Britney Spears – … Baby One More Time
Listen now
Description
Is a desperate plea to keep a lover from slipping away? Or is it the cry of a woman who needs some domestic violence to make herself feel alive? Whatever the case may be, it’s a catchy little diddy from 1999 that sparked the career of a pop star who burned too brightly in the early 2000s. It’s Britney Spears and the song is “… Baby One More Time“. Oh baby, baby… Our coverage of 1999 continues as we dive into the pop star renaissance that brought us acts like Britney Spears, the Backstreet Boys, Christina Aguilera, and many others. How manufactured was it? What happened to alternative rock? What was the deal with sexualizing high schoolers? Wes and Clay discuss this and much more in this episode of the show.
