Womanizer (for the vid)

What are yours? I'd do a poll too but there's just too much brilliance to do it justice.

The peerless majesty of Toxic, of course! No poll required.

So many people say that. I'm really not a fan, probably in my bottom 5.

Britney possibly counts as a guilty pleasure, so some people might not want to admit liking some of her stuff, whereas at least polls are anonymous.

I don't care though. Lucky is my favourite. It talks about the downside of her strength of celebrity, but in a non-mawkish way. Piece of Me is also good for similar reasons and its dark humour (and I also like the strange chicken noises that are insterted into it).
Living life in a gyratory circus kind of way.

That's well funny. Wish I could understand more of it, though. And since when has Jeremy Clarkson been a vocalist and dancer? ;)

I've never got this really. If you like something you should never be afraid to say so, no matter what the tastemakers say. Who's to say what's cool and what isn't? If you're afraid of admitting you enjoy Britney then you don't deserve to listen to her and will be first up against the wall when the revolution comes. Which is tomorrow if my plans come to fruition. Or maybe next week. It's soon, anyway, I'll get back to you on that.

I'm not afraid to admit that hating you all is now a guilty pleasure of my own. Britney Spears? Purlease.

My only hope is that this thread is somehow a Big Ironic Joke that I didn't get.

It's OK, Matt. We're all friends here, no need to pretend you don't love a bit of Britney.

I'm glad to say I've never had to listen to anything by Britney or similar, as there are no kids here.
I can stay with R3 - or Classic fm as tonight the former is infested with opera. :geek:

If it is, then 'macaroni' would suggest there's little to write home about in his gentleman's area. :shock:
