Basshunter: 'All I Ever Wanted'

Released on Monday, Jul 7 2008

Swedish DJ Basshunter scored an absolute smash earlier this year with his debut single 'Now You're Gone'. Five weeks at number one, 400,000 copies sold and the fifth most-viewed video of all time on YouTube are the sort of stats you'd expect from Coldplay or U2, not from some anonymous Eurodance knob-twiddler.

His success with 'Now You're Gone' looks set to be replicated with his second offering, a track which follows the same basic formula as its predecessor. Its euphoric chorus, beats-piled-on-top-of-beats, predictable synthy "swoosh" effects and inane lyrics about wanting "to make you mine" sound about as fresh as a crusty tramp's underpants, but they're bound to go down well in clubland. Uninspiring but effective, Basshunter's got another hit on his hands.

It's horrible, but the wideboys remix works fine. Probably nothing to do with Basshunter though.... I'll give it a 4 for the remix version

I love Basshunter. His music is awesome. Unfortunately, this video looks very low budget. The guy in the video looks sloppy and nerdy. They should choreograph the video better for such a great music.

Mr Basshunter...next time use a different beat please. This one is getting tedious.
