| I generally love Cyndi, but these mixes are mostly boring |

I'll be upfront and admit that I'm not a big fan of a lot of current dance music. Though I absolutely loved the dance music that was big in the '70s and early '80s, by the late '80s and certainly in the '90s I started noticing a generic quality to lots of remixes. The extended versions (or simply remixes) of popular songs no longer sounded unique but instead sounded like so many other songs. It's with that frame of reference that I review this cd. While I like a lot of the songs here, I generally find most of the mixes overly long and repetitive. There's a certain sameness to a lot of the rhythm tracks, almost to the point where until the singing starts it's difficult to even tell one song from the next.
I love, love, love Cyndi's new dance album, Bring Ya To The Brink, and that's what prompted me to finally pick up this cd. I have to admit that I am seriously disappointed with most of the mixes on this disc, however, and doubt I'll even play it a second time.

Dance extended mixes of Cyndi Lauper's Rarities. NOTE: What's going on, World is Stone and a couple of others are NOT remixed, regular version, just hard to find.

I'm not one for 'remixes' but I have to say that this collection is great.
Cyndi Lauper's music is amazing, its pop with abit of Cyndi eccentricity but when she's being remixed u either love it or hate it and i must say these remixes are great. I was grooving to them and they still manage to capture that Cyndi Lauper spirit. The rarerities are awesome too, if ur not a fan u wont have them or u'll be collecting these songs on various cd's and singles (and maybe they'll still be on records lol) but they added them here and they're great.

"Hey Now! (Remixes & Rarities)" is a little gem of a remix album with some great tracks.
1. Hey Now (Girls Just Want to Have Fun) (Junior Vasquez Lounge Remix): Interesting version. Slower and more reggae than lounge, Ms. Lauper's rerecorded vocals are quite good. 10/10
2. You Don't Know (TM's Know-It-All Mix): I likes it! The tribal drums and synths are gorgeous! 10/10
3. Come On Home (Extended Club Mix): COOLNESS! Disco meets club for an enjoyable experience. 10/10
4. That's What I Think (Club Mix): Very 90's. A bit dated, but still very nice. 10/10
5. The Ballad of Cleo and Joe (Soul Solution Vocal Dub): The remix that officially turned me on to Cyndi Lauper. AWESOME! I do have a question, though: why is it called a "dub" when it includes almost all the vocals? 10/10
6. Walk On By (SAF's Walk to the Dance Floor Mix): A tad weird, but enjoyable. 9/10
7. What's Going On (Long Version): The extended mix. Will take you back to the late 80's/early 90's. 10/10
8. Mother (Extended Version): Has the same NF (Nostalgia Factor) as track 9. World is Stone: Haven't heard it yet. -/10
10. You Have to Learn to Live Alone: haven't heard it yet. -/10
All in all, a fantastic release. Cyndi looks beautiful on the front cover!
PS: To the lame-o who said all remixes are crap: you don't like remixes. Good for you! Just realize there are some people who do.
