Aurafire, I'm actually glad you said what you said because in the majority of the case, people just dislike her because of various other reasons and actually do listen to her songs without saying that to anybody due to being embarrassed by liking her music. Though you stated you only like a hand few of them, at least you admit to that. One of my friends caught me listening to it and was surprised that I would like songs from her and gave me this weird look that I probably took wrongly. I asked what was wrong with liking her and they didn't respond. So clearly someone I know very well... or supposedly, has some hate towards her.

While I'm not exactly pleased with the whole attention-grabbing debacle she had with her kids, I'll admit that her music is catchy. I've been known to listen to dance/pop/R&B occasionally. It's not my favorite music, but it's not bad. I think the reason people feel like they can't like Britney Spears is that they're afraid that they'll be selling out their own style of music by liking her. If you like something, why should you be ashamed of it? People tend to be very hypocritical about their music choices. =/

It's good to know you understand what I'm talking about when I say metaphoric sense instead of literal as well since that's usually the way I read lyrics of hers and many others. And yes, I do agree with the fact of the majority of the songs having that robotic sound to it. That's something I didn't like at first because it just sounded really croaky, but I've grown to like it since it's a completely different sound from that majority of her albums she puts out due to that.

Oh at first, I thought you meant there was a "deep" meaning in the blackout songs, which was a bit confusing for me =]

Btw, people, especially guys, don't like Britney because the majority of her male fans are gays..

Thats me! Wait, does that make me typical in this aspect? Actually the first song I liked of hers was Toxic and never again until Gimme More! lol.

Amnesia has been on repeat in my head, on my iPod, and in my car for the past like 3 days. I can't get enough of it. If I can find an import version of the Japanese Deluxe Edition I might buy it.

Yep, it's the type of song you love from the first time you hear it and you just can't get out of your head.

Actually it's :
Better make sure that the line is clean; phonography, phonography, dirty talking, call it phonograhy[/britney nerd]

But I have "Kill the Lights" stuck in my head; It's like a darker, sassier version of "Piece of Me". :D

Thomas December 21st, 2008 2:47 PM

Actually you are both wrong...
...you missed a lyric.

Better make sure that the line is clean
Keep it confidential, you and me
Phonography, phonography
Dirty talk and call it phonography


But yeah, Phonography is another one of those songs that you just like immediately.

Lol, I wasnt actually trying to get it right but thanks. I knew those lyrics.

Star★Seeker December 21st, 2008 10:05 PM

Um...hi! I just have to say, Circus is a very bad arse song, I love. I'm gonna bribe my mother into getting it for me on Christmas. Hope that works.

Snivi December 21st, 2008 10:24 PM

I've been a fan since Baby One More Time and I still love her and always will!

I even saw the Oops tour. She was the last concert I have been too. XD *drove out of state with sister and cousin to see her* But our seats sucked.

It's a bonus track.. that's what I meant.

Just be glad that it is even available on an album in America, stupid only the British and the Japanese get to enjoy Amnesia on the actual album.

Also, if anyone hasn't listened to Trouble (the iTunes pre-order bonus track) then you really need to. It is really really good.

Edit: And I heard an awesome Christmas song by her today on the radio called My Only Wish.

My Only Wish (This Year). I really wish she'd perform this song this Christmas.. though I don't really think she'd be up for it.

So in reply to the actual topic and not the more recent posts ('cause I'm slow): I don't like her music so much, but she's not a horrible artist.

I definitely wouldn't say she's "the most discussed artist in this point in time", but she's definitely not far from it. Forming an opinion about her on a personal level wouldn't be right, as more than half of the rumors I've heard about her are presumably untrue. However, I must admit that it takes some guts and willpower to be able to do what she's done, and since I can only judge a person by their actions, "Bravo, Brittany Spears".

While I don't like her genre of music, I do believe she is one of, if not the best at it. Some songs are rather catchy, while others I wouldn't be caught dead listening to. As for her being the "Pop Queen", I really don't have an opinion on that right now. I don't listen to very much pop, so I couldn't compare. She is a very talented individual, though, and I think the media needs to stop focusing on all the bad and start focusing on all the good.

.inLOVE December 23rd, 2008 8:25 AM

As most people know, I love Britney. She is talented, and though she has had her moments, she isn't that bad.

xoBoxxy December 24th, 2008 1:34 PM

I like Britney. Shes a regular person with mistakes, she just gets publicized her for it. Now I know someone is going to say "Oh yeah, a regular person shaves their head all the time, of course". I admit, she shouldn't have done that, but that was like what? A year ago and your still complaining about it? She really improved herself this year, and shes getting, and looking healthier.

kissing. raindrops December 24th, 2008 2:33 PM

I love Britney Spears! Her songs are awesome<3
Especially her new songs now; like Circus, Mannequin and Get Back, I've been listening to them a lot.
I also like Piece of Me, Break the Ice, etc.

Get Back was one of the BEST songs on Blackout. IMO I was pissed that it was only an iTunes Deluxe track though.

Also finally someone who likes Mannequin. I can't seem to find anyone else who likes that song. It's probably my favorite right now on Circus, I've gotten over Amnesia just a bit, and have been listening to Mannequin more and more. Really good.

Haza December 24th, 2008 3:33 PM

I love the song mannequin. Its different but I dont think it makes sense.

Get Naked (I Got a Plan) is one too. >;
I wish it was a single.... ;;

Mannequin is ok, I guess...I wish its tempo was more fast though.

OMG. I love that song too. It is my fave from blackout.

Thomas December 25th, 2008 10:50 AM

I just went back and listened to Get Naked (I Got A Plan) again. Yeah that song was really good, but definitely not even in my top 5 for the album.

For blackout:

5) Everybody
4) Piece of Me
4) Gimme More
3) Freakshow
2) Get Back
1) Ooh Ooh Baby

love it. lol
