Now that Britney has got her spot back in the game, she can now really transcend again. They know she can score easy hits now, but its time for more effort on their part. Britney's in a better place now, although the conservatorship remains to dampen her true freedom (which we all dont know the whole story, so i remain indifferent with my opinions). I do think with this album, it is her own that she wants, Circus was great, but i felt Jive and Larry micromanaged the whole project and directed it a certain way. All these rumors and sources saying shes with Danja and such, and about it being similar to Blackout, seem to me like Britney's ideas, she loves Blackout (obviously, half the tour's songs were Blackout..), all seems to be going in the right direction. With the right songs, the right look, and the right promo, this era could truly be a shining moment in her career. Everything is laid out for her, now its just how they execute it.
Im excited to see what Britney has stirred up for us this time.

^ 3 went Top ten in the UK charts, on the Euro compilation it peaked at #14... Her singles after "Do Somethin'" had some of her lowest chart experiences in Europe:
Break The Ice became her first single to not go Top 10 in Europe, #31 (excluding "Someday" cause it wasn't even a full single release)
and then:
Circus #22
If U Seek Amy #44
Radar #42
3 #14
although:
Womanizer #1
Gimme More #2
Piece Of Me #6

Whatever. And the reason the singles charting has changed is called downloads.

May I correct my sentence, I wouldn't say "I Fear", cause I careless about chart positions, I just didn't find a better word to fit that...

I just don't like UK snobbing her... her last big **** there was "In The Zone", that gave her 2 #1s in the singles charts there.... Same goes for some other European countries, if you see all her singles went Top ten in the European Hot 100 and since "Gimme More", she's been having her lowest peaking singles in Europe....

The peak positions of "Circus" and "Amy" in UK...
Glad "3" went top 10, I thought it wouldn't.

^ They are decent at least. Though Circus, Amy and Radar are Britney's lowest charting singles in the UK: #13, #20 and #46 respectively.

"Amy" charted lower than "Break The Ice" and "Circus" peaked at the same position like "I Love Rock N Roll".
Both singles from "Circus" are superior.

^ I know BTI and ILRNR had similar peaks, but these three were consecutive.... Her worst chart peaks in UK are Amy and Radar....
