couldn't care less about the cheesy lyrics... i personally dismiss "The Golden Path" because:
a) it's hookless, drab and joyless
b) i hate the way Wayne Coyne "sings"
c) groove-wise it doesn't go anywhere
d) the "please forgive me" part feels horribly anti-climactic (tho Ewan Pearson fixed it good in the far superior remix)
e) it's the Chems' most desperate pandering to the Q magazine demographic yet - and it's not like they can expect anything other than lukewarm three-star Q reviews from now on ad infinitum... so i say, fuck 'em!

I like it a little bit because as I've said before it reminds me a bit of Julian Cope. More wizards and goblins needed, less Please forgive me bobbins though.

i haven't heard many of the other remixes, but is 'slow' possibly kylie's most remixable song ever?

yeah, if there are any other killer "Slow" remixes i'd love to hear about them!

The "Project K Electro Mix" (and the instrumental dub of that one) were the best remixes up to now.

what I'm sayin' is that if you have the Chemical Brothers and you have Steve Drozd and you somehow fail to bring the big huge motherfucking drums, something is k-wrong

Motherfuck 'Godlen Path'. 'Get Yourself High' was good though, no great shakes, but pretty decent... but I haven't bought a Chems record since 1999...

twenty years pass...

I always think this! Or have since getting into Julian Cope in the mid-2010s, a decade after I first heard The Golden Path. Latter is still the only Flips I listen to.

Also the Chems' remix of Slow is as titanic as ever
