So as a general rule I don't think it's a good idea to take a ballad and remix it. The results are usually messy and end up ruining a great song.
Take a fantastic song like Jordin Sparks and Chris Brown - No Air and the stakes are a lot higher. It's one of my favorite tracks of the year and I wasn't too impressed when I heard there was a remix.
But then I heard this! Jason Nevins hit all the right spots with this mix... he hasn't changed the song too dramatically... just added a soft beat and makes it a bit more dramatic.
I think you'll like this even if you don't usually like remixes... check it out and lemme know what you think.

oh this is actually very good ;) Sometimes remixes do make ballads even better - case in point: Toni Braxton's Unbreak My Heart and I Don't Want To. Much more palatable remixed :)
I wanna hear about BSB and Janet!
All the remixes of this are really good! Another great remix is the Benny Benassi mix: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O_v4ohh8IOg
Jordin Sparks has released the best string of hits from an American Idol artist since Kelly Clarkson's Breakaway.
You have a great blog, but it's a shame I didn't discover it in 2006/2007 because most of the hard-to-get goodies are deleted :(
