Posted by: Nick F1 14th April 2015, 06:24 AM

Official thread for her cover of Tom's Dinner, premiere date is 17th April!

QUOTE
Who knows what’s going on with Britney Spears’ song with the disco legend (apparently she’s covering Suzanne Vega’s “Tom’s Diner), but we do have a little info about the Sia-assisted track. Mark your calendars, because their track together makes its premiere this Friday (April 17).

I think that means the Sia track is coming Friday, not the Britney one! sad.gif

Posted by: Nick F1 14th April 2015, 06:47 AM

laugh.gif it could be actually, I got to excited and tbh I didn't even noticed Sia's name in text!

Maybe the track is re-written with Sia kink.gif

Posted by: mr_aly 14th April 2015, 12:22 PM

This could have the potential to be REALLY good!

Posted by: ḇreakaway 14th April 2015, 02:47 PM

Yup Sia's is debuting on the 17th and not Britney's. smile.gif

What's the Sia song?

Posted by: Jonjo 15th April 2015, 05:10 PM

Isn't it "Diner" btw and not "Dinner"? laugh.gif

LOOOL Tom's Dinner..............Vegetables, veg-vegetables.

Posted by: barbaric_dan 16th April 2015, 03:40 PM

Well this has been confirmed by DS.

I wonder if it'll be made Album Only as I'm not sure we'll hear it until June.

Posted by: Lee_J11 16th April 2015, 06:42 PM

Well ive just heard the original for the first time and I can't say im particularly excited to hear it mellow.gif

SUZANNE VEGA LIKES BRITNEY’S COVER OF “TOM’S DINER”!

QUOTE
In case you did not know who Suzanne Vega is, she is the artist who wrote and recorded the original version of “Tom’s Diner”. A fan tweeted to Suzanne and asked if she heard Britney’s recording of the song. Minutes later Suzanne replied to the fan and said she did! Check out the tweet below:

Just Curious, @suzyv: are you looking forward to hearing @britneyspears's version of #TomsDiner? Also, do you still workout w/ Antonio?

I can't listen to it at the moment. What's it like??!

Posted by: J-o-e 24th April 2015, 09:37 AM

Sounds very robotic but still sounds like it will be great. The original bored me to tears so maybe I just am blinded by my love of Brit, hence anticipating this song so much.

Posted by: nickthenoodle 24th April 2015, 10:31 AM

Wow it sounds great! Doesn't really sound like Britney tho!

Posted by: mr_aly 24th April 2015, 10:55 AM

This is the definitive version of the original track, and it is a classic. wub.gif


Posted by: J-o-e 24th April 2015, 02:31 PM

Chorus..if you can call it that: http://vocaroo.com/i/s0bSJMuwaqb0
The bridge has leaked too but its not even her singing that part, its a mess.

Posted by: nickthenoodle 24th April 2015, 03:51 PM

oh wow oh wow I am living for this right now!

LEAK IN FULL

EDIT: Beaten to it kink.gif hope y'all are loving it - such a bop!

Love it, someone needs to hook me up with a download link...and a new site rnbxclusive has been blocked on my internet sad.gif.

Better quality here! http://www.josepvinaixa.com/blog/giorgio-moroder-deja-vu-2/

Posted by: Vülker 24th April 2015, 06:56 PM

LOVE it! I guess it helps "Tom's Diner" is one of my favourite tracks ever but this is very solidly my favourite Britney cover version after "The Beat Goes On". And TBGO is my second favourite Britney track EVER - "Breathe On Me" is life - so that's saying something.

Posted by: ✖ ketalina ✖ 24th April 2015, 07:25 PM

it's okay. it doesn't bring ANYTHING new to the original at all and kinda defeats the point of it.

It's production is different and there's an added bridge... I guess Britney wanted to respect the original hence why she went to Giorgio.

Posted by: Umi 24th April 2015, 07:55 PM

THIS SONG IS BEYOND AMAZING

Posted by: Umi 24th April 2015, 07:57 PM

I wish this was the lead single from the next album instead of 'Pretty Girls'.

well obviously the production is different but it's such a cheap and by numbers update i think, like when you take on an original song that got famous for being so unique (especially someone as legendary as giorgio) you need to make it your own but it's just a cover version that could be done without i think. like the song is exactly what i imagined it to be - extremely predictable

Posted by: Lee_J11 24th April 2015, 08:40 PM

Well this is a rather pleasant surprise...

