The song also became the best selling dance song off 2006 and broke records in Sweden. Their next global hit single was "What Hurts the Most" which topped the charts in 2007 and held Cascada's region as one of the best selling dance superstars. And most recently "Evacuate The Dancefloor" which held Michael Jackson from the number one spot in the UK charts after his death and topped the global charts in 2009.

Cascada have also been nominated for "Best Dance Video" at the MTV Video Music Awards and "Worlds Best Selling Female Pop Artist" again at the World Music Awards in 2006. Cascada was also originally founded as "Cascade", but the name had to be changed due to trademark conflict with the musician Kaskade.
