The song is weak...her weakest debut single ever imo. It does nothing for me, and Iggy adds nothing to it. Im not surprised at the reaction. Im not hear to complain, just stating my opinion. :)

Are you a hater because you dont like something? No. What would be better is to learn how to deal with criticism.

I think we're all getting sick of the SAME people entering this thread to say something negative, when they've already made their point perfectly clear. I don't care if you don't like the song... but why are so many people commenting numerous times about how much they hate it/think its flopping?

90% of the posts in this thread have nothing to do with the song or how it is performing at radio. This is the radio forum. If people want to fight it out over whether or not Britney's career is over or discuss her instagram postings, do it in the Britney thread in the Artist Discussion forum.

I love how the thread is *74 pages*, but somehow it's the *criticisms* are deemed excessive.
If I'm mischaracterizing what the majority of the 74 pages consists of, it's because -- wait for it -- I said what I said at the beginning of the thread and then left!

Most of this thread is defensive Britney stans and their delusions/derailing. I get every pop star thread has that but y'all really take it to a whole new level lol

Yeah, we're definitely the ones taking to to "a whole new level." :o
Britney always has, and clearly always will, attract the most rabid anti-Stans. It's just as frustrating as ever. If this was smashing half of these posters would be nowhere to be seen. I mean seriously, why even be in the thread at all if you hate the song so much? I can't imagine wasting time in threads for songs that I dislike beyond maybe the initial post stating the opinion, much less what I see so much of here, which is many people actively rooting against the song, repeating the same opinion over and over and deliberately trying to antagonize a fanbase. There's a whole forum here people! Find another artist to troll for a little while.

Maybe you have but clearly others have not. The fact that a certain someone really went to find your post which was made on the day the song came out so he could requote it today in order to provoke the fanbase really goes to show what we've been dealing with here. Although these naysayers can continue to shift the blame elsewhere and label us defensive and whatnot (while still dedicating most of their posting time to this thread) when called out on their nonsense. :kii:

Okay, listen up. It's time for a reality check:
- First off, the thread is 75 pages. Of mainly Britney stans. You all are not some persecuted minority. Britney fans are not some persecuted minority in this forum, on other forums, or in pop culture. Anywhere. So literally just chill out.
- You can't talk about how Britney is an untouchable iconic millionaire and then complain about detractors.
- *The. Song. Is. Crap.* We are on a pop music forum. We all have extensive knowledge of what a good pop song that is still radio friendly sounds like. I am not even one to dismiss peoples' differing tastes as "good or bad", and I feel 100% comfortable in labeling this song shi**y.
Me, personally? I went in just as hard on Suit and Tie when that song came out. (And that's a better song than this.)
You know why people are being a bit relentless in criticism?
Because it really sucks when established superstars come off as desperate or try-hard by releasing bad music, all while knowing the fan base will vigorously defend it. Music that wouldn't have even turned those fans INTO fans of the artist had that music been released at the beginning of their career.
That's what people are reacting to: an entire fan base stanning a try-hard horrible song based on name alone.

That's what people are reacting to: an entire fan base stanning a try-hard horrible song based on name alone. Dramatic much? Once again, none of us are mad about people expressing their opinions, people thinking the song is s**tty, etc...we're annoyed by the fact that the negativity is CONSTANT by many of the same people who are seemingly trying to provoke the fans. I've been a member on Pulse for a long time and very rarely is a thread brought down by constant negativity, even in threads of songs that have "flopped" or whatever. Usually Pulse is above that type of thing - which is why I've always enjoyed this board. And yes you WERE super hard on JT's Suit and Tie and if I remember correctly you were called out a few times about the very thing being discussed right now, were you not? Your comments in that thread were annoying to some. Seeing stans go easier on their faves material than non-stans do is nothing surprising. None of us are saying this is her best song or anything. But even if we thought that it was I have no clue why that would bother you at all! We can enjoy this song for what it is if we choose to and are all entitled to our opinions. Anyway, I'm going to end this conversation here because I'm sure lots of users don't want to see this back and forth continue. They should just resend toxic to pop. I screamed! Thanks for the comic relief. It is her eternal smash though of course and it's still slaying today so that would be appropriate. :kii:

Just two points: - Criminal: sorry but Britney's threads are FAAAAR from being the worst in Pulse. Just take a peek in ANY Xtina or Gaga thread and what see here is playground cheering as to what we see over there... And several times thanks to Brit fans - theflying & others: own Brit fans have been VERY critical about this song, since day 1... Scratch that, since day 0 because even the mere idea of having an Iggy duet was seen as poison. So I don't really know where you guys see all this overwhelming stanning here. There are as many -or fewer even- hopefuls, who would love to see this rebound, and that's fine, but the majority of comments from fans here reflect disappointment and maybe just some pleasure about Brit having the most fun we've seen in a long time, despite this being a subpar song. I'd say this thread has been one of the most realistic in Britneyland!

She just needs a melodic, BRITNEY sounding song for the 2nd single and all hope will be restored. She can obviously go off-the-wall, but what she needs to do at this point in time is remind everyone why the name "Britney Spears" is so popular to begin with. Give us that hook, give us that melody. You can go urban all you want, just has to be fresh and not a rehash.

If this song isn't in the top 40 on iTunes after this weekend I'll be surprised, and I will also give up hope,

The fact that they used "Booty" as an example, just shows they have no idea what they're talking about when they made up this story, LMAO. That, and the fact that the source cited was OK Magazine.

LOL at them blaming Iggy when SHE wanted to promote the single and they stopped her. I'm not exactly Iggy's #1 fan but to blame her for this flopping is absolutely ridiculous.
