Who Wanted The Hit Song First?

AOL recently did a countdown of the Top 10 Hand Me Down songs. Here is the list of songs that were written by or given to a specific artists and they didn't want it so it was given to someone else who made it a hit:

10 "Disturbia"
(From Chris Brown to Rihanna)
Brown wrote this song for a rerelease of his 'Exclusive' album. Then Rihanna heard it, and when Brown agreed that it would work better as a female-oriented song, she took it -- to No. 1.

9. "Toxic"
(From Kylie Minogue to Britney Spears)
When offered first dibs, Minogue declined. She's probably still sore from kicking herself when 'Toxic' debuted in the U.K. at No. 1 the same week that she entered the chart four spots behind with the less memorable 'Red Blooded Woman.

8. "Miss Independent"
(From Destiny's Child to Christina Aguilera to Kelly Clarkson)
When Destiny's Child refused 'Miss Independent,' producer Rhett Lawrence brought it to Aguilera, who had a go at it but gave it up. It then fell into the lap of Clarkson, who turned it into a smash. Aguilera was naturally miffed about letting the song slip away, but she admitted that Clarkson nailed it.

7. "I Don't Want to Miss a Thing"
(From Celine Dion to Aerosmith)
What could Aerosmith possibly have in common with Dion, aside from big hair? The raucous rockers took this schmaltzy Diane Warren tune -- originally intended for the big-voiced pop balladeer -- and turned it into gold. Ten years after they hit big with 'Dude Looks Like a Lady,' they were singing like one themselves.

6. "Halo"
(From Leona Lewis to Beyonce)
Simon Cowell takes Lewis' career so seriously that the 'Idol' curmudgeon had this song composed expressly for his protegee. However, Lewis was too busy to record 'Halo,' so it wound up in the hands of Beyonce. Cowell was surely less than his usual jolly self when Beyonce hit big with it.

5. "Rock Your Body"
(From Michael Jackson to Justin Timberlake)
Superstar producers the Neptunes created this track for Michael Jackson's comeback album, 'Invincible,' but it didn't make the cut. Instead, Timberlake snared it and took it to the Top 5.

4. Since U Been Gone"
(From Pink to Hilary Duff to Kelly Clarkson)
Clarkson was America's first 'American Idol,' but she was third in line for this song. After Pink and Duff both gave it the thumbs down, Clarkson scooped it up and landed a No. 2 smash, proving she had staying power beyond reality TV.

3. "Gold Digger"
(From Shawnna to Kanye West)
West originally created 'Gold Digger' for hip-hop hopeful Shawnna's solo debut, but she rejected it. West reworked the lyrics for himself and then took 'Gold' platinum.

2. "Baby One More Time"
(From TLC to Britney Spears)
TLC were way too grown for teen pop when they were offered this song, opting for mature tracks like 'Waterfalls' instead. 'One More Time' became a career rocket-launcher for Spears, and it midwifed the rebirth of bubblegum.

1. "Umbrella"
(From Britney Spears to Rihanna)
Spears' streak ended when her label's execs stopped accepting songs for her album. The heavens opened instead for Rihanna, who made 'Umbrella' the biggest single in the world. It's one of three trash-picked tracks she has taken to No. 1, along with 'S.O.S' (passed on by Christina Milian) and 'Disturbia.

Who Does Miley Want To Work With?

Miley Cyrus has a list of the top 7 people she'd like to work and they are:

7. Elvis
6. Johnny Cash
5. John Lennon
4. Shia LaBeouf
3. Meryl Streep
2. Jennifer Aniston
1. Hilary Duff

Hilary Duff Working On Edgier Album

Hilary Duff was just 2 years old when Depeche Mode's "Personal Jesus" was released, but that didn't stop her from building a new song of her own — "Reach Out" — around it. The song is featured on her greatest-hits LP, Best of Hilary Duff, which hit stores last week.

" 'Reach Out' is a sample of a Depeche Mode song, 'Personal Jesus,' " she told MTV News at the "Total Finale Live" on Sunday (November 16). "It's different for me. It's a little dancey, and there's a rapper named Prophet who's on it who's really cool and kinda fresh."

In addition to "Reach Out," Duff has another new song on the album, called "Holiday," which found her working with OneRepublic's Ryan Tedder. She describes the song as "a really personal [one]."

Duff isn't just giving her fans her greatest hits — soon the singer/actress will be back in the studio recording new material. "I'm going to start working on a new album in two weeks," she said.

These days, even with a NBC development deal in the works that will bring the singer back to the small screen, she's spending her days "hard-core writing and figuring out what direction to go in."

And the former Disney star said she's looking to go edgier than the music she's done in the past. But she can't help but embrace her feminine side.

"I like so many different kinds of music," she said. "Something poppy and catchy — I'm girly but I think I'm kind of tough, so maybe a little rock influence."

Adds Duff, "I'm always wearing scarves to deaccentuate my shoulders."

Swift tells Us her skirts and jeans "have to be either low- or high-waisted. It can't be in the middle; I'm so tall [5-foot-11] it would make me look weird."
