Track Review: Britney Spears "Gimme More"

· by

In the real world, there'''s no better feeling than running into an ex-girlfriend who'''s gotten fat and unattractive since she dumped you. In the world of pop culture couples, the relative answer to that must be when your ex-girlfriend'''s married and divorced a redneck dancer and has her career firmly placed in the toilet. What would feel even better, I imagine, is the ex trying to appropriate your successful, adult sound for her very own and falling flat on her face for her efforts.


Welcome to ''"Gimme More,''" the new Britney Spears single, which is as rife with retarded ''"adult''" sexuality as ''"I'''m A Slave 4 U''" was, only presumably without a jackable video to go along with it. When Justin Timberlake sings about being ''"Lovestoned''" or bringing ''"Sexyback,''" you can believe it. He'''s still a young man who can, without question, bed any woman he lays eyes on. Britney, on the other hand, is a mother twice over. Contrary to popular belief, mothers are not sexy, although given Britney'''s reverence for Madonna, her confusion is understandable.

Full of droning, low electronic bass lines, ''"Gimme More''" is a song you almost want to like and certainly one you'''ll be forced to hear for the next three months. It'''s Britney'''s bid to recall the pop genius of ''"Toxic''" and the sexiness of ''"I'''m A Slave 4 U,''" but it falls short. What'''s key to Britney'''s appeal is the ability of the audience to almost believe the song, which she ruins by breathing ''"It'''s Britney, bitch''" before the song starts. Where her other hits have been more undeniable than they'''ve been insipid, ''"Gimme More,''" with its chant of ''"Gimme gimme gimme gimme''" in the chorus, leaves the listener wondering if millions of dollars can'''t always buy a good song or if it can'''t make you know the difference between the good and the bad. Regardless of whether we want Britney to give us more, we'''re getting it.

I Love "Gimme More" Britney ROCKS!!!!!!

Luis

Umm. I wonder if you're a little bit biased? Reading this was a waste of 2 minutes I will never get back.

Jimmy

You're not judging the song for what it is, it's obvious you're just judging the person as much as you want to look you don't do that. The song is catchy and it's already getting lots of plays in less than 24 hours because people is requesting it.

CJ

shut the **** up who ever reviewed this song is a stupid hatter THIS SONG IS FIREEEEE, you dont know **** about music cuz you say IM A SLAVE FOR U was bad but in reality it was britnesy biggest hit go suck a damn bird , BRITNEY IS BACK AND **** ALL THE HATERS................

mike

Ok really get over yourself! Its a hot song! Oh i hate websites like yours that gets off by putting people down go **** off!

shadoe

It's not bad..

Maite

Interesting how complicate your review with such comments like "redneck, fat, unattractive and having a failing carrier" as if calling this woman names would justify your need to downplay the affect that this record has had in less than 48 hours. #1 on NY's Z100, Will I Am proclaiming it as "dope" and a "club" song...What is true, is that it is not a perfect record, but it is definately going to be a hit once Britney makes her appearence at LAX and the VMA's. Britney has never had a perfect record, nor a perfect voice...but the package that she sells is what makes her so appealing to both adolesence and adults.And please, once she steps onto that stage to perform her well calculated return, all will be forgotten. All the allegations that Kevin has drowned Britney with cannot stop this truly talented woman. All the men in the world will once again find her sexy and attractive...but this time because she is real, she is human and because she did it on her own!

Average Joe

Actually, it's pretty catchy. And good. IMHO & YMMV, of course.

Joe

LOVE IT!!!!

Courtney

[...] she brought some songs. You know you can’t resist. Here’s another one. You can also listen to Cold as Fire here if you haven’t ripped your ears off by this point. [...]

We all love to hate...but this is almost too easy

Jesus. This is a review? Some piece of redneck trash needs to get an education, and it isn't Britney. I like the song.

Brandy

All well thought-out responses! Does sarcasm translate over the internet?

Pat Hipp

Glad to have read a review that isn't kissing all up on Britney's dimpled, flabby ass. The song is a'ight but not great. The fans are just mad at anyone who doesn't join in on the Britney Fan Circle Jerk.

Ron

Haha... Will.I.Am said "it's dope." So there you go. Psh.

bradford

I actually like the song. I drove home from work today and I heard it 3 times already!P.S I only work 10 minutes from homeGIMME MORE

Jenny

being an exfan, i didnt expect dis song 2 b dat gud, but to be honesh i was pleasantly surprised, da song is actually quite catchy and likeable. Dis review is biased on her personality and not on da track itself, after hearin da song i actually feel da brit culd make a gud comeback after all. Its a gud dance track, and deserves more credit,as Will-I-M said.

