2¢: "Glad (Delorean Remix)"
As pleasant a tune as "Glad" is by itself, it benefits wildly from Spanish remix go-to-guy Delorean's tune-up, shooting "Glad" into the stratosphere on the wings of Tears For Fears' Songs From the Big Chair. Greatly enhancing Mesirow's already dazed vocals with a simple echo effect, Delorean staggers the anticipation with an oddly pacifying drum-circle intro before conjuring up gorgeously hollow synth splashes and starry-eyed lite-disco. Unlike a lot of remix deities that refuse to take cues from the source material, Delorean knows that a little collusion can go a long way. When all is said and done, you kind of hope that a rip in the time space continuum could pipe this into 1987, and a few bleary-eyed Manchester club-goers would have the pleasure of stumbling home to something this dazzling and plush.
