christina aguilera - beautiful

ok so there are a lot of banging house remixes of xtina's beautiful as referred to earlier by e crunk but the one you want is the peter rauhofer mix (which is actually not very banging at all, it's kind of subdued and um proggy). he is some german dude who isn't paul van dyk... (oh wow i just read his entry in amg and he's austrian and he has a grammy!) i should probly admit at this point that i don't own any fluffy white bras but this mix almost makes me want to buy a set in different pastel colours! i think i decided to like this remix to make up for the fact that i never liked the original. but it is better! it gives xtina so much more space to be beautiful. there are dark dramatic strings and panicky echoing bass drums for the verses where xtina can't breathe and bright triumphant synths for the chorus (but there's still that sad undertow so you know she's only just got it together). so yeah, i don't know who linda perry is either (amg edit: omg she was in 4 non blondes!) but for this song rauhofer wins.
