Bruh I'm looking over at my shelf of CD's from the time.

But let's look at the best selling albums that came out in 1999, the year referenced in the meme.

  1. Backstreet Boys - Millennium - 12 tracks
  2. Britney Spears - Baby One More Time - 11 tracks (or more, depending on the version)
  3. Santana - Supernatural - 13 tracks
  4. Celine Dion - All the Way... A Decade of Song - 16 tracks (kind of weird as it's a compilation)
  5. Ricky Martin - Ricky Martin - 14 Tracks
  6. Blink-182 - Enema of the State - 12 tracks
  7. RHCP - Calofornication - 15 tracks
  8. Christina Aguilera - Christina Aguilera - 12 tracks (I think? I'm only finding re-releases that include more bonus tracks now)
  9. Creed - Human Clay - 11 tracks
  10. Dido - No Angel - 12 tracks

Maybe back in the day you mistakenly bought singles instead of albums?

Hey that was the soundtrack to high school. I downloaded half of them on dialup, via Napster/Gnutella/whatever.

#7 is one of the only ones you'll hear to this day.
