I've applied for the ESTA, which is basically the Visa. It cost £14.
It's worth it for seeing Britney I'm having a Britney day today. I have my Circus Fantasy perfume on as well. It's my fave Britney perfume. Any good videos/performances I should watch?

I'm wearing Cosmic Radiance. It's one of my favourites, along with Midnight Fantasy. I haven't tried Circus Fantasy.

I bought Midnight Fantasy three weeks ago but I haven't worn it yet. I need to. I also bought Hidden Fantasy last weekend and I haven't used that either I have two bottles of Circus Fantasy and one is unused, but it will get used in time. I haven't tried Cosmic Radiance, but I tried Believe in my local chemist the other day and I really liked it. I really wish I had worn my Britney T-shirt today

It's lovely. I prefer it to Radiance. Cosmic Radiance is in a silver and black bottle.

I haven't seen it for sale anywhere, but if I do I'll give it a sniff The Fantasy range seems to be more common here in Ireland. I tried Believe the other weekend and I saw Curious for sale somewhere as well, but it was in a gift set so I couldn't smell the perfume (no pun intended )

Erm, Britney Jean is my least favourite album! If I was to listen to any album right through it would be Britney, ITZ or Blackout.

The Oops tour live in Louisiana, aaah such great memories, the performances are all great and it really takes me back to a time when I was happy.

I'm watching I Am Britney Jean at the moment. I haven't watched this since February and I just feel like watching Britney things at the moment.

I hear the Kylie/Britney collab is gonna be on Giorgio Moroder's new album. He's releasing his first album in over 30 years in the spring and there's gonna be two songs with Britney on there. There's the Kylie x Britney song and then Britney has a solo song on it. I for one am excited

It certainly is I've worn out the rest of her discography, particularly when I have days where I listen to nothing but Britney songs. I do have those days sometimes and it's partly to do with one of my lecturers at college

Yeah tbh it feels like ages since we've had any substantial music from her, her last album really wasn't up to scratch in comparison with her previous albums, I remember playing the likes of Blackout, Circus, FF etc for months and months and months after release date but BJ I got bored of in about 2 weeks.
Hoping for an amazing album, and I think she's got a lot more control over this next one after re-signing her contract to give her more creative freedom.

Exactly. To be honest we haven't really had any decent Britney music since Femme Fatale. Britney Jean had a few good songs (and I especially love Work Bitch as it reminds me of a strict lecturer of mine at college ) but other than the few good songs on it the album is pants. I feel like it was a bit rushed and it was overshadowed by Vegas. I wouldn't mind hearing some of the unreleased songs from it. What happened to the Danja, Naughty Boy and Charli XCX songs?

will.i.am shouldn't be allowed to work with Britney again. Wasn't It Should Be Easy a leftover from Will's album? I still play Blackout a lot. It sounds so fresh even after 7 years. Hands down her best album. Blackout, ITZ, Britney and Circus are the Britney albums I play most often. I do play her other ones sometimes though. I've been playing Oops and BOMT a fair bit in recent weeks. I hope she can release the album she wants to release. Remember what happened to the original Femme Fatale concept?

Yeah I just want her to be involved in every way, the concept, the music, the writing, I want this to be HER album, BJ was clearly a will.i.am album.
I mean you know you've made a bad album when fans prefer your 90's bubblegum pop records better lol.
I think the sales of the album really showed at least her team that we as fans were not happy with the quality of BJ, hopefully they take note and improve.
FF was a great dance/pop album but we all know it wasn't what she wanted, she couldn't have appeared any less interested in interviews (though that could be down to the meds).

Blackout, Circus and Femme Fatale are some of my favourite Britney albums. The former, especially.

BIB - I believe that she only made Britney Jean so that there was new material to play at Vegas. If Vegas wasn't planned I doubt very much that that album would have been released.

Britney Jean was awful. Easily her worst album.

Exactly. I want this album to be raw, uncut Britney Spears. I want it to be Blackout 2.0 but at the same time the closest thing we'll get to Original Doll. I think Britney Jean at times felt more like will.i.am ft Britney. I wonder did they choose him to be the EP of the album because Scream & Shout was such a hit and they thought another massive hit single would be possible? The fact that I listen to BOMT and Oops more than Britney Jean says a lot, huh? I think the original FF was supposed to be more R&B. There is an unreleased song called Pleasure You which fits that style and that song was intended for it. Oh what could have been... I'm not slagging off FF altogether too as it was a a solid, fun, summery dance-pop album.

CD singles

Lucky, Boys, Piece of Me, Everytime, Sometimes, BOMT, Toxic, Crazy, Born To Make You Happy, Gimme More, Slave 4 U, Oops, Stronger, Do Somethin' and Not a Girl Not Yet a Woman.

Tbh I only bid on this because I am missing the singles for Gimme More and POM, but it worked out cheaper putting a bid down for the whole lot of singles than buying those two separately haha.
I already have all the others LOL.
But not long to go now actually, I'm missing about 10 CD singles now, once I have them I might go for cassettes. Not sure yet.

Ooh nice! Some of my favourite Britney songs there Well you could always keep the extra copies of the singles you have (and keep the Gimme More and POM ones) or sell them on. Which other CD singles are you missing? I actually have a copy of Overprotected on cassette. I never listened to it as I bought the album soon after I bought the tape. I do remember seeing her first album for sale on cassette back in late 1999 though!
