Who's left for her to collaborate with? Katy perry and gaga and she's done with all the current female stars.
 
Pre-Sale of the Femme Fatale Tour started today (or yesterday, to be exact). Is anyone going?

Actually, a better question would be: is the tour even stopping anywhere nearby? /foreverneglected


P.S. two amazing remixes of Till The World Ends from Britney's tumblr. 1 | 2

They sound like different songs (though with a consistent apocalyptic tone). The second one reminds me of Zelda for some reason. :lol
 
The instrumentals have leaked- Seal it with a kiss which is my least favorite song actually has an amaaaazing beat.

I've yet to hear the album, from the tracks i have heard it seems like it will be a great album. Any tracks similar to old school Britney?

Everyone says Criminal sounds like old school Britney but I personally don't see the resemblance. The closest to her earlier days for me would be I Wanna Go, it's bubblegummy pop in some parts.
 
The bridge in Criminal is old-school Brit and her voice style is very Oops era IMO. The track itself is a new for Britney though.

I Wanna Go and Seal It With a Kiss has shades of old school Brit definitely.
 
Oh yeah Gasoline is classic Brit too. It could've been on the Britney album and no one would've batted an eye. For some reason I always forget Gasoline lol even though Seal It With Kiss is the one song I could do without.

Anyone has heard the main vocal edits of Femme Fatale. Definetely shows she can sing and the vocal layerings are done to enhance the track. She even said so herself how she prefers weird vocal effects on her tracks.

Where are these? I've only heard the instrumentals, which, by the way, are amazing.

Just look for them on youtube. Not all of them have leaked but off the top of my head I remember listening to the edits of He About To Lose Me, I Wanna Go, Drop Dead Beautiful and Trouble for Me.

Just look for them as Main Vocal Mix (Insert Song Title). I think she sounds cute on Drop Dead Beautiful lol

"Big Fat Bass" is the 3rd single off FF according to well connected sources. SMH SMH SMH

Inside Out or I Wanna Go would've been the perfect choices. BFB is one of the lowest selling FF tracks on itunes despite the big push the song had.

Ugh, not my favorite choice. But because kids are gonna blast this out of their cars during the summer it could do well.

I rather hear Inside Out on the radio.

Yeah everybody is gonna come out with their own uptempos for the summer so Inside Out would be rather refreshing to hear.

Speaking of radio, Till The World Ends will soon become Britney's biggest radio hit ever (her biggest being Toxic). Pretty impressive.

I'm not gonna lie. These titles and records mean nothing to me anymore. A day doesn't go by or Rihanna, Bieber, Ke$ha, Gaga, Britney, ... can claim some kind of "record". It's obvious that a combination of (1) today's tracking methods for top lists and (2) today's marketing machine from big artists have made it a lot easier to propel a song to "record highs" no matter how significant the song actually will prove to be in the long run.

Just the other day I learned here on gaf that VEVO views are also tracked. And considering that half the time the "related videos" section on youtube is a VEVO Gaga song, even if the video I'm watching is a political debate or a cat jumping in a box, I'm not surprised about this new trend of record shattering songs.

Drop dead Beautiful would have been a radio single.

Aren't they just banking on the fact that Will.i.am is in the song? I wonder what the single choosing process is like.
Click to expand...
I'm guessing this too.

I love Big Fat Bass but it's such a terrible choice to be quite honest. Inside Out has not only been universally praised, it would've stood out like crazy among all the dance beats surely clogging up the airways this summer.


This also means we'll likely be getting a video with will.i.am. The ugh.
 
i do hope there's a radio edit for Big Fat Bass because the song drags. It's too repetitive, even for a pop song. Also Britney sounds a little like Nicole from Pussy Cat Dolls in this (who is trying to re-start her solo career)

Unfortunately, the radio edit will most likely not remove the biggest problem with the song.
 
I Wanna Go is the best choice for a single. Radio will love it.

In fact radio has been very very nice to Britney this era. Both HIAM and TTWE are her biggest radio hits since Toxic. TTWE will soon become her biggest radio hit ever in just a one or two days.

I love How I Roll but I dunno how it could fare as a single. Criminal is being considered as a single as it was added on some radio stations in europe. I can see happening with this "return to organic" sound going on these days. Electro pop is on its way out guys.
 
I adore How I Roll, but I dunno. It's a very polarizing song, so it probably wouldn't do too well as a single. I Wanna Go is probably the best choice in terms of mass appeal.
 
Souldriver said:
Totally unrelated, but in this song the moment they sing "When I found a new calling to god", all I hear is Britney Spears.

Am i crazy, or does this indeed sound like Britney? :)

Cant really hear Brit in there man lol

Britney.com uploaded a poll asking fans what the next single should be. "I Wanna Go" has a big fat lead over everything. In fact, the most popular songs after IWG are Trip To Your Heart, Criminal and Inside Out but they're all under 15%

RELEASE TRIP TO YOUR HEART IN EUROPE JIVE!!!!!!11!!

I would be surprised if Trip to your Heart becomes a single. It doesn't sound like single material. It's by far my fav song of the album though. <3

Godney at the Katrina event she's hosting.

She looks amazing! She looks so fit. Must be from all those touring rehearsals.
 
