I loved Pretty Girls! Best Britney single since 'I Wanna Go' in my opinion. That bridge <3

I think I finally decided my holy trinity of Britney albums:
1. In the Zone 2. Blackout 3. Femme Fatale
These to me are perfect pop albums. Circus had the material (bonus tracks and unreleased) but needed to actually be on the album and put in a cohesive way. In the Zone has different genres but does variety well because they all have a certain mood- while Circus was just a bunch of random tracks thrown together. But like I said, there were so many awesome tracks not added that could have been and it would have been one of, if not her best album. Britney is a great album as well, but it's a little too heavy on that produced voice they were going for. And it was on the border of being more mature while still being teen music. ...Baby is an underrated album, teen pop gold!! And her voice throughout slays! And I live for that sound in Deep in my Heart and Autumn Goodbye, so fun! BJ is only good for the singles and Alien. And Oops is like the less good version of the Britney album.
4. Circus 5. Britney 6. ...Baby 7. BJ 8. Oops
ETA: honestly sometimes I feel like ...Baby is better than Britney. Sue me. Obviously Slave slays but besides that most of the songs don't bring me the real Britney idk. Does anyone else feel like it's overproduced? It just seems like it tries too hard to be perfect.

Britney Spears is an enduring American icon. All the others out there run around name dropping Marilyn Monroe, but Britney is the only one who actually reminds me of her

God damn I want a new Britney album. :(
I also really wish we would have gotten a video for Tom's Diner. Easily the best thing she's done since Blackout.

Personal Ranking of all 36 Britney Singles (Lowest to highest)
36. Pretty Girls: Was never bad, just solid and weaker than the others 35. Someday (I Will Understand): I consider it her weakest ballad release, is beautifully written but doesn't hold up to others like Perfume and Everytime. Also can be forgotten a lot. 34. Anticipiating: falls here for being one of the lesser remembered and the only one that lacked a music video as well since it was released in very few areas but still is considered a single, its also one of the lesser faved songs from Britney(2001) for me. 33. Ooh La La: Surely a cute song fro occasional listens but isn't one I'd listen to that much, also hate the small beatdrop section before the final chorus. 32. I'm Not A Girl Not Yet A Woman: This song does fall flat for me, good lyrics but still have many others preferred over it. 31. I Love Rock N Roll: It was surely not a bad cover, did have a sexy video as well, but there are many singles that were better or more memorable to me. 30. From The Bottom Of My Broken Heart: Great song but not the most memorable as well. It's also my least faved of the Baby era singles 29. Til The World Ends: Honestly, I was never crazy over this song unlike many other people. I loved Criminal, Hold It Against Me, and I Wanna Go but this one could have been replaced with a differnet song from Femme Fatale IMO. 28. Lucky: Catchy and memorable but not as good as the others 27. Sometimes: Just like Lucky, except cuter. 26. Boys: Highly memorable but not as good as others 25. Born To Make You Happy: This song is one I liked a more than most people to be honest. 24. Do Somethin': I love this but its overall still not as good as some others, loved all 3 additions to the Greatest Hits album about the same. This one was one of those you'd sing along to it in the car but it isn't amazing like others. 23: Work Bitch; Great comeback and move to an EDM sound. Very new step for Britney but there is still more love of mine found for her other singles. 22. My Prerogative: Love it like Do Somethin' but it has a much better sound. 21. I'm A Slave 4 U: The start of very sexy territory travelling for Britney, its incredibly memorable from performances to the video. Britney does great here, but the song only stalls at this rank because I grew up hearing much more of the other singles and this one has been in progress of growing on me since 2010. 20. 3: Great and catchy, its close to the next two songs on the list but is behind because of the lyrics and meaning not being as good and cause I just prefer the other two's production more. 19. If U Seek Amy: I honestly loved all of the Circus singles but this one is literally almost tied with Radar but I just prefer Radar more epsecially in terms of the longetivity of which one I listened to more. 18. Radar: Like all of Blackout, I love this song a lot, but its behind because of the bland music video(yes she surely does look hot there though) and cause there is more memorability in the other songs. 17. Perfume: My faved of the BJ album, its very heartfelt and different and is her best ballad since Everytime. But there is still more memorability in other singles so this will keep the song here for the time being, might grow over time. 16. Outrageous: It hurts to know that this song will never ever be what it would be if the injury had never happened. In The Zone is love and this song is no exception. It stands out in its sound from all the other singles Britney has released since it has a more urban flavor thanks to R.Kelly. 15. Criminal: Praises to the fans who made this a single, this song is truly a standout from FF by its sound and vocals. The most raw of the tracks in my opinion, its a great song but it will stall here because the video is solid and there is still more memorability or love for other singles. 14. Stronger: The song and video are pure gold. It is a great song that set a gateway to awesomer songs and videos from Britney in my opinion. It remains my 2nd faved song off Oops for sure. 13. Piece of Me: Who wouldn't want a piece of her, jk. This song served as the best f u to well everyone who commented her over 2007 and served as an epic return to perfection from Brit. It's pure perfection and deserves the praises it gets. 12. Me Against The Music: Its a Madonna and Britney collab thats already good enough. Anyways, the music video is choreographed the best out of the In The Zone era vids. The song was a club smash and opened up one of my faved Britney albums. Thats all good enough to say it deserves this ranking. 11. Everytime: Beautifully written, beautifully sung, beautiful music video, IT IS f**kinG BEAUTIFUL OK. No but seriously this song is hands down the best ballad Britney has done in her entire career. 10. ...Baby One More Time: Before I get murdered I'd like to say this. Its a great song, great video, and great everything. I just don't consider it her best and I found more catchy fro a longer period of time. Always will cherish it but not as the best. Sorry folks. 9. I Wanna Go: Originally I would have placed this a little lower but then i realized how much i really liked the song. It easily had the best video of the FF era and one overall great video after some good or solid videos. It's also the first song I heard and liked from Femme Fatale, another album I like by her a lot. 8. Gimme More: Never has Britney to this point made a song purely for nightime club sounds and boy oh boy this song makes for one hell of a ride. It kicked off the best album from Britney Spears and created an iconic opening line that was later revisited in Scream & Shout and a little bit in Work Bitch. 7. Toxic: Easily the best song off In The Zone, easily one of the most memorable. It remains a classic in the hearts of many but I have some more that I love just some more. 6. You Drive Me (Crazy): My faved off the Baby era, its just as memorable as Baby One More Time, I just love this song a hell lot and it is also a classic from her. 5. Hold It Against Me: I absolutely love this song, its my faved off FF and is a songs he has proven to sing live. Plus the music video makes her look amazing once again. 4. Womanizer: This song is honestly incredibly catchy and memorable. It's music video is like a sequel to Toxic and is the final step that brought her back to form 100% after 2007 being a bad year for the star. 3. Circus: My faved off the album with the same name. The song has you hooked on for sure by the pre-chorus. The music video is stunning and she has pulled off another crazily successful single with it. 2. Oops...I Did It Again: My faved song of Britney's early days, this song follows like Baby's sequel except with a hotter music video and even catchier hooks and a short plot scene. But it falls behind only one more song. 1. Overprotected: THIS IS MY FAVED SONG FROM HER. Having an amazing hook, great production, two amazing ass videos to its name. It has remained as a major classic from her in my opinion and nothing will ever change that. the song is also one of her most powerful in its message, its inspiring, and was even Grammy nominated. If thats not enough reasons for you, it also even predicted her future problems if that helps.

