    why metacritic is not fair with everyone ? it`s not fair to make a review of a remix album because it`s not an album . if u want to make a review do with every singer of pop britney spears ,katy perry ,kesha ,etc etc i think the only porpouse of doing this its to allow bad reviews and count it for the general score of the artist so Metacritic have to delete the reviews forwhy metacritic is not fair with everyone ? it`s not fair to make a review of a remix album because it`s not an album . if u want to make a review do with every singer of pop britney spears ,katy perry ,kesha ,etc etc i think the only porpouse of doing this its to allow bad reviews and count it for the general score of the artist so Metacritic have to delete the reviews for remixes and keep the review just for an album OK p.d where is the review for the remix album of u2, depeche mode ,etc? they are not good but it doesn`t mean that their albums are bad… Expand

    This is Lady Gaga's first remix album. "The Remix" has a lot of great remixes. You can listen this album multiple times, again and again. I really like "The Fame" (Glam as You Remix), "Alejandro" (Sound of Arrows Remix), "Dance in the Dark" (Monarchy 'Stylites' Remix), "Eh, Eh (Nothing Else I Can Say)" (Pet Shop Boys Remix), "Just Dance" (Deewaan Remix) (featuring Ashking, Wedis, Lush, andThis is Lady Gaga's first remix album.

    One of the best remixes I've ever heard! Maybe not all the remixes are good, but most of the album is! These musics are totally different than the original and are directed to clubs and parties.

    While The Remix is nowhere good as Born This Way: The Remix, it is, in fact, still pretty good. Obviously, you can't expect a masterpiece coming out of a remix album, so judging it too harshly feels somewhat unfair to me. I'll just say this: It's a great, solid remix album. Definitely better than most remix albums out there and it's definitely worth listening to.

    A wonderful album! A wonderful artist! Every album released, his talent and his legacy growing and most respected. This only tends to grow. Each person chooses his own Queen, Lady Gaga for me is the true queen of pop.

    Paparazzi The Stuart Price Remix is a great way to showcase the greatness of the original Paparazzi song.

    Only after being overwhelmed by the sheer visibility of her warp-speed relaunch did I realize how enjoyable and inescapable her hooks and snatches had turned out to be.

    Talanted, brilliant, incredible, amazing, showstopper, spectacular, never the same, totally unique, completely not ever been done before, unafraid to refferace or not refferace, put it in a blender, **** on it, vomit on it, eat it, give birth to it. this is how you do a remix everyone

    'The Remix' is not filled with any new chart toppers, yet gives alternate angles to view Lady Gaga's music from. Giving die-hard Little Monsters another album to add to their collection, it also successfully attempts to attract new Electro/Dance music fans.

    The album does not work out as a whole, however each track itself, not as an album, pull off something truely incredible. All the proof you need is in the 'Alejandro' and 'Eh Eh' remixes.

    At 17 tracks it borders on overkill, but that's fitting for Gaga, who has made excessiveness her raison d'être, and some of the included remixes are quite good.

    On this Lady Gaga remix album, 10 producers and DJs sink their teeth into her meaty catalog--with predictably uneven results.

    If you love these songs and want to hear them sound different and not as good as the versions you cherish, this record is for you! If not, what you'll hear is a confusing collection of material you didn't much enjoy in the first place sound unpleasant in new, and parallel, ways.
