Two ballads (everytime and the new smash ballad live)...everything else pre-recorded and lipped.

What I posted back in the spring:
That said, if she went through all of her incarnations in pop it would be epic. Her life can already be a 5 part Movie.
Show-
THE GOOD YEARS
1) Baby one more time-(
Teen pop/Bubble gum pop) girl next door image being youthful, effervescent playful teen innocence and the spirit of being young and having fun.
Songs geared mainly towards this image:
BOMT, Crazy, Sometimes/
Born to make you happy
2) Oops...I did it again-(
Cheezy/faux edge overproduced pop) good girl with a wink (trend: The overproduced vocals that Cher made popular in a flash with 'Believe' Britney brought it to a teen audience and put out multiple songs instead of one and is credited and often discredited for that trend when some artist not as talented (t pain) and some more talented (chris brown/usher) and others started using the overproduced vocals in the mid 00s.
Songs geared mainly towards this image:
Oops (if like 2000 satisfaction/oops mashup)..., lucky (not performed but in between when she changes costumes like the interlude of Break the ice on the circus tour and showing how she was on top of the world,
Stronger
THE SHIFT
3) Britney-(
urban pop/teen angst crossroads) Coming of age transition phase from girl to woman (trend: Slave for you was a game changer song and video wise before them other girls were adding urban producers and features Slave for you was the perfect blend of urban pop without being trihard as was Boys until they ruined it with the video game beat remix.
Songs geared mainly towards this image:
Overprotected, Slave, Not a girl
STEPPING OUT INTO YOUNG ADULTHOOD
4) In the zone-(
underground dance/vibey trancey and electro pop) her college party girl experimental phase Her free spirit, college, experimental image: Phase where she starts to deal with real experiences and real emotions/pain (MY FAVE because I was a sophomore in college and this was like everything to me) (trend: underground dance pop: Trend: When everyone was a pop artist featuring a rapper and the radio was dominated by urban music, she took the dance route. Billboard dedicated an article for 'Toxic' and 'Hey Ya' from outkast being game changers
Songs geared mainly towards this image:
Toxic, Me against the music, Everytime I wouldn't mind her performing Breathe on me, Brave new girl (not performed but change in costumes where video showing the shift in her public image) and touch of my hand too.
NOT SO GOOD, PITFALL STUCK IN A RUT YEARS
4-5) Greatest hits-MP:
(electronic pop leftover) Her burnt out, rebellious image where she made declarative stateements with
'My prerogative' (not performed mashup between breaks showing the change and fall from grace)) and 'Do somethin'
OUT OF CONTROL YEARS
5) Blackout-
(european, dark, edgy dance pop) Her dark, out of control, girl gone wild post-rebellious/self destruction image
Trend: after urban pop artists like Justin, Beyonce Fergie and Nelly were big with urban pop sound, Britney bought it back to dance pop. Songs like Freakshow with elements of dubstep, Piece of me innovative sounds and the album as a whole
Songs geared mainly towards this image:
piece of me, gimme more Extras: including Get naked and freakshow in there (with STRONGER dubstep breakdowns) Use Freakshow for costume change and show the coverage of the complete meltdown and the craziness.
THE COMEBACK YEAR
6) Circus- (conglomerate of her strengths/anthem pop) the comeback lessons learned from a jaded woman - Her comeback phase where it was really a compilation of her strongest themes from albums 1-5. Trend: Before single ladies and other female anthems as well as katy perry, lady gaga pop splashes...she brought back the pop anthems
Songs geared mainly towards this image:
Circus, IUSA,
Womanizer, Extra: Not to perform but either use kill the lights or out from under preferably the latter documenting the comeback that put her back to the good graces.
6-7 The Singles collection- Another GH album but 3 had rave, dance influences bringing back the 90s sound that artist having been using for the past 2 years. Song geared:
3 and Radar LOL.
THE HERE TO STAY YEAR
7) Femme fatale
(dubstep/modern, club dance pop) ??? what's the real theme. My problem with FF era is that unlike her other eras it didn't have a strong theme. It was cohesive for what it was. It's a dance record but what does it really represent. The name could have been used more if she had a sultry, seductive mysterious image and songs that were released with that image (i.e. but we got dubstep. She's credited for starting the trend now but outside of that how does her image and the era define Britney Spears a snapshot in time as all her other eras did. Either way...songs geared mainly towards this image:
Till the world ends, Hold it against me, I wanna go
Extra tibdits: S&M remix where she forgot to blow her nose before laying down vocals and Scream and shout where she graciously feature Will.i.am so that he could score his biggest hit ever as a solo artist. She's a giver.
TAKING CONTROL YEAR
8th album era
4-6 songs (1 ballad, 1 mid tempo and 2-4 uptempo tracks)
A 2-hour show with around 23-25 songs performed.
8) better have a cohesive theme...here for matureney, introspectiveney, happyney, freedomney, in control ney

Maybe she'll do the original this time; however, there might be some legal issues with that one.
