Ain't it fun to play with some "professional tracks"?
I have to agree with the others here. This is really well done.
Considering that all the melodic content is either you or BB/RB, and using only their drums/percussion and singer..... nicely done.
From the downloaded stems I only used the drums, percussion and vocals.

I have worked a few of these kinds of remix "contests" and it's not about who has the best mix. To a larger degree, it's who has the most friends who will go in and vote for your mix. Still, they are fun and educational. I tend to learn more from this kind of project because you have to make BB/RB work with an existing track....
Very well done.... I like your version much, much better than the original.
