Yeah alot of Britneys early stuff. I guess TRL made songs feel really big, even if they weren't massive on the radio

Torn and Iris don't really count bc of the Hot 100 rules at the time.

Billboard's treatment of this song made it seem CRIMINALLY underrated. The fact that even Amanda freakin' Perez ranked higher (on Hot 100 & Year-End) really frustrates me.

Like everyone else said, Britney's pre-blackout singles. These songs were massive

1. Sometimes peaked at #21 (should've been top 10)
2. Crazy peaked at #10 (should've been top 3)
3. Born To Make You Happy didn't even chart

4. Oops I Did It Again peaked at #9 (should've been #1)
5. Lucky peaked at #23 (should've been top 10)
6. Stronger peaked at #11 (should've been top 5)
7. I'm A Slave 4 U peaked at #27 (should've been top 10)
8. Toxic peaked at #9 (should've been #1)
9. Everytime peaked at #15 (should've been top 10)
10. My Prerogative didn't even chart

If streaming had been available during Britney's early days, would she have like 20 #1s? Reading all your posts about Britney's songs not peaking higher is sad. Surprised Slave, Oops, Crazy, Sometimes, and most esp. Toxic peaked only at those positions.

Yup, at least in the UK she had way more successful peaks
I believe Toxic, Everytime, & Born To Make You Happy went number 1 there as well.

Wait that didn't chart? Is that because of Billboards rules then?

I remember American Idiot seeming bigger than Boulevard of Broken Dreams and American Idiot didn't even make the top 40. Altho Billboard started including Itunes sales in the Hot 100 between the releases of American Idiot and Boulevard of Broken Dreams and American Idiot probably would have benefited hugely from Itunes sales being included.
