The song is proving to be a global success, already climbing charts rapidly around the world. In the United States, it recently entered the Billboard Hot 100 and is gaining momentum weekly. The accompanying music video, featuring Spears in a now-iconic schoolgirl outfit, has been in heavy rotation on MTV since its release. "...Baby One More Time" showcases the 17-year-old former Mickey Mouse Club member's impressive vocal talents and star quality. A debut album of the same name is scheduled for release on January 12, 1999, and if this first single is any indication, Britney Spears is poised to become one of the biggest new stars of the year. The CD single also includes the B-side track "Autumn Goodbye," also worth checking out for fans eager to hear more from this promising new artist.
