I’m a Slave 4 U released on September 24, 2001.

A music video for the single, which was directed by Francis Lawrence, was released along with the single released.

The music video was nominated in three categories at the 2002 MTV Video Music Awards for Best Female Video, Best Dance Video, and Best Choreography.

Timeless sound that survived every generation

Some facts:

The "4U" is a Prince thing. He has many songs with numbers and capital letters in the titles, including "I Would Die 4U."

Slave 4 U was intended for Janet Jackson for her All for You album.

Before the Goodbye was originally supposed to be the lead single, but this was changed because Britney soon recorded 'I'm a Slave 4 U' and also because of BT's conflict/problems with Jive.

I don’t know 

Best female video and best dance video was Pink’s “Get The Party Started”, best choreography Kylie Minogue’s “Can’t Get You Out Of My Head”

is the "4" really a Prince thing though? sounds more like adults pandering and trying to be hip and get with the times, sounds like a 00s tween girl texting on her BlackBerry..

that's the question we kept asking for her entire prime.

When they finally gave her her first moonman, for POM, I was like "Why did this actually win?   "

It is. I remember at the time, when Pharrell talked about the single he mentioned channeling some Prince when he was writing it.
