Though Robert may disagree, you are absolutely forgiven for not downloading the remix, as far as I'm concerned. I was really disappointed with the decision to call in the "new kids" to update the classic "Thriller" tracks on the 25th anniversary reissue. This is what I said in my review at the time:

"Itâ€™s clear that Michael Jackson has brought in these younger and â€“ letâ€™s face it â€“ hipper artists in order to make the statement, 'Hey, world, Iâ€™m still relevant,' but, as ever, he just doesnâ€™t get it. Nowhere is this more evident than on the DVD thatâ€™s included in this package, which provides the albumâ€™s three iconic videos ('Billie Jean,' 'Beat It,' and 'Thriller'), along with the performance of 'Billie Jean' from the â€œMotown 25â€ television special that serves as the 1980â€™s version of the Beatles on 'The Ed Sullivan Show.' He didnâ€™t need to bring in a bunch of young upstarts; all he had to do was take this DVD and the original nine-song CD version of Thriller, hold them aloft, and say, 'This is why you should respect me!' Even 25 years on, the record still speaks for itself as one of the greatest albums of all time; it didnâ€™t need to be updated for a new generation."
