Be thankful Godney acknowledged the language, France is officially a country now. You're welcome.

1% of her fans speak French, so who cares if her enunciation is perfect?

Well I mean what do you expect Britney prob learned French just for this track and some of it might be due to the flow of the song 

[Benjie]

She sings in french with a spanish accent, it would have been better with her english accent.  

But i still can understand what she says so...whatever.

Song is good.

You guys realize the entire point of the song is that she CANT speak german? "I dont speak german but I can if youd like" She then makes up words that SOUND german. Its the entire point of the song. lol

You litteraly made an account just to say this

Sérieusement, vous avez compris les paroles de vous-mêmes ? Je déchiffre encore. 

I am forgetting the outside world when you make, make love to me, love to me | x2 | J'oublie le monde quand tu fais, fais-moi l'amour, moi l'amour

Like blackouts | Comme des coupures électriques

I am forgetting the outside world when you make, make love to me, love to me | J'oublie le monde quand tu fais, fais-moi l'amour, moi l'amour

...Love to me | ...Moi l'amour

A moment with you, in the dark | x2 | Un moment avec toi, dans le noir

Like blackouts | Comme des coupures électriques

You are the light | x2 | Tu es la lumière

I am forgetting the outside world when you make, make love to me, love to me | x2 | J'oublie le monde quand tu fais, fais-moi l'amour, moi l'amour

Stop bullshitting. I'm a native speaker, and she sounds better than 80% of the non-french-speaking Americans

Which is not saying much, though.

[MaPlayz]

I so love this song ... I almost died when she said "electruikkkkkh".. her accent is seriousy the CUTEST thing and endearing AF

[me.against.the.b00ty]

French has many different dialects, Canadian being one of them, I'm not trying to drag you but theres a possibility that the French you've studied is Canadian French, not a whole lot different from "French" French BUT there are many differences, as well as in other Francophone countries

You dont learn French Canadian in school. French Canadian is Quebecois which is not what I speak or can even understand. 

The point Im making is the pronunciations are off, better than what other Americans could do or not. You cant say they're not. Now if it was intentional to be cute, ok fine. I still love the song. 

My critique of the french is in the most loving way possible.

Don't know if you meant to quote me or not but yeah I think any french speaking person can agree that her enunciation isn't the best 

But the song still slays 

[TyWalker]

WTF did you expect. Perfect French from someone who most likely hasn't learned much/any of the language?

She tries something new like everyone wanted, and there's always some who immediately make fun and drag her down

Im not trying to drag her or make fun of her. I think the song sounds amazing, it just wouldnt take a lot to ask a French speaking person if 'monde' is pronounced 'mond' or 'mond-ay'

Still gonna bop to the song dont get me wrong

[spreadmywings]

I know. I love that track but her french is but who cares? it sounds iconic anyway. Maybe next time she takes some more lessons in french. Here for more songs in french, spanish and who knows in italian and portuguese too slé experimental britney
