<… Read Full Bio ↴There are 4 bands with the name ATC/A Touch of Class/Above the Clouds.
1) ATC, meaning A Touch of Class (the group's previous name), is a pop band based in Germany, although the four members each come from different countries โ Joe from New Zealand, Sarah from Australia, Tracey from England, and Livio from Italy. All four members were performers in the German production of Andrew Lloyd Webber's "Cats" in Hamburg when they met. Before the release of their second album the band had to drop the use of the abbreviation of their band name due to a legal dispute.
They broke into the mainstream with their electronica crossover hit single "Around the World (La La La La La)" (a cover of Ruki Vverkh's "Pesenka") off their debut album Planet Pop (February 6, 2001) under Sony BMG Music Entertainment. "Around the World" has received massive radio play world-wide, but the rest of the album was generally considered lacking by critics. In 2000 they won an ECHO for Best Dance Act. Since then, they have produced a second album, Touch The Sky (2003).
After flopping with their second album BMG dropped ATC in May 2003. The band spoke about a break for 2-3 years to change their music, but now there is no sign of a comeback as each member has resumed his or her "normal" life again.
2) A Touch of Class, a 5 member Jazz Combo
Based in the Niagara Region and directed by Craig Inglis, A Touch of Class plays music ranging from the post World War I
"Tin Pan Alley", to the romantic ballads and Swing tunes of the 30's and 40's Big Band era, and Classic Rock of the 60's & 70's.
The Band includes: Alto Sax - Channing Julien, Tenor Sax - Lucas Durand, Baritone Sax - Talek Julian, Bass - Liv Shaw, and Percussionist - Adam Slinn
3) ATC (Above the Clouds) Swedish heavy metal group formed in 1978, in Stockholm. They released the only album in their career, Cut in Ice. After this... they split up. Last known line-up of them is:
H. Spider Soder -vocals

Close the door
I won't worry anymore
I've been waiting for you
Everyday and everynight
Cut the light
Let it fade
I don't wanna be afraid
Tonight is right
Stars shine bright
I just really wanna be with you
I celebrate pray for the day
When all my wishes will be coming true
My heart beats like a drum like a drum
dum dum dum - dum dum dum
And my feet step the beat like a drum
dum dum dum - dum dum dum
My heart beats like a drum like a drum

I don't know why people don't appreciate happy, chill, positive upbeat music such as this. Maybe I have more respect because I grew up in the 90s
@urphakeandgey6308
I'm getting bored of modern dance music because it's hell-bent on trying to sound as "hard," "cool," "dark," and "edgy," as possible. I miss the days when rave music sounded and felt like the ecstasy you take.

Being that weird kid in school who enjoyed Eurodance music more than the pop and rap artists, this song has brought back some amazing memories, and has shown how far in the world I've come from those humble days. To all those kids reading this who have a taste in music or anything else different than your peers and may be made fun of for it, just remember that you are building yourself to become an interesting person down the line. What you enjoy now can spark curiosity like it did for me and end up doing something different from all my friends :)
@josue58147
They used to make fun of me but now that i remember about it i feel proud i like this kind of muSic and dances i feel special their life its just too boring
@SuperFlashDriver
Eurodance, much like House and EDM music in the past, was the shit...Loved it as a kid, didn't even like what people were playing in 2005, let alone 2007.
@Bunihime
Iโm so obssesed with 2000โs dance music.
