#39. From The Bottom Of My Broken Heart

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/14/BS_FTBOMBroken_Heart.jpg/250px-BS_FTBOMBroken_Heart.jpg

Score: 71.5

Highest Rates: Alex rus = 9.5 & Nick F1 = 9

Lowest Rates: Mr Aly = 0

 

Okay the first one out and not that surprisingly, as this track never found a UK release, taken from her first album "Baby One More Time", this song was released in USA instead of the much better track "Born To Make You Happy" I dunno why and it did do quite well over there reaching #14 in the charts and it was also released in Canada, Australia and New Zealand and gained Top 40 positions in each country. On this rate it was thanks to 3 non votes and 1 zero is what really brought the scores down to a paltry 71.5, and the rest of the scores were mostly middling never higher than 9.5. In my opinion this single is not one of my faves from her anyway, a bit too cheesy and sickly sweet for my taste.

38. Ooh La La

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/8/89/Britney_Spears_-_Ooh_La_La.png/250px-Britney_Spears_-_Ooh_La_La.png

Score: 74

Highest Rates = Regina = 10

Lowest Rates = Conderella & Atonement = 0

 

Next one out is "Ooh La La" one of Britney's more recent efforts coming out last year and featured on the Smurfs 2 soundtrack, and becoming basically a flop single peaking at only #72 in the UK, and reaching #54 in the USA and in fact basically flopping everywhere only reaching low positions on all the main worldwide charts, #73 in France, #86 in Germany, #54 in Japan and #37 in Canada. Also didn't do very well on this singles rate scoring just one 10 and quite a few zeros and ones.

 

 

Okay the rest of the results I will be posting throughout the next couple of days.

37. Someday (I Will Understand)

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/d/d1/Someday_(I_Will_Understand)_2.png/220px-Someday_(I_Will_Understand)_2.png

Score: 78.5

Highest Rates: Tyler 10

Lowest Rates: Mr Aly 3 & plus 4 non votes

 

Coming in at #37, this single is not one of Britney's most remembered hits due to the fact that it wasn't released in the UK or USA, in fact only released in a select few countries and hitting the top 10 in Denmark, Hungary, Italy, Sweden and Swiss. Released in 2005 this little tearjerker was brought out to promote her reality TV series with her then husband Kevin Federline, and had limited promotion due to Britney being pregnant at the time. Someday didn't score that many low scores mainly scoring 6's, 7's and 8's, it was down to the fact that 4 people didn't vote for this track is what brought it's final score down.

Score: 83

Highest Rates = Regina 9

Lowest Rates = -1 Mr Aly

 

At #36 is her cover of Joan Jetts and the Blackhearts and actually not a bad cover, the fifth single taken from her third album "Britney" and was actually quite successful worldwide hitting the top 10 in Austria, Germany, Hungary and Ireland, while reaching top 20 in Australia, Belgium, Finland, Italy, Netherlands, Sweden, Swiss and the UK. In my opinion this is not the worst single from her third album and on this rate this track didn't score very highly only 1 nine and a few eights and nothing higher and then a few middling scores.

Score: 86

Highest Rates: Acidburn 10

Lowest Rates: Mr Aly, Regina, Euphorine & Jade 6 & 3 non votes

 

At #35 is another single from the "Britney" album released only in France as the fifth single over there and reaching #38 in the charts becoming a minor success and should have been pushed as a single in the UK and Europe as it's one of the album's finer tracks and one of my faves. "Anticipating" didn't do that badly on this rate scoring no lower in a 6 and scoring mainly 7's and 8's, it was thanks to the non votes that brought it's score down.

34. Outrageous

Score: 88.5

Highest Rates: Regina & ROB 10

Lowest Rates: Mr Aly 0 & 2 non votes

 

At #34 is the 4th single from Britney's fourth album "In The Zone" and easily the least popular single from that album in this rate, written by R Kelly and released only in USA and Japan peaking at #79 and #31, a flop compared to the other 3 singles which all reached the Top 40, which is probably due to the fact that there was no music video due to Britney injuring her knee and therefore recieved next to no promotion. Personally I don't like this track and there were much better songs on the album like "Breathe On Me" or "I Got That (Boom Boom)" Despite scoring pretty high marks towards the end after getting pretty low scores at the start, that still didn't do enough to save this track.

Score: 90.5

Highest Rates: ROB 9

Lowest Rates: Mr Aly & Jsily 1

 

At #33 by just 2 points is another final single, this time from her second album "Oops I Did It Again" where despite a saucy video and written by Shania Twain, this track become Britney's first official flop single by missing USA billboard charts Top 100 by peaking at #112, and plus her first single to miss the UK top 10 by peaking at #12. Again with this track the scores began to pick up towards the end but it was the low and muddling scores that this track got at the beginning which let down it's overall score and therefore becoming the first of her "Oops I Did It Again" era singles to bow out.

