All I Ever Wanted

Basshunter

Hard2beat

WE SAY

Number one for five weeks in a row and the biggest-selling single of the year-to-date with more than 400,000 sales, Basshunter's Now You're Gone gave Hard2Beat a record-breaking debut release back in January. This makes the forthcoming release of a reworked English version of his European Top 10 hit DotA all the more interesting. Matching the success of Now You're Gone will be a challenge, but musically this follows a formula that had already earned its stripes. This may earn the early radio support that Now You're Gone didn't, so a summer smash seems likely. JF
