5.0 out of 5 stars Whitney + Thunderpuss = DA BOMB!!, April 7, 2003
By Didrick Namtvedt "music lover" (Bergen, Hordaland Norway) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The Thunderpuss remixes of "It's Not Right But It's Okay" are true classics and put the boys of Thunderpuss (Barry Harris & Chris Cox) on the map of US remixers. These remixes gives the song some extra energy and yes - they got a lot of airplay and seemed to be even more popular than the original itself. Whitney too must have loved them since she re-did the music video using the Thunderpuss Radio Mix. This new version got a lot of airplay on MTV and VH1 so it broadened its fields which was really cool. The Club 69 remixes are really awesome, they give the song a cool club touch, reminds me a lot of club artist from the 90's like Loveland, M People and Rozalla to mention some. Peter Rauhofer can be proud of himself. Haven't heard the Rodney Jerkins mixes, but the smashing bonus one, the KILLER club remix by the king of remixing HEX HECTOR - the spectacular remix of "I Will Always Love You" just took my breath away the first time I heard this new, fresh remix of Whitney's classic. Even my mum loved it! Buy this single now, you'll not regret it! An essential single in your Whitney collection or in any pop/dance music collection for that matter.

5.0 out of 5 stars Why you MUST have this single!, August 29, 2002
By discodoc (Virginia Beach, VA) - See all my reviews
A few brief comments before getting down to business... Rodney Jerkins remixes: Who cares? They're horrible. Club 69 Remix: It's one of their best efforts, but still pales in comparison to the Thunderpuss mix, which stole the show and has become a dance classic. But this is what I came here to tell you, so please read carefully: The bonus track, "I Will Always Love You" (Hex Hector Remix) is unquestionably the most incredible piece of music I have ever heard in my entire life! If you have a spine, it will shiver! The original ballad put me to sleep. It wasn't until I heard this electrifying remix that I truly understood the hype about Whitney Houston's vocals. God, what awesome power! Hex Hector's crowning achievement (though few know it!) is this remix, which brings out the knock-you-down raw energy of this track. It is an undying testiment to the fact that a dance remix can take an otherwise forgetable song and turn it into an unforgettable experience. W.O.W!
