## Notes

There has been at least one significant [remix](/source/Remix) of "Rude". A remix by Russian-born German producer/DJ [Zedd](/source/Zedd_(musician)) was premiered in his set at [Lollapalooza](/source/Lollapalooza) 2014. It was released on 2 September 2014, Zedd's 25th birthday. Zedd had said, "I'm gonna give myself a birthday present and release my remix of 'Rude' on my bday, sept 2nd!"[56] He also released official, completed full-length audio on his SoundCloud on 28 August 2014, which garnered nearly 400,000 plays within 24 hours. While the original was still in number-one position on the [*Billboard* Hot 100](/source/Billboard_Hot_100), there was speculation that release of the remix on mainstream music outlets online would assist the original song in maintaining its position on the chart.[57]
