Hey, I've got Now 72 as well! And... and... and I'm a saddo.

Any absolute drubbing you might've got for James Blunt or Duffy has been cancelled out completely because Feeder is right above it. Love to see it.

Probably my last vote for the Noisettes as I'm sure they'll be too far gone tomorrow, but that song is great. Not sure it would end up in my final 4, but definitely shouldn't be going this early.

Can't help but think Britney's being done up here because she's Britney. To some, that's a good thing, to many others, not.

 

Piece Of Me is one of my favourites of hers. A catchy EDM middle finger to the sensationalist press who hounded her to the brink of oblivion.

Piece Of Me is one of my favourites of hers. A catchy EDM middle finger to the sensationalist press who hounded her to the brink of oblivion.

Yet at the time of the song, she was inviting the paparazzi over to her house to have sex with her and do drugs. There's video of her inviting them over. She was purposefully trying to get pregnant by one of them, Adnan Ghalib, as a way to replace her two children; he was married with children too ofcourse -- that's her type. There's photos of them buying a pregnancy test together at Rite Aid. If you really wanted to do a middle finger to the paparazzi, you wouldn't just move them in with you.

 

No, I don't like her. She was a music industry plant in order to keep other female music artists in line (ie, those who play at Lilith Fair, riotgrrl, female hiphop). Everything about her is fake, and unfortunately influential. She sounded like AI on that Blackout album. Many female artists have complained that the standards now in the studio is to just sing syllables like her so it can be copy/pasted together, rather than just performing music.

I like some Britney Spears songs (I supported Oops I Did it Again in the 2000's No.1's), just found that one to be awfully bad.

That’s just extraordinarily judgy. And the “keep other female artists in line” line is extraordinary daft.
