Just listened to a YouTube video of the original single playing, and it sounds much like The Chain version.
I guess with the remaster remix they wanted to amp up the angry intensity to give it more "Dance"-like drama.
But in my personal opinion, the song loses some of its prettiness as a result (I like the more even balance of her vocal tracks on the original).
And I especially like hearing, "I'll follow you down..." in the forefront of the mix. Not "They'll follow you..." WTF?
These factors actually bother me enough that I skip past the remaster when it comes up on my Pandora.
Thank God I've got the box set.
