...Baby One More Time is a great song.

Things that were supposed to make the songs sound huge actually sound laughably small and not dramatic compared to things that came out even a couple years later. The difference between One More Time and Toxic is vast.

That's probably true.

But fuck BOMT is just so infectious!

But also, something lik Gangsta's Paradise sounds GREAT.

"Sometimes" is better though

I agree, and that's part of why I love "All That" by Carly Rae Jepsen. It took the verse melody of "Sometimes" and made it an after-hours slow-jam

The 2010’s were a better decade for rock/guitar music than the 1990’s.

Pearl Jam in the 90s alone is probably enough to prove that wrong.

I can get behind that.

I'd probably go with the 70s.
