Yes, some of Brit's new music is trashy (looks at 3) or trash (also looks at 3) but this one is tolerable.
Plus, watching the video enhances it. I love the bridge where she comes out looking like an upper class Marilyn Monroe.
To get down to the lyrics though, Britney's saying "don't hate me" while saying that all of the boys and girls want her in bed.
Obviously, we all know that by now but the video plays sometimes at MTV Hits so I thought I'd put my own review in for it.
Nothing compared to 'Baby One More Time' but it's still catchy with the la la la, la la la la la's and the "Oh, say what you want about me" parts.
3.5 stars.
This is Britney's fourth single for her album circus. This song says "If you seek Amy", but clearly means F-U-C-K me. It is one of the better songs on her album. People need to get over the whole lyrics double meaning thing. It's an awesome song.
Presenting her best song since Toxic, Britney Spears never fails to surprise me with the next outrageous thing she's going to do next. In this case, the title/chorus could be attributed to Britney spelling that pesky F-word. In fact, I've heard censors that cut that whole section of the chorus out... Kind of ridiculous, but contrevorsy aside, this song is insanely catchy. Whether that's a good thing or not, make your own decision, Britney puts up a pretty decent effort here.
"If U Seek Amy" is Britney Spears' latest "naughty" song. Some parents have argued that if you follow the title closely (and it's the chorus too),it's Brit using bad words. But are the kids THAT bright? It's not like they're doing word puzzles with Will Shortz on NPR.
"If U Seek Amy" is about "how all the boys and all the girls want to be with Amy." She even uses the Christmas carol refrain of "do you see what I see?" It's got a good beat,but other than that,it's lousy disposable bubblegum pop.
Hidden message of nothing but truth lying beneath a fierce beat and a seductive set of rushed la la la la's. Just the fact of it being so cleverly titled makes this song amazing, aside from the storyline it follows of looking for an alleged `Amy' yet displaying the views she holds of herself. This track speaks nothing but the truth, no matter what goes on, Britney will always be at the top of her game, regardless if its some crazy rumor, an album out, she will always succeed at it, just look how Blackout was released at her worse and still was well received and has even been labeled as the best album in her career for crossing over to a new sound and taking pop to a different level. Love her, hate her, she'll always be the amazing entertainer she is, and, well, we all must admit, we all want to "seek Amy" with her.