Posted by: ▲Rob▲ 24th April 2015, 11:00 PM

I like it! A bit robotic, but hey it's Britney! biggrin.gif

Posted by: J▼hnkm 24th April 2015, 11:05 PM

It is a totally faithful cover, but I don't mind that because it sounds like they are paying homage to the original, whilst bringing it up to date. A full on overhaul would only have resulted in 'oh why did they change such a classic' yadda yadda yadda comments. But yeah, I really like it.

Posted by: Jonjo 24th April 2015, 11:29 PM

I see where Lew is coming from, in a sense. But I do like it! The production compliments Brit's vox so well <3

But this is Britney Spears; it's different for her.

Posted by: Euphorique 25th April 2015, 04:27 AM

I'm digging this actually. But I guess there's no room for 2 Brit hits at the same time these days

Posted by: Cody Slayberry 25th April 2015, 06:10 AM

This is officially GLORIOUS.

Only Britney would help me find the name of this classic that I thought 6 years ago was the song "Favorite Girl" by Justin Bieber ripped off.

Posted by: Jack 25th April 2015, 09:39 AM

I actually really like this, this is getting me even more pumped for Pretty Girls now wub.gif.

Posted by: nickthenoodle 25th April 2015, 09:41 AM

Could anyone please PM me a download if ya have it?

Posted by: Gage 25th April 2015, 10:06 AM

This is the first time I've heard the song in any format and I can't stop laughing at the lyrics. laugh.gif

When I first heard the clip it didn't even sound like Britney but the more I hear it you can kinda hear her voice.

Posted by: mr_aly 25th April 2015, 11:35 AM

It's more promising than the clip suggested, and I like it more than the Sia track.

She seems to have reverted back to true Robotney here though, but it is an enjoyable cover version.

Posted by: Neil 25th April 2015, 03:14 PM

I do prefer covers to mix things up a bit, so that's a little disappointing. However, honestly wasn't really all that familiar with the original and I am loving this.
Like others have said, it's very different for Britney and I like that.

Posted by: barbaric_dan 25th April 2015, 07:14 PM

Love it!

My only question is whats the link between the original Suzanne Vega version and Moroder? He didn't write or produce the original?

Posted by: ḇreakaway 25th April 2015, 08:40 PM

None. According to Giorgio, Britney approached his management in the hope of him being able to produce it.

Posted by: Nick F1 25th April 2015, 08:59 PM

idk i'm not delighted with that vocal effect.. he kinda ruined the song with that, same thing as William Orbit did with Alien..

Production wise sounds amazing and the way she doing thing is amazing!

Posted by: ḇreakaway 25th April 2015, 09:05 PM

It's only a Vocoder layer below her untampered vocal. It hasn't leaked in the highest quality yet. I personally am loving it. smile.gif

Posted by: Oricon 25th April 2015, 10:19 PM

jesus this is absolutely AMAZING. Welcome back Britney <333

Posted by: toxic_air 26th April 2015, 05:32 AM

I f***ING LOVE THIS. It truly sounds like it could be an original by her. Moroder's production along with her vocals! A new level of appreciation for her.

Posted by: barbaric_dan 26th April 2015, 01:22 PM

I only wondered why he wrote the middle 8

I wonder the same. A completely unnecesary bridge on a rather perfect rendition. I totally understand why she wasn't bothered, I guess she wanted to respect the original.

Posted by: barbaric_dan 26th April 2015, 03:32 PM

Its the only reason I assumed he had something to do with the original

I mean firstly Britney never does covers (unless its a tour special) and he seemed so intent on this middle 8 thats not even that interesting but it does suit the male counterpart more.

Posted by: Luciano 26th April 2015, 04:09 PM

There is actually no relation between Giorgio Moroder. According to the story, it was Britney who went to him specifically to record this song and he liked the idea.

Posted by: stars fade. 26th April 2015, 10:21 PM

I'm excited to hear this as I'm a fan of Suzanne's version.

GO THE EXTRA MILE FOR BRITNEY
"On my new album, Britney Spears wanted to do the Suzanne Vega song 'Tom's Diner.' The song doesn't have a big range, and I added a bridge and some instrumental stuff. Britney sounds so good, you would hardly recognize her."
Yet again, more PRAISE for Brit and her work <3

Posted by: barbaric_dan 8th May 2015, 09:12 PM

Sounds like shade to me considering how disinterested she sounds.

Posted by: ḇreakaway 14th May 2015, 08:17 PM

But he specifically said "Go the extra mile for Britney".

They've uploaded the audio to her Vevo channel!
