Potentially seeming out of place on this chart for 2009, When Love Takes Over was a huge success even in North America this year. It marked somewhat of a return for Kelly Rowland and the move for French DJ David Guetta into the mainstream. He had become a regular name in dance music in the past few years with several hits, but his pairing with Kelly truly allowed him to make his mark and he has had several hugely successful releases following this one which started it all. The song has even been nominated for a Grammy for best dance recording as well.
When Love Takes Over not only reached #1 in 8 European countries but it even reached #1 on the UK Singles chart - which is no small feat for a dance track. The mix of Kelly's vocals with that memorable intro and great beat all came together perfectly and makes this one that many will be touting as the best of the year. With David working with Britney Spears for her next release, we are certainly going to be hearing more from him in 2010.
