list: 1) Album Version 4:18 - No comments, since you've certainly heard it.. it's GOOD! 2) B&B Glamour mix edit 4:47 - Very similar to the original, but better! A little bit longer than Album version, and a stronger beat. 3) Almighty mix edit 3:46 - This is a good danceable version of the song. Similar to original, but a more "traditional" dance beat. (Almighty had also remixed Cher's "Believe", remember?) 4) D-Bop's Tall and Blond mix edit 6:55 - This remix is a bit too long in my opinion, but is still interesting, especially the chorus, which contains some piano notes. Danceable, and a good way to end the cd. Some reviewers said that the remixes on this cd are like 8 minutes long, and frankly I don't understand, since the longest track on mine is the last one, 6:55. Their tracklisting is exactly the same, with longer versions. I think if you're in Canada like me you get shorter versions of the remixes. Anyway, I don't like endless remixes. Hallelujah! ;-)

5.0 out of 5 stars Geri Halliwell at her best!, February 20, 2002

Ok, i just bought this single as a import here in America yesterday, and heres what I have to say about each track:

1. Album Version Great! Geri has remade the song from The Weather Girls version and has added some nice new lyrics and music. Although Miss Halliwell stated in a interview: 'The producers of the film Bridget Jones's Diary asked me to do it. So I said why not. They liked it so much they had me put it on as another track on the album and my next single.

2. Bold & Beautiful Glamour Mix-Edit I love this mix, of all the mixes of the CD, I'd have to say that this mix is my favorite.

3. Almighty Mix-Edit This mix is good too, It it done by piano as well as other music, and you can her Geri real well on this track too.

4. D-Bop's Tall & Blonde Mix-Edit, I dont care for this mix as much as I do for the others. It is alright, but not at its best. But if I had to grade it from 1: bad, and 10, excellent i'd gve it a 5, so it all depends on taste.

Geri Power!
