Which of these songs do you consider her last "hit"?

I still think Heartbeat Song, cause it reached top 40 and almost top 20. It charted for 20 weeks, as well. So I think it's moderate hit. Not massive though, but still hit.

I am undecided whether I should consider Heartbeat Song a hit or not. Like, it wasn't a total flop, but it did really under-perform and I honestly think no one but hardcore fans will remember it or even remember it now. Her last major, memorable hit was obviously Stronger. But, Catch My Breath did pretty well in airplay, right? Much better than Dark Side which I would not really consider a hit at all. Though, didnt it do as well as HBS?

Yeah, I don't see why HBS wouldn't be considered a hit. It did respectably on radio and sold well. It floated around in the upper tier of iTunes for a while, if I recall correctly. Of course it'll pale in comparison to "Stronger", which is where I think it might be hard to consider everything she's put out afterwards a "hit" since none of them have measured up to that song's hugeness (although "Underneath the Tree" is certainly second to it, based on this list of songs).

I'd still say Heartbeat Song. I'm still kinda surprised that it wasn't a bigger hit than it was. Aside for under performing on pop radio vs what everyone expected, it did do well across the board on other charts.

GTFO with all the Heartbeat Song votes. That was far from a hit.
I'd say Stronger.

Personally, I'd say WDKYMYS.

From my pov it's definitely Underneath The Tree. That's probably because it was definitely more successful among other Christmas songs, the ones it was competing. At least that's how I see it.

Let's be real, her last true smash hit was Stronger. CMB was a minor hit and HBS was a borderline flop.

All the trolls must be voting for "Stronger." Even without including "Hearbeat Song," both CMB and UTT were hits, no doubt about it.

I am surprised HBS sold really well. For some reason, I remembered it selling pretty miserably (like, "only" selling in the 500K range).

Technically: Heartbeat Song
Really though: Catch My Breath
I'm not including the X-mas song at all in this equation.

"Heartbeat Song" was definitely a hit, lol. It may not have performed as well as some of her previous singles have but it didn't totally bomb or anything.
Also, I'm not really understanding the logic of voting for "Stronger"? Even if you don't consider "Heartbeat Song" to be a hit, "Catch My Breath" can't be ignored. It performed better than "Heartbeat Song" and was definitely a hit.

"Heartbeat Song" was a top 40 hit, peaking at #21 and going on to sell over 1 million copies. Was it a smash hit? No. But that doesn't take away from the fact that it was a minor-moderate hit.
It was a moderate hit in the UK peaking at #7 and going silver (selling 200k+ copies). It did quite well in other European countries and South Africa too.

Heartbeat Song was a modest hit as was Catch My Breath before that. Those voting for "Stronger" are basing their vote on a "massive hit" rather than what the poll is asking for, a "recent hit".
