Friggin' awesome. I love when people go out on a limb and in a completely new direction than the last album, and with Kelly's young age, this is making her look really creative and mature at a very early stage. What surprised me even more than her plunge into dark 80s synth pop, was the placement of the club mix before the album version. Not only is she following a total Depeche Mode style of music, she's even regarding the remixes as highly as they did. And with that, Chris Cox produces the most "deep" mix to date in his resume. The bouncy, tribal Thunderpuss style is completely abandoned here and in its place is a much deeper, much more complex club translation that succeeds in not altering but augmenting what was already present in the album version. And, though not the headlining mix, Favela Funk's ambient breaky contribution should not overlooked. Total honorable mention. I'm impressed, and waiting to see what come next from the new incarnation of Osbourne.

Average review:  4.5/5.0 (26 reviews)

 If I never saw the CD for itself, I would never know that this is both Kelly Osbourne's song and Chris Cox remixing. Not his biggest fan and I'm really more accustomed to harder mixes but credit is due here. Awesome! (J.D., 10/31/2005 see all my reviews >> )

 Chris's mix took a while to grow on me. It's different from his signature Thunderpuss sound. It may not be as "in your face" as some of his previous work but it works nicely and the boys love it! Just enough edge to work on the floor but cool enough for chilin' to while cruising around town. It's doesn't stray too much from the original either.. Not hte Kelly sound you're used to. nice.. (C.W., 7/13/2005 see all my reviews >> )

 I know what your thinking... Kelly Osbourne??? How could it be good? But it is, It's amazing! I will never doubt Kelly Again. (L.J., 5/26/2005 see all my reviews >> )

 Who would've thought that this is Kelly Osbourne, huh? This is quite possibly the best mix Chris Cox has ever done AND it doesn't go for 3 days long. Linda Perry sure knows how to create a catchy pop tune, especially this one (even if it does have a hint of Visage's Fade To Gray). Her music can make even the ugliest child into a born superstar. Great track! (R.L., 5/23/2005 see all my reviews >> )

 Unbelievable! This track is red hot. I couldn't believe it when I heard it was Kelly Osbourne. (M.L., 5/14/2005 see all my reviews >> )

 Given that I like Chris Cox, I figured there were few remixers that could have impressed me with a Kelly Osbourne song. Chris really does show an evolution with this mix...who would have ever thought of him having a dark side! Gotta hand it to Kelly too...she did an impressive vocal. (A.M., 5/8/2005 see all my reviews >> )

 Who would have thunk that everyone would be hailing a song from Kelly O. as the newest club anthem??? Though not a great vocalist, her voice is much less irratating than on her prior material. Chris Cox, finally leaving the dated Thunderpuss sound behind, really knocks it out of the park. We need more of this. (G.K., 4/27/2005 see all my reviews >> )

 Love the original, love the Chris Cox. Great record. The original is not only a throw back to the classic Romantic Era of the 80's ( Ultrvox, Visage, Alphaville etc) but it's almost a structual rip off of Visage's "Fade to Grey" which is probably why I love it so much. This could be anyone singing this trck and I'd love it. HUGE!!!! (M.C., 4/22/2005 see all my reviews >> )

 Can't wait to see Chris Cox & Dj Dreem @ Club Temple in Tampa in a few weeks. Love the track! - Best Regards, TallPony (C.P., 4/20/2005 see all my reviews >> )

 I listen to the Chris Cox mix over and over and over again, and never tired of it. LOVE IT!! This mix so rock!! Love the song, the lyrics. Good CD -- DJ X. (P.H., 4/15/2005 see all my reviews >> )

 This is the hit pick this month. We discussed last night whether Kelly has real talent and it's glossed over by her lineage, or she has no talent and is riding the name. I dunno. I just know she's picked the perfect remix for this (Chris Cox) and it was an instant hit in the club. The beat is current, the feel is slightly retro-lectro, and the hook is damned catchy. If you like it, I heavily recommend picking up her former single "Changes" with the Felix da Housecat remix as well. (DJ Sean Mac, 4/14/2005 see all my reviews >> )

 the chris cox mix is great! (T.C., 4/14/2005 see all my reviews >> )

