It would have been just as interesting in English. The interesting thing is the sound not the language that she cant speak.

You're making too much of her French, like yeah its not great but its cute and I think it adds to the track as much as the production. Like why does that bother you so much? The french people appreciate when people at least attempt to learn their language regardless of whether or not they butcher it so it can't be a matter of like principle lol

Because people have different tastes? What works for one person doesn't for others for me it ruins the track. Some people love liar and other people hate it... preferences you know.

Glory is a true masterpiece next to In The Zone! Truthfully, I was amazed with Glory. I was expecting another overautotuned club banger robotney and instead we got exactly what I've always wanted from her since In The Zone. Glory is the one album that I don't skip any of the songs.

Same... its still fresh to me and i listen to it every week :carpoolney:

Side note, i think its funny that shes done 9!!! albums and the most of the time people is like "i still listen to ITZ and BO tho" .. ITZ, BO, ITZ, BO.... like come ooon BO is SO overrated imo, its an amazing album... but to me, far from her best, that would be Oops, Britney, ITZ and Glory, then the rest after those... :yeahsure::bparty:

Why couldn't they have someone that truly knows French guide her pronunciation and diction? http://www.frenchsounds.com/index.html https://www.youtube.com/user/frenchsounds/videos

Some of the words (in Man on the Moon and Coupure Électrique) were totally butchered or incomprehensible. The Spanish bridge in Change Your Mind (No Seas Cortes) sounded better, but was spoken by another vocalist, right?

It's no big deal, though, and it's good that French is getting some exposure.

Didn't she get a French lady to help her translate Coupure Electrique because she wanted it in French. Pretty sure it's one of her poems or whatever. It's a progressive, actually interesting track that also serves as fanservice, there's your Blackout 2.0. 

Glory is obviously slightly trend chasing, when you're working with the current IT writers it's obviously going to sound similar to other stuff, and there's no problem with that. Especially when it's good escapist pop music. 

What You Need, Liar, Clumsy and Private Show help give the album personality. Her vocal personality is all over the album. It's eclectic but also similar. It's a very good pop album. 

Britney isn't avent-garde she makes pop music. She's the last of her breed of popstar and she's content having fun, making music she likes then putting it out there and moving on. I can't believe people are moaning she did more promo for In The Zone lmao. 

My biggest issue with it is that in her good vocals are hidden in the background on songs like Love Me Down and Liar etc. 

 

Also, I don't like seeing people use the word "cancer" as an adjective. That's hideous. Stop it.
