I don't understand all the love for the remix either, and where are the sales for it coming from if radio is playing the original version? They should just let the remix play on weekends/during club hours and send the original to all the formats.
I hope this takes off and doesn't struggle or stall like "Chandelier" and "Human."

Initially, I wanted to believe that people were just stupid. They heard the song and knew it was by someone named Tove Lo and then went to iTunes and picked the most popular song by Tove Lo. That created a self-fulfilling prophecy that kept the remix high on iTunes. But that doesn't seem likely. The video w/ the remix actually has millions more views than the original. So people evidently do like it better (and I don't know how -- as I and others have said, the verses to me are where the song's voice comes out)

Not here for the Hippie Sabotage remix. Let's put the attention where it belongs, on the original.

Not here for the Hippie Sabotage remix. Let's put the attention where it belongs, on the original. Except for Sweden & Denmark, it's the remix that's getting the airplay in Europe and Australasia.

All I can think about this song right now is how often her name is going to be mispronounced.

Debuts at #66 on the Hot 100 this week. I wonder if they are combining the remix and original since it really should be the remix that debuts.

I desperately want Tove Lo to be successful, what a flawless EP she put out.

Why does everybody hate the remix so much? I think it's quite good (although I never heard the original). It's not like a Summertime Sadness situation where the remix turns it into a generic bubble-gum dance-pop song.

It's not like a Summertime Sadness situation where the remix turns it into a generic bubble-gum dance-pop song. I LOVE her natural voice, so I don't like the sped-up/pitch-elevated vocals as much. And I think the verses are where the personality of the song comes through. They're darkly humorous and make the song more interesting than just, "I do drugs guys." The remix isn't bad - but it just pales in comparison. On the subject of the remix, it looks like the name was changed, at least on iTunes, to mirror that of the original song - "Habits (Stay High)." Previously, it went by "Stay High (Habits)" and had been described as a reversal remix. It is still called that on Google Play. Does the name change have something to do with charting? Or is it just a way to tell the remix buyers to also check out the original? =========== As for tomorrow's impact, I'm confident this song has a chance - it's a great song that deserves to explode. Working in its favor are the influential early adds Working against is the fact that its momentum at alternative completely died (very shockingly I might add). I know they're not necessarily related, but it's obviously easier for radio to latch onto a red-hot hit.

Don't get me wrong here either, I love the remix.

As others have said, the remix isn't awful. It's actually okay. I think the reason why I don't like the remix is because I loved the original version first and I just find that it has more life than the remix. The remix alters it too much for my taste, but I still like it.

This has grown on me. I actually prefer the remix since I'm a fan of that ambient down-tempo sound; I don't mind how they pitched her vocals.
