www.yoox.com/home.asp?tskay=B84CE7A2Click on the 'Free Download' link (right under the dancing woman), a window pops up with all the exclusive songs, including DD's! The list is right under the player, SD is first. Looks like you need to download all the songs to get SD?

My first post here, after lurking a long time.
Sorry that it is to be a "negative" one. Well negative according to some people's definition of that overused played out term.
I've been waiting for this remix with excitement and anticipation and high hopes....
But....
I heard it.
It's shit.
I cannot believe it's only 5 minutes long....I swear it felt like the song was 8 or more minutes, it is a boring, cut up, choppy incoherent mess.
In fact, I am not a fan of Skin Divers anyway, but I never thought it could be made worse. Well, I was wrong.
I think this remix is even lamer than the Timbaland crapfest on RCM. The impossible has been made reality.
This is a mix only a drunk fool in a club at 3 am with beer goggle ears could remotely dig. In no way is this radio material, in the US. I don't know about anywhere else. This doesn't have that "magic" that you know you hear when you hear a hit song.
More rapping? Timbaland wasn't annoying enough? I think this new mermaid skinny dipping nonsense rap shit might be WORSE than TLand. I didn't know that was possible, color me impressed with managing to be lamer than T Bland. What a letdown.
Again sorry if this offends any over sensitive fans. I really really wanted to love this...I just don't. For the record I have been a fan since Duran Duran first was heard in America, around late 81. So I love this band, I'm not some troll or habitual hater of the boys. They're my favorites of all time.
I just wanted to get out my real feelings on this waste of a song remix. It's so bad, I don't even want the free download...streaming it now 4 times from that site and being baffled is quite enough for me.
I'm off to listen to CARNIVAL- and some real quality remixes from a great band known as Duran Duran. NOT Duran Duran FEATURING so and so and so and so and so flavor of the month guests...
Please do not flame me, as I have no plans to start shit and flame anyone here. I commented on a song, a song none of you wrote or remixed so what's to get mad at me about? I did NOT comment on a user/member of this board or insult them in any way. Peace.

Though I do like Skin Divers I don't like this remix. Especially the extra Rap/RnB lyrics. Horrible mix in my opinion. So if they release this it will probably be a massive hit, as the rest of the charts are already filled with this rubbish ;D And to the poster above me (sorry, didn't check your name before I wrote this ). Never apologize for having an opinion!!! If people critisize you for it then that says a lot more about those people than about you! Especially as a loyal fan you have every right to express your meaning about the music the band makes and we just can't all like everything they put out.

I didn't think it was boring, but a cut up and choppy incoherent mess all the way It sound like a completely different song, thankfully.... I'll say this new rap bit ruined any chances of recovering the style or angle of the mix. I don't think the uk dj sounding dude had to name drop Madonna and this was the s%6t part of the mix which never reached a peak. I'd cut the rap guy and try to snip a minute and a half off the song and try to cover it up with a repetition of one of the better samples used in the song. At its present format, it doesn't sound marketable...at all.

I don't think this remix was intended to be marketed, at least not beyond being a blurb on a website. Sounds like Helder just goofing around on his day off. There's no verses, no chorus, just random bits of stuff stuck together. Unrecognizable as a song, it sounds more like a catalog of unrelated samples.
I hope DD isn't counting on anything with this...

I disagree, it's being used on Yoox.com. In some form or another, it seems like it was intended for some commerical use. Even if the remixer wasn't being very serious, the money spent to promote it and create it probably was.
