That generic unfinished sounding mess? Goodbye.
"Circus" is much underrated. The standard edition is a mess though: six strong standouts and six bad-to-mediocre tracks. Womanizer, Circus, Kill The Lights, If U Seek Amy, Unusual You, Mannequin >>>>>>
Some of her finest work yet. The bonus tracks **** on discographies. Rock Me In, Phonography, Amnesia, Trouble >>>>

And how dare you disrespect "Amnesia." One of her all-time best.

Tracks 6-8 and "Selfish" are fillers. “I Wanna Go” is a sweetly generic repetitive mess. I can’t even listen to it anymore. And the dead-in-the-eyes close-ups in the video, ugh.

A stripper anthem waiting to happen. It's certainly much better than "I Wanna Go."

Seal It With A Kiss is the only song off of Femme Fatale that I would want off of the album and replaced with a bonus track like Up N Down or He About To Lose Me. But the dubstep breakdown is pretty good so I often just end up over looking it.

8. Big Fat Bass Don't Keep Me Waiting

What?!?
Don't keep me waiting didn't even deserve to get recorded.

“Seal It With A Kiss” has brilliant production; if only the lyrics weren’t so generic, predictable, and forgettable. Considering how Godawful "Selfish," Big Fat Bass" and "(Drop Dead) Beautiful" are, it's easily the album's best filler.

I can't listen to I Wanna Go anymore either, nor can I watch the video. I'm so over the song.

No, Big Fat Bass and Drop Dead Beautiful are easily better then SIWAK and both are single worthy.

New interview with a brazilian newspaper (O Globo)
For many people, the search engines on the internet weere the greatest invention in the last ten years. And what is the most searched celebrity name of all time? Yes, Britney Spears. She is a dancer, singer and the biggest pop icon of this period. She sold 100 millions records in times (thanks to the internet) people don't buy albums anymore. Next week, the 29-year-old american will be among us. No more virtual, but phisically. Britney will perform her Femme Fatale Tour in Rio and Sao Paulo. We talked with her and she told us what her fans can expect.
Great energy, dance numbers and old and new fun songs to sing and dance along.
"Femme Fatale" is an operation that involves a stage with three levels equiped with decks, internal access ladders and six lifts. Britney brings a team of 44 people, including dancers, musicians, business and managers. And a crew with more 43 members. In Brazil, more 100 people are working in local production.
"Femme Fatale", the show, debuted in June in USA and tells the story of a secret agent (herself) trying to escape a pursuer. In the song "Up n Down" Britney appears in a cage with her dancers. The little scandals are essentials for the star artistic purposes.
"- I see a femme fatale as a strong and confident woman, who get what she wants" - she says confirming that she sees a lot of femme fatale in herself.
You keep good memories from the last time you were in Brazil, ten years ago for the RIR. What can you say about Rio?
"I love when Blu (the parriot from the movie "Rio") tries to fly. Just kidding. My children love this movie I watched it nonstop. But I remember all the people, they are beautiful and kind. For some reason, bright colours come in my mind when I think about Rio.
Since the Rock in Rio, a lot happened. And many girls came to take her place. Christina Aguilera, Pink, Avril Lavigne, Lady Gaga... but she resisted the scene, and is about to be 30.
"- Actually, I'm excited with the birthday. I feel luck and happy with everything I've achieved personally and professionaly so far. Going forward I plan to relax more and spend more time with my children."
And what has changed for Britney Spears since 2001?
"- Apart from the fact that I am ten years older and have two beautiful boys, litthe has changed. I still love to sing and perform."
The love for the pop, she ensures, remains the same as when she was a teenager.
"- Of course. My first love will always be pop music. I'm a dancer! But now that I'm older, I can appreciate other sounds too, like jazz and blues"
And what music this mature Britney Spears listens today?
"- I'm not focused on one artist or band right now. I like to listen to the radio hits of all time. And now, travelling the world, I've seen a lot of MTV. I like to watch videos from artists like Pixie Lott."
Any brazilian music?
"- When I think about brazilian music, I remember samba, and my hips starts moving, they come to life!"
A pop reference, Britney songs also shines for themselves. Last year, she earned an entire Glee episode with versions of the hits Toxic, Baby One More Time, Womanizer, Oops. But she has other preferences when it comes to her covers:
"- I love watching my fans doing covers of my songs and uploading on internet. Most of them are really good. Makes me smile to know how much time and effort they put in these videos."

"Don't Keep Me Waiting" has a very different vibe compared to the rest of the album, but it's absolutely amazing. I adore her rock-inspired tracks; they fit her voice perfectly.

"Sailfish" is horrid. I used to like it, now I don't use it unless I'm in a certain mood. "Don't Keep Me Waiting" >>>>>>>

The fact that it's a typical Stargate production turns me off. However, I LOVE the bridge.

Never. The fact that they are single worthy doesn’t make them good.
