Britney Reviews:
BT is the best!!! 
2004-01-02 - this version of her "Britney" album is a good one. my favorite song on it would have to be "Before the Goodbye". BT did some of his best work on cowriting and producing the song. it is the best on the whole album.
Britney... Not What I Expected..... A Bit Tarty

It doesn't make sense... 
2002-11-28 - I had heard the original album when it first came out and thought it was much more mature than her previous work but there were still those damn m.martin songs that really hold her back from being the next Madonna. I think it would have been awesome if she relied on more overseas producers for this album. Btw I heard she is doing that for her 4th album- Guy Orbit and one of Kylie Minouge's producers are rumored to be working on it.
Slave 4 U is good but it would have been a nice hidden gem if it wasn't a single at all. Most of the songs are good- Cinderella and Bombastic Love are just..bleh. Cheesy pop, she would have definately been better using I Run Away, Before the Goodbye and When I Found You.
I Run Away: a very nice song. ok vocals- It sounds like she's gasping for air some parts but it's not bad.
Before the Goodbye: HER BEST SONG- hands down. This should have been a single, if not the first single off of the album. It starts out like a trip hop, if your not familar with that listen to Craig David. Great vocals on this. The song just gets faster and faster and it could have been a great radio & club hit. BT is awesome. I could see a bright future for her if she goes in this direction.
When I Found You: Nice beginning, sweet lyrics, nice vocals. It's kind of odd but it works- it sounds like it has Asian influence so maybe that's why she thought it would be better in Japan, or wherever she released it.
Overall I hope Britney listens to her fans because the unreleased stuff is what will introduce her to a more mature audience. Britney, plese no more Max Martin songs- you can only tolerate that staccato piano background so many times.
The bonus tracks are the best ones on the album!
2002-06-14 - I think it's a shame that the BT-produced tracks on this album were not included in the US release. It's definently worth the extra money to have these tracks - they are among the best of Britney's work and I think even people who don't normally like her music would enjoy these songs. BT adds a mature, techno feeling to the tracks he was involved in, and I think those songs exhibit the best of what Britney's music can be.
All Britney fans must have!
2001-12-31 - This CD is the 14 track Australian Import version of the US 12 track Britney CD. It includes two songs not on the US version: "When I found You" and "Before the Goodbye." These are two of my favorite songs on the CD and definitely should've been included on the US version of the CD and everytime I listen to them I can't figure out why they weren't included. "When I Found You" is a beautiful ballad.
The song "Before The Goodbye" reminds me of N'SYNC's "Gone" at the beginning. The rest of the song sounds like a Destiny's Child type of song-it's got slower parts and faster dance music parts. It's a great song. This CD is a must have for any true Britney fan.
