Should The Original "Boys" Track Been A Single Over The Co-Ed Remix?

The vision was to give half Britney of what fans and the public were used to from the previous two albums, and the other half of songs showcase Britney as more mature and becoming more of a woman and growing up.

The deep reason the sums all of this is that the label didn’t want to pay for a crossroads soundtrack so “Britney” was used to also promote the movie. 
 

So that’s why half the album sounds like a club banger and the other half a personal diary to represent her character Lucy from crossroads.  
 

Britney did write a lot on the album so this quite frankly is her most personal album

No, I love everything about the co-ed remix. I thought it was such a cool vibe and Pharell is one of the only feat. that I find usefull on any of her songs. 

I loved how they made the era and album more fun by adding good remixes that matched her style and maturity better.

Absolutely loathe the Remix, the album version sounds like disco track of today, with not one but TWO amazing bridges.