Akhil

This is a terrible song. Britney's 15 minutes needs to be over with before too long. It is time to let another talentless manufactured pop tart dominate the media.

Eric

This new song is GREATT!!!!!!I knew you would make a comeback BRITT!!maybe a little more hot songs and you will be the HIT GIRL of the yearyou're and amazing aritsts who gives what people are saying about you.If they thought BRITTNEY was such a horrible singer than why are you taking the time to go on a website to LISTEN TO HER MUSIC!!!!!!!and write rude things about her.IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT THEN STAY OUT OFF her WEBSITESS!! WRITING MEAN THINGS DOESN't make you any COOLER!***HOLES!much love:]gimme moree!WOOOOTT HOOOTAND YOU KNOW YOU THOUGHT BRITNEY WAS HOTTTTTTTTTTT as F*CK when she was the in thing!!EVERYONE DID B*TCHES.ITS BRITTNEY bitchhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Lexi

Gimme More is definitely a different tune than her other hits, but its a good place to start her comeback. I like it! AND TO ALL THE PEEPS WHO TRASH BRITNEY, WHY ARE YOU CLICKING ON STUFF TO READ ABOUT HER???? YOU ALL ARE LOSERS AND ONLY WISH YOU HAD HALF HER TALENT/MONEY! BTW, to everyone that says she is fat?? come on-she had two kids in less than 2 years, and there are bigger women than her out there. Lets take a look at your body-lemme tell u, i bet you aren't the cream of the crop.

Ami

O.K first off i will say that talkin trash about Britney has NOTHING to do with giving a song review...what she does on her own time should not even be known to us much less be hated on by low lives like yourself...she human like everyone else and I bet that you've made some shit choices in your life aswell...DONT JUDGE B*TCH!!!Now on to what should be talked about and that being the song itself...I think Its GREAT...Its no TOXIC but good nontheless.

Joseph

Oh and p.s Britneyfan circle jerks are good times...your just pissed noone asked your sorry ass to join.

Joseph

[...] posts about besotted teen idol/mom of the century Britney Spears seem to get the verbiage flowing on this site, we’ll go ahead and share this tidbit with you: Billboard today reports that [...]

» Britney Spears’ new album supposedly

I agree with the above, you sound bias and it was a waste of 2min i will never get back, the song is the shit and it is britney.....bitch. Dont hate the player, hate the game. Your article only looks at the singer not the song which is very much in comparison to Timbaland "The way I are" and 50 cents "Ayo" they are all similar and they are and will all be hits. Learn one thing, you will have to hear this song for the next three months because people will be requesting to hear it!

lorien

By the way Patt sarcasm does translate over the internet! Your review is full of about a handful of it. You remind me of Perez hilton, trashing everyone but takes the time and energy to embrace their negative hatin', i commend for being a Britney hater thank you for giving me a reason to like britney's music even more then I already do. Take her SONG for what it is, and no that is not sarcasm its honesty. Get it? Oh so lets think about this for a minute, if moms aren't sexy and lets say your married to a women which I doubt, who has reared your children, she is no longer sexy, its crap, you couldn't find anything to say about the song because you like it and to uphold your snide nature you went straight for the singer not the song, congratulations. The first step is admitting you have a problem!

lorien

LOVE IT BITH!

Jenny

LOVE IT BITcH!

Jenny

I must disagree the song is catchy, but whatever floats your boat!

javier

I think J-Lo's new single DO IT WELL is wayyy better than this.

Ken

do it well is much more better!

Genie

omg!! that was soo rude. this is such a good soonggg! cmon she's #1 in australia (only being on radio for a day) and was #1 on hi-noon countdown and interactive 9@9 @ z100 in NYC. CMON, everyone loves it. she's back, bitchh. f**k the haterrss! GO BRIT!

samantha

Yeah....the song is so cool....very catchy!btw...who's J-LO???? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Nikko

-----------------------------------------------------------==================================================================this song is jammin. the production is fresh and funky and it's a songthat is going to work in the clubs.==================================================================-----------------------------------------------------------

sugary ish

Jesus, Patty Cakes, you're the most hated man on the internet.Seriously though, your review sucks.Love,Schmid

Schmid

LOVe the song! But hate her! She needs jenny craig babe! Instead of its britney bitch! She should say " I'm a cracked out bitch!!! :D

Maggie

I think its pretty good. I think maybe she finally listened to Deborah Gibson and have up her vices and got back to why she is a performer for in the first place.

