Crush is one of those songs I always think I don’t like but then I hear it and I’m singing along at the top of my voice all the way through.

I love Crush and I have to admit that sometimes I even listen to the Glee version until I remember why Rachel sang it.

Crush is just such a perfect pop song. it never gets old, it sounds fresh even if it's *checks date* 26 years old i hate it here D:

(fun fact: baby one more time came out just a couple of months later same year. 1998 was a good year for pop music)

Not sure New Radicals are technically one hit wonders as they had a few hit songs from their only album, such as Mother, we can’t get enough and Someday We’ll know.

girl none of those were hits

"Get What You Give" wasn't a real hit as it barely cracked the Top 40 on the Hot 100. Furthermore, I always thought this song sucked. It's very cheesy and I can't support those anti-Courtney Love lyrics.

Ladies and gentlemen

[warwarwar]

My name is mentioned and I hated it lmao

The 80s had a bunch of one hit wonders. "Hey Mickey" is still that song.

This altered my brain chemistry at 9.

Just reminds me of What a Girl Wants 🤣
