what do you think, guys? shes looking sober now. and shes getting poor for all of the chaotic stuff happen last year, so shes gotta work. do u really think shes gonna sell records succesfully now? her last album is so underrated. its waaaay better than any pop album released that time. its waaay better than madonna, justin, nelly, and timbalands album.

Briney Spears is completely devoid of anything that could be mistaken for musical talent.

Let's face it: Ms Spears, in the state she is now, is a high-risk investment for any record label.

 

[neverover]

but lets not forget her debut. she was one of the most hardworking girl in the business. 25mil copy for debut? thats hard to top. maybe she can bring her old self once again.

Hope not, and not...forever....

I am still waiting for the punch line!

That's a testimony of not how good her album is, but how bad the current state of pop music is.

I could care less.....sorry

 

[fatcat28037]

She was gone? where'd she go? Have I missed something?

 

[Zarathustra19]

If she comes back, I will continue to avoid her music like the plague. Its nothing but trash backed up by a crazy fan base consisting of girls who hate their own bodies and boys who just discovered girls and want to oggle another. (though now she's got more of a Ms. O'Conner kind of look going anyway; bye bye half of fan base.)

If she has anything of merit, there's always the internet. Then make profit from shows, becoming a tour, then going back to business as a tool for her mother to live out fantasies with.

The musical talent, if any, generally lies with the producer. The performer is usually a puppet with a voice that can work a stage alright.

Hard to top, yes. Even harder when she's not being prodded by a momager. Meal ticket for her parents, prepared for mass marketing by Disney, Lolita'd right on up for sale...yeah, that's a great way to get going.

Now, I have dead opiate addicts to go listen to, so I'm off for my fix.

Or, in her case, a puppet who can lip-synch on stage to pre-recorded vocals that have been pitch-and-rhythm corrected in the studio. We are getting very close to the point where it will be commonplace for "singers" not to sing at all. Milli Vanilly (or however they spelled it) were way ahead of their time.

In a world where pop music is simply another word for marketing, actual talent is an annoyance that producers would rather do without.

Forgive the nitpick, but for it to make any sense at all, it's I couldn't care less (which is true for me as well... why did I even click on the link? Better than doing work, I guess). Saying you could care less means you care to some degree, blah blah.

I thought the fuss over the lip syncing in the Olympics opening ceremony was funny considering how much lip syncing is done in pop music

Who cares?

Unless she comes back as a **** star, she will remain totally uninteresting.

(somehow I can see that coming)
