It's pretty good, actually.

Notes on Britney’s new one.

:: It is called ‘Gimme More’.
:: It’s quite moody and dark-sounding but not boring.
:: Repeat, it is NOT BORING. This is brilliant news.
:: It is more ‘Weird Britney’ than ‘Pop Britney’.
:: That’s ‘Weird Britney’ in a Slave 4 U sort of way, not a going-around-shouting-and-hitting-cars-with-umbrellas-and-generally-being-a-bit-mental sort of way.
:: Around the three minute mark a very soulful man tries to sing while sitting on an electric cooker that is switched on. (This is definitely true).
:: Either that or he’s stood in one of those industrial walk-in freezers.
:: You can expects literally dozens of ‘hilarious’ YouTube parodies where the word ‘more’ in the chorus is replaced by RANDOM AND ZANY things like apples and badgers and lots of things that students find funny.
:: And ‘booze’, obviously. Someone will do a version of this song where Britney repeatedly and hilariously demands more beer.
:: Towards the end there’s a bit where it all sort of stops and someone says “bet you didn’t see this coming” and do you know what? He is right.

:: Finally - and most importantly - it opens with the soon-to-be-immortal line, “It’s Britney, bitch”, after which she says “I see you… I just wanna dance with you” and does some sort of mad cackle.


LITERALLY AMAZING.
