    What, terrible?

    Horrible they played it on todayfm last night. I never liked Britney but this isn't much of a comeback.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,900 ✭✭✭rannerap

    The trick with this song, I find, is to listen to it with some nice earphones. That or a ferocious club soundsystem. It's a devious little song, this.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,626 ✭✭✭Stargal


    I like it. Really surprised that it's decent tbh; was expecting a trainwreck. But it's a good single. Hope it does well for her.

    According to The Sun, she opens her new song Cold As Fire with the lyrics:

    "I'm just the girl with the ability to drive a man crazy/ Make him come in my mouth/ Make him my new baby"
    Other sources are saying the lyrics are:

    "I'm just the girl with the ability to drive a man crazy/ Make him call me mama/ Make him my new baby"


    I'd **** a brick laughing if it was the first one

    According to songmeanings.net, it's the slightly less controversial 'Make him call me mama'.

    And Cold as Fire is one of the songs that was leaked in the past week, but it's not going to be her new single.

    If her new "comeback" song was by anyone else no one would listen to it. It's nothing special at all.

    of course but really thats how people make their money and she has earned her status in the past she just has to salvage it


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,390 ✭✭✭Stench Blossoms


    I like it. I think she's a headcase but the songs grand.

    If reports on her performance at the VMAs are true then I really don'tt think this will be enough to salvage what's left of her "pop" career.

    From RTE.ie
    Spears' MTV comeback a big letdown:

    Britney Spears made her comeback at the MTV Video Music Awards in Las Vegas last night, but dressing in a stripper-like outfit and miming her new single she failed to impress.

    Spears performed her new single 'Gimme More' in a black sequined bikini and knee-high boots.

    Reuters reported that she moved "sluggishly around the stage", "often with the support of a troupe of dancers" at the Palms casino.

    The 25-year-old singer, said Reuters, is "no longer boasting the buff body that helped drive her to international superstardom almost a decade ago".

    Speaking to Reuters, gossip columnist Perez Hilton said of Spears: "She blew it. Everybody knows Britney lip-syncs, but that's because she dances so much. She barely even danced in this."

    Hilton continued: "It was so bad. It was painful. It was embarrassing. And I loved it!"

    During a performance on Saturday night, rapper Kanye West said of Spears: "I can't believe she would perform. She hasn't had a hit record in years."

    Spears' new album is due out in November.

    Little tip for ya. Every word in the English language beginning with the letter "Q" is proceeded by the letter "u"

    The only exception is the word Qwerty and words of a foreign origin.

    This is probably the very last forum i thought i'd get a handy spelling tip!

    Back on topic I have watched the Britney performance and it was woeful. It was obvious she was just going through the motions and didn't really want to be there, i don't know how but she didn't even mime in time.:rolleyes:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,192 ✭✭✭norbert64


    it was pure car crash tv, for sure.

    mind you, score one for curvy women everywheres :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 364 ✭✭Ms Inquisitive


    I forgot the 9 o'clock showing of the VMA's so I'm waiting for the 11 o'clock one!

    Just have to see how bad she actually was. Just hoping they haven't edited to the extreme now!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,117 ✭✭✭✭MrJoeSoap


    Okay, whatever about the topic at hand, but who the **** is Perez Hilton??? I've seen that bloody name everywhere over the past week.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 364 ✭✭Ms Inquisitive


    He's a gossip columinist in Hollywood!!

    His website receives millions of hits a day and he seems to be working wit MTV now!

    Check out his site, it's updated every couple of hours with new stories about celebs and he works off people mailing him photos and stories!

    I've seen him on tv a few times and he is classic!!

    Thanks for finally sorting that one out, though I think I'll steer clear of him for now!

