Although the critical response to the album was lukewarm, ''...Baby One More Time'' was a huge commercial success. It debuted at number one in both the U.S. and [[Canada]], and reached the top ten in many other countries. The record has been certified 14× platinum in the United States.<ref>{{cite web | title=Top 100 Albums | work=[[Recording Industry Association of America]] | url=http://www.riaa.com/goldandplatinumdata.php?table=SEARCH | accessdate=2007-04-10}}</ref><ref>{{cite web | title=Britney's Debut Tips 14 Million Mark | work=[[Billboard magazine]] | url=http://www.billboard.com/bbcom/news/article_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=1000594201 | accessdate=2007-04-10}}</ref> It is the highest selling album by a teenager both in the US and worldwide. The album also spent fifty-one weeks in the top ten of the U.S. [[Billboard 200|''Billboard'' 200]] and sixty weeks in the top twenty. With this, it became the second best-selling album of 1999 in the United States, only behind [[Backstreet Boys]]'s ''[[Millennium (Backstreet Boys album)|Millennium]]''. It stayed on the ''Billboard'' 200 for two years until being moved to the [[Top Pop Catalog Albums|Pop Catalog chart]]. This album, its lyrics, and its music videos maintained the typical virgin image of the late 90's teen pop revival for Spears.

Untitled

"...Baby One More Time" is the debut album by American pop singer Britney Spears, released on January 12, 1999 in the United States. The album was produced by Denniz PoP, Max Martin and Rami. The title track is generally considered Spears' signature song. The album has sold over 14 million copies in the United States alone, and 30 million copies worldwide, becoming the biggest selling debut album in history.

Album history

The album was first released with five snippets of demo songs on January 2, 1998. It was officially released on January 12, 1999 in Canada and the United States, and on March 8, 1999 in the United Kingdom. The cassette had the same cover that was later included in "...Baby One More Time" single booklet, although some editions, like the Australian edition, have an alternate cover picture, a picture of Spears in white, with her hands in a praying gesture. The picture also resembles the cover artwork of Björk's album Debut. The album was then meant to be named just Britney Spears, but due to the debut single success, the title was changed to make the album more recognized in the public.

On early pressings of the album, there is a "hidden message" by Britney after the song "The Beat Goes On". In the message, Spears advertises her label mates The Backstreet Boys' album, and playing snippets of the singles from their album. The running time of "The Beat Goes On" with the special message at the end is 5:53.

Chart performance

Although the critical response to the album was lukewarm, "...Baby One More Time" was a huge commercial success. It debuted at number one in both the U.S. and Canada, and reached the top ten in many other countries. The record has been certified 14× platinum in the United States.[1][2] It is the highest selling album by a teenager both in the US and worldwide. The album also spent fifty-one weeks in the top ten of the U.S. Billboard 200 and sixty weeks in the top twenty. With this, it became the second best-selling album of 1999 in the United States, only behind Backstreet Boys's "Millennium". It stayed on the Billboard 200 for two years until being moved to the Pop Catalog chart. This album, its lyrics, and its music videos maintained the typical virgin image of the late 90's teen pop revival for Spears.

In France, the record debuted at number twenty-four, after thirty-eight weeks in the chart peaked at number-four,[3] it has sold over 545,000 copies[4] and has been certified 2× Platinum.[5] In the United Kingdom ...Baby One More Time debuted at number two, and after one year in the UK Albums Chart earned 3× Platinum certification.[6]
