Are you saying 2 Unlimited's influence can no longer be felt? You only hear a minimum of three of their songs at any sporting event. ;)

It wasn't great, and it's certainly dead a hundred times over, but it wasn't bad either. I'm still surprised how much play it got on American radio, for a minor anthem trance production from Finland.

We had to listen to it for a year non-stop before it even went mainstream. And then 3 more years after that.

No matter how mediocre it appears to be, Sandstorm did gain incredible popularity in places where electronic music never went mainstream. Perhaps it got lucky in its timing of release and correct marketing? Or maybe americans were just ready for some fresh music?
