Congratulations Rolo, that remix sounds great! Makes the song sound more complete IMO.

Still, as ghostoform said, I think the original version is the best one. Sadly, maybe we'll never see it in full quality :(

Edit: It is possible to fuse the "I know!" of the original version with the ones of Cher? So it'd sound more harmonic, as it's really noticeable that neither Jon nor the band are singing those.

For some reason the link doesn't work correctly for me. Just 27 seconds of silence with a picture of Jon, Richie, and Cher. Can you PM it to me please? Love to have it. Many thanks.

There is a link in the description field. The video has nothing to do with the link.

Figured it out. Thanks.

I never listend to the Cher version in depth but if you compare the 'I knows' it sounds like it's the same as the leaked version with a Cher overdub.

I wonder if there is a way tone her vocal down a little.

Hey, not bad for day 2. I still think we could keep going with this... Rolo will also provide a final master mix which should sound even better.

As great a job as you guys did, I'm still gonna search someone out who can clean up the original as well as Nothing. I gotta believe it can be done.

Yea,at the time for some reason I couldn't find the highest quality version from Mutahtn and I didn't remember his channel name so I downloaded it from somewhere else.
This sounds freaking amazing! Can you also add the guitar solo from Cher's?

As much as I'd love to have a perfect version of both songs, I don't think it's possible. Some of the audio information is just lost due to bad transfer, distortion, noise, etc. Especially in Nothing, the cymbals just sound like white (?) noise, you can't bring them back...

When I get home tomorrow I'm going to try using Audacity on Nothing. There is an option to reduce or remove white noise. Gonna see what that does.

As good as someone can be, I don't think those demos can be improved that much. We only have low quality mp3 rips, there're several tools to clean or "correct" recordings (pitch correction, jumps and etc.); but as the source is a lossy file, I don't know how much can be improved.

A different thing is taking two good quality rips (lossless audio files would be better) and mixing parts of them as Rolo is doing.

Edit: As far as I remember, this software was amazing to restore songs, has a lot of options http://acondigital.com/
