Britney Spears - Glory

[mindtrappa]

Which mod has that quote by Britney along the lines of "The music isn't deep or meant to change the world, but that doesn't mean I didn't work really hard on it"?

I genuinely love that quote.

Do you mean me? It's one of my faves as well.
Cackling at being mistaken for a mod.

Oh goodness, yes I meant you!

Love you, boo.

So, how bout that Liar snippet. Anyone here hear it? I haven't.

@Mr Telephone Man has it!

Nnnot a moderator getting in on this romper room fuckery.

Doesn't Britney's team read this site? Mr Telephone Man is about to get hit with a cease and desist letter.

 

[MYCAL]

It's just hit me that we are getting a Mattman & Robin track on this album and I'm so excited.

Wish I never listened to Clumsy now. I need the whole thing yesterday!

 

[R92]

Ok, but I absolutely adore Clumsy. It's just so... weird? It feels so surprising to have a Britney song hit me with a left hook like this. I mean, it's not objectively the best song ever, but it's so far from what I would've expected. Can't wait to hear it in HQ.

 

[Mushroom]

'Clumsy' is a fucking mess but I'll still use.

 

[Nigel]

Can't wait to see how Clumsy does on Spotify vs Private Show. Speaking of which, I noticed she has a hit from every album except Blackout on her top 10 most popular songs under her Spotify profile. Weird that Piece of Me isn't there but crazy to think that she has a song that the general public recognizes on every album she's released. Not many artists can say that!

 

[Jersey]

Clumsy is so fucking brilliant. The build is yas and she sounds so on. I don't know what flame was lit under her ass after Britney Jean and Pretty Girls but they deserve a raise and a bonus.

 

[Izzie]

This feels like a good time to remind everyone that the original Make Me video still isn't out.

Sadly I don't need a reminder. I think about it all the time.

 

[GreeneRising]

I'm so excited to hear Clumsy... can 11 (that's the time iTunes updates, right?) hurry up?!

This is her resurrection era - crucified Blackout and Circus then was asleep for two eras in a cave and now she's awake and ready to spread the gospel, red wine with Jamie Lynn, bread and fish

Can you all stop with unnecessary Femme Fatale shade? Its a good album and it produced 3 of her biggest hits. Take a seat.

+1 this forever. It's a great pop album. Infinitely better than Circus.

I've just listened to a LQ audio of Clumsy and I'm not entirely sure what to make of it yet. I think a lot of the more intricate details of the production are lost because of the quality. It's a bop, that's for sure. To me, this is being played at a party that looks like a cross between The Fifth Element and The Great Gatsby.

It's also clear that Britney's voice has been given room to really shine with the album because again with this track, her lower voice is a real highlight. I don't know how to explain it but there are flourishes in the outro where a sample of her falsetto is used. To me it's angelic / otherworldly, like a Siren call off in the distance. I can't wait to hear the HQ version!

Yep!

I prefer Femme Fatale to Circus.

Honestly, I don't even listen to much pre-Britney Britney anymore, but the only time she's ever hit a genuine "WTF" low was with this last album.

 

[Leopold]

I wonder where 'Clumsy' fits into Britney's discography, quality/impact-wise, when contextualized with Taylor Swift's imperial phase and current pop culture dominance.

 

[stereosalt]

Circus murders femme fatale. Blur is like, omg.
