This is really bad, i thought she would come back with a good song but this sounds cheap.

I dont think it sounds cheap at all.

Its not her best but its a bit of fun and the breakdown is a-mazing. (also quite daring to be played on the radio) It does start off a litttle boring but I think will be huge!

I don't like it. I loved Womanizer [catchy as hell] and Gimme more but this is just tame and sounds like a Kesha left over. Not first single material imo, hope the album has more better songs

I really like the chorus, it sounds like her older stuff, but I'm not a fan of the rest. It's too dance influenced, and Britney just is not dance, she's pop.
Tbh, it sounds like something Ke$ha would put as a bonus track on her album or something... If Ke$ha was singing it, it would probably be well recieved.

In some ways it's more an album filler track really than a strong track for a lead single.

I was really anticipating this, but I am left feeling quite disappointed I am not a fan at all!

Not as good as I'd hoped. Nowhere near as fresh and exciting enough to justify all the bigging-up. The beat is pretty good and the breakdown is great, but I find the chorus very underwhelming. It'll obviously be a hit because it's Britney, but I can't see it being remembered in the future as one of her best songs. Maybe it will grow on me eventually though.

[IMMENSE. Honestly I tried to lower my expectations abit so i didn't get too voerhyped but this is an aincredible track, SO fresh, the dubstep breakdown is incredible.

I don't get where people are getting Ke$ha comparisons from, she's done Dance like this before on Circus (Mannequin, Shattered Glass) and Blackout (Gimme More, Piece Of Me) which came out well before Ke$ha.

She doesn't sound like Ke$ha on it at all though?

It sounds like Britney, she's not half as autotuned as Ke$ha would be.

Killer comeback, and it's got me excited for Gaga's return too.

I hope this year we see the two try to outdo each other constantly, but it'll be in a friendly way as neither Gaga nor Britney would resort to bitchy little digs, and lead to a performance between the two later in the year.

Tried so hard. Hate it. It's just terrible imo. I'll be getting the album the minute it's released but this won't be getting many plays unless it can seriously grow on me.

Can't see it being a #1 if Womanizer wasn't. But it's Britney so I hope it is.

No "hate" for Britney or the song, just don't like it.

I adore Britney and will always buy her albums as I know there would always be songs on there I would like.

I hope she releases a good video to go with the song, as that might make me listen to it more and possibly learn to like it. Just like with Pink's Please Don't Leave Me, which I now love.

Wow this is awful. I used to be a big Britney fan in my teens, so she always has a little place in my heart, and some of her more recent stuff has been really good. This, however, is dreadful. Surely she could come up with something better?!

The hate on this forum is baffling. This is an absoloutly massive tune.

Sounds like a really diluted, cheesy trance-genre reject.

You say it as if we are irrational haters, disliking the song for no reason. We are just saying our opinions, good or bad.

I can't speak for anyone else, but in my opinion the song just isn't as good as it should of been.

I heard the demo first and the "SONG" not Britney reminded me of Take it off. It's poor compared to Gimme more and Womanizer. HIAM sounds forgettable, Like i have to listen to the song again to remind me how the beat goes. i'm going to wait for the rest of the album.

Don't get me wrong, I usually love anything Britney releases (apart from If You Seek Amy which I strongly disliked!) ... but this is dire, sorry. I just expected something... more...

Maybe it's the beat. The dance stuff on Blackout and Circus was really good.
