Wow, just wow. Something very different with this one, but after listening to it 6 times in a row, i still want more. Hats off!

Alarming and uncommon!! Oh my goodness, come and stay for at least 1:15-1:30, where the moody sax and instrumentation overlay really starts hitting home and the mix continues to wind and groan through the dark world. The whole mood is almost an ache, like a slightly painful stagger through a dark alley. I was a little thrown off at the drum sequence 2:15+, but realized what the remixer was going for as it continued to slowly make its way. Bonus points for the beautiful and light wind ending. Excellently done!

This was really entertaining and a really interesting take on the source! I would personally have enjoyed it more if I didn't have a bias against hip-hop/rap backing tracks (which this was unfortunately reminiscent to me of), but the track is really well-crafted and surprisingly relaxed/calm for all its strangeness :D

Wow--This is the kind of thing that should be in pixel remasters--Maybe I'll mod mine with this song if I play through it! This is the cover I've always wanted for this song whenever I hear it in retrospect or hear covers of it. It is strange but not jarring--I think it captures the feeling better than the original--hear me out. The original is great but too jarring and a little disturbing. This cover brings in a more subtle feeling of melancholy rediscovery and faint hope rather than punching you in the face with sadness like the original does.
