The music video expands on this theme, although it suggests a reunion of the couple, which is not referenced in the song itself. The song's theme is different from "Boten Anna" "Boten Anna" is about an IRC bot, and "Now You're Gone" is about a young couple breaking up. It was this song that eventually became released as a single.

In 2007, DJ Mental Theo used the " Boten Anna" instrumental to create a bootleg English-language version for his DJ sets in Magaluf, Mallorca.

Swedish music producer Robert Uhlmann produced the song with Basshunter. And while everything past track four is essentially an inferior rehash of what's gone before, for 12 or 13 minutes Now You're Gone: The Album is pure pop bliss.Dutch DJ Mental Theo's Bazzheadz collaborated with Swedish musician Basshunter on "Now You're Gone". Where Basshunter succeeds, and others fail, is that he's got a genuine ear for an unforgettable melody. "Dota" lifts the entire chorus melody from "Daddy DJ" right down to the last cadence, while "Please Don't Go" and duet "I Miss You" mine the Stock, Aitken & Waterman production style for all it's worth. "Now You're Gone" recalls the O Zone's infectious hit "Dragostea Din Tei," complete with robotically altered vocal effects. Not surprisingly, Now You're Gone: The Album is unashamedly formulaic. Now You're Gone: The Album is Basshunter's first English-language album, featuring English-language remakes of tracks from his second Swedish release, LOL, as well as the Swedish originals "Boten Anna" and "Dota" (re-recorded as "All I Ever Wanted"). and Irish charts in late 2007 with an English version of the same song.

More than a decade later, though, another "happy hardcore" sensation arrived in the form of 23-year-old Swede Jonas Altberg - better known as Basshunter - who achieved multi-platinum success in mainland Europe with his 2006 single "Boten Anna," and topped the U.K. During its early-'90s heyday, few could have predicted the enduring resilience of the Euro-dance format.
