Featured Nominee:
In And Out Of Love – Armin van Buuren feat. Sharon den Adel – Armada/Ultra Records

This is possibly one of the more interesting (and therefore more difficult) categories to judge. For me, it’s a lose-lose situation because each and every nominee is really a quality track. I had to feature In And Out Of Love though, because even though this Dutch tag-team probably already has all the attention it could want with this song, the mention is well-deserved. There are a lot of trance vocalists out there, but Sharon den Adel just radiates indescribable sensuality through her vocals here, and adds so much to this Armin masterpiece that it really is as much his song as it is hers. Is it too far fetched to suggest that this would make a great Dutch national anthem?