Patty

This review is the most disgusting, offensive, rude, and totally unwarranted piece of hate-speech I've ever read about Britney and it tops even perez hilton.Perhaps you really need to take a look at yourself and deal with your issues.better, get together with perez for a gay marathon.

Tim

I feel the article was biased against Britney. We all know Britney has gone through alot, but who made you God. I wish she finds the wisdom and ability to handle her storms in life. I must say she is talented and has that has the X factor. Gimme More is great. I really hope she finds her way and wish her the best.

007

I have to disagree with the article. This song is sooo hot and definitley a club banger. Some people just refuse to give this girl a break.

R

[...] Gimme More [...]

Talentless Whores » How horrible are the 2 n

Am I the only person who is offended that he stated that mothers aren't sexy. I don't know what world this idiot is living in but I know tons of sexy mommas. Make it about the music people!!! This is the last time I visit this site...

LE

GO AND F**K YOUR SELF MATE AND WHILST YOU DO THAT GIVE YOUR HEAD A WOBBLE TOO. THIS TRACK IS GONNA CATAPOLT BRITNEY TO SUPERSTARDOM FOR EVER!! ITS DEFFO HER BEST WORK SO FAR.

KUZZ

I heard Britney's new song 'Gimme More' and it's so hot.

Yoni

Pat you smell

rob

Stupid website! Gimme More is hot!

ryan

The song is a pale imitation of the sound of Justin Timberlake's newest album. That's what the review boils down to, for those too busy defending their fallen queen to read comprehensively. Yes, the song is catchy, yes, it will be played all over the radio and in clubs for months to come. No, that doesn't mean the song is good. God-awful Hootie & The Blowfish owned the Billboard singles chart at one point. Music that appeals to the lowest common denominator will always be popular, regardless of whether it's brilliant or trite farcical crap. I mean, Burger King's mad tasty, but that doesn't mean it's good food, does it?

Pat Hipp

The song sucks. It sounds just like her other songs and her voice hasn't changed since Hit Me Baby One More Time. It is too repetitive and electronically over done. I can't believe people are actually calling this a song. Anyone could have made this if they had the right equipment. I thought a vocal artist was someone who could actually sing. Their voice was strong enough that it didn't need electronics. She has made a joke out of the music industry. It's pathetic. It's pathetic to see how many people actually think this is good. All those who like this song or any other electronically made song obviously don't know music. That's sad.

Bethany

The song is crap. It's boring, there is nothing new or original. It's catchy because some guy knows how to throw a decent beat, but the vocalist sucks. If you want to consider britney a vocalist.

Shawn

Britney's so over. The song is a joke. Yeah, given the right equipment I could have pulled that out of my ass and made a million too. could have done that with all of her shit songs.

kristen

I rather overdose on Ex-Lax and die! I am so sick of Britney, and this "new" track is the same old S%$# she has always done. She can't sing, period! Any cat in heat can moan and groan and breathe on an electronic track. I thought she was going to re-invent herself, but the skank keeps going backwards. She stinks!

Brandon

really........ I cannot fathom what is making people like this song. WIth all the other great songs on right now, we are picking this? I have sirius and they play it way too much, really, way too much, so much that if they don't stop playing it, I will no longer see fit to send them my monthly subscription for thier service. And whether or not the review is biased based on Britney's behavior is irrelevant, after so long it does become quite hard to overlook her antics, and being a mother myself, this woman completely disgusts me, she needs to focus on taking care of her children that she saw fit to create. Either way, this song is terrible, and if this is all that it takes to please people then the whole music industry is in trouble. Remember the macarena? Yeah, great, this is what we have to look forward to. Meaningless songs that people like because they can dance to them. Justin Timberlake makes songs you can dance to and they don't sound like crap. Anybody could have thrown this song together, there is no special talent here. This is definently for the 14 and younger crowd, but then again, Brit always did want to be a role model for younger girls! Lets just hope they don't follow in her footsteps.

tina

wow dis song is good...i aint a fan but its really catchy..its good to have her back in the scene...shes well known for her catchy beats and she delivered..best of luck to her!!!!

Tati

ITSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS BRITNEY BITCH!! hahathis song is sick! luv it

Nat

This review sucks, and the person that wrote it sucks. How dare you say that she isn't sexy because she's a mother. I really didn't pay any attention to any of the other crap you were talking about because instead of reviewing the song, you got down and dirty and very personal. I'm a mother you **** for brains and I'm sexy as hell.

