Britney Spears - Radar (not Unusual You)

[acidburn]

This is apparently gonna be the 4th single released from "Circus", following Womanizer, Circus and If You Seek Amy.
I thought that "Kill The Lights" or "Shattered Glass" would have been the next release. But this one is actually growing on me, quite different and slower than the previous releases, what do you think.

[Toy Toy's Boy]

I really, really like the song but there are so many songs that would make better singles: Kill the Lights, Shattered Glass and Out from Under particularly.

Easily my favourite track on the album

[Smurfie]

Is this for the UK? A fourth single is a bit brave - I thought the days of four singles off an album were over (Rihanna not included) - especially as the third off Circus is not going to perform as well on these shores as expected, as the hype just didn't seem to keep up.

I would have personally gone for Shattered Glass, however. Either way, if it does happen, she better get a move on with it as the release will miss her UK leg of the tour and miss the better part of promotion that she does over in the UK for the single.

Her Facebook says Radar will be the next single

[Smurfie]

I love Radar - but thats crazy. But then that cements my opinion what a waste of time Blackout was - when she could have waited a bit longer and had the whole Blackout & Circus material, and got rid off the chaff, to make one great album.

I heard a rumour that the reason why Radar is being released and the fact that it's on both albums is because Jive Records were contractually obligated to do so when the producers gave to it Britney - it was on the condition she'd release it as a single.

I think that's stupid, why wasn't it released during the Blackout era, as the 4th single after Break The Ice, It just seems stupid releasing it now and pointless, maybe it could be released as a double a-side = "Unusual You/Radar" maybe....just a suggestion

I don't see the point in a 4th single i doubt it will help album sales much.

That's not the official Artwork of the cover, is it?

[ManicKangaroo]

The pic I posted is the official artwork, yes (for the US anyway)

Bit tacky, not keen. Not sure how the song will do

[Smurfie]

So, they are switching back to the previous album and the previous albums artwork theme as well, rather than follow the Circus theme? Though, if I am going to be honest, both cover artworks (as above) are awful.

Considering Amy scraped Top 20 despite its "controversy", this would be lucky to be Top 30.

The pink one looks a bit like "Toxic" which is funny since "Radar" sounds like someone trying to rehash said song.

[yeahyeahtron]

Heard it on the radio today and what can I say? The usual Britney with her ear scratching voice... Should have stopped with the 3rd single which by her standards was decent!

[Wanderlust]

Very by the numbers. Good production, nothing that makes my jaw drop and bow down to her though.

[Thor]

I never liked Radar the first time round.

[Becca]

I love this song!!

[S1m]

Can't see it making the top 20, although I'll be happy to be surprised.
