"Ay me! Sad hours seem long." Anyone who's seen Baz Luhrmann’s film William Shakespeare’s Romeo+Juliet knows what a truly brilliant modernisation upon the play it is. But I contest it is largely the music lining of this film that makes it so incredible. A musical collaboration that spares no emotional expense between producer Nellee Hooper (Massive Attack, Madonna, Björk, Smashing Pumpkins), composer Craig Armstrong (scores for Moulin Rouge!, Ray, The Great Gatsby, Snowden) & composer/producer Marius de Vries (who received a Grammy for LaLaLand), in Volume 2 they seamlessly, chillingly blend the classical w/ the contemporary. The absolutely brilliant marriage of grave apocalyptic choral music (initially introduced in 'O Verona') w/ the jocular mariachi bravado (that befits The Prince of Cats in an almost preternatural way) in 'Gas Station Scene', is an attestation to their collective musical magnificence. Rivals Leguizamo & Perrineau are breath-takingly good (♡). 'Fight Scene' that devolves into 'Mercutio's Death' is so thrilling/chilling, a mix of lo-fi electricity & choral exultation reminiscent of Mozart's Lacrimosa and Verdi's Requiem, it justifies the score's awards. 'Introduction to Romeo', almost his leitmotif, samples Radiohead's 'Talk Show Host' & becomes an exposé for the clarinet (bassoon?) in such a heart-wrenchingly sad piece that it can only befit Romeo's musings about brawling love, heavy lightness, feathers of lead & other such dead-end romantic questions posed by the ever-repressed bosom of the unsatisfied lover. DiCaprio has truly earned his Oscar. The film ends a propo w/ 'Leibestod' ('love death'), Wagner's closing aria for 1869 opera Tristan und Isolde. Like Juliet, Isolde follows her dead lover to the grave. "For never was a story of more woe than this of Juliet and her Romeo." I still remember watching the film for the first time at an outdoor summer cinema in 1997 or 1998 & though then I barely understood a word they spoke --for Luhrmann's ingenious choice to keep the original Shakespearean text is instrumental to the film's success-- it remains one of my all-time favourite films (&plays).

“What I love most about this album, is the sheer joy she conveys at being alive, being in love, being with friends, being let down and lonely at times because that’s life too, but most of all, feeling (if not being) young, free and, regardless of circumstances, violently happy...” .

Yes "Owner of a Lonely Heart (Extended Remix)" I've been wary, here on Worst Song, of including either remixes or extended versions, seeing as they are rarely the most representative examples of any given artist's work. Many times, extended versions are jam-session curios, studio fuckery, fully realized narrative suites, or bonuses for the true fans tired of simply hitting replay. Notable examples include Iron Butterfly's "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida," which has a 2:52 single edit and a 17:05 extended ("real") version (or even longer live versions), and The Gap Band's "You Dropped a Bomb on Me"--the 4:05 version most people know is fluffed out to a stultifying 13:07 extended version, which seems never to end, and may in fact not end (no one has ever finished listening to it). Remixes, similarly, can improve the original song or take it in any number of bizarre directions. The remix is never a known quantity, and comes bearing its own disclaimster. Expectations are lower; clemency is more readily given. All of which amplifies why Yes' "Owner of a Lonely Heart (Extended Remix)" is included here, being as, even after all that qualifying, it is still so bad, so offputting, and such a sullying of a classic song. Let me be clear: "Owner of a Lonely Heart" is a good/great song--even the extended version of it--EVEN THE REMIX OF IT! But the extended remix is a true horror, a jaw-droppingly awful concoction that cackles in the face of any given listener. What's uncanny is that, while the party or parties responsible for this monstrosity do not appear in any credits listing, it seems the remix is the work of the band itself. So, let's dig in. Right from the get-go we're being toyed with, as the very first note is subjected to cartoonish pitch-shifting (pitch-shitting, you might say), which is about as perfect a harbinger for what's to come as the remixer could manage. It almost plays as a nonthematic, sonic parody of the original, something maybe Dr. Demento might produce, or DJ Detweiler, or Vic Berger. But we quickly find there's no upshot here, no satiric endgame or reason for such prankery. It's not fun. It's not funny. It's not sonically interesting. It's not enjoyable. It just sounds wrong, and it is wrong. Very wrong! Not that there's a whole lot of content here to parse. This could have easily been a 90-second interlude reprise thing, but nope, it's twice as long as the original song. After that first disturbance...nothing happens. The remix settles into its long, long, long, long, long-ass groove. Sit back, get comfortable, and relax, because for the next seven minutes, you'll be subjected to an unbroken stream of the song's five notes, over and over and over. About a minute into this closed loop, the interruptions start, with bursts of arrhythmic tinny drum fills, arrhythmic dissonant keyboard stabs, and arrhythmic vocal samples, pitched into atonality. The remix is technically instrumental, but it uses multiple instruments at their worst capacity in order to bridge the gap between disinterest and white-hot aggravation. What's most clear here is that this is a first take, that there is no actual editing or review or thought behind this remix. And so, that being the case, the question remains: Why release it at all, on any platform? Why does it exist? Is there any more disrespectful gift to fans, who, upon shelling out extra money for the deluxe album version, put on their headphones to hear...the band dicking around in the sound booth? Ruining one of their best songs? What's the message here? What's the intent? Above and beyond being merely inconvenient and unkind to the loyal fan, this verges on the cruel, for the fan now has to not only suffer through this, but, as a fan, try to find some angle to it, to puzzle it out, to, ultimately, like it. Meanwhile, the bandmembers of Yes, having recorded, mastered, and released this crap-hell for some reason, will never listen to it again, the fans being the only ones doing so out of a misbegotten sense of completism or loyalty. And this, finally, is why this song deserves to be a Worst: it's mean to the only ones who would ever hear it. Yes might as well have called the song "Me Fans Are Stupid Pigs." To the band I say: No.
