Is Britney back? I give props to Britney for still trying to be the entertainer; clearly people have this Britney obsession. After her immaculate choke at the 2007 MTV Video Awards, people are either praying for her to fall off a cliff or rise out of the ashes like a phoenix (In her case growing out of the baldness.) The latest single ‘Womanizer’ is the first off her new record “Circus” due to drop December 2nd 2008 the same day as her birthday, Britney’s pulling a Beyonce! I will review the LP just for ya’ll, you know all of you want to know.

Interested in hearing what her new material would sound like, her last LP ‘Blackout’ didn’t even grab my attention; it was better than some extreme garbage pop floating but still wasn’t worth my time or yours. When I heard ‘Womanizer’ I couldn’t help but think I’ve heard this before, indeed I have! Britney’s ‘Blackout’ album has a tune titled ‘Ooh Ooh Baby’ it has the exact same beat and melody as ‘Womanizer’ also twin to the Pink Panther theme song.

The tune was produced by up and coming Atlanta producers The Outsyders who did an alright job but if she really wanted recycled tunes why not hit up Max Martin for the rerun? The only differences in the tunes are the intros and slight variations in the vocal arrangements during the chorus and hook. The verses are pretty much doppelgangers, I am sure even a deaf person can hear the blatant similitude. The vocals are decent, contrived at times nothing too spectacular, of course there aren’t any Mariah runs but she’s never been a Mariah, more of a Madonna.

Lyrically speaking the most clever bit is “Lollipop, must mistake me of a sucker / To think that I would be a victim of another / Say it, play it how you want it / But no way, I'm never gonna fall for you, never you baby.” Plenty of repetition in the track, focusing more on the hook and chorus until it has accomplished drilling the infection into your system. Candy coated rain drops this is pop, skimming the surface as to what a womanizer really is, no deeper meaning in the lyrics but this is Britney Spears we are talking about, you know ‘Baby One More Time’ and ‘Oops I Did it Again’ were so profound.

Is Britney back? Not at the moment, she’s still out to lunch. We’ll see what ‘Circus' brings and then decide because if they think this tune is the answer that will refresh her career, who lied to her and them? -- 10/23/08 ©FRIDAE2008™

The only way Britney is going to make a comeback is if she returns to appealing to 10 year olds and stop trying to break the 'now adults' who used to maybe like her 8 years ago

If she changed up her sound and chose better tunez possibly she could stay relevant. If I worked with her I could help but my talents are for those who need it more than she does like myself!!

And everyone else I think has potential. Maybe she should take some tips from Rihanna's peeps.

She should do what Jada Pinkett Smith is doing, that would be awsome. People need to look back and admire how amazing she used to look. She was incredible.

I think she should have waited a lot longer than she has for a comeback. She should've rested for a while from her meltdown, gotten her amazing figure back, teamed up with an amazing producer, and then came out again with a big bang. She'll probably end up flipping out again which should be quite entertaining actually.

My god, even our own editors are posting porn.

At least it's not badger porn I suppose.
