As Long As You Want This is the first studio album by the Dutch rock group Kane, released in 2000.

Production process

Before Kane recorded the album they released only one single in 1999 called Where Do I Go Now, which became a minor hit thanks to TMF (a Dutch music television station) and 3FM (a Dutch radio station).[1] In October 1999 they went into a recording studio to record 'As Long As You Want This'. The CD was recorded at 'The Wisseloord Studios' in Hilversum and in 'Studio Arnold Mühren' in Volendam. The album was produced by producers duo Haro Slok & Henk Jan Smits, together with Woesthoff.

Reception

As Long As You Want This was preceded by the single 'Where Do I Go Now'. The single peaked at #29 in the Dutch Top 40. The album nevertheless peaked at #2 in the Dutch Album Top 100. The album sold 40.000 copies in its first two months after the release date. Until now about 250.000 copies were sold in the Netherlands, making it 2 times Platinum.[2] In 2001 they received an Edison award for this album.[3]
