Me Against The Music Vs. Can't Remember To Forget You

[Verisimilitude]

Two hyped up female duets that were more popular through video play and sales, but not so much with radio. They also have polarizing opinions from the general public and have videos that tease on the subject of lesbianism. Which song do you prefer?

Rihanna & Shakira. "Me Against The Music" is the most major offender of all the female collaborations

[Agent Yoncé]

Both songs are absolutely awful. Now, I will only vote based on the videos & clearly 'MATM' has the better video. USA >>>>>.

Put It In A Love Song would like to have a word with you.

[think pink.]

"Me Against The Music". It's actually one of my favorite's from Brit and the video is iconic

[HolidayGuy]

Not a big fan of either, but probably MATM. My favorite version of that is the Gabriel & Dresden Club Mix.

I don't love "Me Against The Music" but I prefer that one. "Can't Remember to Forget You" has grown on me some since I first heard it, but not enough for me to vote for it.

[horchata]

Never understood the hate that "Me Against the Music" has garnered over the years, but I love it. I'd put in my personal top ten of Britney songs ever actually. "Can't Remember to Forget You" is alright and love the majority of Shakira's music, but eh not to the same level of MATM at all.

I love "Me Against the Music" and I don't understand why that is such an unpopular opinion, lol. I also really like the Shakira/Rihanna collabo, but it is underwhelming compared to MATM for me.

The Shakira/Rihanna collab is hardly "memorable" by any standards, sorry.

Doesn't make it memorable. Plus, the song's been out for less than a month. Give it 2-3 years before people remember probably have forgotten about it.

Me Against the Music always felt like a first draft that needed to be worked on a little bit more before being released. However, Can't...whatever the song title is is more like a draft of a song you write and then realize it is horrible so you throw it out and start over brainstorming. I have no idea how it became her first single especially since they seem to be gunning for huge radio success this time. So, Me Against the Music.

[LightYears]

I vote for Britney and Madonna.

'Me Against the Music' is actually a good song when you subtract Madonna and listen to the Britney-only versions. 'Can't Forget to Remember You' is terrible and would still be terrible no matter if any similar changes were made to it.

you just have to replace Rihanna/Shakira with Ke$ha and it becomes perfect

Worldwide, its impact has been pretty strong. Was the MATM video really that popular when it debut? CRTFY is close to passing "Telephone" in VEVO views and its only been out for 2 weeks. MATM peaked at #35 on the Hot 100.

In 2-3 years it might be one of the most viewed videos in VEVO history.

Can't Remember has peaked at a measily #15 on the United World Chart which includes all of the major markets worldwide in contrast to "Me Against The Music" which actually topped the charts for 4 consecutive weeks. In other words, that song was a worldwide hit and all the views in the world aren't helping the Shakira song sell. I love Shakira but the song is a bust imo.

I wasn't talking about the song, but the video. The video is breaking records, not the song.

Latin America is underrepresented in the United World Chart. A more realistic view of the current worldwide music scene would the Ultimate Chart. That's a worldwide chart that more accurately gauges a song's popularity:
ultimatechart.com/ On that chart, CRTFY peaked at #3 (thusfar).

Initally I was slightly disappointed with both of them but I will go with Britney and Madonna.
