Watch all the Britney fans come out now!
 
I heard about this on CNN last week, and while the idea of the cover itself is appalling, what's even more ridiculous is the fact that she thinks she already merits a "GREATEST HITS" album? Sorry, don't think so.

I think she has been single-handedly ruining her own career. <laughs evily>

GeoffZ 08-19-2004 08:02 PM

I'll reserve judgement until after I hear her version.

Look on the bright side, Bobby can use the royalties from this to buy more crack.

LOL! So wrong but so true.

Dude, after she's covered the Rolling Stones' "Satisfaction" and Joan Jett's "I Love Rock and Roll" (both horribly), this is about two hundred steps up. This is actually something I can see her doing decently.

But Bobby thinks that "Crack is wack". No, wait, that's his wife. Nevermind!

I don't know who I'm more pissed at, Joan Jeet and the Rolling Stones for letting her do it, or her for butchering it. Probably the A&R guys at the record labels for comming up with the idea.

There are not words to describe the ghastliness of this. I hope Whitney and Bobbi Kris hunt Brit down and kick her ass into next week.

Crack is wack because she's too "rich to buy crack." Her words, not mine.

Yeah when I read about her Greatest Hits album in People magazine I was like OMGWTFBBQ?! b/c seriously she does not have enough good songs for such a thing. And she more than likely never will. Her music is fun to sing along to in the shower, but it is by no means stuff that will turn into classics. :rolleyes:

Haha I was thinking the same thing. Does anyone know what exactly she plans to put on this Greatest Hits album?

Lady Pi Phi 08-20-2004 03:09 PM

Does this mean if she puts out a greatest hits album we'll never have to hear her sing again???

GeoffZ 08-20-2004 03:23 PM

The GH album will have 2 new songs (one being "My Prerogative"), tracks from her past 4 cds, and a separate remix cd.

And this in itself is wrong.

IF IT'S A NEW SONG HOW THE @#$% CAN IT BE A GREATEST HIT!! BY DEFINITION THIS IS NOT POSSIBLE! NEW SONGS SHOULD NOT BE PERMITTED ON GREATEST HITS ALBUMS EVER EVER EVER!!!!!*




*unless you're Billy Joel. Then it's OK.

this is why undeserving people have a GH album. the have one or two new songs recorded and they don't know what else to do with them:rolleyes:

her GH album will have: Baby One More Time, Sometimes, Drive Me Crazy, Oops I Did it Again, Stronger, Lucky, Don't Let Me Be The Last to Know, I'm a Slave, Overprotected, Boys, Not a Girl Not Yet a Woman, (maybe I Love Rock n Roll because she did release that as a single in Europe), Me Against the Music, Toxic, Everytime, Outrageous and then the 2 other songs

if that's correct, that's about 17 songs

I never understood why bands did that. But Aerosmith and The Eagles have done it a bunch. So.....whatever I guess.

sugar and spice 08-22-2004 01:04 PM

Well, it's all about marketing. They know that the hardcore fans won't bother to buy a new "greatest hits" album unless it has new material, because they've probably got all of the band's albums. In order to reach out to both casual fans (who will buy the greatest hits for "the greatest hits" portion) AND the hardcore, they need more than just the same old radio singles.

GeoffZ 09-16-2004 11:28 PM

Ok, so I saw the video today and I liked it. The way it was shot and the setups were cool. I could have done without the Kevin cameo. At least he wasn't wearing his usual wifebeater, baseball hat, and jeans outfit. The song itself sounds good. Bobby's version is better, but I like what she did with it.

aphibeach 09-17-2004 12:15 AM

i saw the video and enjoyed it but then again i'm a britney fan

she announced her set list for her album which will include "My Prerogative" and a new song: "Do Somethin" plus "(I've Just Begun) Having my Fun" (which has been released as a single)

i dont know if it's a southern thing or what but a lot of people (including a ton of my sisters) love Britney Spears.....well probably the music more so than her persona

It's all about the southern pride ;)

AlphaGamDiva 09-17-2004 02:45 PM

:eek: not ALL Southerners enjoy her.....promise!!!!!!!

DeltaSigStan 09-17-2004 02:48 PM

They just took the 6 singles they made for each album and stapled them onto one album........

Bobby Brown to Britney Spears......kinda like going from nasty Nas to Esco's Trash....

I guess the song went from someone who loves to beat on women.....to a woman thats just.....beat...

smiley21 09-19-2004 07:58 AM

i thought the video was awful because of the Kevin cameo. now i used to be a huge Britney fan, but that all came tumbling down with this last album. to me, it is like she is trying too hard and she is desparately trying to keep everyone's attention. i love Britney pre-2001. i still LOVE the first two albums. the 3rd one gives me mixed feelings. the 4th one, i want to throw in the garbage. heck i think i will.

i think i would like the video better, if it had nothing to do with Kevin. but i think what she is bringing across is just corny. doesnt she know that what she did is the 'kiss of death'? how often does putting your S.O. every really work in a video?

i do not think that this will last. married life will slap her in the face. but it is her prerogoative, so why does my 2 cents matter???
