I like the song but the arrangement is a letdown compared to the remix. I don’t enjoy the piano in the background, the cheap little strings and such - that kind of “rolling over the hills” scenery that the song evokes - I thought of progress too which was mentioned already by true happiness. But the song has power and I love the tension from repeating the melody over and over before it finishes.
I am glad to read your comment because I shows that the things we dislike on the track aren't virtually bad but question of taste. Contrary to you, I like the background piano and the strings because they add some melancholy in the mix and I love it. I prefer the original over remixes, The original is more ''contained'' and I like that. Many people compares this song to Progress... to me it feels closer to We Are the Queens (with better lyrics).
