I'm sure the reason PSB always pick him to remix is nothing to do with the fact that he's Neil's ex.

I just hope they chuck that horrendous Superchumbo twerp who does nothing but massacres GREAT tracks though!
I thought you didn't like Numb :shock: and you don't like Superchumbo! :kiss:

I think they shouldn't bother with remixes this time...maybe an acoustic version or something like that. Concentrate on the b-sides lads and once again GREAT CHOICE!!!!! :D

I get along did not get another version if I am correct. Numb is a good choice for the next single!
Damn, I overlooked that one :P - In retrospect, it would have been interesting to see what -for instance- Dusted could have done with that track.

Depends on what you class as alternate version.

There are two horrific radio edits to I Get Along as well as the live version.

Don't forget that the it was the Frankie Knuckles mix of Un- break my heart - penned by Dianne Warren - that got most of the airplay.

Er, no, I was always a staunch defender of Numb when people kept saying it was crap, it was not true to PSB-style and some such nonsense which *always* got my goat. Do a search mister, for the proof is in the er, typing! ;)

Lol, I do have impeccable taste don't I (rhetorical question!) even if I do say so myself :mrgreen:

In the clubs, yes. On the radio, no, unless it's dance radio.

It's true. Capital FM mainly played the remix. Again and again and again and again....

The 'fresh' aspect is confirmation of what the track is. Thanks for your positive contribution.

I'm okay with this. if not TSGAS (which, we all knew, wasn't gonna happen) -- Numb is probably the best single they can put out right now. at least, it might get people to sit up and take notice.
I wooooooooooooooood if I cooooooood...

Careful now, you don't want to fall foul of Stats-Freak like me and lose your status as a "true" fan.
