The production of this song is profound to say the least. There are so many miniscule details that make this song so amazing. All the miniscule details together make one beautiful song. Tiesto throws down some dirty fucken house baby! And this is when I thought Tiesto just spun some good Trance. Go Tiesto. Two thumbs up to one of the greatest music producers and DJ's I've yet to hear.
