Britney Spears

Proofreading has never been a strong point of mine...haha.

I didn't even release it was Blackout's 4th anniversary a few days ago!

My favorites from Blackout (not saying the best songs):

Exactly!! That is how I felt when I was writing it. And Why Should I Be Sad is good as well.

My Top 5 is flawless, my taste is indescribably bad , I won't conform and have Piece of Me, Gimme More, Break The Ice, and Get Naked clogging up the Top 5.

Break The Ice/Freakshow/Toy Soldier rule this album.

And Gimme More is there!
 
I love Perfect Lover, just truly love it. And Why Should I Be Sad - underrated, a lot. These are the parts that really do it for me:

"I sent you to Vegas
With a pocket full of paper
And with no ultimatums on you
I thought what could separate us
But it just seemed that Vegas
Only brought the player outta you
(Hey baby, what's your name?)
"

and that bridge...

"And don't you worry
About our angels
(All the magazines trying to intervene
Seeing things in the gossip section)
There'll get good guidance
And be trained well
Don't worry I'll keep a little secret
When I ask this question
"

People say they love the 'Britney' album but don't like this song so much, I don't get it. Soundwise and maybe also concerning the lyrics it could have been on her third album, see Lonely and Cinderella.

Thanks for reminding me of Blackout's brilliance Mr. Telephone Man. Not that it needs reminding, but I'm playing it right now and it's ever so flawless. I just spent about 10 minutes thinking of a Top 5, but I cant' do it. It's the only album I can think of that's honestly perfect from start to end.

Edit: okay I've decided to let my iTunes decide, these are my most-played songs:

1. Toy Soldier.
2. Freakshow
3. Get Naked (I Got A Plan)
4. Perfect Lover
5. Hot As Ice

That's a pretty flawless Top 5 if you ask me. Indie, as you'd call it.
 
Brilliant top 5, Telephone Man!

The entire album is just COMPLETE perfection, but I suppose I'd say:

1. Get Naked
2. Hot As Ice
3. Gimme More
4. Radar
5. Outta This World/Freakshow/Perfect Lover/Why Should I Be Sad

I honestly couldn't believe this album when I first heard it. It was just exactly what I wanted from her. That never happens. And it never gets old.
 
Reading all this I have this weird feeling that people are over Piece Of Me. Didn't it have any lasting power or have you guys never enjoyed it at all or does the album have better songs to offer? For me this song is still a career highlight (although nowadays I prefer Gimme More).
 
he / him
1. Heaven On Earth
2. Gimme More
3. Piece of Me
4. Break the Ice
5. Get Naked / Toy Soldier

I was listening to this earlier, such a perfect album. I've also been singing "Get naked, get naked, get naked." all day.

Some days this is my second favourite album ever.

What is the number one?

Also, what does she sing in Why Should I Be Sad? To my ears it's 'Should I get back for sex, or not?'. I take it that's incorrect.
 
'Blackout' is my all time favourite pop-album. It's incredible. Isn't it ironic how it was released at a really dark time of her life, probably when she was at her lowest point, yet it's her best album! Maybe that plays a part in why.

In no particular order...
-Gimme More
-Piece Of Me
-Radar
-Get Naked
-Freakshow
-Toy Soldier
-Hot As Ice
-Ooh Ooh Baby
-Get Back

Aaliyah is always my #1.

And I think you're talking about the "Why should I get mad? Feel sad? Who knows?" bit?

Blackout is all about Get Naked.

I remember when Get Naked leaked. I was so hooked. I was also one of the first to put it on Youtube and got the most views out of all videos on that day. Of course you know how it ended up.

Anyways the album is all about the dark vibe for me that's why I don't need Hot As Ice and Ooh Ooh Baby (only sometimes).
