Transcription

Background

Dutch DJ Mental Theo's Bazzheadz collaborated with Swedish musician Basshunter on "Now You're Gone". Swedish music producer Robert Uhlmann produced the song with Basshunter.

In 2007, DJ Mental Theo used the "Boten Anna" instrumental to create a bootleg English-language version for his DJ sets in Magaluf, Mallorca. It was this song that eventually became released as a single.[2]

The song's theme is different from "Boten Anna"; "Boten Anna" is about an IRC bot, and "Now You're Gone" is about a young couple breaking up. The music video expands on this theme, although it suggests a reunion of the couple, which is not referenced in the song itself. The tempo of the song has also been increased compared to "Boten Anna".[citation needed]

Digital Spy[3]

Nick Levine from Digital Spy said that song has throbbing trance beats, arms-aloft chorus and pleasing hint of electropop which conjures up images of a dirty Swedish raver.[3] Editor Michaelangelo Matos from the American website Idolator, as part of the Project X series, discussed the songs from the top ten of the chart from the second week of February 2008 of the British charts. Referring to the first from the list "Now You're Gone", he stated that the vocals and the house beat are very aggressive and are not suitable for American listeners.[4] Jocke Sandström for Sundsvalls Tidning said that there are no words or grades to justify "Now You're Gone" and said that this is the song for people who have not yet discovered music.[5] In 2019 during concert Jingle Bell Ball Tom Walker performed a Christmassy rendition of "Now You're Gone".[6] In 2020 song was included at number 39 in The Top 50 Greatest High Street Club Bangers of All Time by Vice.[7]

The event collected more than £2,000 for the charities Time is Precious and Cancer Research UK.[8]
