The original is perfect. Adding Alessia is totally fine but it doesn't really add anything for me. The coolest part about it is the new single artwork tbqh.

I love Troye's album. Hopefully this turns into a big hit for him.

Ugh...here we go again with overtly heterosexualizing an otherwise great song. It's sad that this practice is apparently being deemed a necessary one.

I didn't think I would like this and I don't know why, but dang, this is so good. I never heard the original version, but I like Alessia's inclusion in the song. I can see this charting high on the charts.

I see why they cobbled this version together but it does absolutely nothing for me. Not only that, it sounds like the soul was sucked out of the song. Plus, Troye's second verse was my favorite. I'll keep the original.

Ugh...here we go again with overtly heterosexualizing an otherwise great song. It's sad that this practice is apparently being deemed a necessary one. I don't know, the proliferation of (openly) gay singers on the charts is recent event. I remember back in the day the bad reaction radio stations had with Adam Lambert's Fever just because the song started with a "there he goes". It was supposed to be tested on radio and radio rejected it even when it was a Gaga's song (and Gaga was huge back then). I still think the best way a gay singer will get spins without a problem is gender neutral songs. I think Sam Smith's success fool us a bit in terms of aceptance of gay singers on radio. The truth is even with obvious progress, i think the only (not Sam Smith) song that reached top 10 on pop from an openly gay singer was Say something (and Chad King was not the one singing) Troye has some more hurdles, radio generally took some time to embrace singers who became famous in non traditional ways (talent shows, internet). Most of them sell way more in comparission with their airplay. Troye probably will need his own "Stitches" to make it easier By the way, i love the song, but Happy little pill is still my fave

love the original, don't mind alessia's inclusion, but the new version's production isn't as great to me. the chorus manages to simultaneously sound like a demo and overly polished at the same time? idk

I really don't like this. It's a shame because I like these artists, but they probably should've done a brand new song instead of a remix. The original version of Wild was already perfect the way it was.

They really bungled the production here. It's not bad in theory, but Troye and Alessia's voices aren't blended together well on the chorus (when I can hear that they should sound pretty good together), and the sped-up tempo takes the oomph out of it IMO. Bummer :( This is one of my most favorite songs of his and the announcement of a remix piqued my interest, until I heard it.

Although I first enjoyed the new instrumental, I now much prefer the original Can't wait for the instrumental for this to be released so I can filter an acapella and mix it with the original instrumental.

I like this. I don't care much for his voice, but this track is nice and chill and Alessia's newly added vocals really elevate this to a new level.
