I would like to dedicate this to my Aunt Marie.

Thanks for your votes!
The original tune is amazing, and I thought long about whether I should actually make this remix. I was sure we would be getting very mixed feedback, since the original is a great favorite with the sid-fans.
But, I just had to

Thanks LaLa for Our first review! Much Appreciated

Only Rune-Bertil's could make a sad emotional tune seem so damn happy!

k_rostoen shouts:

I think this sounds a bit like it's done in a rush and I'm not quite sure I think Sweet fits this music genre.

T & T shouts:

Sweet! @ k_rostoen: You can't do it like this in a rush.

Mordi shouts:

Great. Obviously a clash of styles, but it's interesting. I don't care much for the snare (rimshot? ) used though.

SarahKreuz shouts:

Sweet as Jazz? This doesn`t work very well.

rotteroy shouts:

I guess someone feels stepped on their toes when Rune Bertils proves that anything can be jazzed, inclusive "sweet"! Cool as always!

kjetiln shouts:

Hahahaha! Love it! :D

LMan shouts:

Impressive, no doubt about it. It would have been a good opportunity to try some slow jazz, though.

Arne shouts:

This is brilliant. You've taken my favorite SID tune and managed to turn it inside-out - and strangely enough, it works!

The intro sets up a fast pace, but the slow(er) sax lead compliments it nicely. This duality remains throughout the remix, giving the moody melody an uptempo swing backing.

I think the instruments could use more polishing, but the ingenuity of this remix is in the arrangement.

Well done, thanks for letting me hear this tune in a completely different context!
