TTWE was a bonafide hit for Britney. Becoming a pilot light for her resurgence on dominating pop radio in the USA and still selling a considerable amount of units, in markets where she did not peak in the top ten. With that being said, lackluster promotional performances did not help ignite the original video into the highly acclaimed realm of her flawless music videos. The very videos that are responsible for a shift in pop culture. (Baby One More Time, (You Drive Me) Crazy, Oops... I Did It Again, Slave, Boys (one of the early pioneers of perfecting a green screen on a small scale), Toxic, Everytime, Womanizer, Work Bitch) IMAGINE THE 'FEMME FATALE' ERA WAS LAUNCHED WITH 'TTWE' AS A FIRST SINGLE WITH THIS MUSIC VIDEO BEING IT'S MAIN SOURCE OF PROMOTION. How do you see this changing the general publics opinion on her at the time? emTlUueoTKQ

tW4WvpWBboQ This starts so cringe... but, turns brilliant tbh.

I'd agree. But that's placing commercial appeal over quality. And I dont dislike radar, it's a bop. It's just a weaker bop in comparison to the rest of the album, for the most part.

It's because you are anonymous on Spotify. CLOSET LISTENERS. I'm looking at you frat boys. I know first hand that 'Work Bitch', 'Till The World Ends (remix)', BOMT, Toxic, Scream & Shout AND 3 are all on the SEC conferences workout playlists... but, not in OPEN sessions where fans come out. That's when they pretend to only listen to rap and country music. :') The south f***ed up in the head. :')

What does everybody that hates BTI love? Asking for a lisa frank picture I'm coloring.

I'm boycotting.

Or just tell bloodshy & avant to listen to the rest of the album again and understand their contract is rude to us.

Must be #1. I will riot.

Well stated.

RADAR?!? OVER EVERYTHING ELSE???

I'm it's sworn defender tbh

Lmao I voted make me and it's a tie again

Yes! Take a moment to appreciate her most underrated instrumental/ song in general yfppXeV-CpM Legit. If I ever get married I'd love for just this instrumental to be used.

2dKa0Q8lnjY Favorite instrumental of all time tbh. This, 'Gimme More' & 'Womanizer' are my holy trinity. But BTI wins

0We8rof7F3c Imagine this choreography set with one main back up dancer. The scene starts off black and white but flashes in drained color everytime the bridge and chorus hit. The main back up dancer is another Britney but a vintage version. During dancing there is chaos in the background. Paparazzi, fans, haters, etc. they are frozen in place watching the old Britney but she warms them up into forgetting about her and focusing on current Britney. During the break at the end they multiply to several versions of her and then come together as one to form the Britney we see today. Video ends with everyone freezing back into place as she exits scene.

The anime video was a great move considering the situation. She was at her peak with urban and alternative crossover in a sense that the general public was taking notice of how she released one of the best pop albums of all time while falling apart. She was getting noticed by indie critics and that anime video catered to an audience outside of her fan base norm. Gimme More, Piece of Me and Break The Ice were key components in the world talking about her music as well as it being a narrative for one of the most iconic eras in pop culture history. You compare the rest of her discography and it is indeed a Blackout in the sense there was no apologizing or watering down anything for mass appeal. And that's from 3 unpolished videos and Britney doing f*** all to promote. Her life was the music it's like an audio time capsule of a scary time turned into an authentic living performance piece.

Duh! :P That, the snake, the kiss, the breakdown are the 4 most iconic performances of the noughties. Hands down.

From two non fans that have a pretty good following on YouTube. And they were both children when the song came out. 24k5rQook_E 4lCDDDJB6p4 - ROLLING STONE -MTV It's f***ing perfect and it's miles ahead of half the list in my personal replay factor. 10 years later. Its a non fan favorite where I am... but, I have very dense urban fan population here. Break The Ice & Toy Soldier are ALWAYS listed as instant 10/10's. Across the board on genres, each single from Blackout is an appreciated and well respected piece of art from any pop culture fan enthusiast. It was well reported in the USA that 'Break The Ice' was the announcement of her comeback with circus, the end of the meltdown. It's more important than half the songs still on the list tbh. And really, who cares about its importance. That shit still sounds fresh as f***. And is one of the very FEW songs I'd truly call flawless a decade in. The lyrics are some of my all time favorite. "You ain't gotta be scared we're grown now", "heart beating like an 08".... I guess that's it. IMMA HIT DEFROST ON YA

Break The Ice is superior to every song that's been listed so far, imo. The music speaks for itself.

Yesssss!!! I'm responsible for about 10,000 of those. I've been playing it everywhere and if other people aren't playing it, I make them. I got new rules. AMCAMDAM

f*** YO PRIDE AND THIS STICKY SITUATION.

Jk. I love y'all. Vagina is gross tho.

I could have been getting you two confused tbh.

You think everyone is low key bi tho
