Lucy Liu With my girl, Drew Cameron D and Destiny Charlie's Angels, come on"Independent Women, Part I" is the feminist anthem par excellence when it comes to DC's discography. It was originally intended for the soundtrack to the 2000 adaptation of Charlie's Angels starring Cameron Diaz, Drew Barrymore and Lucy Liu. Produced by Poke & Tone, it was the first single from the group to feature the vocals of Farrah Franklin and Michelle Williams, the two newest members at the time after the departure of LeToya and LaTavia. It became a smash hit, spending 11 weeks at #1 on the Hot 100 and reaching the top 3 in many markets worldwide. 4.

I'm a little surprised Bills has done this well, less so about Jumpin Jumpin - some people really dislike that one, though I don't understand why.
Independent Women being out at #4 is truly shocking. That song is their biggest hit - it was #1 for 14 weeks and still getting airplay while Emotions was trying to take off.

My top 3 is top 3! Let's gooooo!
I don't think the final reveal will match the order I put the three songs in though (I think my 1 and 2 will be swapped), so I will count this in my head as a collective perfect ranking lol.

I've always felt like Shek'spere put his better beats on FanMail whereas BBB sounds like a leftover to me.

Late af catching up on the results for this because I had a long weekend where I was on vacay but I ranked the remix at 18 and the OG at 13, idk if that changes anything but just throwing that out there that my ranking was incorrect here!

Yes, .indulgecountry you're right the ranking was #13. But it wouldn't change the song's position as it would go up to 427 points and "Survivor" at #6 has 428.

You triflin', good for nothing type of brother Silly me, why haven't I found another? A baller, when times get hard, I need someone to help me out Instead of a scrub like you, who don't know what a man's aboutDestiny's Child first #1 hit was a scathing diss to broke men who don't take care of business in the household. Co-written by K*ndi and produced by She'kspere, it quickly reached #1 on both the Hot 100 and the R&B chart, propelled by its catchy chorus, the popular early 2000s sound and by a clorful fun video. The song received two Grammy nominations for Best R&B Song and Best R&B Performance by a Group or Duo with Vocals. 3.

I'm startin' to believe that I'm way too much for you All that talk but it seems like it can't come throughThe iconic marching band drums of "Lose My Breath" created by Darkchild announced in late 2004 that Destiny's Child was ready to slay once again with their 4th album. Released as the lead single, the song was an immediate smash, amking the top 3 on the Hot 100 in a few weeks. The music video depicts a dance-off between two sides of the group: the preppy fashionistas and the street one. The critical success led to a Grammy nomination for Best R&B Vocal Performance by a Duo or Group. 2. Lose My Breath Points: 516 Average: 4,963 Standard deviation: 3,717@antigonerising : 1 Sir Benji : 1 SHOOTER : 1 tim : 1 jtd Thee Stallion : 1 #LisaRinna : 2Ty : 2Az Paynter : 2Ky : 2stallie : 2.indulgecountry : 3 back2blk : 3 Soulsista : 4 Jay D83 : 4 Breathless:Hurricane Lee : 6 Leaf : 6 Wave. : 7 Kanenrá:ke : 7 alexcuse : 7 Troublemaker : 7 George : 8 castleoblivion26 : 8 newpower : 9 🇯🇲 lucy88 🇯🇲 : 9 Exclusive : 10 B-Boy : 17 It's hard to believe that you Are at home, by yourself When I just heard the voice Heard the voice of someone elseIf "Bills" was the group's first real hit, it was with "Say My Name" that the girls really hit HOME. Produced by Darkchild, it's a captivating song, from the tension of the verses to the explosion of the chorus to every flourish in the production. One of the most recognisable tracks of the early 2000s and one that has endured bypassing wth ease the notion of "too dated." It won two Grammys for Best R&B Song and Best R&B Vocal Performance by a Group or Duo, while also being nominated for Record of the Year and Song of the Year. A smash that couldn't have been anywhere but on top of this rankdown! 1.

I’ve enjoyed the countdown.
“Bills Bills Bills” and “Say My Name” are my favorites vocally. The songwriter-producer teams knew how to work all four members on those songs.
