Oh baby,baby…

Yes believe it or not it has been 20 years since Ms Spears released Hit Me Baby One More Time and it’s hard to remember what it was like before the princess of pop burst onto the scene.

In the last two decades she has released nine albums and is one of the many superstars to have a Las Vegas residency.

Many people across the globe have been celebrating the star’s most iconic tune and Ireland is no exception. Casual Choir run by Roisin Savage showed some true Britney Spears appreciation with their rendition of the classic pop song and wait till you hear it.

Bet you never thought you’d hear a four part harmony version of Hit Me Baby did you?

Casual Choir meet every two weeks to rehearse and record a popular rock or pop song with previous songs including Respect by Erasure and Don’t Look Back in Anger by Oasis.

This session though was dedicated to the popular blonde songstress, the only thing missing are the infamous mini skirt uniforms and pigtails.

For a song that was only rehearsed for an hour I think it’s fair to say that even Ms Spears herself would be proud.
