Average Rating: out of 5 stars
Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - 3 stars really, but 4 for originality with this unique project
I feel the songs are listed in the same order as my like for each of them. 30 Seconds' remix of The Only One is closer to this song's soul than the silly pop version Robert Smith ended up cranking out on the record. AFI's Freakshow is, in my opinion, an improvement on that diddy as well, with a lot more funk and feeling than what the Cure did with their album cut. The My Chemical version of Sleep When I'm Dead is okay, just not outstanding. And Fallout Boy'sversion of The Perfect Boy leaves me ... Read More

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars -a remix by any other name
i've been a cure fan since 1979. to say they're my favourite band does them a dis-service.mr smith's music has esentially been the soundtrack of my life. that said...these remixes are passable. but they're cure remixes so i had to buy this disc. if you aren't a died in the wool fan you may want to give it a miss

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The Cure is back! With Keyboards!
Wow!This $6.00 gem makes me want to pop in "Mixed Up" again and the Blank and Jones "The Forest" Mix CD.If you like these 2 The Cure albums, then definitely pick this up.You won't be disappointed.If you don't like the 2 albums mentioned above don't pick it up.It's that simple!


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - I love this remix CD !
I love this remix CD !
I was presently surprised.
I think I like the remixes better that the origionals except the The perfect boy, I prefer the origional mix to the remix.

The 5th track, the 21 minute megamix, by 65 Days of Static is great too.
It is a unique idea to have a megamix of all 4 songs into 1 song.

To the reviewer that says track 5 was a throwaway track, I completly disagree. Anyone that saw 65 degrees of Static open up for The cure ontour ... Read More

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Pretty cool
First off, I am really glad The Cure did something like this considering the delay in getting 4:13 Dream out. I am not a huge fan of remixes but these sound pretty good. These were all pretty upbeat singles so I can see how they lend themselves to these mixes in a good way. The standout for me was on "The Perfect Boy" where it had a bit of Tom Petty's "American Girl"-sounding beat going on. I wasn't going to get this at first but thought it would be a good way to contribute a little more to the Red ... Read More
