Where's the puke icon! YESH, I did not like this at all, it was a terrible lead single which (I think) killed her blossoming career. They shamelessly tried to sell the commercial single of "The Itch" by putting her biggest hit "Graduation" on it.
"I'm feeling the itch again, don't wanna get tricked again!" lol
The song and video was used to promote a bad movie ("Get Over It" which sadly Shane West and Kirsten Dunst were a part of) which bombed faster than song itself.
Poor Vitamin C tried to show off her vocal skills in the follow-up "As Long As You're Loving Me" (which some ppl said reminded them of Donna Lewis). I remember seeing the video for "As Long As You're Loving Me" at Blockbuster (I believe the song was used in the movie "My Dog Skip").
Her remake of "I Know What Boys Like" was never released as a third single off "More" despite speculations.

I really liked this song alot. It was better than "Graduation" I think. I always thought that song was too sappy. It was definitely catchy.

Thanks for reminding me - Now I'm going to listen to it tonight! This was an excellent song as matter fact this song is now about 3 years old, I remember hearing it peak at number 27 around Thanksgiving weekend in 2000. I used to hear it at Bally Total Fitness constantly while lifting weights.

I didn't care for it. I even liked "As Long As You're Loving Me" more, although I didn't care for that song either.
Wasn't "I Know What Boys Like" played in some commercial? ???

I never heard this on my pop station! I first heard it on a plane, I really liked it! I'm surprised it didn't do as well as it could have on pop. Very good dance song!

I like her because she's one of those rare pop singers that aren't afraid to stretch their boundaries a little, and because redheads are cute. It's too bad she has to be best known for that graduation song, because once you're done being emotionally moved by the song (if at all), there's nothing else to it.

I also like her Eve's Plum roots- "i want it all", for instance.

Reminds me of the story that Casey did on how astronauts scratch themselves when they have an itch. ;)

Even "Graduation" can't top this.
Love this song...was one of the biggest-charting songs of my chart's Top 10 era (June 2000-mid-November 2001).

For some strange reason, I like this song. Complete cheese, but it's fun.

That's a really sexual song. I thought it was really nasty (in a good way).
It made me like Vitamin C.

this just popped up in my playlist. Nice song, I remember the video being pretty good also. Wonder, why it wasn't a bigger hit? Maybe Britney & Christina were hoggin' the airwaves...

I really wanted this to be a hit, this is when I really became a huge fan of hers. I loved her two albums, I can't believe she hasn't putting out anything since.
