Remixes you like better than the original songs

[lumieregrl]

I searched and went back to 2006 but didn't see this topic. So...

Are there any Ayumi remixes that you like better than the original song? For me, it's:

Hanabi (Electrical Bossa mix)
Heartplace (DJ Remo-con Remix)
About You x BLACK STROBE
Naturally (dolly mix)
Poker Face (Spiritual Guidance mix)
Hana (D-Z Deadly Rose Approach)
Endless Sorrow ~gone with the wind ver.~
Depend on you (Acoustic Orchestra Version)
Real Me (Ram Rider Remix)
walking proud x CALM
M (Sweet Heart Mix) (I like it and the original evenly.)
Ladies Night ~another night~ (I like it and the original evenly.)
Independent (Sugiurumn Mix)
and whatever version of Kanariya is in the pv. (What is it?)

Not saying I hate the original songs, I like them too..but I like these more.

^ I like the PV version of kanariya, too, which is "Jonathan Peters' Vocal Club Mix."

alterna "Orchestra Version" (like both original and remix)
Daybreak "HAL's Mix 2002"
Endless sorrow ~gone with the wind ver.~
ever free "HAL'S MIX 2000"
everlasting dream "Rainbow Dew Drop Mix" (like both original and remix)
fated "Orchestra Version" (like both, but the remix is better)
Fly high "HAL'S MIX 2000"
HANABI ~episode II~ "HAL'S MIX 2003"
HEAVEN "House Mix" (still debating this one)
kanariya "Jonathan Peters' Vocal Club Mix" (like both, but remix is better)
Ladies Night ~another night~
M "Above & Beyond remix"
Naturally "Wippenberg remix" (like both original and remix)
Real me "Megara vs DJ Lee remix"
SEASONS "Acoustic Orchestra Version"
TO BE "Acoustic Orchestra Version"


Yes, I am aware that this isn't a "Your Favorite Remixes" thread and that it's "Remixes > Original Songs." I happen to like a lot of remixes better than their originals.

[lumieregrl]

Maybe I'm crazy, but I can't seem to get into any of HAL's mixes. Or the German remixes of Ayumi's songs.

Thank you for the remix title!

[Faiza]

The PV version of Kanariya and Naturally "Wippenburg Remix"

[amorphose]

Definitely...

HEAVEN × DAISHI DANCE


I hated HEAVEN until I heard this remix. And the Acoustic Piano version is a lot nicer than the original too. But this remix is bomb!

kanariya "Johnathan Peters mix"
Close to you "NEWDEAL mix"

As far as I remember, the one that is clearly better than the original is Ladies Night ~another night~.

Edit: Ohh and also the remixes of Dub Master X and HAL for vogue.

[Solarblade]

i gotta say....

Ladies Night ~Another Night~
Everywhere Nowhere ~Norman Bass Remix~
and YOU (Aggressive Mix)

[DogboyShugo]

The new Beautiful Fighters and Heaven remixes are amazing to me. I prefer them over the originals

[Earth_maiden]

Vogue ~HAL's mix~
Seasons "H-H mix"
YOU "Agressive Mix"
Daybreak ~HAL's mix"

[kirei_ayumi]

And Then (Future Disc Mix)

[Aderianu]

M "Above & Beyond remix" was first song i heard
and maybe [I]Ladies Night ~another night~

i don't like remixes at all =)

[Seiko Yua]

ahh, how could y'all pick Ladies Night ~another night~ over the original?! O_O the creepiness and motif is completely obsolete in the remix which is what makes Ladies Night Ladies Night.

oh wellz ^_^;;

A Song for XX- the ferry corsten remix just adds a cool touch to it.

Hana- something about the original version with the big band is so japanese-y and turns me off. the dub's trance remix is really good.

POWDER SNOW- the song's intensity is captured better with just the piano and orchestra.

Trauma- thunderpuss remix and jamx & de leon's dumonde remix(es) rox my sox!!

Fly high- HAL'S MIX 2000 (who doesn't like this version? lol).

SEASONS- i just like the arrangement of yuta's weather report.

UNITE- PSYCHO TRANCE MIX is hott <3.

Dearest- acoustic version is just better... and just gorgeous!



edit: and how could i have forgotten my favorite remix of all! STEP you DJ TAKI **** More Step Up Remix AH!!

[~Matt~]

Ohh yeah I forgot the remix ver. of Beautiful Fighters from ayu-mi-x...

I don't like the original ver. AT ALL >_<

[(miss)understood]

I like the first song on ayu-mi-x 4 + selection Disc 1.

It's Dearest Jonathan Peters Radio mix i think??

Its way better than the original.
I like the original on everything else
