- Finally a Remix Album Worth Owning.This is the type of Remix album that I've been waiting for. After getting Jennifer Lopez's and Destinys Child I was very disappointed. While there songs where just variations on the original, Jessica Simpsons remixes or Dance Club remixes. Jessica gets the full dance remix treatment from some of the club scens top remixers such as Soul Solution, Lenny B, and Hex Hector. The best dance remixes are Lenny B's remix of I Think I'm in Love With You, Hex Hectors remix of Irresistable, and Chris the Greeks remix of A Little Bit. Jessicas voice is already powerful, but the remixers go all out making her voice soar above the techno beats. The only problem is that there are only 7 tracks. Where is Where You Are? Her duet with Nich Lachey. Other than that, a must have for all Jessica Simpson fans and club music fans.

- Jessica Simpson - Remixed.I don't consider myself a fan, or even a casual admirer, of Jessica Simpson. While she's clearly a decent singer with some potential, her music, often written by outsiders, has a wonder-bread blandness that has kept me from buying any of her studio albums. Her remixes, on the other hand, are a different story, as evidenced on this 7 track maxi single. "This is the Remix" is a collection of mostly hard-to-find tracks that are either unavailable commercially or appear only on vinyl. Some complain that it has only 7 tracks, but so what? Quantity isn't always quality. What DOES appear is, for the most part, pretty good. But I do not care for the Jermaine Dupri hip hop remix of "Irresistible" with Lil Bow Wow. It strikes me as both juvenile and predictable. Hex Hector's 8-plus-minute disco remix, however, works way better and is the surely one of the best tracks here. Soul Solution speed up the tempo of the ballad "I Wanna Love You Forever" and turn it into a decent club jam, and Chris "The Greek" & Guido's reworking of "A Little Bit" also stands out. When I first heard the original version of "I Think I'm In Love," I cringed at the sample of John Cougar's "Jack and Diane." It's got to be one of the worst songs I've heard in recent years. But DJ Peter Rauhofer comes to save the say with his club remix that literally transforms it from a dull and irritating single to a bonafide club anthem. There are obviously better remix albums out there, but I did find Jessica Simpson's "This is the Remix" a pleasant surprise. It hasn't converted me into a fan, but mainstream dance music lovers should give this a listen.

- The Amount Of Songs Don't Matter.....This Is EXCELLENT!!Though many were surprised by the number of songs and the length of some of them, but this is indide a terrific dance album! If you are planning a birhtday party or some kind of dance party soon, put this CD into your CD player immediately! You will have an excellent time dancing and be so happy cause all remixes are great! There is not one flaw in this album!

- disney star. no-hit flop?Taking a backseat with disney counterparts--super has been spears who has a flopping show and 1-hit-wonder lohan...Jessica before "In This Skin" only wrote or co-wrote one song ever released on her albums or not. Wow...no wonder she IS a disney star and doing NOTHING now!

- Jessica Remixed?Jessica Simpson has been a favourite of mine for a long time. I love "Sweet Kisses" and "Irresistible" and eagerly look forward to "In This Skin", so when i heard she was releasing a remix album, you can imagine how excited i was. After the success that was Destiny's Child "This Is The Remix" i colud hardly wait. So you an imagine my dissapointment when i discoverd it had 7 tracks. Not only had she left out a remix of her hit single "Where You Are" with Nick Lachey, but she had put two remixes of "I Wanna Love You Forever" that are the same. Not to mention that the "Irresitible(Hex Hector CLub Mix)" is much better on the "Irresistible" single. There are too few tracks,the tracks are too long and very similar. However this does have a good side. The remixes of "Iwanna Love You Forever", "A Little Bit" and "Irresistible" are pretty cool. All an aall it comes to down to "Are you a fan or not?" If you love Jessicxa like me, this "album" is for you. If You're not, strear clear! Stand out tracks: "Irresistible(So So Def Remix)"; "I Wanna Love You Forever(Soul Solution Club Mix)" and "A Little Bit(Chris "The Greek" & Guido Club Mix)" An ok buy, but so far: Jessica's worst!
