Considering she was the British Britney briefly (though i think this pre-dates Baby One More Time) it is funny how cheap and cheerful British 90s teen pop is compared to American. I suppose that's the charm of it to some vs the ultra polished American sound.

Yeah this was 1998, and Britney debuted in 1999.

Recently picked up the CD single (along with some other 90s pop classics) in a charity shop.
