Yet I didn't hear the song or any other from that album on the radio. It didn't get a single week at #1 during its 14 weeks in the US (we instead got Carrie Underwood's Inside your heaven for 8 weeks and Don't Cha by the *****cat Dolls for another 8 weeks

)

I find that strange too. maybe it wasn't released in CAN for some reason?

I remember all of them being huge hits and I'm seriously surprised at some answers, especially Toxic by Britney Spears, Wherever, Wherever by Shakira, We Belong Together by Mariah Carey and Umbrella by Rihanna.

Those four songs were massive! How did you miss it?!

The entire Emancipation era was HUGE worldwide, even in Portugal, a country that doesn't pay attention to Mariah since her early days!

Hm, that's odd because I distinctly remember WBT and SIO being played continually on radio in Toronto. It was hard to escape either.

On The Floor

Terrible song, tbh.

...Baby One More Time

I was a kid back then and I thought it was a flop for atleast 3 months until every gals and boys in our classroom we're saying that's Britney when someone played that song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
