Guenter,

I agree that the original is sooo good that you faced an uphill climb to improve on it... but DANG, you sure duplicated its excellence, but in a different direction

It's interesting to read the various observations about relative quality between the versions... taste is so subjective, and nobody in these contests seems to be a newbie making obvious errors in technical proficiency.

One thing is for sure: including professional content elevates the whole project. Her singing is so good, as floyd said, that it would be hard to screw it up (but easy to benefit from the quality it brings to whatever you choose to add)

In your case, what you added is also very pro quality in terms of everything, so when you hear the sum of its parts, WOW

You really are the remix master.
