2. Gorillaz - "19-2000 (Soulchild Remix)"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tq7Ovshz1UI You should never go back and listen to the original version of a song after you've listened to a popular remix, because it will usually be a big letdown. (It's like watching the movie based on a popular book series.) That's exactly the case with the original version of "19-2000." The Gorillaz' first effort sounds like it's slowly drowning in a big ol' vat of sludge. Everything is slow and lazy. It sounds like the soundtrack to a video game about an unenthusiastic paperboy or an extended ringtone from an old Nokia model. By contrast, Soulchild's remix storms out of the gate with driving piano riff that keeps things on a peppier step. It never sounds too busy, either, which is a rarity for this type of remix. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oVkatTa0D4c
