The song shows the influence of hip-hop and the use of funk guitars. Critics thought it was a strong dance track. The song was waiting for commercial success. She reached the top of the charts in countries such as Australia , Denmark , Hungary , Ireland and Spain .
Duo Story
On the eve of the performance at the VMA'03 ceremony, together with Madonna, Britney rehearsed a dance in the next room to the already recorded title track from the upcoming album. At that moment Madonna passed by, who, having heard the recording, decided to go inside. She asked: "Is this your new single?" Britney shook her head in the affirmative. “Then I would like to participate in it!” Madge exclaimed. And so the first duet of Britney was born (in fact, on the first album, Britney has another track recorded in a duet with Don Philip), released as a single. Britney performed the solo version of Me Against the Music once during a performance at NFL Kickoff Live 2003. At the same time, it was her official return after personal problems in 2002.
Commercial Success
On October 25, 2003, the song “Me Against the Music” debuted at # 50 on the Billboard Hot 100 . It was the 10th Spears hit on the charts, as well as the first record in which she is a co-author. In Madonna’s career, “Me Against the Music” is the 50th single on the chart, 20 years after her first appearance on the Hot 100 with the song “ Holiday ”.
