Anyway this is the most emotive Britney's been on a song since circus and I like it

[Red]

Let me preface what I'm about to say by noting that I like this song upon the first two listens. I don't love it, though, and the problem isn't Britney...or Giorgio's production, which is, technically, fine. The issue I'm having is that I feel like Giorgio didn't do nearly enough to differentiate from the original. It feels like a true cover more than a reinvention or making the song his own. That's not necessarily a bad thing, but I was expecting more than just a normal cover with a few Giorgio touches here and there. But again, I like the song. It's not my favorite of the new Giorgio tracks (that would still be "74 Is The New 24"), but it's an enjoyable cover.

Not feeling it. Her voice has been ruined. Are we sure will.i.am didn't produce this album as well?

The original's clearly better. The way ya'll are praising this version makes it seems like it's a Grammy worthy masterpiece, and in fact it won't even get a nomination.

Does it matter? Enjoyable music does not revolve around Grammys.

this is for Giorgio Moroder's album

[mariahcarey]

I don't get why people are liking this so much!

Her vocals sound like they were recorded on a phone and that effect ruins what could be a really nice voice.

[Jared]

Love her vocals on this.

YAAAAAAAAASS

Yet the true, actual brilliance of Britney recording a song like “Tom’s Diner” is that Britney Spears has no business singing about a solo trip to a Manhattan diner. Think about the scenario for just a moment: It’s preposterous to imagine she’d make it more than even a few minutes before the inevitable fan panic and paparazzi swarm that would quickly overtake her anonymous newspaper reading session.

In that way, “Tom’s Diner” as sung by Britney Spears takes on a whole new meaning: It feels like the fantasy of somebody who hasn’t been Of The People since she was 17 years old now flirting with the idea of being entirely anonymous. (Diner Fantasy, coming soon to your local Kohl’s!)

There’s a For The Record-like sadness to the idea of Britney daydreaming about flipping through the paper, entirely disconnected from the events happening around her.


loved this. it's from muumuse http://www.muumuse.com/2015/04/toms-...e-review.html/

I can do without the bridge though, hopefully she recorded that in the final version. Other than that, it's amazing

Jog on, DMF. No one is obsessing about accolades or awards for the song. Some of us can enjoy a song for what it is, not what we hope it can do for our fave in terms of relevance.

It's cute.

omg!! I'm so sorry!!!! It was wrong of me to use HIV in such a negatively light. I hope you are doing fine and we'll.. don't let my bigotry ruin your day, hun. again, I apologize.

I'm shocked you answered to be honest. Thank you and sorry for calling you stuff but I got emotional for a second. It's alright but think about this the next time you want to drag someone. You're better than that.

love this write up too. he hit the nail on the head with this interpretation.

Britney sitting by herself in a diner booth, looking around, just a mundane morning dragging on.

Vocoder, no studio-session-singer fooling us, that throbbing disco/electro beat. One of the most truly exciting musical/creative things from Brit Brit in a while.
