Trading insults seems to be common place on here these days. Just giving something back.

To say trance is pop music is idiotic. Pop music is music thats in the charts. Not music thats made to play in clubs and make people dance. Honestly some of the things I hear on this forum to slag off trance is as idiotic as the quote I made to the guy earlier.

just a quick question then. Both Armin, Tiesto, PvD and Above & Beyond have had tunes in the top 40 charts. Pop or trance?

When? Have they right now? The only track to remotly get near the charts in the last couple of years was the Anthem and that wasnt even a trance tune imo.]

So wheres your point?

I hate to break it to you, but your beloved underground trance artists as mentioned in Rebel9's post have probably scored just as many, if not more chart hits than DJ Sammy.

Tiesto - Traffic was on the charts here in Northern Europe. I'm sure it was in other countries as well. The same with some PvD tunes such as We Are Alive and For An Angel. Above & Beyonds version of Madonna's tune was high up in the charts as well and heavily played on MTV etc. Alone Tonight was number 4 on Finnish pop chart. Armin van Buuren's SOund of Goodbye was high up in the charts as well (number 26 in Dutch pop charts).
So I'm asking again. Pop or trance?

Like I said im talking about now ALL dance music in some form was popular and in the charts. Trance was in the early years of this century and thats the tunes you are talking about. When was the last time a proper trance tune made it into the top 40? Well at least not here in Britian.

Basically you and the rest of your chums on here are going on about the pish that trance is cheesy and poppy and yadda yadda yadda. It really is tiresome.

Bearing in mind this list is ONLY from the UK charts and doesn't take into consideration all the other pop charts around the globe, I think you'd have to be a bit of an idiot to not recognise how commercial trance really is.
