"Sting, what have you done? Why must everyone keep re-mixing and re-making everything? It's pointless! ARRRRGGHHH! Okay. Enough of that. This used to be a classic. Now, its just some piece of crap that that idiot P. Diddy re-mixed. Seriously, has that guy ever come up with his own song? Please, vote yes on the keep P. Diddy away from music act. Save our music."
P. Dudley Does It Again....Ooooooh Boy

"Absolutely HORRID. There's one very important thing to understand here: Sting is a proper songwriter; P. Dudley is not.
He should never have touched this classic to begin with,as he can't come anywhere near Sting or his mastery of songcraft. Seems he wrecks anything he touches--just look what he did with Led Zeppelin's Kashmir. Hey,Dudley,a word of advice: you should only remix what you (think) you could do better,or at least just as good in another way. But for God's sake KEEP AWAY FROM THE CLASSICS!!! that's where your obvious lack of talent truly shines through. :}"
"And that be even worse than Sting in dueth with Craig David who ruined Shape Of My Heart with his pathetic Rise And Fall.
I find no good excuse as a big fan of Sting for him to allow this damage strike one of his most famous songs ever.
Puffy is awful, no matter if he's a good dresser. His biggest hit ever, I'll Be Missing You -his adaption of Every Breath You Take- first left me with that well-earned impression.
Stop messing up Stings' fantastic songs, even though he allows you, Puffy!!!"
A truly Bad Idea

"I'm glad Sting has gotten Puffy out of His System because Puffy in His Usual Way Wrecks up a Classic Song."Roxanne" is a Classic Jam by the Police but after P-Fluffy wrecks it it sounds like a Bad Lounge Song where you feel the Music just blurs at you without saying anything.stick to the Original Please."
MISTAKE

"What a mistake...and another let down from Puff Daddy...who also did a horrendous re-work of "Kashmir". Sting should be ashamed to have one of his best songs reduced to this shameful remix update. Brings the rest of the "best of.." album down...way down."
