This is okay but I'm really just waiting for Kygo x Cilla Black

It's hardly a masterpiece, but I suppose it's no different to all of those remixes of old soul and disco classics that were coming out regularly in the late 80s.

I can see the point of Kygo re-doing Whitney's Higher Love, as that was an a little known song by her, but Tina's What's Love Got To Do With It and now Donna's Hot Stuff ... why?
There are plenty of obscure Tina and Donna recordings that deserve a wider audience, so I would have preferred it if Kygo went with one of them, but I guess big hits are a safer option.
This is not a patch on the original, of course, but it will be great to see Donna back in the singles chart for the first time since 2012.

I get all the comments about these remixes, but I could actually sit through a whole album of them if he were to do one!

Oh I totally would too - just wish he’d go for something a bit more obscure as lewis17 pointed out. But I guess some of the bigger artists catalogue owners don’t want them touching certain songs (looking at the example of say Aaliyah) and I’m pretty sure he was approached to do the Whitney one after her back catalogue licence changed hands. Having said that, it didn’t stop the million I Feel Love remixes that have been released over the years. A Dinner With Gershwin Kygo x DS remix would have been much more exciting for me, for example. |

Just not needed, tired, out of ideas and formulaic, does he call himself a dj or producer, because this is is the sort of thing you start out with, not do in the 7th year in your career, then again if people are gullible to keep buying it, take the easy road I guess?
But it sure aint any Firestone, It aint me or Stay.

As the cast of Grange Hill once sung ... Just Say No.
This achieves the near impossible of being more offensive to my ears as that equally new Amanda Holden & Sheridan Smith cover mutilating the best Agnetha & Anni-Frida vocal duet that never was.

I tried my best to give it the benefit of the doubt and relistened to again this afternooon - but there is so little added, and all I could think of is “oh god, what’s next”.

He seems to like the big legendary divas, so maybe it will be Diana Ross or Dusty Springfield next!

Well the pattern is. Dead. Not Dead. Dead. So I assume “Woman In Love” or “I Feel For You” must be up next.
Although I could really get onboard with a “Woman In Love” remix - Liz McClarnon didn’t hit the spots I wanted.

Arsenal's 1998 FA Cup Final version was more interesting than this.

I know it’s pointless but I’m finding it addictive. Sitting compared to a lot of the rest of the top 40 it’s quite refreshing, even if it is such an ‘easy’ effort.
