Good Points
Well produced
Bad Points
A weak comeback
General Comments
So, after much media attention for various crimes against style, losing the plot and basically everything but her music; the queen of trailer trash has decided to make her comeback. Gimme More is the first single from Britney Spears' forthcoming album Blackout and is released on October 9th 2007.
So, has Britters still got it? Well, it's not a bad pop tune, however the chorus lacks that general punchiness and ability to embed itself into the innermost depths of your musical memory (whether you like it or not) of her stronger work. The word 'gimme' is used far too much and although the beat is commendable, the overall track is a bit of a slow burner that doesn't really do much to complement at best, mediocre vocals.
Overall, a probable fan pleaser and definite top 10 hit; but just not big enough a song for a comeback. Sorry Britney, but you may have lost your touch.