32. And Then We Kiss

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/e/eb/And_Then_We_Kiss.png/220px-And_Then_We_Kiss.png

Score: 97.5

Highest Rates: Regina & Nick F1 11

Lowest Rates: Atonement 5 & 4 non votes

 

At #32 is this rare track that was only released in New Zealand & Australia but failed to chart as there was no music video and no promotion due to Britney being pregnant at the time. This track was originally recorded for the "In The Zone" album but didn't make the cut and was there remixed and included on her remix album. Although this track is pretty decent it is surprising that's it scored so well on this rate gaining 2 11's and 2 10's and a few 7's and 8's, and especially beating out several of her more well known songs, well it just goes to show just how unpredictable this forum is.

31. Scream & Shout (Ft Will .I. Am)

http://www.disneydreaming.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/Britney-Spears-William-Scream-And-Shout-Single-Cover.jpg

Score: 99.5

Highest Rates: Acidburn & ROB 10

Lowest Rates: Atonement & Conderlla -1

 

Just missing the top 30 and the last of the songs in this rate to score under 100 points is the Will I Am track "Scream & Shout" and it's one of the few times Britney has collaborated with someone on a single release. This track became a massive success worldwide topping the UK charts for the first time in nine years and hitting #1 in Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Canada, Croatia, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Lebanon, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Scotland, Spain, Swiss, Turkey and Venezuela, while hitting #3 in USA and peaking top 5 in several others. So it's a surprise that it's ranked so low on this rate. It started off so well gaining 9's and 10's in the beginning, then it dipped in the middle and got a little better towards the end.

Some of my faves gone already :(

30. 3

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/7/7d/Britney_Spears_3.png/220px-Britney_Spears_3.png

Score: 102

Highest Rates: Joseph Simpson, Tyler & ROB 10

Lowest Rates: Mr Aly 1

 

Now starting off the Top 30 is the threesome saucey Prince inspired single "3", which was the first and only single taken from her 2nd Greatest Hits album titled "The Singles Collection" which pretty much tanked, but this track didn't by topping the USA and Canada charts and reaching top 10 in the UK and several other countries. This is not a bad track not one of my faves but it's okay and did manage to gain 8 highscores on this rate but also gained 7 low scores as well which is why it ranked pretty low.

29. Boys (Ft Pharrell Williams)

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/2/27/Boys_COED_rmx.png/220px-Boys_COED_rmx.png

Score: 104

Highest Rates: Conderella & ROB=10

Lowest Rates: Mr Aly= 0 & 1 non vote

 

Edging it's way into the top 30 at #29 is "Boys" the fourth single from the "Britney" album and also the 3rd out of 6 singles to bow out. This track was originally recorded by Janet Jackson but never got released and so Britney snapped it up for her third album, and it was also used to promote the Austin Powers movie Goldmember which was a huge success, but this wasn't so much despite it being remixed to feature Pharrell Williams, this track still tanked on the USA chart peaking at a measly #122, but did fare a lot better in the UK charting at #7 and gained top 20 positions in Australia, Belgium, Denmark, Germany, Netherlands, Sweden and Swiss. So not all that bad but personally this is my least fave out of the third album singles as I only rated it a 3, but the other scores weren't that bad on this rate gaining 2 10's, 2 9's and a few 8's, but it did also gain a few low and middle scores as well.

28. Do Somethin'

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/5/5e/Do_Somethin'.png/220px-Do_Somethin'.png

Score: 105.5

Highest Rates: Mr Aly & Tyler = 10

Lowest Rates: Regina = 3 & 1 non vote

 

At #28 by just 1.5 points is "Do Somethin'" the second single from Britney's first Greatest Hits album and became quite successful reaching the UK top 10 as well as charting top 10 in Australia, Belgium, Denmark, Hungary, Ireland & Sweden as well as top 20 positions in Germany, Netherlands, Norway and Switzerland and despite not being released in the USA managed to chart on the top 100 at #100 beating out her previous single which failed to make the top 100. "Do Somethin" is a catchy number and did gain a few high scores towards the end, it was the non vote and a few muddling scores that let this track down.

27. Criminal

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/6/60/Criminal_cover.png/220px-Criminal_cover.png

Score: 110

Highest Rates: Jade, Nick F1 & Liam = 10

Lowest Rates: Mr Aly & Acidburn = 4 & 2 non votes

 

At #27 with a pretty decent score of 110 is "Criminal" the fourth and final single taken from Britney's 7th studio album "Femme Fatale" where despite being a fan fave pretty much tanked on the USA charts at #55 given the fact that the previous singles all made Top 10 and didn't even get released in the UK, but it did gain Top 20 positions in France and Canada but flopped everywhere else apart from a few smaller regions. "Criminal" is not a track that I'm all too familiar with to be honest, quite forgettable in my opinion but it did do quite well on this rate gaining 3 10's, a 9.5 and 6 8's but it was the 2 non votes that affected this track from peaking higher.