In The Zone, Blackout and Britney Jean remain my top three, but Circus and Britney are close behind. In general, her albums are so good to me. I love that I've always considered her an album artist and I really hope they drop the whole singles artist schtick they seem to have developed. I need a new Britney ALBUM in my life!

My trinity is always In the zone and Blackout with Britney and Femme fatale taking the 3rd spot depending on how I'm feeling (nostalgic pop and happy or club ready and happy)

Revisited Femme Fatale this past week and production-wise, it probably is her strongest stuff imo. Dr. Luke really did some amazing stuff with IWG, Seal It, How I Roll and Inside Out. Just a generally feel good album, though for some reason her image that era seemed like a mess. Especially compared to Circus and Britney Jean, she seemed the most "out of it" during that era rewatching the promo performances/interviews.

YAS, she looks amazing with the current shows. Her dancing has surely re-improved more.

It's Primeney 2.0, slaying fans since late summer of 2015.

Not stopping the millisecond my favorite part of the Slave choreo begun. I'm curious if she killed that part too cause she was slaying up to that point.

I remember months and months ago when Larry said there were going to be some one off singles and stuff and that they weren't rushing any full album. I assumed then that there would eventually be an EP, so I'm not surprised.

An EP makes sense. Give us four of five tracks to hold us over and breathe new life into the Vegas show while continuing to work on a larger, more polished body of work.

Given Britney Jean bombing, I'm 0% surprised by an EP being the next step. If it's 4 really great tracks, people will want more. And then B9 can include those and 7-10 other new tracks like Meghan Trainor and Troye Sivan have done. That strategy could work well for her.

Not the least bit excited for an EP. I have next to no interest. If it's come to that, she really just shouldn't release anything at all. She doesn't need to, so what's the point?
I think that really what they are looking for is a hit single. She is so beyond that though, it just seems unnecessary.
