A creative twist on the original. QuiƩn es el hombre. I especially like that part in the middle. Nice little reverses matching the wowowowos too.

Thanks very much for your kind review, and yes I did reverse the guitar as a response to the meow ^_^

One of the things I love most about ccMixter is interpretation… the way a song can take a form that the original creator never imagined… This is a perfect illustration of that… And I love how your version adds a seriousness to the lyrics… And I love how you used the lullaby ‘lalala’s”… Thank you for remixing me and creating a new feeling for this piece (at least new to me). !

Thank you very much, your words and tune are very adaptable (a sign of a good song). I really wanted this to be a fun tune and I couldn’t resist contrasting the identity of the instruments and the musical styles.

I used the vocals as they were, no repitching and with only a few minor warps.

clever interpretation Quarkstar…I’d never have thought of doing a flamenco with these vocals and yet they sit in their perfectly…AND your version draws imagery that fits well with Kara’s words…it’s like women as matadors fending off Bulls**t questions from men

Thank you very much.

I do try and listen carefully to the vocals and bring out things that are hinted at in the words or the way that they are sung.

Thank you, and thanks to Clarence for the roots of the Flamenco. I realised that the beats fitted the song well, then a lot of cutting and transposing.

the vaguely Spanish approach is a welcome surprise, Q

Thank you very much, I thought a Flamenco was quite macho, and would go along with the theme of examining identity.
