This is one of those songs that didn't really hit me as a single choice until the video premiered. The video (which is classy and outstanding btw x) really made the song click with me in such a huge way! I was dubious about this song as a single at first but everything just CLICKED. Top tier CiCi for me and I'm so pleased to see it finish in the top 10! Such a brilliant song. So smooth, classy and irresistably catchy! It's a shame it wasn't really a hit anywhere </3 It managed to hit the Billboard Hot 100 though... at #100 *.* FULL RESULTS| 01. --- 02. --- 03. --- 04. --- 05. --- 06. --- 07.

June 3, 20205 yr Dance Like Were Making Love is probably in my top 5! As much as I love Goodies and 1,2 Step her more overlooked releases beyond her debut album are more interesting and clever imo
June 3, 20205 yr Dance Like Were Making Love is STUNNING both song and video. The video is probably one of her best ever imo .

I didn't realise this was so popular? It's a good song, I just feel like she has done this type of thing, to greater effect before and I think this being as high as 6 is a tad too high, imo. Especially as it's beaten some absolute faves of mine! It's nice, it just doesn't do much for me. This was a hit in the US, reaching #22 on the Billboard Hot 100 and ending at #83 for the year! Good, but she has better, imo. FULL RESULTS| 01. --- 02. --- 03. --- 04. --- 05. --- 06. BODY PARTY [8.96] 07. DANCE LIKE WE'RE MAKING LOVE [8.90 - ONE 11] 08.

June 3, 20205 yr Author Your top 5 are: Goodies (feat. Petey Pablo) Like A Boy Love Sex Magic (feat. Justin Timberlake) 1, 2 Step (feat. Missy Elliott) Overdose I can reveal ALL 5 SONGS have a 9+ average!
June 3, 20205 yr Body Party is cute but not a fave! I find her big hits quite overrated even though I still.lovr.thrm.obviously :( Overdose or Like A Boy to win!
June 3, 20205 yr I echo the Overdose/Like A Boy to win comment! Both stellar CiCi moments and very underrated!
June 3, 20205 yr I'd like it to go... 1. Overdose 2. Like A Boy 3. Goodies 4. Love Sex Magic 5. 1, 2 Step Some superior tracks have definitely missed out here.
June 5, 20205 yr Author 05 | OVERDOSE [Avg. 9.03] H I G H E S T | Liam (11) L O W E S T | blacksquare (07) n2tVKoAhPls Straight into the top 5 we go and starting us off, is the cancelled, final single from her self titled era, OVERDOSE. When 'Ciara' was released, 'Overdose' became an instant fan favourite. It became a fave with critics alike, who campaigned for it to become a single. Even though it impacted some US radio formats, the release was eventually fully scrapped, including the music video </3 It's a shame, because I imagine with the strong reviews, it wouldn't have needed to have been given a full push in order to become a hit and with a little bit more, it could have been a decent sized one at the least. It's her most outright pop song, but what a banger it is! SO good! FULL RESULTS| 01. --- 02. --- 03. --- 04. --- 05. OVERDOSE [9.03] 06. BODY PARTY [8.96] 07.

June 5, 20205 yr Amazing to finish in the top 5 but I was hoping it would be top 2! :( Like A Boy to win now. :cheer:
June 5, 20205 yr Author 04 | LOVE SEX MAGIC (feat. Justin Timberlake) [Avg. 9.16] H I G H E S T | ...ready for it, SamJudd, Liam, blacksquare & troylovesmusic (10) L O W E S T | Nick F1 (07.5) raB8z_tXq7A At number 4 is Ciara's first major hit as a lead since 'Like A Boy' managed to go top 20 in 2007, 2 years prior. LOVE SEX MAGIC featured man of the moment Justin Timberlake (Summer 2009 was literally all him as a feature lol) in a super sensual, sexy and smooth jam. LSM was an instant smash as it debuted at #6 and then climbed to it's peak of #5 one week later, here in the UK and spent over a month in the UK top 10! The song was a big hit in the US too as it reached #10 on the Billboard Hot 100. What's even better about LSM smashing was that it was at the same time as 'Takin' Back My Love' started to pick up momentum in the UK charts too, so CiCi was really smashing it at that point! WE STAN. Anyway, this is an eternal bop. It's not aged "great" and not aged "awfully", it's ageing quite nicely. FULL RESULTS| 01. --- 02. --- 03. --- 04. LOVE SEX MAGIC (feat.

June 5, 20205 yr Author Goodies vs Like A Boy vs 1, 2 Step WHICH SONG IS CROWNED THE CHAMPION? What would be your preferred winner?
June 5, 20205 yr I’d be happy with any of them winning. What a solid top three. Goodies is my favourite of the three but only just, they’re all 10/10s :heart: I’m glad Love Sex Magic didn’t make the top three, it’s great but not one of her absolute best like the remaining three are.
June 5, 20205 yr Author 03 | GOODIES (feat. Petey Pablo) [Avg. 9.40] H I G H E S T | troylovesmusic & rafik4u (11) L O W E S T | Riser (07.5) YtC92pzp5vw So the song that started it ALL! GOODIES falls short of being victorious and finishing 3rd. 'Goodies' stormed it's way to the UK #1 position in early 2005, where it currently remains as Ciara's only #1 here in the UK, but the first of many hits! The song was a gigantic smash as it charted worldwide and managed to get the US Billboard Hot 100 #1 in 2004, too! It's crazy just how FRESH this still sounds and to think it was a pinnacle for the start of the whole "crunk" phase. The average is crazy good, so #3 isn't a bad result at all!

June 5, 20205 yr Goodies is one I never appreciated at the time but I enjoy it these days and it still sounds fresh! I'm so happy Like A Boy is top 2! Come on. :cheer: 1,2 Step wouldn't be a bad winner though.
June 5, 20205 yr What a stellar top 4 (I like Overdose but I don't think it should been at 5) Love Sex and Magic is such a bop and has aged really well . Goodies was lowkey robbed of winning but i'll let it go. That for me has to be one of the best debut singles ever. Edited June 5, 20205 yr by troylovesmusic
June 5, 20205 yr I know it's probably an iconic song, but '1, 2 Step' has came way too high here. I think 'Like A Boy' would be a decent winner.
