Dear Fans

I haven't sat down to write you guys in SUCH a long time. Long overdue! We're all so used to getting our thoughts out in 140 characters, but sometimes its nice to take time to sit down and write something a little longer and more personal. I am putting the finishing touches on my new album, "Britney Jean" over the next few days and I am so excited for you to hear it. I poured my heart and soul into this album and it's been an incredible journey. I've learned a lot about myself, and as I am finishing, I am reminded of the incredible foundation that has supported me for the last 15 years. Thank you all for continuing to follow me on this journey and for allowing me to do what I love to do. I can’t believe this is my eighth studio album and I know I keep telling you that it is my most personal record yet, but its true and I’m really proud of that

I have been through a lot in the past few years and it has really inspired me to dig deeper and write songs that I think everyone can relate to. Working with people like Sia, William Orbit, and of course Will.i.am has been an amazing experience. They have listened to all of my ideas and helped me bring them to life. There are a lot of really fun, upbeat dance songs, but it was important to me that I show my strength, and my attitude, and my vulnerability. Of course, I also have some surprises for you guys ;)

I want to show you the different sides of Britney Spears. I am a performer. I am a Mom. I am funny. I am your friend! I am Britney Jean

Hope you love my labor of love!

Love Always
Britney

Some Piece of Me videos!





I really love the subtexts of the performances!

tokyoxjapanxfan 6th March 2014 07:10 AM
I actually liked the album lol.

I suppose I stopped being a fan after Oops...I did it again, and so I've been quite casual after that.

So iunno, I wasn't expecting that much :-p

toLOVE 7th March 2014 12:26 AM
Is she planning to release anymore singles for Britney Jeans? I really want a music video for Alien.

brener 7th March 2014 12:30 AM
I think the official audio release on VEVO of 'It Should Be Easy (feat. will.i.am)' and 'Now That I Found You' are serving as basis to see which song has more popularity among her audience. One of them may be Britney Jean's third single.

toLOVE 7th March 2014 01:52 AM
^ I hope not. Don't like either one of the songs.

NintendoHTF1242 7th March 2014 05:40 AM
It Should Be Easy has that really sexy instrumental break so...

Looks like the album didn't chart in USA this week.. It didn't chart in Japan either.

It Should Be Easy? oh, you mean It Should Be Pig Shit.

ayumisrael 7th March 2014 05:06 PM
Britney really flopped with this album eh? It was ineed boring though... The only good track was Til It's Gone. She doesn't sing anything save for Alien from the new album in her present show (probably because they knew how it would fare). Personal album but not interesting at all, at least she could have made it so. I hope the next one is more like Famme Fatal which was awesome.

So she is not a million seller anymore I presume?

NintendoHTF1242 7th March 2014 05:42 PM
I hate how she kept calling it her most personal album when the only personal songs were Alien, Perfume, Chillin' With You, and Don't Cry. Everything is standard will.i.am fare.

William Orbit should have done more tracks or just been main producer. The album would have been gorgeous.

@Ayumisral
Her present show is a biggest hits show, of course she won't sing the whole album, pretty much like Ayu didn't sung anything from Love Again during AT13. Still, Alien, Work Bitch and Perfume are on the setlist.

@NintendoHTF1242
Work Bitch is about her career... If wanna be where Britney is, you have to work as much as her. It's a trendy subject on pop music (Give me all your luvin' and Flawless** deal with similar subjects).

Body Ache is about performing, not about clubbing... About dancing on stage until her body aches to entertain her public... What actually makes a lot of sense considering her knee injury. The music even ends on a rather sad mood.

It should be Easy and Till it's Gone are both break up songs... Pop music have plenty of those, and we can't really know how personal they are... Tik Tik Boom is the standart sex song.

All the 3 bonus tracks deal with her relationship with religion.

Is the album as personal as Ayu stuff? Nops. But it's as personal as a Britney album can be...

Thank you. Guess I was too busy trying to find ayu-esque personal but guess this will do.

I don't know, how true it is, but she said that they'll include more songs from Britney Jean later on. But she could also be lying. Remember how her manager was emphasising that she would sing all the songs live at those concerts and how she had a vocal coach to train her to sing and dance at the same time, but from what I've heard she's lip synching all the songs on her Las Vegas shows, even the ballads.

brener 8th March 2014 01:14 PM


recently she failed her lip sync on Alien performance, awkward..

orangeakira 11th March 2014 08:24 AM
^You'd think after mastering the art of lip syncing for the last 15 years we wouldn't have to witness her mess up like that. Oh well.

My favorite songs on the album are tik tik boom, and alien, I think they both need to be singles. I have had ttb on repeat for the last week. I just wish it wasn't so short.

Surreal17 11th March 2014 06:26 PM
My favourite songs from BJ are : Alien, Till It's Gone, Brightest Morning Star and Hold on Tight (my favourite). I also like Passenger, Now That I Found You and Perfume (The Dreaming Mix).
