Riding the success of her debut, Christina Aguilera scored another #1 hit with this upbeat track in late 1999. “What a Girl Wants” blends teen-pop sparkle with Aguilera’s powerful vocal runs, as she expresses appreciation for a lover who gives her exactly what she needs. The song’s infectious chorus and positive message of mutual love resonated with young fans and helped cement Christina’s status among the era’s leading pop divas. Fun fact: It became the first #1 of the new millennium on the Billboard Hot 100 in January 2000. With its feel-good vibe and showcase of Christina’s impressive range, “What a Girl Wants” remains a delightful burst of pop that brings back the TRL-era excitement every time it plays.
