Does anyone else miss when pop music sounded like this? [BRITNEY RELATED BECAUSE BRITNEY WAS AN INTEGRAL PART OF THIS ERA AND HER MUSIC IS INCLUDED]

Do you also miss this magical ✨ era in pop music or it just me?  Discuss and feel free to include your favorite songs from this era as I included only a few.

Yes, although some of these aren’t really pop at all. I thought this was gonna be about the Max Martin kind of pop that Britney/BSB/*NSYNC and others bought to the forefront. I miss that hard hitting “pop with attitude” sound. Call me nostalgic but everything these days sounds so mellow and boring.

Yeah, I purposely included more of that pop-&b sound since I believe that music aged like the finest of wines from that era. To me, pop = popular/trendy music which was the case for all of those sounds. Pop music in general these days is just flat out horrible. Even the hip hop is getting worse.

EVERY SINGLE DAY!

The late 90s and early 2000s pop/r&b music was awesome!!
