So I've been listening to Ella Henderson's album recently and 'Ghost' really is the best thing on there and one of the best singles of the year so far. I'd also say it's one of the best pop debut singles for many years. What songs would you consider to be the best pop debuts? These are the 5 I instantly thought of.

Britney Spears - …Baby One More Time
Ella Henderson - Ghost
Girls Aloud - Sound Of The Underground
One Direction - What Makes You Beautiful
Spice Girls - Wannabe

All The Things She Said will hardly ever been beaten as debuts. I know that sounds like loon talk but the production, structure and impact was awesome.

I have to agree with 'All The Things She Said', amazing song and had a massive impact. Of course Britney too.

And I have to add 'Once' by Diana Vickers. wub.gif

Unpopular opinion, but for me 'Genie In A Bottle' is a better debut than '... Baby One More Time', although I am aware its status is nowhere near as high.

(Still love '... Baby' of course though)

She'd released low-key stuff in Canada before 'Call Me Maybe', kind of in the same way that most people think of Jagged Little Pill as being Alanis Morissette's debut album when it isn't.

Yeah Carly had four singles before Call Me Maybe from her debut album. Similar in a way to Delta Goodrem releasing I Don't Care, a relative flop and a completely different sound to anything she did later, before her commercial breakthrough hit Born To Try.
