The Legendary Miss Britney Spears

[Ting Ting]

WHAT?!?! I literally just cried! She ROCKED it!

Okay, she's OFFICIALLY back in my book!

[PeterPanfan]

That was incredible! She should do a studio recording of that!

[universALLove]

I know she did a really great job! I'm so proud of her! She really should sing live more often!



Glad her confidence is starting to come back

1. Would that Revised Greatest Hits CD be in place of the normal Greatest Hits CD mentioned in this thread? Or in addition to? I would actually prefer the Revised one- I think, more than any other artist, Britney does the best with reinventing her songs (like at awards shows and whatnot, when she performs new mixes of songs).

2. I am so proud of her. That performance was AMAZING! Yay, Britney!

I'm thinking it would be in place of, as she already has a regular greatest hits album. But again, I really don't think the revision rumor is true. There would have been more hype about it by now.

As much as I really don't like Britney, that performance was really good. Props to her.

I wonder if 'The Singles Collection' deluxe ed. will have a new dvd with all her music videos up to 2009...

Attention Britney Fans

Sources reveal exclusively to PerezHilton.com that Britney Spears will be doing something quite special at her upcoming Las Vegas concerts on September 26th and 27th at Mandalay Bay.

No, she won't be singing live the whole show. BUT, she will be filming those performances and insiders tell us that the shoot will most likely be in 3-D.

How very Miley Cyrus of her!

Details on the release - whether it will be in theaters or some other option - are still being worked out.

I'm THRILLED to hear this, especially since I'll be attending the show on the 26th. But to be honest, I think I'd rather it be an HBO special or something along those lines. The whole 3-D movie thing seems a bit childish to me.

Either way, I'm not complaining. As long as they're filming the show, I'm happy!

[amazon980]

i hear she will have a 3d movie soon!

[Ting Ting]

i hear she will have a 3d movie soon!

*cough*cough*A'hem*

New Song "3" Goes to Radio September 29


New York, NY - In celebration of the 10th anniversary of her debut on the music scene, Jive Records is releasing Britney Spears The Singles Collection on November 24. To launch the special package a brand new single entitled "3," which Britney recently recorded with hitmaker Max Martin, will go to radio Tuesday, September 29.

There will be two configurations of The Singles Collection; an ultimate fan box set and a standard version.

The ultimate fan box set version of The Singles Collection will contain all 29 of her singles, including the new song "3." Each disc will be packaged in its own slip sleeve case with original artwork, and will include an additional b-side or a remix of the track. The collection will include a DVD featuring all of Britney's videos in chronological order. The ultimate fan box set will also include a special booklet featuring iconic images and fun facts about each track.

The standard version of The Singles Collection will contain 17 of her chart topping favorites along with the new song "3," all on one CD.

During her 10 year career, Britney has had 5 albums debut at the #1 spot on the Billboard Top 100 Album Chart, as well as 23 Top 40 hits on the Billboard Pop Singles Chart. Worldwide, Britney Spears is one of the top-selling artists of the last decade, constantly topping charts with her albums ...Baby One More Time (1999); Oops!... I Did It Again (2000); Britney (2001); In The Zone (2003); Blackout (2007) and Circus (2008). Worldwide she has sold over 63 million albums.

Britney Spears is currently touring in support of her most recent studio album Circus. "The Circus Starring Britney Spears" tour which started in her home state of Louisiana in March 2009.

*edit*

Or is the single called "3 Love"? The same site posted another something that shows "3 Love" instead...

According to a release posted on BritneySpears.com, The Singles Collection will be available for purchase as a standard set and a packaged box set. The standard set will include 17 of her biggest hits. The ultimate fan box set will contain all 29 of Spears' singles individually packaged in slip sleeves with their original artwork and B-sides or remixes. The box set will also include a DVD with all of Brit's videos from past to present and a photo booklet with various photos spanning her career.

And apparently the single is indeed called "3". I don't know how I feel about all the singles being individual CDs in the box set. I mean, that's instead of a normal CD? I mean, yay for B-sides, though, so maybe it would be worth it. And the DVD would definitely be worth it.

So it will in fact be 30 discs in a box (the 29 CDs plus the one DVD)? I love that idea, but something tells me it's gonna be really expensive.

Also on Wiki, it says that a song called "It's All In The Game" will be a Japanese bonus track.

I assume this is going to be the track list for the standard U.S. edition as well (or maybe at least the track order will be shuffled), considering it's got all of her major hits on there. I feel like this will be such a waste for anyone who owns the 2005 Greatest Hits CD or any of Britney's other They could just download "3" from iTunes and make this CD themselves.

Granted, I have all her studio albums, so I'm not buying this standard edition. I might buy the Limited Edition depending on how much the MSRP winds up being (it's listed on Amazon at $22.99 but who knows).

P.S. - This release has been pushed up! Look on Amazon! The other day it was still slated for the late November release, but now it's got a release date of October 27th in the States!

According to Breathe Heavy, these could potentially be the lyrics to "3". I hope they're legit, but I'm thinking otherwise. Here they are:

You must know about me, so you best believe what you're told
When the world laid eyes on me, they knew God had struck gold
The stars move for me and I've got the crowds at my command
I could make angels cry with the slightest touch of my hand

I've got a killer instinct and I just wanna find my prey
All this (uhh) they write about me, do you think I have the time of day?
So when you've got the prize, you can find me in the usual place
Bring him to me with his head upon a silver plate...

Honey I was never a sinner though it's been said you're a saint
So when I start running this town, will you be ready to obey?

I got 'em, I got 'em
Got the ground shaking, hear these hearts breaking
Think I got 'em, I got em

Three (uh), three (huh), three, three, three, three, three (what)
Peter, Paul and Mary were having a threesome
Threesome, threesome, three, three, three, three, threesome
Threesome, threesome, three, three, three, three, threesome

He's Italian but my gosh, he knows the English language so well
But still the only word he can figure out is Britney,
I got this young boy trapped in my hell.

I'll leave the money on the table
I need a man, not a boy, who is ready, willing and able
Do you think you could handle the fire?
Serve my fetishes, live up to my flames of desire?

I got 'em, I got 'em
Got the ground shaking, hear these hearts breaking
Think I got 'em, I got em

Three (uh), three (huh), three, three, three, three, three (what)
Peter, Paul and Mary were having a threesome
Threesome, threesome, three, three, three, three, threesome
Threesome, threesome, three, three, three, three, threesome
What would Jesus say?
Tell me, what would Jesus do?
If he saw me right now,
Praying on my knees to you.

I can make you feel like velveteen
Sweet sixteen on this halloween
Got neighbours calling police when we scream

Like the way I work the boys, the way I work this spot
Like the way they love my voice and they love what I got
You can't compete with perfection, baby, don't mess around
When I call the curtain on your show, do you mind stepping down?
There's only room for one circus in this town...
Talk about dynamite, but I'm the one blowing up (I keep gettin' better)

Three (uh), three (huh), three, three, three, three, three (what)
Peter, Paul and Mary were having a threesome
Threesome, threesome, three, three, three, three, threesome
Threesome, threesome, three, three, three, three, threesome
What would Jesus say?
Tell me, what would Jesus do?
If he saw me right now,
Praying on my knees to you.

Thoughts?


Oh! And by the way...her Vegas show was amazing!
