'Quicksand' and 'Trouble' are both fantastic - much better then what's on the regular album version.

I fuking love Phonography LOL for the quirkyness of it :D

OMG. This album = :wub::wub::wub:

 

9.3 | Womanizer

9.1 | Circus

9.2 | Out From Under

8.7 | Kill The Lights

8.6 | Shattered Glass

8.8 | If You Seek Amy

8.5 | Unusual You

5.2 | Blur

6.4 | Mmm Papi

6.8 | Mannequin

7.8 | Lace and Leather

8.5 | My Baby

7.7 | Rock Me In

9.1 | Phonography

8.7 | Quicksand

10. | Amnesia = :wub::wub::wub:

7.4 | Trouble

4.7 | Rock Boy

 

Average = 8.2 without Rock Boy, 8.0 with Rock Boy.

 

Fantastic album at its best, quite mediocre at its worst - REALLY tails off towards the end before a couple of good tracks (Lace and Leather + My Baby) save it. The bonus tracks are pretty damn great (I don't count Rock Boy as it's so obviously still got more work to do), and it's an absolute sin that Amnesia isn't on the main album. Amnesia for third single kthxbye.

Ugh, this tracklisting pisses me off. When it comes to my rating Circus will get a less than great review because Amnesia, Quicksand, Phonography, Rock Me In, and Trouble aren't technically a part of the album. D: Guhh, wtf at all of these bonus tracks being better than the actual songs on the album.

 

Still, not even close to Blackout.

I guess Rock Boy will be available as a bonus track off of a German download site.

I don't see the fascination with Amnesia at all, I think it's average at best :|

Based on what I have heard everybody say about the album, it looks like the tracklisting should have been:

 

1.Womanizer

2.Circus

3.Out From Under

4.Kill the Lights

5.If You Seek Amy

6.Shattered Glass

7.Unusual You

8.Mannequin

9.Lace And Leather

10.Amnesia

11.Phonography

12.Quicksand

 

Bonus Tracks: Blur / Rock Me In / Rock Boy

 

 

Eh?

 

Trouble is so immense. It's like a preview into how a Stuart Price-produced Brit album a la Madge's Confessions would sound. :wub:

my rate :P

 

 

9 Womanizer I kinda overplayed it but still one of my fave songs of 2008 :lol:

10 Circus can't wait to see this as WW #1 SMASH :w00t: I adore the song :heart:

9.6 Out From Under beautiful :wub: just beautiful!

9.3 Kill The Lights hooked on this for two weeks now :heart:

10 Shattered Glass might be a fave of mine (if I NEED to schoose just ONE) :P old school Brit meets new Brit :heart:

9.8 If U Seek Amy F-U-C-K ME this is great! :w00t:

10 Unusual You can't get over how good this song is :o :cry: :wub:

8.9 Blur love the vibe here ^_^

8.6 Mmm Papi sooo fun :dance: the mmm papa mmm papi part is my fave :lol:

9 Mannequin don't get the hate on this one TBH :unsure: yes it's a bit overproduced and you need to have the lyrics near to you to follow the song :lol: but it's such a great CLUB BANGER :dancing:

8.5 Lace and Leather - lovely, reminds me on some old school Janet..

9 My Baby nice and sweet ^_^

---

8 Radar Just because it was allready on Blackout :P

8.7 Rock Me In fun fun fun :cheer:

9.2 Phonography GREAT!!! Bloodshy and Avant are music legends :heart:

10 Amnesia why is this not on the regular version :angry: it's the question asked by most of the fans!!! myself included!!!

9.4 Trouble also could've made the album! love it! :wub:

9.2 Quicksand GaGa rocks almost as much as Brit!!! :heart:

---

6 Rock Boy not really into this TBH...might be just a demo and not confrimed yet to be a bonus track somewhere in this world ^_^ nice track tho!

 

so regular version - 9.3/10 :wub:

 

with the confirmed 6 bonus tracks - 9.6 :w00t: :wub:

 

also it's the first Britney album that I don't skip a track (yet) :o :wub:

AND ALBUM OF 2008 FOR ME!!! MOST LIKELY ONE OF MY TOP ALBUMS FOR 2009 TOO :lol:

Based on what I have heard everybody say about the album, it looks like the tracklisting should have been:

 

1.Womanizer

2.Circus

3.Out From Under

4.Kill the Lights

5.If You Seek Amy

6.Shattered Glass

7.Unusual You

8.Mannequin

9.Lace And Leather

10.Amnesia

11.Phonography

12.Quicksand

 

Bonus Tracks: Blur / Rock Me In / Rock Boy

Eh?

 

Then again, if those 3 tracks were the only bonus tracks, I'm sure we all might still be complaining! :lol:

I'd have included Rock Me In in the regular album

Ugh, this tracklisting pisses me off. When it comes to my rating Circus will get a less than great review because Amnesia, Quicksand, Phonography, Rock Me In, and Trouble aren't technically a part of the album. D: Guhh, wtf at all of these bonus tracks being better than the actual songs on the album.

 

Still, not even close to Blackout.

Agree so, so much :( Blur to Mannequin and Radar should so have been replaced by Rock Me In to Amnesia :arrr:

The review that compared Circus to sounding like Hard Candy is way off, the bonus tracks are amazing, I dont get all the hate for Rock Boy admitedly it certaintly is'nt the best but i quite like the whole Get Up parts, quite catchy.

Blur is VASTLY underappreciated! Can't believe people think it's dull, it's very sensual.

J'adore Blur!! I wasn't impressed on the first listen - it's not got the instant appeal of Circus or If U Seek Amy, but it's definitely a great song, but I agree, will sadly go hugely underrated, as might Lace and Leather, which I also think is great.

Absolutely LOVE Circus (the song). Haven't heard many of the others, but I think this is a great choice for 2nd single.

Oh and Johnjo, I think you'll love Out From Under, because you loved Everytime so much (I think it's you who loves it anyway) and OFU really reminds me of that. :wub:

Is Rock Boy the final version of the unheard Rockstar?

Really? :o :w00t: I really cannot wait for it now! but isn't it a cover? I have steered away form the cover coz I'm waiting for 'Circus' that much :lol:

09 | Womanizer

11 | Circus - Perfect.

07 | Out From Under

09 | Kill The Lights

8.5 | Shattered Glass

8.5 | If You Seek Amy

09 | Unusual You

09 | Quicksand

10 | Amnesia - Dear lord at this.

08 | Trouble

06 | Rock Boy

 

The production and vocals :wub: Excellent album with about 3 or 4 meh tracks. 'Circus' is probably my fave Britney song ever. Elated it's the second single. Max Martin = god.

'Circus' is well disappointing (the song). It won't be big in the UK unless the video is phenomenol, a la Womanizer. Album rank:

 

06.0 Womanizer

06.0 Circus

08.5 Out From Under

07.5 Kill the Lights

08.5 Shattered Glass

08.0 If U Seek Amy

10.0 Unusual You

08.5 Blur

09.5 Mmm Papi

00.0 Mannequin

07.5 Lace and Leather

07.0 My Baby

Bonuses:

07.5 Rock Me In

09.5 Phonography

09.5 Amnesia

09.0 Quicksand

09.0 Trouble

06.5 Rock Boy

 

It is THE most ridiculous case of wasted bonuses ever. 'Phonography' is straight from Blackout in style but still should've been included. 'Trouble' is so trancey that it'd be a total red-herring, but it could work nearer the end. 'Quicksand' and 'Amnesia' are heaven and an album full of them would be earth-shattering. As it is...

 

Circus (without bonuses) > 7.3/10

Circus (with bonuses) > 7.7/10

 

Vg.