 This shows huge promise for Kellys album, seems like it will be rather fun. I have been playing ONE WORD for over a week now and it really packs for the floor. A+ (D.W., 4/14/2005 see all my reviews >> )

 This song is GOD! (NOT a typo) But where is Mr. Coxs Dub (P.B., 4/14/2005 see all my reviews >> )

 What a surprise! I wasn't impressed with her last release ("Changes"), but this one works really well. Definitely not a peak hour track, in fact pretty mellow for Chris Cox, but a good catchy tune that should do well in the early evening. DJ Mark Bisson (M.B., 4/14/2005 see all my reviews >> )

 I f*cking hate her, but the Chris Cox mix prooves he's God. (C.G., 4/14/2005 see all my reviews >> )

 Oh now we all on the 80's revamp sound and I dare to say this is excellent. Very electro new wave and in fact I dare to say original sounds very much like Visage - Fade to grey. This can prove how much 80's super groups such as Duran Duran, Depeche Mode, Spandau, Visage, Human League, New Order ... have influence the music of today. The best mix is without any question is from Chris Cox! (R.S., 4/14/2005 see all my reviews >> )

 someone has take poor kelly to "photoshop" and made her lose quite a bit of weight for the CD Cover.... anyways chris cix club and dub are both very good :) (N.J., 4/14/2005 see all my reviews >> )

 I hate myslef for loving this song. Recieved in the record pool a few months ago and didn't realize who it was until a few weeks ago. Very catchy. (b.b., 6/20/2005 see all my reviews >> )

 I KNW I'd heard this song before - and just today, my iTuned kicked up "Fade to Grey" by Visage. I see that someone else recognized it, too, and a lot faster than I. agreed, the lyrics to most of this song are exactly "Fade to Grey." Perhaps they gave credit in the liner notes? That said, Chris Cox offers a great low key retro 80's mix that perfectly suits the song (and it's lineage). Nice to see he's breaking out of his circuit-100 mold...not a drop out, build or explosion to be found. (c.a., 5/6/2005 see all my reviews >> )

 NEVER IN MY LIFETIME DID I THINK I WOULD EVER BUY A KELLY OSBOURNE RECORD--LET ALONE DANCE TO ONE. THIS TOOK ME BY SURPRISE. VERY ENJOYABLE. AS IS THE COVER OF THE HUMAN LEAGUE SONG, "SOUND OF THE CROWD". (g.k., 4/30/2005 see all my reviews >> )

 WOW isn't this a bang! Great stuff. (Mark H., 4/27/2005 see all my reviews >> )

 WOW! Chris Cox is really proving himself the better half of the now defunct "THUNDERPUSS" duo. I wasnt sure what to expect from kelly but this track rocks. We've got the queen of pop and king of pop, why not make room for a "queen of goth"? (I was really trying)The only downside is that there are only 2 mixes, but still this ones worth checking out! (g.s., 4/25/2005 see all my reviews >> )

 Kudos Miss Kelly!!! I KNEW you had that outstanding Osbourne talent blossoming out of you and KUDOS for listening with an open mind to Louis, your brilliantly talented Ibiza-turntablist brother from the UK!!! (you know your dad HAS to secretly appreciate Louis's sets, too. lol) You have my ear! One question: is Jack adopted? LOL (M.L., 4/23/2005 see all my reviews >> )

 Well Kelly isn't any beauty queen - and that is a horrible cover - but the Chris Cox remix is very nice - although I'm a bit disappointed it's not much different than the original version Kelly is offering. Call me a bitch, but I actually liked the Changes (Felix da Housecat) much better. But - this isn't bad - maybe Kelly is the next Diva on the Dancefloor? LOL. (j.m., 4/17/2005 see all my reviews >> )

 The Chris Cox remixes are pretty good, but I am not convinced that Kelly Osbourne is the next big dance diva. (W.A., 4/14/2005 see all my reviews >> )
