Britney Spears is feeling grateful.
The singer's iconic pop album "Oops!... I Did It Again" was released on May 16, 2000, and now Spears is celebrating the 20-year anniversary.
On Saturday, exactly 20 years after the album's release, Spears, 38, took to Instagram to celebrate the milestone by sharing a video.
The clip spliced together footage of Spears' music video for "Oops," as well as clips of her speaking about the album. She explained it was more "adult" than her previous music, even saying the album's first single was better than "...Baby One More Time."
Also included in the video: short shots of Spears dancing and enjoying herself.
"Thank you to whoever made this ….. I just nearly dropped my phone I wasn’t expecting it !!!!!" Spears wrote in the video's caption. "20 years since the Oops! album."
The singer then reminisced on the "crazy" feelings of "anticipation" before the album's release.