Priscilla

I actually like the song...Go Britney !!!!

Ms.J

its a catchy song ..... im glad for Britney.... shes talented and i wish her well!!

sara

Legandary Britney Spears? That is one of the lines in the song......and I agree! I just hope the CD is as good.

Ken

Cant belieive the slagging this girl gets critics have said she's outa shape? WhaTTTTTTTTT any women would die to look as good as that paid for or not and any man would love his girl to look as fit. Ok the song is ok i agree with some of the other guys there must be better songs out there, no sorry i disagree cause as a song writer I know what you will find is only the in crowd will get the songs to the artist real talent lies undiscovered because of this. Welcome back B stay of the drink the drugs and all the rest keep smiling your still lookn damn good girl.OH and as for the mother bit hahahah my daughter who is 16 has male friends who have told her quite openly they would love to you no what with there mother, my wife so to the reveiwer get a grip as for Justin dont make me sick any one who earns a living sounding like michael Jackson is and always will be a wanna be not a true star you really think he is in the same ball gameas ELVIS or MICHAEL JACKSON come on what f...... world are you guys F...... living in.MOther me anytime BRITNEY anytime

Josh

Damn, Britney got a lot of love out there. Too bad for all you "highly intelligent" people, with your lips firmly attached to her underside, she rolled outta rehab, got liquored up and stumbled onto stage - Live on MTV. She was "great" and it's obvious all you "rocket scientists" knew what you were talking about. Wow, that was off the hizzy. How does it feel to be "vindicated" after this reviewer reality blasted Britney, err, "showed bias and has **** for brains" only to be "rebuked" a week later. That was some impressive showing by Britney. All you "quality people" should be really "proud" right now.I guess that old saying is true, you can take a girl out the trailer park... But damn, does everyone come from a trailer park in country?It's also true that eventually, you get what you deserve. Keep the blasts coming, because you're the ones stuck with that outta shape, incoherent trailer park trash stumbling downhill. Yall love her and yall can keep her. Just remember what side of the fence you're on.But please, keep the hatters out of this. They've got enough problems of their own.

muffinmuncher

man give me more is such a fantastic song i love it! BRITNEY U ROCK GURL!!!

britney me

She is So Yesterday.I sold my Indonesian Copy of Baby One More Time and Since replaced it with a Debbie Gibson Album.So Much Classier

franz

waww. haha really brit is back! as you play it more, the more you'll appreciate the song. the song is very catchy, and is hot!

patricia

dude, you can defend yourself all you want but what it "boils down to" is the fact that this is not a review. only about 4 sentences of your "review" was actually a review. the rest of it was you saying **** about britney herself.

vartson

This review is S***. It says nothing about the song. This reviewer should be fired. The song is catchy and sexy. Britney's back and better than ever. U better believe it!!! GO BRITNEY!!! XxXxX

New Britney fan

I agree with you. I personally cannot stand sexually laced and slutty songs. What ever happened to those days when Britney sang songs like "Sometimes", "Oops, I did it again," and "Lucky." Honestly, I just can't stand to watch and listen to Britney dress and perform like a stripper anymore! And by the way, she's fat and ugly indeed. But that's America for you. Good and soulful songs don't top the charts. No, it's the disgusting songs with the artists who have a reputation for slipping their tops off, showing their panties and getting caught with drugs are the ones that get all the attention. I have listened to Gimme More several times and I really believe Britney has talent. It shows in the song. Her voice and rhythm is amazing. I'm just sorry that she has to sing these lyrics and perform like a slut.

Cathy

She is one of my favourite singer .. anyway I think she lost a bit in last two/three years... Anycase for me is still one of the best!

Ti Piace

Oh. **** the haters. Me lovessssssssssss Britney. :]Talk to the hand haters!

Sugar Alfonso

I love this song actually. Lotsa love Brit!

Sugar Alfonso

Excuse me, but moms are hot... just not nasty moms like Britney ;)

meghan

If this reviewer actually gets paid to write this garbage, he should be removed from the payroll with immediate effect. Talk about bias

J

Oh and regarding his retarded last post, at least Britney didn't go to a load of already well known producers and get them to make a clone album for her like Justin did.

J

Wow she did it again... she came up with another garbage tune

Papa Smurf

shez done an amazing comeback she rocks even if she was bald
