This thread = awesome. I looked at the title and instantly started bouncing up and down in my seat remembering the song, and then at least half the songs subsequently mentioned made e just fucking BEAM.

HEY-Y-Y-Y-YEAH-EH-YEAH

I am still praying for someone like Soulja Boy or Flo Rida to sample "Sandstorm" and give it a new lease of life in the charts

I always think "Toca's Miracle" (and the follow-up which is nearly identical, "Everytime You Need Me") have this really weird structure which comes from their club roots - they follow verse-chorus-verse but the actual music in the background doesn't really follow the same pattern and just builds up more and more. Compared to the EDM pop of this decade which is much more obvious (verse is the build up, chorus is the drop, etc).

^^^ This is something that I find really appealing now, it's not trance-pop but one of my favourite tracks of the year Taylor Alxndr's "Night Work" has the same feel for the same reason.

Well tbf Toca's Miracle is literally a mashup of a verse-chorus-verse pop song with an unrelated trance instrumental
