I remember. Wasn't a huge deal in Germany but in my age group everybody was distributing this kind of music via ICQ or Skype.

I guess it was somehow popular in Poland since some polish guy actually made this:

which may be known from (or as) "polish toilet" meme:

It wasn't, just the Boten Anna one which was then spoofed by the Gebroeders Ko.

I kinda liked his Counter Strike one as well.

This was definitely big in the Netherlands too, but also for sure not half as big as Boten Anna was. Other than that, I don't think any other Basshunter song made the radio (if he even made more?).

Yeah I'm from the Netherlands, that's what I meant. Basshunter made several more tracks, which I all downloaded through Kazaa when I was like 12. DoTa was one, the Counter Strike one was another but there were about 10. In the Netherlands, Boten Anna was the only one to ever get played on the radio.

I'm fairly sure this song got played on the radio as well, is what I'm saying.

It was blasting from every little MP3 player I can remember. Hell I still listen to it about twice a week
