I was torn between Slave and Overprotected Remix. And I chose Overprotected because I like its pink vibe more

I kept having to tell myself it was for video, not song. Slave and overprotected are such equals to me. So hard!

I choose Slave bc of the choreography and I was obsessed last week with the uncut dance scene

 

And I just can't believe I voted for Gimme More instead of Do Somethin'

I concur; I love the production and storyline for HIAM, it's honestly one of the most creative, meaningful, deep and dark videos she's ever done. The dark undertones and symbolism are even more interesting because they're juxtaposed with so much color and hectic energy. Unfortunately, Britney herself was far from energetic and appeared lost.

Slumber Party is pretty much the exact opposite; she looks alive, engaged, energetic and is dancing very well. She's much more reminiscent of ”prime Britney” in this MV than she has been in years. However, the storyline is cliche, unoriginal and frankly doesn't convey any deeper meaning beyond ”I'm hot.” 

And now I can't even remember which one I ended up choosing.

That honestly doesn't bug me, after all, nearly every movie we see has a stunt double in place of the main actor for some parts. As long as it's not obvious, it’s no problem for me. My main issue with HIAM is that when the actual Britney is, in fact, in the MV, she doesn't seem like Britney at all. It's almost like her charisma disappeared entirely for parts of FF. And as fans, we all grew up with her being the most charismatic person both on stage and in videos, so that abrupt shift was jarring.

Slave and Slumber Party 

HIAM is a mess and Overprotected is not as iconic

That's the thing! In HIAM it's just so obvious !  

That's true, you can see in the video that she seems very stiff too, with her arms and hands along her body ! You can see that she is not comfortable at all!

Done!

Slave ***** all the others.best music video ever.

I can't believe Gimme More and Do Somethin' have even lasted this long... then again they were't put up against the best other videos, I mean Oops, Stronger, and Womanizer were out the first round 

[LostInAnImage]

@storm Sorry if this is a stupid question (highly likely), but I'm addled with a fever and lack the ability to process things. So anyway, here's my question: is BOMT still in the running? I don't see it anywhere, and that possibility makes me sad since I personally believe it’s tied with ”Toxic” for her best MV ever. In fact, without BOMT I doubt we'd even have Britney Spears as the Princess of Pop, much less ”Toxic” itself.

I know, but even so, I think ”Sometimes” clearly deserved to win over GM. I honestly think people were voting based upon the quality of the song, since GM is arguably one of her best singles and is a fan-favorite. But as much as I love BO and its lead single, objectively, the MV itself is lacking in every possible way, from lack of choreography, to minimal and uncreative storyline, to terrible costumes, to the monotonous scenes (she's essentially repeating the exact same 2-3 moves in the same exact spot for the entire video). That result blew my mind, even though it was nearly 50/50.
