The use of Spanish and French in some Glory songs...

[PerfumeGuy]

Britney sings in French in "Coupure Electrique"

Spanish is used in certain parts of "Change Your Mind (No Seas Cortes)"

In "Man on the Moon" she also says some things in French.

Does Britney know Spanish or French? Do you think there is a special reason for the use of Spanish and French in some Glory songs?

cause it's very @Artsy Fartsy

She clearly doesn't know French! She used to say she was bad in Spanish back in high school and even in Stage: 3 days in Mexico, she kinda struggled to learn simple stuff like "hola como esta"...

[ViciousVixen]

she's been all over the world, Im sure she picked up a thing or two, and honestly, I think she was just exploring genres and things musically, I don't think it's that deep. 

[ImSoCurious]

Because she's never done a French song before 

[Britneybbhmm]

Idk

 

[-Brit Brit-]

Because she's multilingual queen 

 

[Arnold.]

because she's an artist and likes to experiment. she's had some spanish influenced songs, it was bound to happen. as for french, she wanna be **** in another language. maybe thats why

[Catalin]

I love Coupure Electrique. Her broken French just adds to the charm.

[SomeoneGimmeBritney]

She might have picked up a few words here and there on her travels and she might have studied one of them in high school. I'm not American so I don't know what languages are taught in US schools. Would Spanish be the most popular language taught there? I love Coupure Electrique and I don't know why people are slating it. French is probably hard to pronounce with a US accent.

When will your faves? 

[OverprotectedLukey]

She has spanish inspired songs(The Hook Up, Before The Goodbye) and she's fond of french language, plus she done it so she could perform better in France and Spain.

[Mantequilla]

She just wanted to try something different with that. She's clearly not good at speaking other languages, but it was still very cool.

The only "spanish inspired song" she has is Mmm Papi. The Hook Up is inspired by Jamaica and the caribbean. There's nothing "spanish" or hispanic in it. And Before The Goodbye, I'm guessing you're including it because of the guitar, but I still don't see the influence.

Mmmm Papi 

[dasho]

maybe she's going to release them as exclusive singles in france and spain/mexico/latin america

no because she is terrible at singing/speaking french (to be fair, it is one of the toughest to sing)

 

[Noname2022]

The only thing she says in Spanish is no seas cortes tho and her French is so cute, but not very good if you speak the language

Neither of those songs sound Spanish. I always thought The Hook Up sounded more Jamaican and Before The Goodbye is just a normal pop song, although it has a guitar intro. A lot of songs of the early 00s had something similar. Whenever I think of Spanish influenced pop music I tend to think of the likes of J.Lo or Shakira. I do like a lot of JLo's songs and some of Shakira's. I couldn't listen to a full Shakira album but I loved some of her singles. Whenever Wherever is my favourite Shakira song.
