Seal ‎– Get It Together

There are few misprints on this release. Tracks A & C2 are the same - Bill Hamel vocal mix. And tracks B & D2 are the Superchumbo's Guiding Light Mix. Does the Dubs exists anywhere on official releases?

I happen to enjoy all of the mixes on this single. It's easy to see why Billboard ranked this as the #2 single of 2003 in American Dance Club Play. All five remixes are excellent for all of the crowds for which they're aimed, even the downtempo Wide Horizon mix and the Rauhofer treatment (simplistic, yes, but I think that was the key for this one - Peter didn't want to drown out Seal unmistakable voice). Extra points for the Bill Hamel mix, which totally blew my mind the first time I heard it - no wonder it was nominated for an '04 Grammy for Best Remixed Recording (and my personal pick to win - shame if it didn't win). Enough to edge out Morales' work on "Newborn Friend" or Adamski's rub on "Kiss From A Rose" for best Seal mix? We'll see about that.

This cd contains excellent house music. The best mixes are the mixes by Roy Davis Jr., Superchumbo and Bill Hamel. They all give the track the uplifting house groove that this song deserves. The worst remix happens to be Peter Rauhofer's mix. Like a lot of high profile mixers (e.g. Junior Vasquez, Thunderpuss etc.), Rauhofer can make the best remixes and the crappiest remixes of all time (just listen to his mixes for Yoko Ono's "Walking On Thin Ice" for example, they're absolutely yuck!). I'm guessing that they're all so egotistic that they become lazy and complacent or something.

Anyway, this cd is an excellent item if you like house, because this cd is house at its absolute best!
