Don’t Go Knockin On My Door is everything. Could have been a moment.

Should have been a single instead of Don’t Let Me Be the Last To Know!! 

DLMBTLTK was a perfect 4th single, a ballad after uptempo OIDIA and Stronger and midtempo Lucky 

And you know how much Britney loved that song (idk if she still does)

But as a 5th single I would prefer DGKOMD instead of WUSIWUG, as someone said, it's too similar to OIDIA 

DGKOMD is not very far from that but still further🤷🏼 

 

And I don't understand why they only released 4 singles for such a HUGE era, there should have been at least 6 singles

Why would they release a carbon copy of “Oops” as the fifth single? I mean, it’s a cute song but it’s literally just the Walmart version of “Oops” (the song) with a slight rework. If they were going to go with a fifth single that era, “WYESI” or “Walk On By” made the most sense. That Max Martin formula gets tired after awhile.

How you dare

The only logical reason is the fact that they were already pushing the next era through. There was only 6 months from DLMBTLTK to I'm a Slave 4 u. I mean artists who release 6-10 singles per album have eras that last like 3 years

Yes, it makes sense 

I wouldn't have a problem with 3-year Britney's era if that would mean more singles and more videos but I understand they wanted to release those albums quickly to get that coin

Can’t make you love me would have been epic.

Satisfaction would have been the logical bridge in sound between Oops and Slave though. It’s  a nice contrast to the Max Martin Oops/Baby/Crazy sound and the lyrics were a bit more mature, which would transition smoothly into Slave.

Flop fan 

[Sgt Spears deputy]

Satisfaction

Don’t Go Knockin’ On My Door 

What U See Is What U Get

One Kiss from You

Where Are You Now?

Can’t Make You Love Me

Girl in the Mirror 

Walk On By

[LaLisaManoban]

Where are you now, for sure! One of her best ballads ever!

Can you imagine a live performance of this song?! 

[Arwen]

WUSIWUG simply because i always wanted a version without that answering machine message attached.

I dont know that a fifth single would have done well tho. Music was beginning to go to an edgier urban pop sound by the time it would have been released and nothing on Oops really had that.

Wouldn't have made sense, it's a fantastic song but after stronger it would've flopped because it's the same perfect sense would've been don't do knocking at my door or any of the oops UK editions like walk on by or heart.

That moment when you realize it’s Fe on the other line when as a child I thought it was a fellow girlfriend of Britney’s

Very fair points. DLMBTLTK is lovely but I don't think it really works well as a single imo. What U See was RIGHT THERE!!!

I have to say I agree. I like WYSIWYG but it’s very similar to Oops and I’m glad she went for something different.

I mean, it’s clearly a male voice though… you’re probably referring to the ending of don’t go knocking on my door, it does sound like a younger voice!!
