@abwdfd what does that mean? "ruin" it's just another interpretation of the song. it irks me when people say that. critique the remix. don't just say "oh they ruined the song." the original is still in tact, go listen to that. why are you listening to this?? fool. if you're such a purist then don't listen to remixes!
I didn't like the beginning so much, but as the remix goes on...it gets much better. I just wish they didn't mess with Ben's vocals, but otherwise, it's new and different and interesting. This remix EP is just Death Cab finding new ways to evolve. I like it.
@vickybanas I went traveling from Florida through Alabama, Mississippi, and Louisiana to Texas over the Summer and I went over a bridge like that somewhere and that looks a lot like what i remember.
@Cathifonly no yeah, i'm all for sampling and remixes, as stuff like enter shikari or bloc party remixes are really good, so is this. it's just a different genre of music, not eveyrone has to like it
ok the doors unlocked and opened was actually pretty decent, especially compared to this. I mean im a big fan of death cab but they changed this song way to much and I think they are just trying to appeal to the crowd of like hiphop and dubstep
As a big Chris Walla fan, I'm finding these mixes missing the very thing that draws me to Death Cab the most-- Chris's fantastic arranging. I dig the concept of the re-mix album, and it's certainly appropriate for this more keyboard-centered album. However, so far the remixes aren't matching the level of artistry in the originals. I DO think the remix album is worth exploring if for nothing other than to see how these songs take on life in the hands of other artists.
I'm guessing due to the high percentage of dislikes and the comments that people are death cab for cutie fans and know nothing of the 2 bears style or music, and are not accustomed to hearing their 'favourite band' have the tempo upped or the pitch changed on a voice. shut the fuck up this is sick
There are elements of this that could work, but it is ruined by the second synth that plays the lead melody, the repetition of "Higher" gets irritating, and Ben's pitched up voice just sounds odd.
To the people saying this remix ruins song, try not listening!
This is one of the lamest songs on Codes and Keys vanilla, it needed the resuscitation paddles #wellDone2Bears
