You can download the song 'I'm A Slave 4 U' which is Britney's new song at www.britneyspears.org It sounds different to all her other stuff. Releasin g this after 'Don't Let Me Be The Last To Know' is such a big difference.

Its a more midtempo song produced by the Neptunes.

I heard it.
She wants to be an R&B artist all of a sudden.:eek:
I think her voice isn't built for R&B!
It sounds bad.

Yeah, it is a bad song-y'know the funny thing is I kind of thought that (ha-ha) her music would have matured by now; I mean I was expecting more ballards and stuff....her voice isn't built for r&b music being neither high nor strong enough. She'd better stick to dance.
It doesn't matter what you say...words don't bring me down, baby.

she has "matured" (in some ppl's perspective) alright, but i think it will leave her stuck in the mud!

its hard to think about music for me right now, but i must say that once u listen to it a couple times it gets better, so it goes from terrible to just really bad

After Releasing 'Oops!,' everybody says all her songs sounded the same. So she went for a different approach and everybody is hating it. Why complain the first time? (I am not talking to anybody here directly, just to the general world. lol)

personally i love it and although she might not top her previous success, britney spears will be around for a little while. radio stations here in the united states are constantly playing her songs and they are being requested very many times shooting to the top 30 radio airplay lists.

I agree you do tend to get used the song after a while, a lot different than previous songs though!

I finally heard it today - and at first thought I was listening to a Kelis single. She has changed drastically with a severe case of "third album time to grow up syndrome" which caused the slight underperformance of the last Spice Girls album. However, she hasn't had the long break in between so should just manage to pull it off.

It is going to be a hit I've decided now but somehow not a No.1 I predict.

i've just seen the video, and lets just say its a typical britney video. nothing great, she looks great, but the song is just awful. Its just bad, i'm sorry but for all those who believe britney can do no wrong, she has.

Perhaps Britney should change the song from

I'm A Slave 4 U
to
This Is Not 4 U

:smile:

I can´t believe how threads got so little replies those days. If that tune was released in 2011, the thread would have already 100 pages before the song is even out!!!
