boyinthemirror Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 Isn’t it crazy in how many ways Britney and Christina crossed paths? Never in a million years would I expect this. Also, both Genie and Irresistible are perfect pop songs. She should write something for Britney someday. It’s so nice to see the face behind the music 1 Link to comment
Super Mods princessmimi Posted September 20, 2021 Super Mods Share Posted September 20, 2021 As much as I love Genie, its a good thing that Britney didnt record the song cause its more sxual and kinda went against the innocent schoolgirl "virgin" image she had in her debut. It would've contradict that. Link to comment

The album version of "What a Girl Wants" had to be remixed into that upbeat Britney Spears-ish type pop sound before it became a hit. There were no other songs on her debut album that had that upbeat teen pop sound. Had "Genie in a Bottle" not been Christinas song, we don't really know what RCA would have done with her or what song would have been the next single. I think they would have released "When you put your hands on me" because thats the closest thing they had to a Britney sound.... and it would not have done as good as Genie; even if they marketed Christina along side Britney, as it happened. 2 Link to comment
Freakshow__ Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 I'm really glad that didn't happen. BOMT is like a billion times better than Genie. 7 Link to comment

It’s so nice to see the face behind the music by the way, I've always wondered why they never took a photo together after they became famous, the only pictures of them posing together are from the MMC. before all the shade between both in 2003, I mean, officially they coincided in many events vma's 2000 they appeared together on stage but they didn't take a picture together, Vma's 2003, not even in the rehearsals they didn't take pictures, why? even Xtina was also there on the night of the vma's 2008 and they didn't come close. maybe they have more photos together but they have not come to light yet... 1 1 Link to comment
Brother Shawn Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 Genie in a bottle is Xtincta’s only good song tbh 1 Link to comment
G-unit Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 Britney wasn’t associated with Innocense in 1997 though, was she? I thought she had already decided against doing a girl group in like 1996 Link to comment

gapeach704 Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 Thank the man above for this missed opportunity. Such a forgotten song, especially in comparison to the ICONIC, TIMELESS, BOMT 1 Link to comment
gapeach704 Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 The fact that Xtinas first song was originally meant for Britney is HILARIOUS to me Imagine having to sing this for the rest of her life and the world knowing it was meant for Britney 3 Link to comment
mr. ferret Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 This song is so tacky I can't Thank God it didn't happen. Baby was and still is so much better. Link to comment
TheBestFan Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 the main thing iconic about Genie in a Bottle is that it was made by a Britney competitor of the same age. That was really the main appeal. 1 Link to comment

I think it's because Xtina is such a bish. I mean she's pretty notorious on how arrogant she was in the industry. Avril and Mary J Blige hate her, just to name a few. Link to comment

I thought she had already decided against doing a girl group in like 1996 Britney left the group months after she joined; which was in 1997. The reason why it took so long to sell the song is because there was no real market for it until Britney came out with BOMT. Kiki ( the writer) sang Genie in a more acoustic style, so I'm sure the demo also sounded very different from Christinas version. 1 Link to comment
