"Britney" > "Overprotected"

21st January 2002

Following the reaction to "I'm A Slave 4 U," which risked alienating Britney's fanbase, tracks from "Crossroads" were picked as the follow-up releases, with "Overproteced," hitting the UK and Australia first, followed by "I'm Not A Girl, Not Yet A Woman," with the singles switching internationally. For the USA release, the track was remixed by Rodney Jerkins (Darkchild), reaching #87, despite a boycott from Clear Channel radio over her tour promoter.
