The original album version of What a Girl Wants is considerably slower than the hit mix of the song. Young Christina Aguilera insisted that a more upbeat mix be created to be released as the second official single from her self-titled debut album. Her instincts were correct. What a Girl Wants became her second consecutive #1 pop hit. The song was described as a pop and R&B track and had similarities to Genie in a Bottle. The song received positive reviews from music critics, who described it as a light song and compared Aguilera vocals on the track to those of Mariah Carey. Commercially, the song became her second consecutive US Billboard Hot 100 number-one single, and topped the charts in New Zealand and Spain. The single eventually earned gold certifications in countries including Australia, Belgium, Sweden and the US.
