I don't know the original, but that version sounds wicked to me :) All the right sounds in the right place, just keep at it and you won't go wrong :)

Silverplate? I'm guessing its a remix of Express Yourself (cracking tune anyway if its that so should be good). Will download now and leave feedback later

Yeah mate sounding decent :) Missing a few bits of percussion... Crash, Open hat, Clap, Ride. They'll add something to it, esp. with the right reverb on them. Could use a bit of automation in places to bring it to life as well. I'll send you some nice percussion and kicks and stuff if you want them?
Good stuff so far though mate.

Ah it was a remix of "Express Yourself"
I liked it, nice and bouncy behind the melody but not as good as the original in my opinion (sorry!).
The original has more of a feeling of highs and lows, with the breakdowns really emphasied followed by a burst of energy where the beat starts again, where your's seems to be kind of constant all the way through (a bit like most makina tracks). I know you have breakdowns but they don't seem to stand out as much as the original version's. If you defined the lows a bit more (maybe with drum breaks or something) I think it would be better.
I like the secondary melody near the end (don't know if there's a technical name for this lol) which I dont remember from the original.
Overall definately good work and keep at it (bare in mind that Express Yourself is one of the best hard-trance tunes EVER so it was always goin to be hard to better it but I think you've made a good attempt)
