base talk Forgotten hits by Beyonce, Gaga, JLo and Britney?

[Slap]

When artists end up with a big catalogue they also end up with songs that were big in the moment but have been overshadowed by their biggest hits since. What are the forgotten hits by Britney, Bey, JLo, and Gaga? Share them here so we can bop. 
 

Here are mine:

Gaga - You and I

Britney - Hold It Against Me

Beyonce - Check On It

 

 

[DevilsRollTheDice]

Sweet Dreams will never be forgotten by me 

 

Unfortunately The Edge of Glory. Geepee tasteless, what else is new. 

[PerfectCure]

Britney - (You Drive Me) Crazy

Gaga - Million Reasons (it was her signature ballad before DWAS and Shallow, now not so much)

J-Lo - I'm Into You

Beyoncé - If I Were A Boy

[Kyoto]

I don't agree about Alejandro, maybe because I'm from latin america

[poki]

Based on streams, it's You Drive Me Crazy for Britney. 54m streams for the remix. How does the album version have over 100m though?

[Devin]

Possibly the most interesting single release in her discography given it was a massive hit in Europe and a U.K. No.1 - whereas in the U.S. it was never even a single (in the pre-streaming age) and remained an album track, whilst the U.S. got this instead:

Womanizer feels a little forgotten but I still bop to it. Same with Just Dance.

[AlanRickman1946]

Beyonce-me myself and i

[Bloodflowers.]

Those 4 songs in the OP are all pretty much well remembered in Europe, especially Sweet Dreams (gets good radio airplay) and Alejandro 

 

These are the real underrated bops:

The love in this thread for Check On It makes me so happy.

That makes sense! It did get totally eclipsed by the first two singles from TFM but at the time it was my fave and still is. 

[l3disko]

Texas Hold Em'

[Escape]

Is "Papi" by JLO forgotten? If so then that.

The way this bop was turned into a rom com style Fiat ad kills me inside. Such a good song as well as I'm Into You, this was really Jenny's era.

 

Also:

 

900m views on Youtube for this plus she was wearing those iconic boots RiRi gifted her. 

 

And this song remains incredible, I might need to make a thread about it sometime.  
 

 

[bielneira]

Beyoncé: "Best Thing I Never Had"
Lady Gaga: "The Edge Of Glory"

Jennifer Lopez: "All I Have"
Britney Spears: "Slumber Party"

[Illuminati]

Don't think that Alejandro is forgotten, I mean there was a viral tweet about it just the other day. LoveGame kinda is though

[Cheers]

It's the one included on playlists

Circus is one of the least forgotten for her, the recurring stats are decent

.

 

Beyoncé: Deja vu

Britney: Overprotected

Gaga: The Edge of Glory

Jennifer: Waiting for Tonight (iconic but the streams suck so eligible )

You Drive Me Crazy is the most streamed third single from that era. It is actually a streaming smash with 175M Spotify streams and 219M YouTube views. 

 

The album version is the version that is promoted more and has playlisting. The remix isn't being promoted. It's probably because the remix's streams don't count for the parent album since it isn't on the tracklist.

Huh? Both of these are still huge. They aged so well!

Okay, you're just trying to hurt me  

[modeblock]

The fact these girls (not JLO) have so many stellar sings that a mega bop like Check on It or Crazy can even be forgotten in the first place makes it much easier to understand how they became the legends they are today. 

 

 

OT: 

 

Beyoncé: Greenlight

Gaga: Love Game

Britney: 3
