Alexander O'Neal - Criticize (Critical Mix)

[@MyHanck]

This has got to be the best version of this great piece. After 40 years I’ve not heard any better! The dance floor literally tore up when this comes on.

[@caesarstroman8481]

The first time I heard criticize back in 1987, I fell in love with the song ever since!! What a song!!! Love the different versions like the critical mix and dub versions etc !!!

Best Criticize version. Many used to crank this tune in their cars when cruising back in the day, maybe their girlfriends or wives use to criticise a lot lol

To say there's no great music today, would be a lie. There is, really innovative stuff. But just, something about the industry in the 80's, i can't quite put my finger on it. The thought process behind it, the collaborations, the team ups, (Teddy, Jam Babyface, and a whole bunch who's names escape me i apologize) i suppose CORPORATE labels weren't massive back then. The level of creativity, the writing, the planning, the instruments used along with the studio tech at the time,the rise of club/soul if you will, nothing can hold a candle to this type of set, nothing!!!!!

I literally had to look it up on Wikipedia to find the version.

When I first heard this song on the radio it sounded like this! Once I got the LP _(Hearsay)_ I was kind of disappointed that it was different. Now my quest is to find the remix that sounds like this "Critical Mix" and goes into a breakdown using the interlude from the LP with his nagging girlfriend being sampled repeatedly... _"Her dress is as tacky as your suit..."_ *Don't criticize!* _"Her dress is as tacky as your suit..."_ *Criticize!* _"Her dress is as tacky as your suit..."_ *Don't criticize!* _" And then, I see you invited your old babe..."_ _"Her dress is as tacky as your suit..."_ _"Her dress is as tacky as your suit..."_ _"Her dress is as tacky as your suit..."_ ETC. *If I find THIS version (**kzbin.info/www/bejne/iHOmdoCnr5unfac)** one more freakin' time I'm gonna have a conniption fit!* 🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪
