7 Throwbacks Worth Your Time

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Case chapter.

With constant songs by One Direction and Selena Gomez, sometimes you need a reminder of the way things used to be: 

7.  Bye Bye Bye by ‘N Sync

Whether you were Team ‘N Sync or Team Backstreet Boys, there’s no denying this was an amazing song.

 

6. I Want It That Way by the Backstreet Boys

But if you were on Team Backstreet Boys, this was definitely your song for a period of time.

 

5. Wannabe by The Spice Girls

There was once a female British Invasion of America (kind of not really) and they were known as The Spice Girls…and Victoria Beckham.

 

4. Beautiful by Christina Aguilera

If you’re in the mood for a slow song or need to be reminded that you’re beautiful in every single way, press play.

 

3. The Real Slim Shady by Eminem

I may not be a fan of rap, and I may not really know what he’s saying half the time, but even I can’t deny that I’ll always wonder who the real Slim Shady is.

 

2. I’m A Slave 4 U by Britney Spears

Okay, so technically this is more about the performance than the actual song…this 2004 MTV VMA performance will forever have a place in my memory and heart. All hail the Queen of Pop. And tamer of snakes.
