Customer Reviews of Get It Together

On the Australian edition, all the tracks are the same, except for the first, which is the Lost Boys Radio Edit (instead of the Album version), which is the more danceable version featured on the music video.

Apparently, this Lost Boys Radio Edit version is also available on another edition of the CD Single on Amazon.com, Get It Together Pt. 1 CD Single. Personally, I prefer the Lost Boys remix rather than the album version. :)

The 6th cut of this release makes this a MUST have!
In recent years I've curtailed my purchases of maxi-singles due to increasing prices and diminishing returns as many times remixes include the original version, and maybe (if you are lucky) 2 mixes presented as 4, as I can't count the number of times that I've seen and/bought remixes only to see that several mixes are only longer or shorter versions of the same thing. That is not the case in this maxi-single as it has the original version and, count them, 5 additional and fully distinct remixes.
Although I like all the version, among my favorites is Roy's Soldiers of Universal Love Remix (these names are getting a little long), which begins with a great disco beat with harps and bongos in the mix as well as 1970's recording touches as well as a riff that reminds me of The O'Jays "Backstabbers." Seal's voice is out front and as strong as it is in the original cut. It clocks in at 7:28 but does not feel like it goes on too long like so of the lesser remixes out there. I also like the Wide Horizon Remix as it starts out very aggressively, has some interesting echoes, quiet moments, and a subtle 1980s Janet Jackson "Rhythm Nation" vibe which comes and goes several times during the mix. Although it's not as amazing as the aforementioned mix, it is addictive. The other 3 mixes, which should not be lumped together as they are different, do have in common that they sound less retro than the original and have very strong elements of house.

It's hard to recommend these to people who don't make their own mixes as it can be annoying to hear different versions of the same song in one sitting. But since I do love to make my own personalized CDs, this will certainly be in my next mix along with Annie's Lennox's "A Thousand Beautiful Things" remix off the "Wonderful" Maxi-Single. Maybe this is a renaissance of sorts for maxi-singles, but being the skeptic that I am, I see what happens. Also, piggy-backing on another reviewers comments, it would be amazing if Amazon.com would include samples of this type of product as they may not only help us make better decisions, but sales could rise too. Just some food for thought. Thanks to all Amazon.com reviewers as you guys have been responsible for some of my greatest purchases and my reviews are my attempts to give back to you as much as you give me.

#2 Dance Song from 2003 per Billboard
I really wish that Amazon would put sound samples of singles on their website. This is an incredible single. The Bill Hamel mix is worth the price of admission alone - absolutely scorching. This song was listed as Billboard's Dance Music / Club play #2 song for 2003.

While the song does state: "Pray to God or something... or whatever you do", this is not a preaching song. It is a plea for unity to "keep this world together". A positive message, and a powerful song.

This is predominantly a dance single, with a chillout mix included - if you do not like dance music, this is probably not for you. The Superchumbo mix is tribal. The Bill Hamel mix is progressive house, and reminds me of Nalin & Kane's work, only updated with crisp studio production. If I had to choose one single to have for 2003, this is this one.
