September 26, 2008 1:51 PM ET

Britney Spears' "Womanizer," the first single from her upcoming Circus, finally hit radio stations this morning before getting uploaded onto YouTube, as evidenced by the video above. The song, with its dark synths and propulsive backbeat, was produced by Atlanta crew the Outsyders. Spears reportedly shot a video for "Womanizer" yesterday at a Los Angeles sushi restaurant, with Brit playing the role of a "vampy waitress." In the meantime, "Womanizer" will make its television debut this Monday on a new episode of MTV's The Hills. For more info on Spears' Circus, the album she calls her "best work ever," check our fall music preview.

“Oh Sherrie”

Steve Perry | 1984

Steve Perry's girlfriend Sherrie Swafford was actually in the studio when Perry began writing this song--his lone Top Ten hit as a solo act--with two co-writers. The trio began at midnight one night with just "Oh, Sherrie!" and "hold on, hold on." Three hours later, they had a complete song. Swafford, however, had to wait until the next day to hear it. "Sherrie actually got tired and went to bed," Perry said. She also appeared in the video, but their relationship did not hold on for long.
