Cascada’s “Everytime We Touch” Turns 19 Years Old

On August 16, 2005, the world was introduced to a track that would become a defining anthem of the dance scene: “Everytime We Touch” by Cascada. The song didn’t just top charts—it became a cultural phenomenon that would forever change electronic dance music.

“Everytime We Touch” wasn’t just another song, it was a game-changer. Cascada, fronted by singer Natalie Horler and producers DJ Manian and Yanou, delivered an anthem that caught on with listeners worldwide. It dominated radio stations, clubs, and parties across the globe.

The single quickly climbed the charts, reaching top positions in several countries, including the UK, US, and throughout Europe. Its success was further amplified by its music video, which featured amazing energy and an upbeat vibe.

While “Everytime We Touch” is often associated with the 2000s dance scene, its influence on EDM cannot be overstated. The song helped bridge the gap between mainstream pop and electronic music, bringing dance music to a wider audience. Before Cascada’s hit, EDM was primarily an underground genre in clubs and festivals, but rarely breaking into the mainstream. “Everytime We Touch” was one of the tracks that changed that narrative.

Cascada’s success paved the way for a new wave of electronic artists to emerge and find commercial success. The song’ became a blueprint for future EDM hits, influencing artists and producers across the genre. In the years that followed, the fusion of pop and EDM would become a dominant force in the music industry, with artists like Calvin Harris, David Guetta, and The Chainsmokers continuing to blur the lines between the two genres.
