| Britney Spears must be glad to see the back of 2007, when her personal life seemed to slide into meltdown, although she made a welcome return to the top three, with Gimme More, the first single from her Blackout album. The track rebounds 63-43 this week, while follow-up Piece Of Me darts 69-46 on download sales, a fortnight ahead of its physical release. Britney’s double whammy helps Blackout to return to the chart at number 65 on sales of 7,771, taking its nine week sales tally to 114,557. |

I believe they are but not sure. The extended version of Why Should I Be Sad is actually quite nice!
Lucky Star - January 1, 2008 05:10 PM (GMT)
I'll download them then :wub:

Is the Break The Ice remix good? Britney usually has great remixes.

No, it's the same thing. The intro is kinda different.
Mats - January 1, 2008 05:18 PM (GMT)
It's basically the same songs. They've just added 10-20 seconds extra.
I think the intro for Why Should I Be Sad is doing a lot for the song as a whole.

Thanks for singles/album chart performance info Lucky Star! :)

POM is actually doing pretty god so far.

It is. And the remixes are all really good!

Well it seems to be holding the album up in some countries including the US.

There's a *rumor* floating on the net that Radar is the next single. Nothing confirmed yet, though.

If that's true, I'll kill myself.
Mats - January 2, 2008 03:27 PM (GMT)
At first I didn't like Radar that much but it's grown on me. I wouldn't mind it being a single.
Lucky Star - January 2, 2008 05:36 PM (GMT)
Every song on Blackout has single potential :queenbitch: the B-Sides as well.
At the moment, I'm loving it more than ever.

henZ - January 2, 2008 06:02 PM (GMT)
What, even Freakshow? I think not.
Get Back should've been the next single, had it been on the album. So sad.
Lucky Star - January 2, 2008 06:03 PM (GMT)
Yeah, only Freakshow is the only "not so good" song on the album. I used to skip it, but now it grew on me.

'Omg that Britney's shameless'
Police called to Britney's house
Police have been called to Britney Spears' home in a dispute involving her children, officers have said.
The call involved a "family custodial dispute that we are trying to resolve peacefully by court order", according to police spokesman Jason Lee.
Officers were called to the house at 2000 local time (0400 GMT) and no injuries were reported.
The 26-year-old singer and ex-husband Kevin Federline are wrangling over custody of their two young sons.
Lee said Spears was found under the influence of an unknown substance and footage appeared to show the singer being taken out of her home on a stretcher and put into an ambulance.
The pop star's lawyers filed a court motion earlier in the week asking to be relieved due to a "breakdown" in communication with their client.
Federline has temporary custody of their children because Spears, who has limited visitation rights, failed to comply with court orders.
The two were married in October 2004 and divorced in July 2007.

The news footage is disgusting... all the fire engines and a helicopter! WHY??
No wonder she goes insane!
GimmeSomeRiver - January 4, 2008 09:35 AM (GMT)
I never thought I would actually see her carried out in a stretcher. Just.... I'm shocked.
*Superstah* - January 4, 2008 11:51 AM (GMT)
Whats up with her? is she ok now?
