Britney Spears hits up her fave tanning salon Epitome in Bel Air, where she stayed for almost an hour on Wednesday. Brit kept things interesting by wearing mismatching…

(Source above) Anyone heard of this song?

Probably some made-up rumor?

The real question is why does this site look like it's still 2007

Omg I remember that Cry song! It was literally everywhere in every rumoured tracklist for blackout, and I think we’ve even got a “description” of the song at some point lol

I wonder if it was part of the scrapped sessions with ne-yo?

Ooo how interesting I never knew this! We need a deep dive on what this song was!

Whoever comes first to say that Cry is Rihanna's "Good Girl Gone Bad" album track is lying. I've seen lots of people trying to say that was the track Britney was supposed to perform/record, but it wasn't.

That Cry rumor was strong though, I wonder if that song exists or not.

i thought about that but rihanna's cry came out months before the rumours started.

i reckon it was from the sessions with ne-yo as all the songs were very personal, sad and about britney's life/situation at the time, which led to them being scrapped

well brit sure does

Maybe only a false rumour like when they said that in the street scenes of Gimme More video she was recording a video from a song named Get Back (and was Gimme More).

I recall rumors about the song, something about it being a very raw emotional song that would surprise people, but since I've never heard of it again (it seems that's popular opinion at least) I think it was probably fiction 

[asitalian12587]

could just be made up or maybe it was an alternate title for "why should i be sad"? different vibe for brit, talks about personal things with kfed, etc.  IDK grasping at straws here.

Cry by Rihanna?

This is not real. That song has no relation to Britney and Frankie Storm confirmed this was for Rihanna.

Britney was a big fan of Solomon Burke. She remade his hit song “Cry to Me”. Here’s a female singer’s take on his classic. 

 

Lyrically it speaks to so much of what Britney was going through with KFed. Shame her version was never released.

I remember reading about the song it was called Cry but also refer to as tear. I read an interview back in the day where they spoke to to a producer I don't remember who was involved with the recording of it and they spoke briefly about her vocal prowess on it and how it was a very beautiful song. This is the deep cut that I have always hoped would surface.

She recycled the song in 2013,

Didn’t Britney once said to a fan this song was her favorite unreleased track during a M&G?
