well ... us 80's folks do seem to have a difficult time appreciating and accepting our treasures from the past being remodelled .... you know what .... my kids have a great appreciation when they hear the original versions and it does end fighting over who gets musical control ... enjoyed either way :-)
I agree with you. In the USA, the album is known as Sidekicks. I have both INTO THE GAP & SIDEKICKS. I wanted to say this before, but since you said it I won't stand alone. This remix version of Doctor Doctor stinks! You Tube took the original version down, I can't seem to find it anywhere.
Yeah, the remix sounds too techno and Tom's voice is really high-pitched in it. And by the way, the original song is in the related videos section, but it's a single picture throughout.
I think we are the only two people who seem to agree that this remix version is lame. Just look at all the thumbs down we are getting from our comments, lol. Oh well, what are you gonna do?
Agreed. You know when you take a song from the 80's & try to make it up to today's standards like this techno version, it just doesn't fit. When you are use to hearing a original version of a song, it simply sticks to your mind. There are some exceptions. This is not one of them.
You are amazing!!! I just happened to stumble upon this remix. And, to say the least, I was literaly blown away!!! If The Thompson Twins themselves were to hear your mix, I'm quite certain they'd love it too. Any more mixes? Please???!!!
You must be definitely "borracho" (as in drunk) because this remix is nothing short of amazing. The original version is amazing. This is the DJ's take on the same song. Listen to it carefully, please. He not only kept the original structure of the song intact, but also enhanced the originality of the tune by adding the dance elements to make it work as a dance record. That is the job of a remixer. And this Micky D guy can put a lot of acclaimed DJs to shame with his skills and talents.
i wish mickey would do more mixes of thompson twins, including this song. I really listened to them ALOT back in the day, and have been missing those days gone by lately
MORRISSEY'S favorite group...doing one of Mozzers fave tunes.......oh all those goose bumps. "Now get your fuckin shine box"....succas.....HILARIOUS !!
Durung the mid 70's The Thompson Twins were ahead of the pack. As a child I grew up listening to Tom Bailey. This my third favorite song of The Thompson Twins. I give this remix *******
Are my ears decieving me?. Did I just hear a 21st century remix of an 80s song that has stayed 99.99% faithful to the original. Most remixes nowadays totally murder the song. I still prefer the original because I hate that modern sounding beat but at least this remix hasn't ripped the heart out of the song.
This is a brilliant remix of a fantastic 80's song!! Where can I get hold of it? The Thompson Twins always looked like they were enjoying themsleves too!
This is really one of the best remixes I have EVER heard. Retains the energy and spirit of the original yet has an updated overall sound. Fantastic job
I love this remix! It's incredible! I remember when I first heard the original and I've loved the Thompsons ever since! Fantastic tune made even better! I wonder if it was ever released... =D
i wish there was a few new versions of the song. i was about 15 years old when it came out the first time. My high school years were influenced by it.
This song makes me think of them singing it on the Dr.Pepper commercial...I still like the song, but it makes me think of Dr. Pepper every time I here it.
totally agree. plus this song originally had lyrics accompanied by a much slower tempo than this remix. you change the pace of the music, you 've got to change the pace of the words. it was like the singer tried to catch up with the music, which was running like a god damn Ferrari!
i wish that i could get more remixes of Doctor Doctor. At the time it came out i think i used up many headphones listening to just this one special song
I just gotta say it again, this is truly awesome.....always looking forward to more music from Tom Bailey no matter what incarnation he takes as a musical group or solo...I like his International Observer, but, really miss that lovely singing voice!!!
LOVE IT!!!!
