What do you mean it's in stores?!?! Do you mean that it's sitting in the backrooms of stores, or it's on the shelves?

I can't stand it when artists rerelease albums shortly after the original album came out. It's just too expensive to rebuy an album that you already have 90%+ of. As long as I can download the new songs, it's not as bad, but it's super annoyinhg.

I know it is, but its all for the Christmas market I guess.

Yeah, its in the store rooms of shops, and not actually released yet.

This will contain extra songs, the alternate version of the 'Gimme More' video (where she is at the funeral etc), the new video of whichever song she will release next. With many fans being upset over this cover, I'm sure they will double dip for it. I know I will!

I so hope that they do this, I will totally buy it. I love that idea of the alternate gimme more clip, that would get me into the store, purely for that.
Also, here's a quote from another forum, if it's of help-

1. Gimme More (First Single)
2. Piece of Me (Leaked)
3. Radar (Leaked)
4. Break the Ice (Leaked as "Been A While")
5. Heaven on Earth (Leaked As "Your..")
6. Get Naked (I Got a Plan) (Leaked)
7. Freakshow (New)
8. Toy Soldier (New)
9. Hot as Ice (Leaked As "Cold As Fire")
10. Ooh Ooh Baby (Leaked as "Fillin' Me Up")
11. Perfect Lover (Leaked As "You Got Me High")
12. Why Should I Be Sad (Leaked As "Stupid Things")

Don't mind if I switch topics from her new album for a bit.

A judge has revoked her visitation rights until she complies with a court order.

Full story here.

Can things possibly get ANY messier with her??

I'm sure she can pull it off.

Here is the official commercial for 'Blackout'. It looks amazing! The cover has really, really grown on me. Love it now!

Loads of fans are coming round to the cover now, and even if ome people still don't, it will really stand out in the shops as its so bright, and supposedly metalic.

Also here are some more images from the 'Blackout' cover shoot. Possible pictures for the CD booklet? They are deffo going to be used as posters in record stores etc:

I LOVE the second one!

MTV.com and VH1.com have something called "The Leak", where you can hear albums (streaming) before they come out. I just listened to Britney's new album. I'm glad I did before buying it- I'll just be downloading the 3 songs I like and use the rest of the money I'd be saving for it towards the "Ratatouille" DVD.

The 3 songs I really like are: "Gimme More", "Hot As Ice", and "Ooh Ooh Baby".

The songs that are just alright to me, in order, are: ""Break the Ice", "Radar", "Piece of Me", "Heaven on Earth", "Perfect Lover", and "Why Should I Be Sad" (which is borderline into the next category).

The songs I don't like at all are: "Get Naked (I Got a Plan)", "Freakshow", and "Toy Soldier". Which are tracks 6-8, so, in my opinion, the middle of the album sucks.

I'm now going to hear Backstreet Boys' new album, which I know I'll love!

I'm definitely buying it tomorrow, there is nothing that can stop me. I have been waiting for a new Britney album for years and there won't be anything, not even a tsunami or earthquake that cans top me from rushing to the stores tomorrow morning to buy Blackout. I'll probably offer analysis tomorrow after a few listens of it.

Can't wait, can't believe there's only a few hours to go!

James, in Australia they release albums on Fridays?!?!?! You're so lucky!!!

Have you listened to the songs on MTV.com or VH1.com? Or are you waiting to be surprised?

I got the album last week when it leaked and as a whole the CD is okay but some songs seem like they are half way done it seems like EVERYTHING with britney is like that... The GIMME MORE video, Album Cover, songs, Britney herself ALL seems like they did a Half-A$$ job.

My Favorite songs are:
-Piece of ME
-Radar
-Break the ice (THE BEST)
-Toy solider

ALSO I hate the stupid guy from Gimmie More who is in EVERY song!!!!

Atlantica · Post by **Atlantica** » Sun Oct 28, 2007 9:55 am

Are you sure you didnt get the demo CD? As the whole CD leak was not the finial version of the album, just so you know.

I love the whole album! I gave in and listened to the stream online. LOVED it all. Best of all the albums by far. I'm so glad that she is getting fabulous reviews for it as well.

Ha, well on Saturdays, but yeah, we are lucky. It's a pretty good album, I like it more as I listen to it more. The singles should be released like this-
1. Gimme More
2. Radar
3. Why Should I Be Sad?
4. Piece of Me
5. Hot As Ice
AND maybe, if they wanna,
6. Freakshow
7. Heaven on Earth
8. Ooh Ooh Baby.

Any more thoughts guys?

What about Toy Soldier?!?!?!

Thats one of her best!

James · Post by **James** » Wed Oct 31, 2007 12:41 am

Hmm, Toy Soldier isn't one of my faves from the album, but it is growing on me, maybe I'll love it, in time.

I just downloaded "Piece of Me", "Break the Ice", and "Radar". They've grown on me since I've first heard them. So, I have half the album now, and I don't like the other half much at all. But, just listening to the 6 songs that I have, the album is really good- it's just the songs I don't like that made the album seem pretty bad.

So, good job, Britney!

Princess Rosie · Post by **Princess Rosie** » Fri Nov 02, 2007 10:18 am

Looks like Brit fell shy of the #1 spot.

Here is a link to the MTV News article.

Whoa! Major congrats to the Eagles!! Selling 710,000 in the first week when the CD is only available in Wal-mart. That's an amazing feat!

And, um..... yeah congrats to Britney for sellling a measly 290K. We'll be seeing your CD in the clearance bin by the end of the year......
