Two EDM releases from spring 2014 for today. The first one was the most successful. Mexican-American DJ Deorro released "Five Hours" as a single in early April, and it would go on to top the Dance/Mix Show Airplay chart in September.
The second was "Don't Give Up" by Dutch DJ/producer Fedde Le Grand, released in late March. Also that spring, another Dutch DJ, Dannic, mashed it up with "We Own the Night" by Tiƫsto/Wolfgang Gartner/Luciana (posted last year) to produce "We Don't Give Up the Night".

This week in 2017, the Scottish band Texas released their ninth album, Jump on Board, and from that album, here's the vaguely girl group-esque song "Great Romances" (I say that because the beginning of this song reminded me of "My Boyfriend's Back").
