QuickCheck: Was a dance track played on air and in malls on its 25th anniversary?
IN TODAY'S digital age, the success of a song is often seen in how it goes viral on social media, but back in the day, it was all about airplay and charts. Twenty-five years ago, iconic Eurodance track "Sandstorm" by Darude was released internationally and went on to become Finland's most commercially successful single of all time. Is it true that to mark the occasion, radio stations and shopping centres throughout the country played the track simultaneously? VERDICT: TRUE Taking to his official social media channels, Finnish DJ and producer Darude shared the news that the track was played simultaneously throughout his home country on May 8, 2025. "What an honour. At 9.15 this morning, radio stations and shopping centres across Finland came together to play Sandstorm at exactly the same time to celebrate 25 years! "You could hear it in malls, schools, everywhere! Thank you everyone," Darude said in his Instagram post. The DJ and producer also announced that Sept 6 would be the Helsinki date for his #STORM25 tour. Meanwhile, industry magazine DJ Mag reported that Sandstorm was one of Finland's most successful commercial singles of all time, having spent 17 weeks in the upper reaches of the country's dance chart upon release. It added that the track had initially been released in Finland in October 1999, but was re-released globally in 2000. DJ Mag also said the track had since become a viral sensation multiple times over, having gained momentum as an online meme in the past decade or so. It also reported that in 2018, it had even become the alarm sound of an actual sandstorm detector and most recently was featured in the trailer for the new Bandai Namco action RPG Sand Land. What an honour. At 09:15 this morning, radio stations and shopping centers across Finland came together to play Sandstorm at exactly the same time to celebrate 25 years! You could hear it in malls, schools, everywhere! Thank you everyone! > > — Darude (@Darudevil) Darudevil/status/ 1920512285455360329?ref_src= twsrc%5Etfw ">May 8, 2025 SOURCES: - sandstorm-played- simultaneously-finnish-radio- stations-celebrate-25th- anniversary - darude-sandstorm-act-alarm- actual-sandstorm-detector

90s pop megastar has barely aged a day as she stuns in tiny leather catsuit after health battle – can you guess who?
THIS nineties pop megastar looks like she has barely aged a day in a tiny leather catsuit. This singer, now 55, was known for a VERY catchy tune that hit the Number One spot - but can you guess who it is? 7 This 90s pop star showed off her incredible figure Credit: TikTok 7 Now 55, this star had a massive Number One hit Credit: TikTok 7 The star is Whigfield - who shot to fame with her hit single Saturday Night in 1994 7 Whigfield burst onto the scene in the 90s Credit: Getty 7 The singer looks like she hasn't aged day Credit: Instagram / @whigfield The star in question is Danish singer Whigfield. She first shot to fame with the chart topping single Saturday Night which hit Number One in the UK in 1994. But the Eurodance singer - whose real name is Sannie Charlotte Carlson - doesn't appear to have aged day since the 90s. Back in the day she was known for rocking boob tubes and baggy cargo pants. In the new snaps, Whigfield shows off her timeless figure in a skintight catsuit. The blonde bombshell, who now lives in the outskirts of Milan, previously opened up about her huge 90s song, Saturday Night. She told Daily Star: "I got sick of it in the mid-90s because I performed it so much, you know when you have to sell a song it's not the same as [performing it live]. "When I had to do television and promotion generally, it's not the same as when you go out on stage and perform it. "They're two different things. So I still love doing it in festivals, but if I have to do it on TV shows and stuff it's a bit naff." BREAST CANCER JOURNEY In November, Whigfield opened up about having breast cancer 10 years ago, with a throwback picture of herself having treatment. Whigfield - Saturday Night "Fighting breast cancer was a strange thing," the Danish pop star wrote in a candid Instagram post. She said: "One moment I was living my best life making new music in London, the next I was stuck in a bubble of numbness. "Even though the operations and radiation therapies where tough, I got so much strength from seeing so many other patients including kids fighting this horrible disease, and many never left the San Raffaele hospital in Milan again." The pop icon explained that she'd posted the pic in the hope of raising awareness around breast cancer. "I hope this pic - taken during radiation therapy - doesn't offend anyone but helps to get checked once in while, even though you're feeling amazing." She wished her followers a "healthy and happy life". 7 Whigfield often shows off her timeless figure Credit: Instagram / @whigfield
