 Beautiful and Inspiring Jan 02, 2008
This song has become a cult wherever the movie was a hit. These remixes take the original song of the movie to a dance club level, specially the Collaboration Remix that keeps the beauty of the original score lead by an electronic base line. The track is so inspiring and beautiful that will make you cry of happiness while you're dancing hypnotized by the strings chord line and the Trance/House beat. One of the best G anthems ever, better than "I Will Survive" We need more of this, please!!!

 Not all that. Nov 03, 2006
This "remix" is alright, nothing special just the same song played over and over and over. Quality was good, like most things ordered from amazon.

 G & D mix is awesome, the other two mixes beyond terrible! Sep 02, 2006
Reading some of the reviews of this CD-single are quite hillarious! It's pretty clear most who reviewed this do not understand what remixes are about, and what these mixes were supposed to do. These are for clubs, and for people who like to listen to Club music. It was also very funny to read some of the descriptions of the first mix on the CD. Next time you guys buy a CD-single that are remixes, you might remember the key word on the CD...REMIXES!
Now on to the mixes.. Gabriel & Dresden's 'Organized Nature Remix' is unbelieveable! Completely doing the theme justice. It is a truly beautiful mix of the song, and the breaks in and out of the theme are perfect. Gabriel & Dresden are the top Trance remixers in the U.S. When I first found out they were from the United States, I was shocked! They definitely sound much more Euro, and their darker style is just amazing with all the mixes they do.
Now on to the other two... these mixes are completly aweful! The theme sounds all chopped up, and these horrible House versions of the song just do not match up. I have heard that the 'Collaboration Mix' is the most popular of the three, and I do not know how. The guitar is sped up in the mix, and in another is sampled over and over which again just does not make any sense and sounds dreadful. Tony Moran, Manny Lehman and Warren Rigg are much better than that, and their remixes are very disappointing. You guys, especially Moran, can do better than this garbage.
I give this 4 stars because the Gabriel & Dresden version is just amazing, and is definitely worth the price of the CD-single!
Somewhat Beautiful. Jul 12, 2006
I love love love "The Wings" theme from Brokeback. It's beautiful and understated. These remixed interpretations really bring it another (however, different) level. Check it out. My only gripe is I'd like some radio edits. I'm not a huge fan of remixes over about 6 mins.

 I wish I knew how to quit this remix CD?! Jun 15, 2006
BROKEBACK is one of the BEST movies and soundtracks EVER, no contest - but sadly, this remix CD project simply bastardizes a brilliant, haunting original score to make it...er...danceable...no...palatable...nah...to circuit queens high on meth or Tina. In theory, it's a semi-interesting conceit - in reality, it's one long, flat, tribal drone that goes on ad nauseum long after what little interest there was has already peaked. Do yourself a favor and support the film by buying the DVD and the original score/soundtrack, but take a pass on this - this MIGHT have worked with a cooler DOWNTEMPO remix - maybe HERBERT or JOAKIM or PORTISHEAD...anyone...but these hacks!
