Mr Bad Guy - Special edition

What about The Great Pretender and Love Kills ?

Both are excellent! But nothing special because they were mixed excellent originally.

Love Kills features no snare drum arrangement in the middle of the song.

They have a cheek to call it never boring? But that's exactly what it is, fucking same shite over and over again, why dont they do whole new remixes of the songs? Wtf do they do all day st WP? I'm surprised live in montreal or Wembley ot ANATO isn't been re-released again. Never boring MY ARSE

I remember they put Neil played the bass on Love me like theres no tomorrow new mix and later they deleted from youtube...I can imagine because of Stephen Wissnet or Mack.
What are the credits about? I can imagine Neil played all the new basses but they put only the original credits because of the previous incident with Love me like theres no tomorrow...

Wow. If those samples are any indication, man made paradise got stripped back very heavily. I like the modern take on drums n all but it sounds reworked to a 3 piece.
Bass is audible but the piano leaves to be nothing but a background character. I couldn't say for sure without hearing the entire damn album. Thanks for sharing

I have the original release of the CD here but no point comparing that to a Spotify stream. But on saying that even on Spotify they do sound fresher.

I already find the new MMP flat sounding oon the pc speakers (Streamed over a Hifi Surround system). I like 80's drums with reverb. THe new version seems to suck out the life completely out of it[/QUOTE]

What brand of speakers are you using?

Spotify streams are so full of background artifacts, it's not even funny.

That arrangement caught me off guard on the first listen. I kind of like it though.

Damn the album sounds different....not bad just....different.

Just listening to I Was Born To Love You again...
During the instrumental part at 2:12 to 3:00, the synths have slight reverb on them now. Then at 2:40 the bass ever so slightly gets a little heavier and more rhythmic (for want of a better term). It makes it more of a foot tapper than before. Subtle differences, but effective.

The "yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah" at the end of My Love is Dangerous (3:32) is far more audible now.

Well...A crappy 80´s album will be a crappy 80´s album...BUT, now with better sound.
Last time i heard the original album was years ago. Yesterday i was listening to the new version. Next time? Who knows...But it will be in some years for sure.

Just listened to Never Boring at volume in the car, there’s very clear updates, still a 1980’s album and we need to be cognisant of that. Freddie’s voice on these songs is an absolute joy, maybe you had to be there at the time. Love Kills sounds amazing here, John’s rhythm guitar clearly audible. Music is always subjective, this is of it’s time and these days it’s all about products, but this never sounded better.
