“The whole song is about that stress that we all go through as teens,” Britney told The Guardian. “I knew it was a great song. It was different and I loved it, [but] I don’t think you can anticipate how a song is going to be received.”

Britney released the song back in October 1998 which reached number 1 on the music charts in the United States as well as in 10 other countries. The song was featured on Britney‘s debut album of the same name which she released in January 1999.

“Wow, that went quick. It was such a fun and crazy time,” Britney continued. “It was a bit of a blur.”
