Don’t Go Knockin’ On My Door follows and quite honestly ends up sounding like a rejected B-side from Spears’ debut album. Either way, the song is a favorite, and one of Spears’ biggest hits. Even Spears’ vocals are stronger here (okay, pun intended this time…heh), though it seems they did get a lot of treatment during production. I can admit to still being a fan of this song the edgier “rock” sound and anthemetic chorus (“But now I’m/Stronger than yesterday/Now it’s nothing but my way/My loneliness ain’t killing me no more/I’m stronger “) make for a perfect pop song. Next up is another Martin/Rami production, Stronger. Despite the strange subject matter, the song is extremely catchy and a perfect opener for the album.
This time around, Spears’ sings about being a heartbreaker without even the slightest hint of remorse (“Oops!…I did it again/I played with your heart, got lost in the game/Oh baby, baby/Oops!…You think I’m in love/That I’m sent from above/I’m not that innocent”), and I find it a bit odd that songwriters Max Martin and Rami thought it would be a good idea to write a song about breaking someone’s heart and not caring.
#When did oops i did it again come out update
The album begins with the title track, which comes off as being a flashy sort of update to …Baby One More Time. And though, again, nothing life-changing, thought provoking, or even brow rising can be found on Spears’ albums, they are all an example of teen pop at its finest. Sure, I’m no longer a fan of Spears’ breathy vocals, bouncy pop songs, and poorly written lyrics, but I have to admit that I find myself bobbing my head along and even dancing as I listened to some of these songs for the first time over four years. However, as I realized upon reviewing her debut album, most of the music on Spears’ albums aren’t so bad. It’s even harder for me to imagine that I was only thirteen then- right at the height of my Spears fandom- and that I actually begged my mom to buy it for me the first day the CD was released. It’s hard to imagine that it’s been almost exactly seven years since Britney Spears released her sophomore album, Oops!…I Did It Again (the CD was released on May 16th, 2000).
