That’s just the Oops version with a lowered pitch. Someone was gonna leak it as they had the version but they didn’t unfortunately. The original version had a different orchestral arrangement and was re-worked by Max in 2000

5. Shock Your Mind

Interesting. All this time I thought that the whole Shock Your Mind thing was a bunch of horse**** but I was going through Twitter earlier and I saw this tweet which includes excerpts of an interview she gave Tiger Beat in 2001 where she literally confirms that the album was originally titled Shock Your Mind

My best guess is that she may have recorded a song with that same title in late 1999 and the name stuck with her after that to the point that she decided to use it as the name of her next album, kinda like how Avril Lavigne's Let Go was named after one of the first songs she recorded when she got signed

Yep there’s definitely a song called Shock Your Mind, I presume it didn’t fit on the Oops album and was re-purposed for the new album. Then when the whole crossroads soundtrack album blend thing happened, it probably got scrapped.

WHATTTT this is such a good find! All this time I thought it was just a rumour. While a good album title I think just calling the third album ‘Britney’ made the most sense.

Interesting...

[princessmimi]

Wow this is so cool!

I cant believe she was gonna name the album Platinum 2000,

im glad she didnt cause that would've been dated af

Sunflower was cute but it didnt fit Britney

[MissSpearsSaysSo]

This would have been so cool. Fuc king Bop!  

[nwonder]

I rememberMTV news Europe (when that was still a thing) initially announced the oops album would be called Dear Diary and I was like...

 

And wasn’t Shock your mind the original title for Britney 

[RedBloodedWoman]

Hopefully “Shock Your Mind” surfaces. It probably won’t though, since it’s so old & recorded during the DAT days. My bet is it’s probably a Max track that’ll only escape the vault for a an unreleased compilation (that’s been long overdue for ages) or posthumous record (that THANKFULLY won’t be happening anytime soon).

[ICouldntThinkOfOne]

"That its just so typically me...." 

 

I can hear that.

 

It's so interesting that the original vision for the album was gonna be more ballady and lush.

Justice for Sunflower

[femmepop]

omg I totally remember hearing or reading in those teen magazines back then that her next album after oops was gonna be Shock Your Mind and I remember being ready to have my wig snatched. I remember thinking "oooh sounds so edgyyy 🤘" I was SO excited for whatever it was I wrote it in my diary: "Britney's next album comes out on November 6!" 

it is crazy to think (as Jen from WNTTAB podcast pointed out) that this album and Dream Within a Dream tour came out only months after 9/11. 

anyway love hearing about weird things that could have been. it's kind of hard to imagine Oops being anything else than it was  

I wish I could remember some of the rumored things I read on those fansites when I was younger but my poor brain is fried

I recently discovered that Sunflower was a complete separate album from Oops, and the whole album pretty much got scrapped and they restarted, minus a few songs

Yep, but it appears that it was a unused track from Oops and then was going to be the title track for the next album.

Wait what? Do you have any evidence/proof of this? Or tentative tracklistings?

The only song that could make sense being called "Me" is Overprotected and even thats a reach.

[popprison]

I remember reading the Sunflower thing in early 2000. I think it was a USA Today article
