Britney Spears, '...Baby One More Time'

The song that introduced the world to the most influential female pop artist to come around since Madonna was originally intended for TLC, but the R&B group rejected it. Once Swedish songwriter Max Martin met Spears, a new 15-year-old singer with Jive Records, he thought he had the right person for the track. Spears agreed. “I wanted my voice to be kind of rusty,” she told Rolling Stone years later. “I wanted my voice to just be able to groove with the track. So the night before, I stayed up really, really late, so when I went into the studio, I wasn’t rested.”

Britney Spears, 'Toxic'

After years of maximalist hits, the pop princess went for something a little more subtle with producers Bloodshy and Avant, who piled on James Bond guitar, Bollywood strings, and robo-funk vocoders — making for a different kind of song that felt sticky-sweet but also global and avant-garde. “Toxic” redefined Spears’ image and sound, but it almost wasn’t hers. “That was written in Sweden,” co-writer Cathy Dennis explained. “I went over there to write with Janet Jackson in mind.” The song didn’t end up making it to Jackson, and was then passed up by Kylie Minogue before getting into Spears’ hands.

GODxic #114?  

 

TOXIC is a cultural reset in pop music that still feels fresh in 2021 and they put it outside Top100? 

 

Even my grandma was addicted to TOXIC, gurl bye 

[Britneylandia]

Should’ve been way higher.

[Kletus]

Flop list. Toxic should have been #1, BOMT #2, Oops #3, and then the list should have stop right there. 

[Forever222]

I was hoping OIDIA or Gimme More made it! But 2 entries is not bad considering a lot of other pop stars during her time didn’t make a single song. 

I also agree her two songs should be higher.

Rolling Stone with yet another useless list of songs that no-one asked for. 

[No Seas Cortes]

Let me guess, Beyonce is somehow #1?

[CHAOTIC STYLE.]

Crazy In Love #16 but Toxic #114... PLSSSS, this is sick

Rolling Stones needs to stop

Really? Toxic isn’t higher on that list. C’mon now. And where is oops!?  

[Blackout2006]

These people who make such lists do realize that Toxic and BOMT are not the ONLY ever songs Britney has ever recorded in her 20 year long career? 

 

[Stefani]

Predictable that those would be the only songs by her that they know about.  Also don't they come up with this list every other year or something? I swear they made a similar list not too long ago. And wow, is this the first ever list that Bey didn't top?

Once again the injustice and underappreciation @PokemonSpears

she wasn't but she's the first main pop girl on the list with crazy in love at number 16. 

[bitbitboi]

114 and 205? Already a flop.

Which one is number 1? "Single Ladies"?
