Anyone who has gone through a similar situation will also be able to identify with and relate to the song’s lyrics. Even today, the song can still be resonated with Britney due to the struggles she has faced along the way and some of her more recent personal issues. One of the biggest points that makes the song one of Britney’s best singles is the lyrical content, where she sings about wanting more freedom in her life.

The song was also used in Britney’s motion picture movie, “Crossroads” (2002).

Taken from Britney’s self-titled third studio album, “Britney” (2001), this song was released as the album’s second single in most countries, although it was the third in the US – albeit a remixed version, but we are discussing the superior original version here. Just missing out on the top spot is “Overprotected”. It is one of the more heartbreaking offerings in her discography, as well as one of the most personal songs she has ever released as a single. A soft piano melody backed by strong, breathy vocals from Britney – the song seems a lot more simple compared to some of the other tracks from “In the Zone”, but the organic nature of its production helps to establish the raw vulnerability behind Britney’s vocal performance. We think the song is hauntingly beautiful. It is highly rumoured to be about Britney’s breakup from Justin Timberlake, although this has never been confirmed. Lyrically, “Everytime” is a plea for forgiveness for hurting a past lover. Britney herself helped to co-write the song, alongside Annet Artani, and also composed and came up with the song’s melody on piano. The third single to be released from Britney’s fourth studio album, “In the Zone” (2003), we consider this song to be up there as one of her best ballads.
