I am very interested to listen to this too ... I loved his mix for Juliet's "Avalon"!

[mach747]

omg x 2:) ....I wonder who did the Crazymix ???

[कामसूत्र]

So far, I have loved the version that was on the Gap Favorites CD. The James Michael Mix was just okay.

I heard a rumor a while back when the Gap CD was coming out that Dave Aude was going to do a remix. Let's hope it's true.

Jacques Lu Cont could do this song justice.

[ZRocka85]

I love the James Michaels Mix...I've been obsessed with it all day. Can't wait for the Jacques Lu Cont Mix!!!

[Be My Last]

Huh? So a lot of the tracks on The Collection are remixes? ??? Also yay for a Vancouver Session track. Although I'd prefer it to have been "Still", it's much better than the studio version. :)

It looks like that.

As always, the tracklisting is still subject to change. Even though the source said it was "final".

I've gotta get a copy of that Joining You mix. That's probably my favorite Alanis track.

I didn't realize that she was covering Seal when I saw the title for this song - I should have known from that god awful GAP commercial.

I got the promo with Claude de Gache Club Mix, Eddie Baez Club Mix, and James Michael Single Mix.

I really liked the Eddie Baez. We'll see on the other two.

[कामसूत्र]

I am just loving the Claude de Gache, Eddie Baez and James Michael mixes! It took me awhile to start liking the JM mix, but I'm liking it now.

This is another great set of mixes for an Alanis Morissette track!

Considering the schizo mix of iPod and Jack radio playlists, it is not surprising that Alanis Morissette chose Seal's sublime 1991 "Crazy" to spice her best-of, "The Collection," out Nov. 15. But the result—a faux rock disco throb—is a bit disconcerting. Morissette pumps out unabashedly muscular beats and sugars them with semi-crunchy, phasing guitars, as if she were vying for a dancefloor kiss from Madonna. The vocal performance throughout the verse honors Seal's template and works up a shivery groove that recalls the furious bravado of "You Oughta Know," her 1995 debut. But only seconds later, the techno staccato in the chorus turns "Crazy" into a bland slice of synth-soaked AC pop. The promo single's additional Glen Ballard Mix cranks up the guitars and drives this bizarro project home. —Sven Philipp

Oooh sweet! Can't wait to hear the Monk & Interstate Mixes. Looks like the Jacques Lu Cont Mix was turned down huh?

These aren't like club mixes. They are radio/single mixes, mostly by Chris Lord-Alge. He does alot of mixing for many artists. He just kinda spruces up tracks for radio play. And from the amount of work he's done, he certainly knows what the hell he's doing. His brother Tom does the same thing too!

Even though I have most of the material, this collection looks like it will be worth picking up. I don't know how thrilled I am with the Crazy mixes though.

Peace,
Ben

I didn't even know that "Eight Easy Steps" had a "Radio Mix"??? How much different is it from the album version? Or is it barley noticeable?

[SPaCeMaN SPiFF]

i just heard all the mixes today... and i must say, i'm really feelin' the james michael mix. runner up has to be claude le gache mix. eddie's mix, while okay, still feels a little "raw" ... (or maybe it's just me. LOL.)

loved the video too... nice twist.

i still cant find jacques lu count mix

i get the feeling this was annouced... but never pushed through.

[Be My Last]

The Interstate Mix is really weird - they made her voice sound really flat. ???

[कामसूत्र]

A couple of the Hot AC/AC stations in the San Francisco market are playing that James Michael mix. It sounds real good on the radio.

[कामसूत्र]

The CD maxi is scheduled for a December 6 release.

You can buy radio edits of this track at iTunes now...

phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum?id=89327049&s=143441

They aren't labeled as edits...but they are each just over 4:00 so I am guessing. I love the album art.

Claude Le Gache is Stuart Price aka Jacques Du Le Cont aka Les Rythmes Digitales correct? His remix is hot!

I didn't know he also used the name Claude Le Gache. That would explain why I like it so much, though.

[ZRocka85]

Haha I was wondering that!!!! Man he's like the man of a million names!!! Love that mix though!!!
