‘Moodswings (To Come At Me Like That)’ was perhaps the best fit yet for Charlotte Church’s transition to mainstream pop star.
Britney Spears – Do Somethin’
It might have been included on a greatest hits album, but ‘Do Somethin’ was a decisive statement of what was to come from Britney Spears.
*NSYNC – Thinking Of You (I Drive Myself Crazy)
It was never released in the UK, but the tortuous ‘Thinking Of You (I Drive Myself Crazy)’ is up there as one *NSYNC’s very best efforts.

‘The Call’ found our ever-dependable Backstreet Boys entangled in an intense concoction of lust, betrayal and revenge.

‘Boy You Knock Me Out’ saw Tatyana Ali joined by her former ‘Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air’ co-star Will Smith for a killer second single.
Hepburn – Deep Deep Down
‘Deep Deep Down’ found Hepburn channeling their pop-rock prowess into a thoroughly bleak third (and final) single.
Ashlee Simpson – Boyfriend
Having been on the receiving end of so much negative press, ‘Boyfriend’ saw Ashlee Simpson re-claim her narrative and bite back.
Aaron Carter – Crazy Little Party Girl
‘Crazy Little Party Girl’ saw Aaron Carter move one step closer to world domination. After all, he was ten years old now.

‘Crush (1980 Me)’ was a departure from the sound that Darren Hayes was known for. But it gave us a glimpse at the artist he would become.
Adam Rickitt – Best Thing
‘Best Thing’ was Adam Rickitt’s last chance to prove his pop star credentials after the underwhelming performance of his debut album.
