Oops!... I Did It Again is the second studio album from American pop music singer Britney Spears, released on May 16, 2000 on Jive Records.

Album information

The album's predecessor, ...Baby One More Time, set high commercial standards, especially for a second album (which tend to be disappointing), but Oops! sold extremely well in North America, less so outside of the United States and Canada, though Spears has maintained a large Latin American fanbase.

The album's mixture of ballads and Eurodance beats was panned by many critics and purists, who dismissed Spears as a teen idol with little or no musical talent. Most reviewers, however, saw Spears as a pop star who never claimed to be anything but, and who succeeded at making pop music. For example, Rolling Stone magazine gave the album 3.5 stars out of 5, saying "Britney's demand for satisfaction is complex, fierce and downright scary, making her a true child of rock & roll tradition" [1], and also refers to her "song-factory" and "fantastic pop cheese", while NMEreported (with a score of 8 out of 10) that "She's modern-day pop perfection realised in a nearly, human form" [2], though it also refers to her as an "evil genius" and rather cynically compares her music to the addictive drug ketamine based on the drug's tendency to blank the user's mind and thought processes.

Oops! topped the US Billboard 200, selling over 1.3 million units in its first week (the most copies sold in a single week by a female artist in history). The album remained 17 weeks in the top 3 in the Billboard 200. The record also topped the Canadian and Internet album charts, and reached a peak of #2 in the UK. Singles off the album include the title track "Oops!... I Did It Again", "Lucky", "Stronger", and "Don't Let Me Be the Last to Know." The album was also nominated for a Grammy award for Best Pop Vocal Album, while the title track was nominated for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance. The album also reached number one on the Indonesian albums chart, and has been certified 5x Platinum there. She also won numerous awards for the album and singles there.

If someone reversed the part in Oops! I did it again! where Britney said "Innocent!" Someone might be able to hear her say "Im a slut". References
