Britney Spears - Britney

[Devil]

She’ll Never Be Me is rather fabulous and fits greatly on the album.

Actually totally here now for the full expanded edition of what is already a fantastic record.

 

[Apoca]

You’re LEAVING
I’m WAITING

 

[Suedehead]

I Run Away is so underrated

 

[Pipo]

Why have they fucked up the iconic cover

Seriously, HOMOPHOBIA!!

 

[Inner Smile]

Can't bare her now but I must admit Slave is quite good

 

[supermassive]

It would have been nice to use the crayyon free unphotoshopped photo for the 25th cover

 

[PercyPig]

Always amazes me that someone as huge as Britney generating the money she did they couldn’t muster any decent artwork for her across her whole career.

 

[supermassive]

Now that I think about it, I can’t think of one cover that is a stand out in my mind. The original Britney one is a bit of stand out but only because it followed a disgusting beige brown cover from the previous album.

 

[supermassive]

Actually maybe this one but mostly because she went from the plain Jane imagery of BOMT to a bronze goddess in the space of six months

 

[POP!]

I’ve always like the In the Zone cover. Very simple and Smurf-y in the coloring but she’s giving face.

 

[supermassive]

Nothing like an official upload of a 25 year old performance that is already on youtube on fan accounts

 

[Pipo]

The mic was OFF!

 

[Devil]

What was the BOMT cover in the UK? We got the rather good white up-close-face one whereas the US got the kneeling cover which just looks a bit wrong to me, but it’s probably more familiarity.

 

[supermassive]

Gosh she really was GREAT

 

[supermassive]

Am I a Sinner official preview

 

[supermassive]

My Big Secret full song. Sounds like Justin's Senorita

Omg he totally stole it

 

[Pipo]

Omg he totally stole it

or maybe he ghostwrote it?

Lovely elevator music.

Lovely elevator music.

In the infamous words of Melanie C, "B-sides are b-sides for a reason," but in this case, this was locked in a vault for 25 years, so what do we say?

Unless your Kylie then they are usually better than some album tracks

 

[Lee]

Am I A Sinner is excellent. I wonder if they left it off when they backtracked the sound a bit with the movie. Otherwise I can see why the rest were left in the vault.

 

[OutSynk]

Oh My Big Secret is very nice. Makes me want to revisit the early Kelis albums.

 

[PercyPig]

When I Say So having the same intro as Before The Goodbye

 

[Pipo]

When I Say So having the same intro as Before The Goodbye

Both written/produced by BT of course

 

[supermassive]

In my imagination they included some of these songs on the actual release and put the rubbish like Not A Girl, Rock & Roll, etc on an original soundtrack release for Crossroads six months later.

That reminds me actually - is Kelis still active?

 

[supermassive]

Oh this is a bit fab for tat

 

[Suedehead]

To be honest most of her album covers are SHITE but in a sea of slim pickings I do think that the original BRITNEY is my favourite album cover of hers.

There's a certain outer space/alien-y vibe about it which I like. The font could have been nicer tho.

 

[GNL]

I've always thought that album cover was

(I also like the Blackout cover although it looks like she has a colander on her head).

 

[Pipo]

I Saw her name on the Mighty Hoopla 2027 poster!

 

[Suedehead]

The Glory re release was nice enough I guess but it looks a bit porny

 

[supermassive]

Love how stans will say “don’t tell me Britney never sings live” and they’re post a clip with the most heinous wailing
