80s power ballads in the car. Which ones?!

You and Cheap surprise me. I don't know how Cheap can listen to the depressing Adele in the car. It's a mood killer.

ALL of them. namely Foreigners I Want To Know What Love Is, Whitesnakes Here I Go Again, Dokkens Alone Again...

Of course i can not live without Higher Love and Total Eclipse, lol

is an interesting 'admission'. I've always wondered how come people love something 'only when drunk'. Do they repress the love when sober because it's something to be ashamed of or something else?

More like the album is too formulaic and "samey" for my tastes, thus I need to be hammered to fully enjoy it.

I hope the 5 tracks on the Deluxe edition are better.

I should add, it appears her voice has matured a bit and gotten a little deeper. It's not as babyish and soft as it used to be, which is a good thing, IMO.

She'll never have a spectacular voice, but what she has is being better utilized than it has in a while.

i was at the Abby last night and Till The World Ends came on... yeah, it was def a club banger. I love it even more now.

I had a party for my birthday on the weekend (lol) and despite my best efforts, people kept putting on this CD whenever I seemed to leave the room or be in a conversation.

We all know that Britney Spears’ Femme Fatale has found its inevitable way to her fans’ ears before its official release date, though we had no idea we would get to listen to the whole thing this early. Instead of posting a formal review, however, we’ve decided to wade through the 12 tracks on Britney’s latest LP and offer you a numerical experience with which to enjoy the album. (FYI, expect the numbers to change when we finally hear the additional four songs included in the deluxe edition.) 1, 2, 3, Peter Paul and Mary, jump below for Femme Fatale – By The Numbers!

BRITNEY SPEARS’ FEMME FATALE BY THE NUMBERS

Number of songs that are about Britney hooking up with a stranger at a club: 6 (“Hold It Against Me”, “Seal It With A Kiss”, “Till The World Ends”, “How I Roll”, “Big Fat Bass,“(Drop Dead) Beautiful”)

Number of songs about Britney hooking up with someone she already knows: 6 (“Inside Out”, “I Wanna Go”, “Trip To Your Heart”, “Trouble for Me”, “Gasoline”, “Criminal”)

Number of songs not about Britney hooking up: Zero

Number of cat references: 2 (”This kitten got your tongue tied in knots…” from “Till The World Ends”, and “Got nine lives like a kitty cat” in “How I Roll”)

Number of dog references: 1 (”He’s a dog astray” from “Criminal”)

Number of references to “the floor”: 4 (”Till The World Ends”; “Big Fat Bass”; “Gasoline”; “on the dancefloor” in “Trouble For Me”)

Number of bad pick-up lines: 3 (”If I said I want your body now, would you hold it against me?” and “You feel like paradise, and I need a vacation tonight,” from “Hold It Against Me”, and “Your body looks so sick I think I caught the flu” from “(Drop Dead) Beautiful”)

Number of sly references to erect male genitalia: 2 (”It must be B-I-G because you got me hypnotized… Cause what I’m looking at right now would make a big girl cry” from “(Drop Dead) Beautiful”; the bass continuing to get bigger and bigger throughout “Big Fat Bass”)

Number of references to killing someone/death: 5 (the chorus of “(Drop Dead) Beautiful”; “Dying for company” (not to mention the apparent impending apocalypse) in “Till The World Ends”; “You set me on fire” refrain from “Gasoline”; “Hope to die” from “Seal It With A Kiss”; “He’s a killer just for fun” from “Criminal”)

Number of All About Eve quotes re-purposed to apply to hooking up: 1 (”Fasten up your seat belt, it’s gon’ be a bumpy ride” from “(Drop Dead) Beautiful”)

Number of different types of alcohol Britney drinks without a mixer: 2 (Tequila on the rocks in “How I Roll”; whiskey straight in “Trouble For Me”)

Number of times it sounds like Britney is having an orgasm: 2 (Very beginning of “How I Roll”; breakdown of “Gasoline”)

Vegetable shout-out: 1 (”Steaming like a pot full of vegetables” in Sabi’s rap in “(Drop Dead) Beautiful”)

Number of Britney fragrance shout-outs: 1 (”Your body feels like fantasy” in “Trip To Your Heart”)

Number of references to past Britney songs in the chorus of “Inside Out”: 2 (”…Baby One More Time” and “(Drive Me) Crazy”, which also makes an appearance in a lyric from “Trouble For Me”)

Number of times a G-rated word is made to sound like a much dirtier word: 2 (”You can be my thug tonight” and “Go downtown where my posse’s at” in “How I Roll”. How “If You Seek Amy” of Brit & Co.!)

Average amount of times we’ve listened to this album since Friday: About five trillion.

We know each and every one of you loyal Britney fans are waiting patiently until the album is officially released to legally procure it for your various music-playing devices — but if you’ve heard Femme Fatale’s 12 tracks on assorted Internet sites, what are your thoughts? Better than Blackout? Or is it impossible to pit genius against genius?

^^LOL That's hilarious

I've stayed away from any songs other than Hold It Against Me and 'Til The World Ends. I want to get the full, deluxe edition, effect when I get the album.

I have had a few Britney friends who complained of dubstep. Which makes me feel older than my birthday did...

The bonus tracks on the Deluxe edition have leaked....

Someone uploaded the bonus tracks on YouTube, I might as well post them here while I'm at it:

Up N’ Down (Produced by Max Martin, Shellback and Oligee):

I don't understand why Up N’ Down and Selfish didn't make the main album, they're as good if not better than many of the main album tracks.

I'm gonna need "Seal It with a Kiss" to be the next single. Like...right now.

Two fo my friends say Sealed with a Kiss sounds like a Kylie track. Not sure I hear it though...

As for Britney's bonus tracks, this has been her curse for a while. Remember the UK track Before the goodbye done with Bt? much better than much of her third album. Or from Circus the Gaga penned Quicksand--ace tune.
