Sorry, I almost never like remixes. Including this one. Unbelievable how someone can turn a song that has a strong and surprising character into something so... predictable and mainstream.
It's a very perky beat for a dreamy song. Not a bad effort but why does everything have to be so...Jive Bunny? Saying that, though, Tales of Us is notoriously difficult to remix. I wasted a lot of time failing to remix Drew.
As an experiment on adding beats to Annabel it suceeds (albeit uninspired ones), but it loses the songs mood and therefore its mojo due to just using `Beats` to pursue a remix , change the beats to ones that don`t sound generic , add some string or pad sections and a rewritten or adapted hook line from the vocals and it might have worked or been another bucket of cat poo .

I failed to remix Some People (one day I'll post a snippet) too. But my version of Drew might be used to gain confessions from the innocent. I think the pros who successfully reinterpret Goldfrapp must be almost as talented as Al and Will.
Well sorry peeps who don't like this remix.. i Love it !. The original version is The Best (i know)... but for the people that would have liked a nice Dance track on this album, this Mix is the one !. It reminds me of the 'Everything But The Girl - Missing' Remix ... that's all there is too it really, just a good beat to a Great track !.