Its official! TTWE is her biggest airplay hit ever. This is impressive because her songs dont really last long on the chart (since only one format plays her) and radio has usually had a bit of a anti-brit agenda but ever since Circus she's slowly won them back.

More pics from the Katrina event

When will your boney faves ever look like this???

Yeah thought so too =P
 
Only heard a few songs from the album and already I kind of love it.

Never been a huge Britney fan but there's some real good radio/dance material here. I Wanna Go could be MASSIVE in clubs with a slight remix. That chorus is golden.

Till the World Ends continues the industry's current obsession with choral "woooo ohhhhh"'s but it's good stuff. Hold It Against Me just tears it up during the second half where the beat kicks in with the chorus - clever production as it offers incentive to keep listening.
 
Something cool I found.

I Wanna Go is the third single. A KISS FM DJ accidentally confirmed it when he said "Im remixing Britney's third single I Wanna Go". Cool.

She's hosting Wango Tango this saturday. Woo

You should get it. Its a brilliant pop album and the production is classy.
 
I was hoping so hard for Inside Out to be the next single, but I Wanna Go should be an awesome summer song. I'm just glad it isn't Big Fat Bass.
 
Its official!

Britney Spears Confirms “I Wanna Go” As The Next Single
From Her Platinum-Certified Album "Femme Fatale"

"Till The World Ends" Currently #1 Dance Song in The U.S.

New York, NY - Pop icon Britney Spears confirms that the summer-friendly, up-tempo “I Wanna Go” is the official third single from her platinum-certified Femme Fatale (Jive Records). “I Wanna Go” is produced by Shellback, Savan Kotecha and long-time collaborator Max Martin. Innovative director Chris Marrs Piliero has been tapped to direct the video.

“I Wanna Go” comes on the heels of her most recent No. 1 smash hits, “Hold It Against Me” and “Till The World Ends” which ranks #1 on Billboard's Dance Club Songs chart. Both songs are from Britney's critically acclaimed seventh album. Billboard also notes that “Till The World Ends” coupled with the remix featuring Nicki Minaj and Ke$ha gives Spears a radio audience of 87 million in the U.S., which is “the highest weekly audience of her 12-and-a-half-year chart career.”

Britney’s Femme Fatale Tour with special guest Nicki Minaj, Jessie and the Toy Boys and Nervo kicks off June 16th in Sacramento, CA.

Hopefully. Did you know the song debuted #1 and stayed #1 for like 3 weeks in Malaysia?

Kinda cool. Hopefully the video will deliver like TTWE.

By the time you read this, Britney Spears will have scored her sixth #1 debut with Femme Fatale, her latest installment of supersonic, stealth-fighter pop, a collection of songs equipped with laser-guided, heat-seeking hit missiles. In fact, Femme Fatale is more like an F-22 Raptor than an album.

Maybe I shouldn’t be amazed that Brit finds herself atop the charts once again, but don’t we live in austere times? Aren’t Odd Future the only thing that matters these days?

I’m only sort of kidding. Because, frankly, each and every time Britney lands another #1, it’s kind of like we’ve traveled through a wormhole and ended up in 1999, a time when the industry was still flush with cash and Lou Pearlman still lumbered the land. This was only 12 years ago, but it may as well have been 12 million.

These days, we still have plenty of pure pop stars, though none of them are quite like Britney. Lady Gaga is into performance art. Katy Perry is the California Gurl. Pink is the punky older cousin with a ton of tattoos. As is often the case with evolution, they have each developed specialized traits in order to survive. Britney is, in a lot of ways, the origin of the species (for simplicity’s sake, I’m just ignoring Madonna, who basically did everything before any of this generation’s stars were even teething). She was — and, I suppose, still is — the music industry’s first attempt to promote a star that is everything to everyone. And each and every time she surfaces with a new album in tow, it signals the return of pop’s Mesozoic era. For all intents and purposes, she may spend her time between albums trapped in amber, waiting to have her DNA extracted by some scientist.

This is by no means meant to come across as a slight against Spears. I fully understand why her fans love her the way they do, not to mention the fact that Femme Fatale is a heck of a pop record, a starry shadowbox of the coolest sounds you’re likely to hear all year. It’s more me simply marveling at the way she operates — in the cockpit of a high-powered fighter, making glossy, big-budget videos, putting on full-scale pop spectacles. There truly, honestly isn’t anyone else like her.

We should take this opportunity to appreciate what Britney Spears — and her album — represent. She is the last super-pop star left standing. There was a time when everyone did things this way; now it’s her and her alone. Spears is still everything to everyone, in a time when all we hear about are “niche markets” and “splintered genres,” and for that alone, the success of Femme Fatale is noteworthy. Can she continue to survive among her more specialized peers? She’s certainly earned the right to, though one gets the feeling she’s probably not too worried about that fact. The thing about being the first is that there isn’t really anything — or anyone — to compete against. So let others sweat the small stuff; Britney’s only concerned with being Britney. Now and forever.

Love these pictures of Godney mingling with mortals.

Also, dat Jason needs to do something with his hair, and I literally mean do something. It looks like he doesn't lay a finger on it after waking up.
