Madonna sings on this with Britney. People were first able to listen to this song at a football event in the US, were Britney premiered it alone, without Madonna's vocals. The song was going to be like that (without Madonna), but after the 2003 MTV Video Music Awards, where Britney and Madonna kissed, Madonna was at the studio with Britney and agreed to add vocals on it.
This song was Britney's first single for her third album In The Zone, which debuted at #1 in the US. The video takes place at a club and was released in October 2003.
Several writers collaborated on this song, including the Atlanta songwriting team of C. Tricky Stewart and Penelope Magnet, who came up with the song after spending a night out with Spears in New York City. In an interview with MTV, Magnet said of the song: "It's extremely aggressive. It immediately makes you feel like something's happening. So the whole concept is kind of like she was battling the track. Like she was hearing the music and trying to out-dance the track or out-beat the drum or out-pluck the guitar. It's as if she's in the club, losing herself in the music."
