Music opinion: Why does every song now have multiple versions?
Songs don’t really have only one version anymore, writes Music News Blitz’s Fatima Azize.
If you hear something once, that’s not necessarily actually the version that sticks.
There could be a sped-up version. Or a slowed one. Or some random remix trending on TikTok that makes you forget what the original even sounded like.
It’s weird because this didn’t used to happen.
There used to just be the song - maybe a remix if it was big enough - but that felt like an extra, not the main thing.
Now it feels like releasing one version is just the starting point.
