The original is a downtempo, but upbeat song. It is really reminiscent of something Tori Amos would do, in terms of the vocal style and lyrics. However, this song also is reminiscent of the The Cardigans. In the lyrics, the use of the word "fucking" is done in such a way that it is almost cute. It's very lush and chill.
The remixes are really uptempo and pack quite a punch. They are a good cross between circuit and house. The dub is much darker though, but contains vocals. The beats are much harder and it is more synthy. For the radio stations and clubs that do not allow profanity, there is a clean version of the main version.
Overall, this little release is going to do very big things. This is the sleeper hit of the late Summer/early Fall.
