Cher Album: “A Different Kind of Love Song [Maxi Single]”

Finally--some credible remixes of one of Cher's most amazing songs (and the best song of "Living Proof". This single contains 7 totally different and amazing remixes of "A Different Kind of Love Song" and two mixes of "The Music's No Good Without You"--one of which is the AMAZING Almighty 12' mix--pure heaven. The tracks on this single far outshine the mixes made for "Song For The Lonely", just check out Lenny's B's mix and see why (track 6), also included is an interesting mix by Rodney Jerkins. Any Cher fan (or any Queen!) should have this CD close by.

This cd has 9 mixes of two songs:7 for "A Different Kind Of Love Song" and 2 for "The Music's No Good Without You". The Mixes for "A Different Kind Of Love Song" range from aggressive house to tea party nrg to slight disco. The first mix is the Rosabel Attitude Vocal mix(8:56) and is very aggressive house in every good way -meaning the beats are tough but the vocals are front and center.The second mix is The Murk Main mix(9:06) is a little more laid back than the first mix. It is very well done. Then you get the Ralphi Rosario Alternative Vox Mix (9:17)and this is more big room type of mix in that is sounds bigger and more out in sound than normal. Mix 4 is the Rodney Jerkins Main Mix (Faster) (4:19) and shows the R&B /Jeep King producer doing an excellent job of coming around to Cher's dance side by doing a mix that is more club house in style than his usual work that he does for the likes of J-Lo or Mary J. Blige. Very well done. Mix 5 is the Johnny Rocks Mix Show Edit(5:58) and is sort of the Thunderpuss type mix:over the top and then some . This mix is under 6 minutes and works very well for mix shows to play. Mix 6 is the Lenny Bertaldo Different Kind Of Club Mix(7:15) and is the disco mix of the cd. Excellent. Mix 7 is the Craig J Classic Love Mix(7:04) and to me is the Almighty Mix of the cd. Very similar to their work Craig J takes the song to the NRG sound that truly is the persona of Cher in remix form. Best Mix!!!The 2 mixes for "The Music's No Good Without You" come in the Almighty 12" Mix (8:04) which was on the UK cd single and is just perfect. The Second mix is the Walter Taleb Mix(7:40) and sounds similar to "Around The World" by Daft Punk . The vocals are mixed a bit low to the beat but still a good mix. "A Different Kind Of Love Song " recently topped the Billboard club charts while "The Music's No Good Without You " hit only #19. This is an excellent show of support for Cher as an artist that Warner Brothers decided to release this single to the public instead of most labels 12" vinyl only stance. Good job!

I don't like Cher, i never did but when i heard the Rosabel mix i had to buy this CDS. Amazing club sound by Rosabel (Ralphi Rosario & Abel Aguilera). One of the best mixes from them. Ralphi's alternative mix is also great - great progressive and dark mix by Ralphi. Other tracks are nothing special - though i kinda liked the Murk mix. You just have to buy this CDS! Buy this for Rosabel!

"A Different Kind of Love Song" was my favorite track from "Living Proof," so I was pleased to find a CD of mixes available. (By the way, the great radio edit version is not included on this CD, so you will also want "Living Proof" for that version. The other tracks on that CD are also recommended.)

While I enjoyed all of the mixes, my favorites are tracks 4 through 7, where there is a chord change when the chorus begins. This mimics the radio edit, and I think it makes for more pleasurable listening. Of those tracks, the "Rodney Jerkins Main Mix" is my favorite.

I'm less fond of "The Music's No Good Without You," but the two mixes included here are also enjoyable.

Cher is amazing! These mixes are great, can't stop dancing. Cher is definitely the queen, this iTem is a must if you are a party rocker
