In the Zone is the fourth studio album from American singer Britney Spears, released on November 18, 2003.
Album information
In The Zone is the fourth studio album by Britney Spears. Her most sexual offering to date, In The Zone was also Britney's most musically diverse album, featuring producers such as R.Kelly, Bloodshy & Avant, and Moby and also, an increased artistic input by Spears herself compared to her other albums.
The album's first single was "Me Against the Music", a duet with Madonna. Though the song was a hit on the dance charts, it had only minor success on the Top 40. With the release of the second single "Toxic", Britney scored her first major hit in four years, hitting number 9 on the Billboard Top 100 and was certified platinum. Shortly after, "Everytime" was released as the album's third single. Fueled by a controversial video directed by David LaChapelle, the song became a Top 20 hit and was ultimately certified gold. Though a fourth single, "Outrageous", was released, a video was never finished, as Britney reportedly damaged her knee while shooting the clip. However, the song charted on the Billboard Hot 100 singles at number 79.
The album debuted at number 1 (with sales of over 609,000 copies) and has sold 3.1 million copies in the US according to Soundscan and is listed at 2x platinum according to the R.I.A.A.. When it debuted at number 1, Britney broke her own record again by becoming the first female artist in SoundScan history to have her first 4 studio albums debut at number one. (She previously set the record for her 2001 number one album Britney.). However, the album became her lowest selling studio album to date in the United States. Despite the fact it was her least commercial successful album of original material, In the Zone had more success with singles in the US than its predecessor; "Toxic" number 9, "Everytime" number 15 and "Me Against the Music" number 35. The album debuted at number 14 in the UK, but later re-entered the top 15 and peaked at number 13.
After the release of the album the critics ignored "Toxic" and focused their attention on "Breathe on Me" and "Touch of My Hand". Both songs have lyrics that are sexually suggestive.
It has many suggested titles before becoming In The Zone, such as Get In the Zone, but was changed at the last minute, due to Britney being sued by "Auto Zone" who's slogan is "Get In The Zone."
