I dont mean by charts, I just mean like which one do u felt was the biggest. By hype, word of mouth and stuff.
Lasgo - "Something" Lasgo- "Alone" Alice Deejay- "Better Off Alone" Sonique- "It Feels So Good" DJ Sammy- "Heaven" Fragma- "Tocas Miracle" iio- "Rapture DHT- "Listen To Your Heart" Cascada- "Everytime We Touch"
Any other songs that u heard and though were HUGE but u found out that they werent as popular as u though.

DJ Sammy- "Heaven" DHT- "Listen To Your Heart" Cascada- "Everytime We Touch"
I would say it's down to these three. "Heaven."

Well, I heard Boys of Summer a lot in 2003. But I think people were just hooked on that song then since ther was an Ataris cover too.
I also heard the Vengaboys's "We Like To Party" and those songs by Alice Deejay and Sonique a lot too.

"Heaven" and "Listen To Your Heart" seemed to be the biggest to me.

There were far bigger ones in the 90's like "Rhythm Is A Dancer" by Snap!, "Set U Free" by Planet Soul and more.

"Rhythm of the Night" by Corona comes to mind, too.

Word of mouth would have to be...between Feels Good and Better Off Alone....both of these had great word or mouth.
I love Rhythm of the Night by Corona.

"Feels So Good" or "Better Off Alone"....or "Heaven" I guess, but SF didn't have a pop station when that hit the charts, so I don't really know...

I'd guess that either "Everytime We Touch" or "It Feels So Good" were the most successful. "Heaven" and "Listen To Your Heart" got most of their airplay from the Candlelight versions.
Sonique and Alice Deejay were really popular here in Canada several years ago.

shouldn't Days Go By be on this list?.... sorry, i'm not a follower of this type of music It was a moderate-sized hit here in the U.S. I don't know the chart positions at the moment, but I'm sure someone would be willing to look it up. It was featured in that one Mitsubishi commercial and then it took off. The video got a decent amount of exposure on VH1 (I don't know if it got any on MTV), especially during the countdown on the weekends.

Because of Z100 and the exposure they got on TV I'd actually say "Something" by Lasgo. Granted, we're talking about which of these songs was biggest in the U.S. and not other countries. DHT and DJ Sammy weren't huge 'crossovers.' Plus the DHT ballad made the song a hit, so I won't count DHT. Alice Deejay was the most non-mainstream, so its a frontrunner...and, come on 'EWT' by Cascada's doube platinum digital downloads in only a few months and being #1 on Z forever also give it neck and neck credability with the big Dance hit of the 2000's with 'Something.' But still, Lasgo has had two Hot 100 hits.
Therefore the winner in my opinion is Lasgo.
Days Go By made #14 on the Billboard Hot 100 as was actually a HUGE smash. I think it was bigger than Sonique, DHT and Sammy. It was not a moderate-sized US hit.
IVD
Of course I grew up listening to Fun 107...the country's chr/pop which plays the most dance music...In my mind Sarina Paris and Tina Arena and the Roc Project had top 10 hits and so did Reina and Milky. Groove Coverage's "Poison" was a smash on that station...and LOL they even played 'Waiting' by Taxi Doll. IIO was huge on that station. Motorcycle and IVD's 'Will I' were played, and still are, all the time.
The only song out of all the one's you listed that I would say wouldn't be in the running would be DHT and Fragma...I don't think that #99 is a big-sized hit if you don't consider a #14 song a big hit. ;) IVD and DIRTY VEGAS should be added.
Also, iiO did do a lot of Hollywood shows and got good exposure in NY and etc... Also, what about BT "Simply..." at #98 on the Hot 100? or "Love Me Right" by Angel City at #95 on the Hot 100? or "Something..." by Deborah Cox at #94?

I'd have to say "Heaven" also. It was a summer anthem that came out at just the right time, and was played ALL over the place.
