I know this is not THAT old, but I still love it to death. This album is pop perfection and perfect to dance to and play when you're getting ready. What are your favorite songs on it?

It hasn't aged well imo. "I Wanna Go", "Seal It With A Kiss" and "Trip To Your Heart" are the only songs that I play regularly.

Yeah, this really hasn't aged well at all. I still love it, though. I've never understood why it gets so much hate from fans.
My favorite song typically varies between 'Seal It With A Kiss', 'Scary', and 'Trouble For Me'.

Till the World Ends - I remember thinking this was so generic when it first leaked but then it became such an anthem and it's still really energetic and fun & so great when she performs it in concert! I still don't think it sounds very Britney though.
Hold it Against Me - pop perfection. Love the instrumental, the choruses, the second verse and the bridge. Basically everything but the first verse is a little boring.
Inside Out/ I Wanna Go - I know everyone orgasms to these songs, but to me they are so blahh. Inside Out is definitely better than I Wanna Go but I Wanna Go is sooo generic and just boring. I hate the chorus so much. The verses are cute and the bridge is cool but the whole I I I WANNA GO O O is just disgusting I can't.
How I Roll - my favorite track. original and quirky, so Britney!
DDB - I think this is very catchy. Fun and def. could have been single material! I know it's annoying with the autotune but it's just a fun, tounge in cheek song.
Seal it With a Kiss - Hmmm. This + Gasoline are the most basic on the album but this one is fun to sing along to. The chorus needs to be better tho.
Big Fat Bass- another one of my favs. I KNOW this one is so hated across the boards but to me the beat is AMAZING and the song is so high energy!! The chorus is definietly lacking but "THE BASS IS GETTIN BIGGA!!!" and the verses and the breakdown are amazing! It could have been shortened tho.
Trouble for Me- LOVE. Her vocals are great and this seems like classic Britney to me.
Trip to Your Heart- another LOVE. so atmospheric and beautiful.
Gasoline- basic but catchy. Could do without tho.
Criminal- Loving the flute, the melody and her voice is real cute too. All around good track and i love the lyrics.
Up n Down - YES AND YES. Why was this not on the standard? This is perfect!
He About to Lose Me- never saw the hype in this, pretty boring to me. the verses are good tho. hate the chorus
Selfish - another one that could have been on the standard.
Don't Keep Me Waiting- underrated. High energy, GREAT vocals, good lyrics and love the bridge.
Overall a great album but just way too overprocessed and generic. She seems nonexistent on the album considering the WAYYY overdone autotune on every single track and the huge productions (which is fine but mix that with her natural vocals)! This album was waaayyy too commercial sounding for me.

Femme Fatale is favorite Britney album. I just love everything about it. The only songs I could do without are "Trip to Your Heart" and "Don't Keep Me Waiting," but even those are okay.

This hasn't aged well. It's definitely the weakest record released in the second half of her career (and probably places barely ahead of her first two records).
The songs aren't even bad per say, it just feels...disposable/generic, it doesn't feel like a Britney record. Any run of the mill pop star could've done this album.

So many great memories with this one. It was my soundtrack to 2011. I know a lot of the Dr. Luke/Max Martin pop of 2010-2012 hasn't aged well, but, to me, this is an exception. It's been my favorite Britney album since it was released and I wouldn't be surprised if it stays that way.

Outside of a few songs, this album sounded dated the day it was released. It's so polished and lifeless and it just didn't feel "Britney" at all. To me this was always more of a Dr. Luke album than a Britney album.

This is far from my favorite Britney record, but I live for Up N Down and He About to Lose Me. Hold it Against Me is also ridiculously underrated as a lead single.

Still an enjoyable album and for me ranks in her top half in regards to her discography. Eternal tears forever and ever for "Big Fat Bass" never being put out as a single though. I'm still obsessed with that song to this very day.

Gasoline, Drop Dead Beautiful, & Seal It With A Kiss <3 Should've been singles
Also, Hold It Against Me & I Wanna Go are two of Britney's best singles ever.

Least we got Scream & Shout which I prefer

It had some good songs. Never really cared for Trip To My Heart, Criminal, or the bonus tracks.
