Can't Hold It Against Me

Those that know me in the 'real' world know that I love to dance.  Whether in a studio, in my living room, in da club, or my car like no one is looking.  I like all types of music, but some of my favorite artists give me the tunes that I can groove to.  Insert:  Britney Spears. 

I am not here to say that her voice is fantastic by any means, but I will say that her music makes my rump move.  Her lyrics do not bring enemies together, but the beats give me the variety to feel like I am in my own music video.  I am a Britney fan.  There.  I said it. 

Are you done laughing?!  It's okay, I'll wait.

When she had her whole I am going to shave my head and talk with an English accent phase, I took a step back, but I didn't lose hope.  I was the only person, in my circle of people, that could feel that she'd come back after all the craziness.  Well, I was right.  She released an album, sold out shows galore, earned her little 'Pop Princess' title back.  Good job, Brit.

But this morning, I wake to her new single...released a day early.  Not that I was waiting.  I just wanted to see the direction of this new album.  My review of this new song:

Not impressed.  It's definitely got a beat.  A techno beat.  I can't stand techno.  It's like fingernails on a chalkboard to my ears.  The 14-year-old that is in my heart holding a portable CD player, not an ipod is hoping that this next album is not a disappointment. 

I have to give her and her team credit on something though.  They definitely fought tooth and nail to keep the song under wraps until they were ready to release it.  Yay for keeping that old-school, guys.  Now...lose the techno and leave that for the awful remixes.

Perfectly hoping for more,
Danielle
