Posted May 20, 20178 yr Whilst we're revisiting 00s dance in the chart forum, it's time we ranked the biggest dance hits of the 2000s. The top 15 best-selling dance songs of each year in the UK have been selected, simply rank them from +15 (favourite) to +01 (least favourite) and the top four of each group will be put into a grand final. 2006 2006 was quite the year for dance music. We've seen bits of electro in the previous few years but it really started to become a big genre by this year, with big hits from the likes of Bodyrox, Chicane, David Guetta vs. The Egg, Fedde Le Grand and Oakenfold. For Guetta it was his first top ten hit out of many, the other newcomers weren't so lucky. Meanwhile loop house was still big with hits from Beatfreakz, Hi_Tack and Sunblock, which took inspiration from sounds of the 80s - the former two sampling Michael Jackson and the latter sampling the theme from 'Baywatch'. We also have Bob Sinclar & Cutee B who sampled C&C Music Factory for his biggest hit to date. With a little help from house producer Seamus Haji, Booty Luv launched their career with 'Boogie 2Nite'. The duo were previously in RnB group Big Brovaz. Cascada launched their career with the huge 'Everytime We Touch', which again brought to the mainstream attention the 'clubland' brand of dance. They also followed it up with a cover version from Savage Garden which was also big enough of a hit to land in the top 15 sellers. And to finish with another reworking, The Source re-released 'You Got The Love' yet again with a new remix, just years before Florence + The Machine would cover the song and take it to the top ten two more times (including a live mashup version with Dizzee Rascal).
