Where's the 12th track?I bought this when it was a tape back in 1990. The tape has 12 songs and the CD for some reason is missing a song. "Why can't I be you? (extended mix)" hmm I wonder why its missing?oh me oh myI recently picked up the Cure's "Mixed up" expecting it to be a humorous dance reworking of some of the better cure songs of the 80s; you know, something to put on at a party for a few laughs etc. I paid one dollar and got what I paid for. I did enjoy listening to the album once or twice but the production is so poor and dated that mocking it is too easy and gets old after two listens. *Warning* serious Cure fans: avoid this disk, you may be offended by the way 1990's hottest remixers defile a wonderful band's songs.Very good dance remix album from a band!I thought that this remix album was a good release to put out in that 3-year period while The Cure were working on songs for their 1992 album Wish. To follow the great Disintegration from 1989 was very tough, so this '90 album has some very solid remixes. For a rock band to make a remix album is a rarity. Songs like Hot,Hot, Hot, Fascination Street, and Lullaby have some very addictive, catchy remixes. They keep your attention for 7 to 9 minutes of their individual songs. Most songs keep the similar dance beats per minute to match with the band's sound. I love A Forest's remix, given that it is one of their earlier songs. Makes you feel like you're in a forest when you listen to the song. This was a strong album in its own right and kudos to the many remixers who made these songs. |
