Britney Spears - Femme Fatale

[danimal]

the Femme Fatale special just aired on MTV and in all honestly, the performance of Till the World Ends was the BEST I've seen her do in years!

#8 ???

FLOP next week top 20

With #8 she is in TOP 20 as well

Donīt you think you are being optimistic expecting this to be still Top 20 next week?

He didn't say it was going to be still Top 20 next week.

It sells only to her fanbase. It was #3 in the first midweeks and didnīt stop falling until ending up at #8. She is going to fall drastically just like Aguilera last year. I expect lower Top 40.

If "In The Zone" went 14-37 with a #2 lead single, I think this has potential to beat it!

In USA, I expect it to be under the 100k mark next week.

[pollei]

Well, at least it didn't miss the top 10

Moogisland is back with his famous comments, but no mention of Janet in this one. I'm proud.

I think it is quite disappointing...she has been doing this for more than ten years now and hasn't really developed past the teeny pop music she made at the start. There doesn't seem to have been an real musical progression...if anything the opposite seems true. Her vocals are autotuned to an embarrassing extent, her influence on the her albums seems secondary to that of the producers and her latest single has lyrics I would expect from somebody approaching their teenage years.

If I said my heart was beating loud
If we could escape the crowd somehow
If I said I want your body now
Would you hold it against me

Cause you feel like paradise
I need a vacation tonight
So if I said I want your body now
Would you hold it against me

I used to be fairly ambivalent about her music. Some of the singles were duds, some were terrific. The days of Toxic seem like a long time ago.

are u kidding this sounds nothing like teeny pop music hello FF, blckout and in the zone and some of circus. and this is her elast autotuned album overall imo

I don't know how you can not call this teeny pop. She always has been teeny pop, even blackout.
It's hardly 'mature' music is it. The most mature Britney has ever got is 'Everytime', with the gentle piano melody and deep vocals.
Britney is not an adult contemporary artist, and this new album is one of her most childish tbh.

I just re-watched her Vegas & GMA performances.They're actually an improvement over the Circus era ones...her dancing was actually quite decent.

[Star]

NME gave this 7 out of 10 - her best review in years, i think. Poor girl. #8 is a disastrous start.
Removing her personality and any trace of personal style from her music doesn't help. This is good dance music but not good pop.

Surprisingly high rating. :-?

I was so confused when hearing 'Selfish' for the first time. I was hearing 'tonight I'm gonna be a little sale fish', I was like 'wtf is a sale fish?!' :-?

I never heard this before but now I hear it all the time after you mentioned it!

Hahaha I have had multiple confused moments while listening to Britney's song. When my mom first heard 'Radar', she kept asking me 'who's Amaretta?' and a friend of mine could only hear 'cold as fire baby, hot ass eyes' when she listened to 'Hot As Ice' from Blackout haha.

I love this album. I would mention my favorite tracks, but I love almost all of them. The only ones I skip over are Big Fat Bass (I still can't get into that song) and Don't Keep Me Waiting.

[Tom92]

Not tooooo good

[Colin]

Disappointing album position in the UK despite it doing so well throughout the week.

I'm sure the album can maintain a decent amount of success once the right singles are chosen.

[skapunk]

I am not really bothered about chart positions etc. But if this sells less than Blackout in the end, Worldwide, then it would be a serious flop for her standards (you might say ~2.8 million is great nowdays blah blah blah, but guys, this is Britney!).

ive just come to expect now tht britney always releases on "death week" in the uk and Jive think shes popular enough to compete but she isnt

[topopMAC1]

Even Radiohead missed the top 5 and are at #7... it was a bad week to release in the UK!

[urbanmusik]

If she was the sort of artist who's albums stuck around here that would be fine, but her last two have fallen pretty quickly, so things aren't looking too good. She needs another hit single over here.

#8 is great with no promo and only HIAM video.

she prob sold about 30,000 copies

[jszmiles]

#8.

I don't think many people (here at least) care about the $1 difference between getting a 12-track version of an album and a 16-track version.

only $1? or did you mean $1 per song? I bought the Deluxe Edition at Target for $13.99, while they had the original for $9.99. as a fan, I think the extra $4 was totally worth it for 4 extra songs, but I can see how a casual shopper would be more willing to pick up a $10 edition VS a $14 one.

The deluxe version is 14,99 on USA iTunes and 'just' 13,99 in stores? Now that's weird.
