All really excellent, check them out!!!

I'm really shocked at just how bad it is. The songs have nothing about them even though it's supposedly her most personal album ever. Everything is bland, samey rubbish, some of it horrifically dated, and most of it far too influenced by that talentless clown will.i.am, who wouldn't know what individuality was if it bit him on the bum.

I tried to let the album grow on me but it's not happening. The whole thing is a depressing damp squib from start to finish and I never thought I'd be one of the "Britney's lost it" brigade, but she really has. It upsets me a bit too much, honestly, after supporting her since day one and seeing her live twice.