    Toxic was good, I like the strings on it, this is fairly sh1t.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 848 ✭✭✭MayMay


    Does anyone have a link to her VMA performance that was apparently so bad? No sign of it on You Tube yet surprisingly and our MTV is gone now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,117 ✭✭✭✭MrJoeSoap

    Cheers Joe but "This video is no longer available due to a copyright claim by Viacom International Inc. " came up.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,117 ✭✭✭✭MrJoeSoap


    Ah sugar, must literally have been taken down in the last 10 minutes, I watched it there after I posted the link.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 848 ✭✭✭MayMay


    Aww thanks anyway Joe, those feckers are quick!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,626 ✭✭✭Stargal


    It wasn't quite as terrible as I'd expected after reading the reports - it was more tragic than awful tbh. A bit of me still believed that she could pull off a killer performance last night, despite the craziness of the last few months. I think it's fair to say I was wrong...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,049 ✭✭✭Driver 8


    What, like all the great performances she used to give us? How last night was any different from the sad, over choreographed, miming she's always done, I don't know...

    Same with the Spice Girls reunion, do people not remember how shoddy it all was?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 848 ✭✭✭MayMay


    Any links that work yet?

    Agreed. makes me feel not too bad looking at Britney with a "Normal Persons" figure!

    she's got no energy or somethin....its like she cant really be arsed.
    probably stoned out of her head in fairness.


  • Registered Users Posts: 83 ✭✭Missy Moo

    She looks awful! No energy, just going through the motions, not putting anything into it. Her hair doesn't look the best either. Maybe the VMAs were a bit too early to make her comeback, she's clearly not sorted out.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,390 ✭✭✭Stench Blossoms


    I don't think its as bad as its being made out to be.

    It's not great either though, she just looks like she hasn't got the energy to do it.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,330 ✭✭✭✭Amz


    It's being made out to be bad because people are comparing it to her former performances, which were of a much, much higher standard than the one at the VMAs.

    People bought into the Britney Spears theing because she was feisty and energetic, they forgave the lip synching because she could dance.

    That "performance" was poor on many levels and it just goes to show that you can't just jump back on the showbiz train after that much of a tumble.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 18,693 Mod ✭✭✭✭Kimbot


    TBH it looked like she didn't want to be on stage at all!! The first thing I thought of when I saw it was that she would prefer to be out back drinking away and most of her body language suggested that aswell!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,173 ✭✭✭D


    Britney's performance was bad, the comedien on after her totally died, was just reusing old material. In fact, the vmas as a whole weren't great, felt too disjointed. The idea of multiple gigs going on was good but they switched between them way too much.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 542 ✭✭✭lady_j


    In fairness it just looks like a bad case of stage fright...

    after all of this attention she'll prob wont go back on stage again!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 848 ✭✭✭MayMay


    She looks like she doesn't want to be there and like ye said, looks like she has no energy....does she not have her "people" telling her before she went on that it was crap? Poor girl...she looked great (IMO) but that wasn't a performance. Thanks a million for that Clare Bear.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 668 ✭✭✭blow69


    Its been a while since shes been on a big stage.She did look nervous.She will shake it off though.She is a born performer!

    Love her new song.Thought it was only ok at first but you need to listen to it a few times.It was the same with 'Sexyback'


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,382 ✭✭✭✭AARRRGH


    Did you see after the VMA's she once again forgot to wear her panties as she was getting out of a car?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,060 ✭✭✭Niamho!


    Who in their right mind decided to get her to perform so early anyway!?

    I really do think her album will be big.
    I'm loving her new song, even one of my colleagues who is a complete macho type guy was caught by me shaking his head around to it.:)
    Its been on fm104 a few times today and yesterday.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,423 ✭✭✭tinkerbell


    I love all of Britney's songs so couldn't wait to see her at the VMAs but I really do think it was a case of stage fright and because so much **** has been going wrong for her these last two years. Marrying that good for nothing waster K Fed was the worst decision she could ever have made!

    I really like Gimme More, it does grow on you! :) Hope she does another performance soon and gets it right :)
