really love the original song and its message and I find the remix very appealing. :)

I can't take full credit for the remix. It's actually a mashup of Pink's acapella vocals and an instrumentation arrangement made by Israeli DJ and engineer Offer Nissim which he used to remix ABBA "S.O.S." in Summer 2006 (after the Fall 2005 release of Madonna's newest album and its lead single, "Hung Up", which samples the hook from this ABBA song).

What I did was rearrange the initial vocal break which was slowed down to a ballad tempo in tandem with the ballad-like intro to Offer Nissim's ABBA remix. As it was, it didn't make any sense. Now, at least, everything is the same uptempo and it's better for the club floor, in my opinion.

I'm glad you enjoyed it, though.

If you want to hear my own authentic remixes, go to the 2nd journal entry from the top, which I've post-dated to the year 2030 (something like that, LOL), where you'll find a media player and a list of streaming audio.

For this one, I overlaid all the instrumentation tracks and efx right over the original album version! Same with Mister Mister and Just Jill (hers was a bit difficult because her album recordings were rough and not made in a professional studio, so her voice and guitar were sometimes off the count and the counts of 4:4 of various, uneven lengths).
