Womanizer (Britney Spears) vs. Single Ladies (Beyonce)

if you seek amy is fun, even tho it sounds like a polka jig

'if u seek amy' is the only circus track which really attains that druggy, lurching splurge which i loved about blackout - HA HA HEE HEE HA HA HO - most of the others try very hard to deliberately recreate it and wear that hard work heavily

"unusual you" best song on new record by a mile imo

If saying "If You Seek Amy" is better than "Womanizer" counts as repping for it, then yes.

also massive lolz at it being a single

this is insanity

this is easily my favorite "Single Ladies" imitation video of them all

see more slivs

i heard "single ladies" at the market the other day, and it still sounds like something you would sing on a farm

???

actual lols

what kind of farm tho? im curious

i dunno dude, the ol' mcdonald kind

"dude"

You're weird, Ramzi, but I totally get what you mean. It has that annoying major key lilt usually used to make kids "enjoy themselves." Ugh.

At least Womanizer could be a Kraftwerk song.

u get what i mean becuz i'm right. the opening lines are clearly hoaxy like a happy meal toy. it was like, intended. i just don't love it.

<3

xpost, yes, I'm agreeing with you. I loathe it.

Still fucking great!

^^^for surm

i was wondering what to do if like it but didn't want to put a ring on it. according to google i could:
• put a label on it
• put some cheese on it
• Put A Donut On It
• rolled need on it (note: no idea what that means)
• Put Deez Balls, Deez Nutz On It

single ladies by a mile, though Circus would make it a tougher competition

Posts like this are why I love Surm soooo much.

circus was such a disappointment

the right answer was womanizer imo. and if circus were in the running that would be the WROOOOOONG answer.

i think the eric h. comment way upthread is pretty otm.

would've voted for womanizer. single ladies annoys the shit out of me, i know exactly what surm means about the farm thing.

wtf ppl, single ladies is brilliant, womanizer is hot garbage

single ladies is brilliant if you like being hit over the head with a huge cartoon hammer

single ladies is decent, womanizer is p lame

this is the most retarded poll of all time

i can't even remember how "womanizer" goes

ramzi's farm revive is top 5 ilm revives of all time

it goes

Womanizer, woman-womanizer, you're a womanizer,
Oh womanizer, oh you're a womanizer, baby
You you you are, you you you are
Womanizer, womanizer, womanizer (womanizer)

lyrics of the year

i'm not even that huge of a "single ladies" fan but post-blackout britney spears is seriously some of the most cynical and worthless pop of the past few years

single ladies is brilliant if you like being hit over the head with a huge cartoon hammer

Womanizer, woman-womanizer, you're a womanizer,
Oh womanizer, oh you're a womanizer, baby
You you you are, you you you are
Womanizer, womanizer, womanizer (womanizer)

the repetition in womanizer is the best part, along with the buzz-heavy synths. as i've always said, womanizer burns like a stick of dynamite. yes, i've always said that.

repetition is often repped for in other contexts.

just admiring the juxtoposition there

I don't get a 'hammer to the head' from Single Ladies at all - it has a well-defined verse, and yea the chorus repeats a bit at the end, but no more than any other pop tune. Womanizer (even though I like it to a degree) is monotonous from the jump, and far more guilty of a sledgehammer to the forehead affect. Even the verse blurs into the rest of the song.

the falloff after blackout for britney is pretty shocking.

well, i think "single ladies" has an explicit "hammer over the head" moment, and it's that bleepy sound effect in the beat, which i happen to think is awesome

but i understand what ramzi is saying, also i think his defense of "womanizer" is a good one

yes, i see that rev :) but i wasn't talking about the lyrics -- i think the single ladies beat and production are what make it so belligerently bouncy.

yeah, thank you jordan, that's what i meant.

"single ladies" is more like, idk, getting hit in the head by a hen party.

"womanizer" isn't terrible but don't think i'd notice if it had suddenly never existed, two years on. there was some ok stuff on circus though, as cynical and rote as it was - "amnesia", "kill the lights", um.

getting hit in the head by a hen fap

the falloff after blackout for britney is pretty shocking.

it consists of one hastily-released rush job put together to take advantage of her medication working! i don't think any given britney album indicates a "direction" per se.

"amnesia" is really good though, it sounds like a pre-blackout demo they found lying around

it's also not that bad a falloff. plax, you were particularly ready to be let down by that album, i think. circus had a few major clunker moments, but it also boasted some awesome trax.

just to refresh our memory

1. Womanizer
2. Circus
3. Out From Under
4. Kill The Lights
5. Shattered Glass
6. If U Seek Amy
7. Unusual You
8. Blur
9. Mmm Papi
10. Mannequin
11. Lace and Leather
12. My Baby

at least 7 of those are good-great.
