I'm with Pim- I really hate these remixes. If the outcome would have been like the Love Kills Rock Remix, my name would be on the petition. However, as it is a bloody awful-sounding Dance song, with Drum Loops and Computer effects.

It may be better than Flash & Farnham (it may not, I haven't listened), but that's hardly a scorching recommendation, is it?
Trust me, P_G - it's much better than Vanguard's Flash remix

Well if Freddie was still around I'm sure we would be talking about something far superior...but he ain't...and as such these remixes might be as good as it gets nowadays.
It's a bit of fun that's all, and it has Freddie on vocals..and if it was good enough for Elvis to be back at the top of the UK charts with a remix, then it's good enough for Freddie.;-)

Incidentally I hate all of the Queen+ projects and all of the desperate live performances too...let's face it 46664 was an absolute washout! They might as well release this for the charity..it is far better than that dross. I do take your point though, but nowadays we have to settle for something less perhaps...or nothing at all? I think I know what your answer will be.;-)
Would Freddie have settled for second best?

...only thing is, it already happened with Freddie 10 years before ALLC hit #1 in the UK and US

Yes! Good point...and a 2004 remix of it on the B side of New York At Last would be great idea too!

Well no he wouldn't, but he did want his music kept alive I'm sure.

However, both "A Little Less Conversation" and LOMO '93 were far more commercially viable than this rather mediocre mix (don't get me wrong, I like it though). And in fact, even the Vanguard remix is more commercially viable. We may not like it, but there's a reason that it became a club (and chart) hit.

46664 provided us with new songs from Bri and Rog, which personally I prefer over any remix. Apart from that, neither me nor anyone else has to face what is merely your personal opinion.

It's an expression that's all, as well you know...so let's not make an issue of it, it's not really important is it. Are you always this aggressive?
No, I'm rather lethargic actually. Certainly didn't mean to sound aggressive. Sorry if I did.

I apologise too..
Now have you signed the petition? Haha...
How the hell do you people post on here without smileys? Jeez...
*Bump*
Sorry guys, I won't make a habit of bringing this to the top, but I do need to keep the petition going if I can..as futile as that might eventually turn out to be!
Thanks
