I absolutely love Neil's angelic voice singing, "So sorry.." Beautiful.

And you can never have enough Vocoder in a PSB remix..


But I must say i'm a lil disappointed with this remix. It doesn't sound terribly different from the album version (what a quaint phrase).

I guess i was hoping PSB would've stripped the song down and reinvented it..oh well.

They even kept in that annoying intro, the multilingual Madonna-manglings.

But again, Neil's voice, "So sorry.." is beautiful- just wonderful IMHO. But so brief..

I didn´t know Pimpinela was known outside Argentina!!! This is so weird Shocked Razz !! (and yes, they´re still making records... Rolling Eyes )

yes, they're are knwon abroad...

Hmmmm, after just hearing this remix for the first time, I must say I'm very dissappointed. I expected more from the boys. It's not the thumper one can make out of it, is it? It sounds a bit weak and powerless. The sounds used sound like presets. One can make much more out of this track. The arrangement isn't all that different from the original version...

It's a pity it's so standard. I would throw my heart and soul in a remix for 'the Queen of pop' given the chance!

Nah, not buying at bloody expensive FNAC, Jose. I'm 101% sure the prices in HMV or Amazon will be cheaper.
Anyway, we can meet there.

From drownedMadonna:

"Promos for "Sorry" have started doing the rounds.
There is a PSB Maxi-Mix Edit @ 4:34.
And the PSB Maxi-Mix clocking in @ 8:36. "

This is interesting.

the Maxi mix I've heard goes on for 7m 30 secs odd

Swedish tabloid Expressen's music editor Anders Nundstedt (major psb-fan) lists the Sorry maxi-mix as one of his current five favourites in todays issue. And yesterday it was his "mp3 of the day".

So, the PSB radio edit is only released on some ultra rare CD-R?

yeah he really layers his voice nicely. he mixes himself singing it high with him singing it lower. like I always say he has the best vocal production of just about any singer out now.

In this remix, he even mixes his voice with Madonna's voice. It is more noticeable at certain bits, and I love the effect of this too.

I've yet to find a CD that hasn't got a set of production scratches!
