be honest did u like the tune before it exploded in to the commercial gaint it became?

I have to admit that I liked the song at first too. But with any song that goes commercial, you hear it too often, and it gets tired. When I started hearing Sandstorm at Club108 (a cheesy house/dance club near Toronto), and started hearing it on the radio/music videos, it got old fast. Had it not gone commercial and overplayed, it would probably have a lot more respect.

I was at a meeting/happy hour for my company a year and a half ago at a bowling alley. Thats right, a song is officially dead when you hear it mid-game at the bowling alley on a thursday afternoon.

i never liked it more than Better Off Alone. it's a decent song, but you could sense it was cheesey off the bat.... you just knew a lot of people were going to adopt it.

that's the nature of trance.... the more people that like it the cheesier that track is to the hardcore trancers, it's not right, you know somethings wrong when people call ferry corsten's punk cheese simply because it's popular. (even tho it's relatively unknown in the mainstream).

Ok..i loved the song to begin with and i own the maxi cd of it. I admit i liked the song.

Actually I dont think Better off Alone is cheesy, it's one of the 3 non-cheesy songs on the album... Sandstorm on the other hand is quite cheesy... :p

i'm sad to say i liked this song when i first heard it and thought the video was really tight. but that's when i first started getting into dance music so commercial music was all i heard. now i hate it and think whoever's listening to it is lame because so many people are like this tune is hot, when it's so old and horrible now.

the only good mix i know that i would even spin to this day is the superchumbo remix because it doesn't sound like the original mostly.

hahahahh that cracked me up. i loved this song b/c i hadn't ever been into electronic music before when i first heard it... but after reading through TA before registering for a looong time and getting tracks of quality, i think i know theres a big difference, massive difference.
