#10 Womanizer // Score: 65

(Ultraviolence1989: 10)

 

Beating BTMYH to the top 10 by just 2 points, is 'Womanizer', the lead single off of #B6 AKA Circus. 'Womanizer' boasts a sassy and memorable video in which Britney plays a Black-wigged fearsome office woman, gets naked and steamy in the sauna etc. There's a lot going on. Admittedly not my favourite Britney song, but its obviously a huge sounding single and exactly what she needed to release at the time - it's earned its place as one of her most iconic.

#09 Stronger // Score: 66

(Joe., SamJudd: 10. Robot, Jonjo, Jay: 8)

 

'Stronger' *.* What a banger. This is one of the songs that defines my early teens, and the first Britney song I bought on release week! It's hard to pinpoint exactly what is so strong about 'Stronger', it's just structured so simply but so powerfully and includes one of those iconic Britney key changes. The video is another great one, where Britney is dealing with a douchey guy but performs some chair voodoo to make things better.

'Stronger' is phenomenal. It's so noughties but so anthemic. I genuinely believe that with one huge performance boost on XF or BGT or something, the UK would take to it again.

I agree that Break The Ice is slightly to high :ph34r:

 

Stronger has recently clicked with me again, I have phase when is just ok, and when is simply amazing, like now :wub:

#08 (You Drive Me) Crazy // Score: 69

(Robot: 10. Josh, Kye: 9)

 

 

Much like 'Stronger', '(You Drive Me) Crazy' is another must-have from the early Britney catalogue. Though BTMYH is a dancable, mid-tempo number, 'Crazy' was her only other big, up tempo dance-pop single (with 'Baby' of course) until the second album, so it really stood out at the time. The album version is nice, but a little flat, however the 'Stop Remix' which was the version released as a single makes the song work so much better. I wish album track releases still had such perfect single mixes made these days. '(You Drive Me) Crazy' was partnered with a dodgy rom-com with a very similar title, which is why Melissa Joan Hart and Adrian Grenier star in the music video here.

MJH is so iconic in that video. It's SO of it's time.. I remember being like "OMG Sabrina is in the video!".

I'm glad this made the top 10. Should be at least one space higher though.. :angry:

Your wish is my command.

 

#07 Till The World Ends // Score: 70

(AaronTM: 10. Joe., Ryan: 9)

 

Easily the best of Britney's very dancey numbers, 'Till The World Ends', picks up almost 3x the amount of points than 'Hold it Against Me' does, and it still frustrates me today that Brit didn't release this as the lead single, since it's so much more popular and I'm pretty sure ended up selling more despite lower peaks. It's so popular in fact, it's chosen as her encore and closer in Vegas. The 'Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh...'s are just so infectious and the production from King Max Martin and he-who-shall-not-be-named is just so perfect. Kesha also has a writing credit, which can never be seen as a bad thing!

eww @ TTWE being in top10

 

 

It always comes top 10 in her rates/ranks though, it's one of her most popular songs!

*Mourns for Born to Make You Happy missing the Top 10* :snif:

 

Stronger & Crazy :wub: Both incredible.

 

I actually like Break the Ice, but I don't believe it's deserving of Top 6~
