"Stop playing with my mind" in 2000 (also reached #17 on the UK chart) was her fifth dance chart #1. She teamed up with Blaze on "Most precious love" in 2005. The Freemasons remix reached #17 on the UK chart, a year later. "Love Vibrations" (2007) and a cover of Lyn Collins' "Think (about it)" (2018) complete her collection of US Dance #1s.
