So, happy birthday to '.Baby', a true classic and simply one of the greatest recordings of all-time.Д 1.(RE) Britney Spears. For me, this is the ultimate debut single and one of the caricatures of great Pop music. Most artists come out with safe debut choices but Britney came right out of the gate as the seductive vixen that she remained throughout her career. The catholic schoolgirl outfit is one of Britney's most iconic looks ever and though the 90's is revered as the decade where the Vocal Trinity ruled (and in my opinion, I'd also contend that that was the decade where the Vocal Trinity released most of their best music), '.Baby One More Time' is undeniably my favourite 90's classic. The original video was supposed to incorporate aliens but Britney knew that that idea was ludicrous and opted for something simpler.and sexier. The Pop Princess herself has regarded the song as one of her ultimate fave tunes of her career.ДЄ lot of people don't know this but Britney herself was the creative force behind the concept of the music video. With more than nine million units sold worldwide and after having topped every single chart on which it entered, '.Baby One More Time' is easily Britney's most successful single and remains one of her most identifiable and enduring classics. The song itself is credited with redefining the sound of late 90's music and the video is regarded as one of the most influential music videos of all-time.

Today, September 30th, 2012, marks the fourteenth anniversary of the release of Britney's debut single, '.Baby One More Time'.
