Weak and Powerless/Blue Reviews: Quiet Noise  2006-01-17 - The great choice to put "Blue" and "Weak and Powerless" on one single. I guess if you listen this wou will run to record store to buy the whole album. You can compare both songs with the best Tool stuffs or even Smashing Pumpkins (Adore album).
Maynard's voice is breathtaking..  2004-03-04 - When I got this single I was'nt expecting much. I knew I liked "Weak and Powerless", but it's been so long since I heard it that I forgot how beautiful it is. And I usually dont like remixes, but this one is great. It doesnt have that awful addition of tacky dance music or the distortion of vocals, which is one of the reasons it turned out so well. I would recommend this to anyone.
If you are a huge fan, but if you aren't . . .  2004-01-08 - Track#1) Weak And Powerless (Originally appears on Thirteenth Step)
If you haven't heard anything by this band yet this is a good first single to hear . . it gives you a good idea what the band sounds like and what to expect from the full length CD (Thirteenth Step) . . this particular song however is not the best song on the full length CD . . (3/5)
Track#2) Blue [Remix] (The original appears on Thirteenth Step)
This is a remix done by James Iha (formally of The Smashing Pumpkins, now a member of A Perfect Circle) and Geoff Sanoff (a bassist who has worked on various albums as an engineer, producer, etc) . . as remixes go this one isn't bad at all . . compared to the original version of the song it's just as good . . no better . . no worse . . the original in my opinion is much darker and layered . . but this version breathes new life into the song if you have heard the original too many times . . (3/5)
Conclusion: If you are a fan of A Perfect Circle then I suggest you buy this . . if you aren't, then use your best judgment . . it is a cheap CD, but only worth it if you like hearing different versions of songs . . in this case just one different version
GREAT FIRST SINGLE...  2003-12-15 - I don't think APC could've picked a better first single than, "Weak and Powerless." "Blue," makes sense as a B-side release. It is not as heavy as the single, and I believe it leaves APC fans thirsting for more. I hope they plan to release, "The Outsider," as their next single, I think it is more heavier in sound than in, "Weak and Powerless." In either case though, Maynard's voice is simply beautiful...APC rocks!!!
A little light.  2003-12-07 - Being a fan of A PERFECT CIRCLE, when I saw this item I had to buy it out of principal. Unlike the band's other CD singles (from MER DE NOMS) that lack new and interesting material, this one has a pretty good electronic remix of the song BLUE that rivals the original song. It's a little light though, and leaves the avid listener with a still thirsty ear. A must have for collectors of APC booty.
