D-Line. What a guy (or girl). He (or she) has put together not one, not two, but FIVE remixes. Hold onto your hats!


2Headz Remix

We put this one on in our office, and instantly our coworkers were talking. “Again??” they pleaded. But then they got into it.


Disco Lovers Christmas

Apparently disco lovers don’t care for verses. This version spends a lot (a LOT) of time just repeating “Last Christmas” over and over. Sometimes it completes the line, but we don’t get much more than that. Maybe the next version will just focus on “once bitten but twice shy” ??


Lightsyler Remix

Nope. No such luck. We might never know how D-Line came up with the names for these remixes, but if you’re unfamiliar with the term “lightsyler” (Sylar?) it’s apparently synonymous with “trance” or “house” or “rave.” Listening to this track makes us imagine a bunch of no-good-kids sniffing peppermint and dancing with red and green glowsticks.


Mike McPower Remix

This version really centers around these awesome laser beam sounds. As though George Michael and Andrew Ridgeley were facing off in some sort of crazy sci-fi arena: “Once friends. Now, bitter rivals.” While they’re shooting at each other with laser guns, they’re exchanging awesome one-liner barbs. “I’ll save you from tears! ZAP!” “Once bitten…. but twice shy! Pew Pew!”


Sonic Alive Remix

After the other remixes we just heard, we were hoping that this one would be a little more… different. But for the most part, it’s a lot like all the other versions only without the “je ne sais quoi.” The beat is sort of interesting, but not anything special. Way to go out on a whimper, D-Line. At least this version is over eight minutes long!


And now it’s time for a little gem from the Arctic Monkeys. The satellite radio at our office plays their Fluorescent Adolescent song about 5 times a day, so it’s nice to finally hear it butted up against another song that we hear incessantly.
