Britney songs that should have been singles
gmphmac

Her albums contain so many gems which could have been real hits.

Worthy contenders:

Oops!...I did it again
Can't make you love me
What you see (is what you get)

Britney
Cinderella

Circus
Out from under
Amnesia

Femme Fatale
He about to lose me
Inside out
bizzle

Inside Out.

I agree although she usually has a decent run of singles there are so many ones that should have been either in place of others or just have been released for me:

...Baby One More Time- I Will Be There or Soda Pop to finish of the campaign.

Oops!...I Did It Again- What You See (Is What You Get), Can't Make You Love Me, Girl In The Mirro

Britney- Cinderella and Bombastic Love both should have been released instead of ILRAR just criminal.

In The Zone- Breathe On Me, Touch Of My Hand, shame the campaign was halted due to injury

Blackout- Radar should have come straight after POF, Toy Soldier and Freakshow and Why Should I Be Sad.

Circus- Unusual You in place of radar.

Femme Fatale- How I Roll, Big Fat Bass, Trip To Your Heart, Seal It With A Kiss, Drop Dead Beautifulo the entire album was chock full of potential hit singles but alas.

Britney - Lonely
In the zone - breathe on me / I got that boom boom ( altho they were promo singles)
Blackout - the entire album tbh
Circus - Unusual You, Out From Under, Mannequin
Femme fatale - Inside out, He about To lose me, Up & Down, Scary, Selfish

Pretty much all of Blackout. I always thought Break the Ice was one of the weaker tracks on the album. Freakshow would have been a brill single.

I love most of Oops! as well. Particularly the last 4 or 5 tracks.

And Then We Kiss from her remix album is a brilliant track too. Would have also been a great single.

Lonely, Freakshow & Showdown.

Also B-sides that should have been A-sides:

Everybody- it has a smaple of Sweet Dreams how was this never put on the album let alone not released as a single.

Get Back- Another Great Song not included on Blackout with Huge potential.

Outta This world- A nice midtempo love song that would have slotted in nicely nd would have been good as the ballad released between all the beat heavy tracks.

Also I find it baffling how she never included the ballad "everyday" on one of her albums simply beautiful my fave also I assume it was for / recorded for Femme Fatale?
She really does have so many great unreleased songs

Outrageous was released, but only in certain countries and in a limited release iirc.

Anyway, I'd say Up and Down, Inside Out and (much as I dislike it) How I Roll were missed oppurtunities from Femme Fatale (over Criminal, which I love but wasn't a good single choice). Also I think it wouldn't have been a bad choice to release Shattered Glass or Out From Under off of Circus.

Mannequin is one of my favourite Britney songs ever, gutted Radar got released from Circus when there were so much better songs!
