Britney Spears - Blackout [2007]

Posted on October 6, 2008 | Category: Britney Spears, Pop

Much of Britney’s latest CD is more subdued in the dance beat department, not what you’d expect from her. Granted, most of the songs are `danceable’, but they don’t have that hard hitting feel of some of her biggest past hits, although, it is definitely nice to see her moving into a more mature sound. I love Heaven On Earth, with its retro 80s electronica dance feel, and Get Naked is classic Britney. In fact, the strongest tracks on here for me personally were tracks 5-9…until I heard the bonus tracks. Track 13, “Outta This World”, is a mellow jam with a catchy melody, but it’s really just a warm up for the stunning tracks that follow. Track 14, “Everybody,” is NOT a cover of the Madonna dance classic (now that would have been hot), but this is one of the best dance tracks on here–heavily samples Sweet Dreams by Eurythmics, including Annie’s vocals. The whole CD should have been this infectious. Track 15–no, not a cover of the Beatles “Get Back”, but ANOTHER standout dance jam in the style of recent Nelly Furtado. How could these tracks NOT have made the original cut of the album??? And finally, track 16 is another HUGE reason to have this pricey import (along with track 14!). The Paul Oakenfold remix of Gimme More is here in its FULL 6 minute plus version!!! This remix was not available on the import CD single and all I can say is WHY NOT??? This hard electro house mix is the BEST remix I’ve heard, giving added attitude with a driving beat and a hard bassline. Amazing.
