The Best and Worst Love Advice From Britney Spears Songs
Britney Spears turns 34 today, and we have to wonder — is she listening to her own hits and dancing it out to celebrate? Britney's lyrics have taught us about love and relationships: some good and some bad. I took a look at Brit's hits and distilled the not-so-deep yet still entertaining advice contained within. Here's the best and the worst advice courtesy of Miss Britney Jean Spears (or her songwriters, at least).
Bad: We Should Get Down in Public
Song:"Gimme More"
Lyrics: "We can get down
Like there's no one around
We keep on rockin', we keep on rockin'
Cameras are flashin' while we're dirty dancin'."
Good: Sometimes Enough Is Enough
Song: "Stronger"
Lyrics: "Hush, just stop
There's nothing you can do or say, baby
I've had enough
I'm not your property."
Bad: It's OK to Be Totally Dependent
Song: "Hit Me Baby One More Time"
Lyrics: "Oh baby, baby
The reason I breathe is you."
Good: Womanizers Need Not Apply
Song: "Womanizer"
Lyrics: "But no way I'm ever gonna fall for you
Never you, baby
Womanizer, woman-womanizer, you're a womanizer."
Bad: Bad Boys Are Addicting
Song: "Toxic"
Lyrics: "There's no escape
I can't wait, I need a hit
Baby, give me it
You're dangerous, I'm lovin' it."
Good: Find New Ways to Spice Things Up
Song: "3"
Lyrics: "Merrier the more
Triple fun that way
Twister on the floor
What do you say?"
Bad: Don't Worry About Jail Bait
Song: "I'm a Slave 4 U"
Lyrics: "Baby, don't you wanna, dance upon me,
(Are you ready)
Leaving behind my name, my age."
Good: Cut a Poor Guy Loose
Song: "Oops . . . I Did It Again"
Lyrics: "I made you believe
We're more than just friends.
Oh, baby;
It might seem like a crush,
But it doesn't mean
That I'm serious."
Bad: We Can Be Crazy Together
Song: "Hold It Against Me"
Lyrics: "You might think that I'm crazy
But you know I'm just your type."
Good: It's Hot to Take Charge
Song: "Circus"
Lyrics: "I'm like a performer
The dance floor is my stage
Better be ready, hope that you feel the same."
