Over the last year there have 4th singles that ended up being one of the biggest hits released off of the album, which one is your favorite?
My order--
1. Black Eyed Peas "Let's Get It Started"-I think this is better than anyone of the singles they released. "Where Is The Love" was overrated, "Shut Up" was just a bad choice, and "Hey Mama" while it was good, never really took off that well. LGIS is great!
2. Beyonce "Naughty Girl"-Not as good as "Baby Boy" or "Crazy" but a lot better than that boring 3rd single.
3. Usher "My Boo"-This is the best song he has released off of this album behind "Yeah!", i'm glad it will be doing better than the overated "Burn" and "Confessions, Part Two".
4. Christina Aguilera f/ Lil Kim "Can't Hold Us Down"-by far the worst single released off of 'Stripped', i don't understand how it became the second biggest behind "Beautiful", out of the 5 singles released. It's still good though, just think "Dirrty" deserved to go top 3 more than this
Note--however if i was to make a list that dealt will all the singles, it would be...
1. Beyonce
2. Christina
3. Usher
4. Black Eyed Peas

1. "Let's Get It Started" -- One of two entries here I really like. "Shut Up" was my favorite of the singles.
2. "My Boo" -- it's a pretty good song. I'm actually a bit interested in the album. Regardless of what anyone says, "Yeah!" is one of my favorite songs of the year.
3. "Naughty Girl" -- I don't like this one at all, but I agree about it being better than "Me, Myself, and I", which had only one redeeming quality, and that was the video. I think this one's pretty bad.
4. "Can't Hold Us Down" -- Ehhh, this was probably my least favorite of the Stripped singles, although the screeching on "Fighter" annoyed me as well. I don't really mind the other singles, although "Beautiful" was kind of cheesy and pseudo-inspirational and "The Voice Within" was the epitome of bland.

Regardless of what anyone says, "Yeah!" is one of my favorite songs of the year.I agree with everything here, especially the bolded parts. For me it was also between these 2 songs, except I gave the edge to "My Boo." |

I'm not voting because I haven't heard "My Boo", but "Let's Get It Started" is the only one of the other three that doesn't get an F.

"Naughty Girl" was overall the least succesful of Beyoncé's, singles; you may not have like MM&I but it did well and was a better performance from her.
BEP's music sounds like Jock Jams :-\
Christina's 4th single sucked, I don't know how it got up to #12. It didn't have much longevity if I remember correctly.
"My Boo" is going to be bigger than "Confessions" and maybe bigger than "Burn", and it has Alicia keys... it definitely wins. Except it wasn't on the original album, it's more like the first single off the re-release... actually that's what it is. It's not a 4th single.
In that case it's a 3-way loss btwn the others.

I voted Christina. BEP's single is the second best behind 'Hey Mama', Christina's is the best of the bunch but third best behind 'Dirrty' and 'Beautiful' and almost tied with 'The Voice Within'. Not an Usher fan and 'Yeah!' is 10X better than 'My Boo' and Beyoncé's song is second best behind 'Crazy In Love'.

lol sounds like u didnt like any of the singles. Well, none of those really made me want to change the radio station right away. Some of her videos redeemed the negative reaction to those songs. Also, when I criticize, I usually say what can be better, and I hear it's easier to do that than to praise. I didn't like it at the time but "Dirrty" is actually my favorite of the singles, even if it wasn't as successful as the other singles. I prefer the singles from her first album, though. |

Yeah, I've heard a black dude try to sing "My Boo" but I've never heard the Usher's version. I'm still inclined to vote for it though because "Let's Get It Started" and "Naughty Girl" are both D's and "Can't Hold Me Down", for being the most offensively pretentious song I've ever heard, is an F. |

All of these are the best or second best they've done.
Beyonce wins:
Naughty Girl A+
Me, Myself & I B+
Baby Boy B
Crazy In Love B
BEP is 2nd:
Let's Get It Started A
Hey Mama B
Where Is The Love? B-
Shut Up C
For the songs mentioned, Christina is probably 3rd:
The Voice Within A-
CHUD B
Beautiful C+
Fighter C
Dirrty D
Usher, whom I'd generally consider my favorite of these artists, seems to end up last:
Yeah A-
My Boo B- (Not sure; have heard it only once or twice)
Burn C
Confessions II C-
