I'm sorry, this is TOOOOO ****ing HILARIOUS. Should've picked "Blur" or "Unusual You". I'm almost sure UY would be a smash on multiple formats. Throw Neyo on it or something.
Regardless, this is just for stations who won't play the "Explicit" version And I already have that version with the album and will buy it on iTunes when it's officially released.
This will only make people who hear it like this more curious, plus the DJs will probably always mention the edit after or before the song. <33
I'm still not fond of this track being the third single. I know what you're thinking: "Jordan, you're a sexy bitch." Followed by "F U, Jordan!" But come on, this track is only making headlines because she says "**** me." It's another clear-cut example of her management's carefully calculated controversy in the Britney comeback train (mmm alliteration). Instead of releasing a single with depth, they take the easy route.
"Unusual You" was the perfect third single; an uptempo winter ballad that shows a vulnerable side to Britney, something we have yet to see her team portray. She sings about being in love, but expects a broken heart - leaving Britney confused as she finds out her love interest, for once, has pure intentions. Unfortunately, we're left with Amy - a cocky, sex-craved clubber looking for her next ****.
But "F U C K Me" is such a radio-able song. It's obviously an instant smash. "Unusual You" would flop, at least in the US, unless radio's propensity to ignore Euro-inspired songs changes overnight.
