dimitrius - One Direction
MusicLoverDude: Sorry hun. It just seems rather lazy. They relied too much on a generic dance beat carrying on the original song.
10/100
e437: 80/100
Cupid: It's cute, a little too long and repetitive. But I use.
70/100
holyground: I'll admit, this is one of, if not, my most favourite 1D song.
And I think the remix did the song really really well. It really enhances the energy of the song. Perfect for dancing and singing really hardcore at night in your bedroom.

coolcristobal - Lady Gaga
MusicLoverDude: NOTHNG makes this song likable. Out of all possible GaGa songs you could choose to remix for this round, THIS one?
- you should've gone with Poker Face, Bad Romance or LoveGame tbh.
1/100
e437: 85/100
Cupid: You know damn well all the GUY remixes suck (why couldn't you pick something from her earlier work). Thankfully you picked the best of the bunch.
65/100
holyground: I might still prefer the original by a whole lot, but I think the production here is really good. Especially that breakdown, good stuff.
80/100
Element - Ellie Goulding
MusicLoverDude: 100/100
e437: 70/100
Cupid:I never cared much for the original, this remix feels kind of "basic club remix".
60/100
holyground: I like how they capitalised a bit on the euphoric feeling of the song. I just really dislike the vocals, as if Ellie's were not chopped up and rushed enough in the original, in here they just sound like they're being spat out. But still, cool remix.
80/100
Kyle. - Charli XCX
MusicLoverDude: 60/100
e437: 60/100
Cupid: Not feeling this at all sorry.
45/100
holyground: I don't know either of these songs, but this sounds like it could be one song by itself. Really nice.
85/100
Speezy - Jason Derulo
MusicLoverDude: Jordin's parts make the song nice. But there was another remix of this song you could've used.
60/100
e437: 90/100
Cupid: This is really chilled out but I feel like you missed the 'FIERCE' part.
50/100
holyground: I still prefer the original because I prefer the light and fun vibe of the original, compared to this darker and deeper tone. But I appreciate it and I love the touch Jordin gives.
80/100
eteru - Hayley Williams/Paramore
MusicLoverDude: This is actually a pretty cute remix. My only problem is that this song sounds a little basic in this version when the original sounds so unique. The instrumental in the original really helped make all the vocals stand out. The remix doesn't. Still a nice mix though.
80/100
e437: 85/100
Cupid: Wait! This is good. I like it a lot.
90/100
holyground: Yaaaaaas you know how much I love Paramore and this damn song. This is just such a fun remix, I can't stop bopping to it.
Once I get sick of the original I think I'll go replace it with this tbh 100/100
Mr. Loco - Kylie Minogue
MusicLoverDude: I didn't like the original, so this makes it cool to listen to. Thanks
80/100
e437: 100/100
Cupid: You nailed the FIERCE part. But the original is much better than the remix.
80/100
holyground: I feel like this didn't do enough for me. It just feels like a typical remix that neither goes here nor there. It doesn't enhance the sexiness of the song, neither does it make it a lot dancefloor-ready. I just feel like I expect more. The second half of the remix kinda slays tho.
75/100
TheSeenScene - Kesha
MusicLoverDude: Well done. I actually think Blow is one of my least favorite Ke$ha singles, but this remix makes it 10 times better. All the beats and breakdowns just really TRUELY make it blow
100/100
e437: 95/100
Cupid: My favorite Ke$ha remix, this has so many plays on my iTunes.
100/100
holyground: Yas yas yas YAS YAS YAAAASSSSSS. If Blow didn't slay me enough, this just smothered me into pieces. The drop, that ****ing drop, that breakdown, just SO intense and fierce.
100/100
Cristhian - Florence Welch/Florence + the Machine
MusicLoverDude: The breakdown beat is giving me LIFE
- there were parts though that I thought sounded like they didn't come in at the right time. Some beats just need to be synced in with vocals at the right time to sound like a smash. This is still great though.
90/100
e437: 100/100
Cupid: Calvin has the midas touch, I feel like they kind of spoiled that a bit. The Calvin drop >>>.
I like how the incorporated it later on though. It's good but not standout.
75/100
holyground: Sweet Nothing has been giving me such life and I admit this gives me a bit more life. However I feel that the breakdown isn't as original as the original. But like what you said, the original song was used nicely and appropriately.
85/100
Bey_Rihstan - Rihanna
MusicLoverDude: This remix is somewhat sick, but there were times where it just lacked energy. You could've sent in something MUCH better. The Dark Intensity remix of We Found Love or S&M would have been good or the Hardwell remix of Where Have You Been. This one just lacks.
70/100
e437: 80/100
Cupid: They took too much of the original song away. I'm not big on trap anyway. It's okay.
65/100
holyground: Oh man, that breakdown really threw me off. But after a while, it was actually good. The only problem is that I don't know if Diamonds was the right song for such a remix. But still, good try.
80/100
Regina George - Taylor Swift
MusicLoverDude: I remember this. Back when I still had a reason to watch CSI. The remix is really cute and dark. I always liked it. Nice choice.
100/100
e437: 95/100
Cupid: They took a Taylor song and made it a Lana song. BLERGH.
50/100
holyground: Oooh, brave choice tbh, not going the typical uptempo EDM route for a remix, but instead this melodramatic one. (I don't even know if Lord has anyone of those in fact
) Tbh, I half like and half hate it. I like it for being different and the cool melodramatic tone, but it sorta goes nowhere so that kinda bums me out. But good job anyway.
90/100
rl231 - P!nk
MusicLoverDude: It's cute how the EDM beats perfectly substitute for the pop rock bits. The breakdown also is kickass. I just feel like something is missing though.
80/100
e437: 100/100
Cupid: Pleasantly surprised, I loved it!
90/100
holyground:This is sorta cool, it goes well with the chorus, where it's supposed to hit hard. Problem is that it gets a little basic overall.
75/100
Jay Gatsby - Lea Michele
MusicLoverDude: I feel like this had the potential to be a slaying remix if the person didn't make Lea's vocals sound so weird. "Light it now" just sounds so offbeat. I like the breakdown though. This is decent at least.
60/100
e437: 70/100
Cupid: It's so basic.
60/100
holyground: You must've been really limited, but this is a sorta cool remix I guess, but then again it's nothing special.
75/100
prezli - Justin Timberlake
MusicLoverDude: YES! SLAY BITCH SLAY!
The urban badassness in this
it just makes the song even more revenge-like.
100/100
e437: 70/100
Cupid: Not my style but it's actually kind of great.
75/100
holyground: This is really really really good. Makes the song hit a little harder than it already did.
95/100
MiMiLamb - Mariah Carey
MusicLoverDude: Obviously the best choice possible. Fierceness all around
100/100
e437: 100/100
Cupid: A nice little throwback, it's still kind of average though.
70/100
holyground: Of course for a remix, throw in some rappers and tadah. Ok nah, but Da Brat and Missy slay here and I like the whole new more hip-hoppy vibe of this remix, and it bops.
90/100
fiercE - Adam Levine/Maroon 5
MusicLoverDude: This is actually a pretty good choice. Mary J. slays and gives this song much more life than the original does. Well done
100/100
e437: 80/100
Cupid: I'm not getting fierce from it at all though. It's kind of average again.
65/100
holyground: Did you not use Wake Up Call before?
Anyway, cool remix, I like Mary J. Blige in here. Gives the song this whole new R&B vibe which is cool.
80/100
Makes Birthday 10 times better. Gives it life
It drags on a little bit but it's a solid remix (one of my fav remixes at the moment!!!)
Of course you'd choose this.
And yes, this bops.
Rankings and elimination soon.
