Basshunter: 'Now You're Gone'
Basshunter, in case you're wondering, is not a sad middle-aged man who takes his angling hobby a little too seriously. Instead, he's a Swedish DJ/"Cyber Geek" whose new single 'Now You're Gone' has sold over a million ring-tones in Europe. That Crazy Frog must be greener than ever with envy.

Said single is a superior Eurodance thumpathon with more spunk to it than almost everything on the recent Cascada album. With its throbbing trance beats, arms-aloft chorus and pleasing hint of glammy electropop lurking beneath the surface, it conjures up images of a dirty Swedish raver - for the sake of argument, let's call him Sven - dry-humping Alison Goldfrapp's leg. Now that's a music video we'd like to see.

This is some of the worst music ever made. I want to puke and then chew my own ears off to end the misery. very horrible.

i really love this song, but to me, all dance songs sound the same. they all have the same beat and they repeat every line in the song way too much. no matter what, i still think it sounds awesome!

I like it a lot, but the original (Boten Anna) is quite a bit better. So go listen to that if you like this...

It is tracks like this that dumb down the general populace. The fact that it even charted, let alone make #1 is a sure sign the apocalypse is upon us.
