Now You're Gone (Basshunter Song)
"Now You're Gone" is a song performed by Swedish dance musician Basshunter in cooperation with DJ Mental Theo's Bazzheadz. The single uses the same music as "Boten Anna", Basshunter's major European hit in 2006, but its lyrics, performed in English by Sebastian Westwood, are completely different. The song was covered by Crazy Frog as "Everyone", on his third studio album. It has also been parodied by former BBC Radio 1 host, Chris Moyles.

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 "Bot ...
