Two major classics that creatively sampled a very catchy instrumental to create a joint slay of a banger.

 

Which is better and more remembered?

Toxic is more remembered, but I actually like Hung Up better 

I don't really use Hung Up. I don't mind it, it's cute but Madonna has done much better in my opinion. Toxic is f fantastic. 

Hung Up >>>>> Toxic Ft Cathy Dennis

Toxic!

Toxic >>>>>> the ABBA remake

I definitely prefer Hung Up, but then again I've never really liked Toxic that much. Deciding between Hung Up and Gimme More would be much harder. Or between Sorry and Break The Ice.

Hung Up. 

 

Now if you asked Hung Up or Break the Ice I'd have a harder time choosing. 😀

The samples aren't really comparable. Hung Up just directly copy pasted an already iconic melody, whereas in Toxic they created something new out of it.

 

Toxic is both better and more remembered. 

This is a really hard choice. I prefer Hung Up, but both are absolute pop perfection.

Toxic I think. But this is indeed a hard one.

Both timeless pop perfection but Hung up is my choice

Hung Up

Toxic bodies the reductive Abba ripoff

Tell me you don't understand anything about music without telling me you don't understand anything about music.

You can listen to the above, and maybe learn a thing or two about all that's involved in the making of Hung Up, and how it takes ABBA's sample to a whole other level.

Both are good, but severely overrated tbh. The best part of these songs are the samples.

Both are perfect pop songs. Hung Up edges Toxic out for me, but I'm biased.

Both fire 

Hung Up all the way, Toxic is by far Britney's most overrated track..

Not sure why your pressed when Britney Spears has much better songs that can compete with Madonna's Hung Up? 

both 2 of the greatest pop songs ever recorded. i gotta give it to Toxic though, it just seems like there's no other pop hit before or after it that sounds anything like it. but it only beats Hung Up narrowly for me.
