A predictable remix without interesting moves.
Agree!.

I love PSB but I don't like too much the things they are doing now. There is a lack of ideas.

Yep the lack of variety on the remix makes for a dull listen after the first few minutes.

I'm sure the boys are keeping all the good stuff for themselves ... and us of course so not in the slightest bit concerned
you could say conventional ... and I could claim intentional

It's €14.99 to buy the flac by itself on qobuz! But only €3.99 to buy the album!

It seems for seperate tracks, you pay per minute.
The other remix is good, reminds me of PSB's remix of Rammstein's Mein Teil.

Too long, too formulaic, Neil's vocals don't work, very thin sounding. I was hoping for better. Never mind.

I also feel it’s twice as long as it should be. It doesn’t go anywhere. Very occasionally it looks, via a chord change, to take a different path, but then reverts back to the monotonous base direction.

I was excited to hear they were doing a 12 minute track. The epic 15 minute track for the 2012 olympics (and I will kiss) by underworld showed me how amazing a track could be when extended so far. It shivers, pulsates, aches and glitters whilst this track just meanders. Opportunity missed really.

Too long?!? I want longer!

Love the shifts in it. Really like the floating nature of Neil's vocals on it as well.

I'm up for a monstrous 20 minute mix of something next please chaps... go on, indulge yourselves

Never been a Paul Weller fan. Mix is okay-ish but indeed overlong.

I quite like that, but there's an entire section from about 5:30 through to 9:30 that could be dropped to stop it becoming a bit repetitive with the lyrics.
