In October, Lasgo also won the best national single award on the Belgian TMF Awards 2001. At the same time, it went [[music recording sales certification|gold]] with 25,000 copies sold. Lasgo's debut single "[[Something (Lasgo song)|Something]]" was released in the summer of 2001 and became a [[hit record|hit]] all around Europe, charting at #5 in Belgium as well as #4 in the [[UK Singles Chart]].<ref name="British Hit Singles & Albums">{{cite book | first= David | last= Roberts | year= 2006 | title= British Hit Singles & Albums | edition= 19th | publisher= Guinness World Records Limited | location= London | isbn= 1-904994-10-5 | page= 313}}</ref> In November 2001, Lasgo released their second single "Alone". This single was taken from Lasgo's debut album, ''[[Some Things]]'', released on 19 November 2001. The music video for "Alone" was shot in a large office in [[Berlin]], [[Germany]]. Due to Lasgo's international appeal, Luts was asked to remix [[Delerium]]'s track "Underwater" for EMI Germany, and also crafted a remix for [[Aurora UK|Aurora]]'s song "The Day It Rained Forever" on Positiva Records (UK). During 2002, Lasgo was nominated for several awards: International Dance Club Hit of the Year (with "Something") and International New Dance Group of the Year at the Danish Dance Awards and Best Trance Act at the Dancestar World Music Awards 2002 (which was won by [[Ian Van Dahl]]'s song "Castles in the Sky"). In August 2002, "Alone" was released in the UK and charted there at #7. It peaked at #3 in Belgium, making it their highest peaking song by them on the Belgian Charts. The debut album ''Some Things'' was released in the UK at the same time and peaked at #30 in the [[UK Albums Chart]]. "Pray" peaked at #17 in December that year.<ref name="British Hit Singles & Albums"/> At around the same time, ''Some Things'' was released in the [[United States]]. In November 2002, Lasgo won the ''[[Smash Hits]]'' award for Best Dance Act of the Year 2002 in the UK. December 2002 marked the release of the second version of ''Some Things'' in Belgium. The re-release featured three new songs ("Searching", "You" and "I Wonder") along with [[remix]]es of their hits. In February 2003, A&S Productions held a party in Club CarrΓ© in [[Willebroek]], Belgium, to celebrate the success of Lasgo and Van Dahl, both in Belgium and abroad. In 2004 Lasgo wins an [[EBBA Awards|EBBA]] Award.
