Isnt the Kardinal offshore version the one thats more Hip Hop than POP/Dance... If thats the one in thinking our COMP added it less than a week after we did... Our Promo CD that we got early on didnt even have this version, i had the original and some Dance Remixes, which were all in the 7 minute range and would have had to be edited down for airplay, and the one that had the best beat muted out the Akon Vocals which is what I think would make the song a hit, so i went with the original Radio Edit... I think the stations playing the Hip Hop version are normally the more Rhythmic ones just trying to play it safe,, but really after a few listens, the song is getting decent feedback,, I wish I could have added it sooner than 2-3 weeks ago. I want to add some more dance music, but after September, David guetta, and the Cascada fad,, other than we are playing Faded,,, but ever so but lightly, there hasnt been much Quality POP friendly dance music that i thnk our market would warm up to.. I cant play the NYC Diva Dance here,, its gotta have a good song structure that people can relate to.

The Kard. version totally ruins the song...like Calabria with Mims...why does there have to be an hip hop influence in everything? Isn't it possible to leave dance and pop songs alone? Well then again the remix of T Pain's I can't believe it gets rid of Lil Wayne and replaces him with J Timberlake. Seriously though the Colby version of Just Dance is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much better...not even close.

I run a Rhythmic and a Top 40 online station.
Both are on the Colby. I heard the Kardinal and I like the Colby better but I disagree on the hip-hop influence comment. That's why there's two versions. If you don't like Mims in Calabria, play the orig. I personally like the Mims remix better. Same with Lil Wayne and Can't Believe It.

Well, all in all,, we may make the first decisions, but we have to play what the majority of our audience wants to hear... Personally I think having Colby and AKON but still having the POP Dance sound,,, the familier but not thuggish Samples of Colby and Akon will help make the song a hit.
