I'll be completely suprise if this explodes on radio. Why they picked this out of everything else in the album is beyond me. well for one with no promo it made it to the 70's on the hot 100 album release week.

Just to a MUCH MUCH lesser extent. So much less that it barely sounds like them at all? I. AGREE.

Yeah, 'SIWAK' sounds nothing like 'TiK ToK' or 'Cali Gurls'.

... if this isn't sarcasm... it is right? ... well, that's awkward It isn't. Really though? It's one of the most single-worthy tracks on the album by most accounts - plus it's initial digital performance. Plus the fact it's catchy as fuck.

I think it will reach top 15 at worst and at best it will be a top 5. I think this song will have incredible longevity throughout the entire summer...

SIWAK isn't single worth-y at all. The singles on the record are pretty clear. While most of the album is strong, there are only few songs that could stand out if released to radio and those are (clearly) BFB, IWG and IO...imo. I understand...loving the unexpected love for Seal it with a kiss. Inside out is overrated for me. I actually see it as a single but the come on part is so annoying. She could have sang it alot better. The "COME ON!" part is the absolute highlight...of the entire album. But, I digress.

Many have publicly expressed that the production is what makes "Femme Fatale" a worthy listen, while admitting that Spears' vocals lack resonance. This is as tight a collection of tailor-made club and dance anthems more than anything, and it isn't like "Femme Fatale" is a breakout sales success story. She has increasingly become a singles artist as of late, in that the vast majority of her success is linked to a sole radio format: the Mainstream Top 40. Thus, I would argue. if anything, Britney Spears is just that kind of artist increasingly primed for digital single success more than album sales. Namaste, Lisping Hibiscus

This is my favorite single from this album so far, and I really liked the other two.

Will IWG become her first ever 3rd single to hit top 5 Hot 100?

I just think TTWE is such a strong single and this sounds like a copy of that song. I hear so much of TTWE in this that it's just weird to me. They could've gone with something different. It's not a bad song, at all, I just don't like it as a single. But whatever...

Its like TTWE, but a Brave New Girl version, or worse. Would have been good on the Britney album.

I agree with you guys- it's a step down musically and maturity-wise BUT at the same time it's a great single I think. I just don't prefer it to the other songs.

I find it funny that Britney Spears has slowly transitioned from an albums artist to a singles artist and her last 4 albums are her best, the ones that sold the least.

To be fair though her success is only mirroring what's been going on in the music industry the past decade. Declining album sales and increasing single sales/success. The tour seems like it's doing well though and as long as she's delivering the hits she's still very relevant as far as the pop landscape goes.

I think it's just the fact that at the time when she first came out we were in an album market, now we are in a (mainly) singles market. I still view her as an album artist, if you compare her first week sales to other artists, she opened really well. Her current sales aren't great, but they aren't bad either. Single Mix: Change comes in @ 2:30. Is this official? I like it alright, but it's unnecessary. The album version would have been fine but at least most of it is the same.

Okay, good. It wasn't bad at all but I didnt see the reason to make the song almost 4 minutes long at radio for a 'dance break'!
