Steve Angello (born Steven Angello Josefsson Fragogiannis on November 22, 1982) is a Greek-Swedish DJ, producer, and record label owner. He is part of a three person group dubbed the Swedish House Mafia.
Angello was born to a Greek father and Swedish mother in Athens, Greece. His father was killed when Steve was a teenager. Raised in Stockholm, Sweden, he found himself submerged in the world of music that he so loved and came to cherish. He started out as a Turntablist, fusing hip-hop, breakbeats and 70's classics but later moved onto House music, in the club life of Stockholm, together with his best friend Sebastian Ingrosso.
Steve Angello's claim to fame came when he released his remix of Eurythmics "Sweet Dreams" in late 2004. Since then he has exploded onto the house music scene. In 2007 his eternal club banger, a remix of Robin S "Show Me Love" was released on Data Records.
Angello produces under several different aliases. On his own, he has called himself Who's Who and released tracks called "Not So Dirty" and "Sexy Fuck". He often works closely with his childhood friend Sebastian Ingrosso on many projects. Aside from DJing together, they have also produced under the names Buy Now, Fireflies, General Moders, Mode Hookers, Outfunk, and The Sinners. Most recently, they released "Bodycrash" under their Buy Now alias, sampling the 1978 disco hit "Let's All Chant" by the Michael Zager Band. The track was first played by Pete Tong on his Radio 1 show in late 2007. Eventually, the Dirty South remix of the tune leaked out onto the Internet in January 2008. The track has since received a much larger release via Positiva Records, also including the Laidback Luke remix.
Then he was a young girl
But since she lived a hundred lives
Dance street from Motown
In a cloud of smoke he caught her rise
Never will they wander
Never will they be the same inside
Then she kissed him softly
And walked into the stillness of the night
[Chorus]
Wasted love
Why you always give so much?
Wasted Love
You know I gave you all my heart
Wasted Love
Get up I always give too much
But it's never too much
[Beat Drop]
Wasted love
Why you always give so much?
But it's never too much
[End of Drop]
Still her ghost
Is lingering
Down that dusty road
Of broken dreams
I try my luck
On a little flame
She became
The fire within
[Chorus]
Wasted love
Why you always give so much?
Wasted Love
You know I gave you all my heart
Wasted Love
You always give too much
But it's never enough
Wasted love
Why you always give so much?
But it's never enough
