WHY THOUGH???

[LiaLovesGodney]

Let's not pretend people flocked to watch it because of her great vocals and the meaningful lyrics. Her (most likely fake) "bad" vocal stem leak brought some attention to the song. Which is a good and bad thing.

[Caroline77]

The song is amazing but the vocal production is really bad, i hope it's the last time she works with Antony Preston, he sucks.

[nanananana]

That moment when you realize that moment never happened.

[hyoga]

I like the song like a lot it would have been a great song with the right production

great lyrics nice melody just needed that little extra push but it's one of my favorite song on BJ

[Nathan]

Meh, I think it's an average filler and good opener. I honestly don't see what's so impressive about it.

 

It's different yes but amazing no. Doesn't lead anywhere but has a good meaning.

[David]

I do actually still listen to Alien on a pretty much daily basis so yeah, it's one of the stand outs on the album.

 

It would have been a lot stronger if it had a bridge though. And the whole glitch/autotune drama ruined the song to me. 

[JoshLee]

It is a good song

I hate to burst your bubble, but the only reason it got 3.3 Million views was because of the raw vocals leak

Lots of fans made a big deal about "how bad" Britney Jean was, just because it wasn't Blackout. They said the same with Circus, and Femme Fatale. Britney Jean wasn't the best, I'll admit it, but it wasn't that bad neither.

I was so excited when the album came out, because, I thought this era (the Vegas era) was going to last so much more than other eras, so I thought it was going to have more singles than any other, because, you know, it's the current era, they have to take advantage of the current album, and they have to keep Britney current in the music scene. That's why I always thought BJ tracks had a lot of potential to have at least a moderate success as singles. Each track is so different, that they could have release half of the tracks as singles and it wouldn't bother  GP, because they could have appealed to different audiences: Alien, the Britney-ish track, ISBE and TIG, something more dance and they could have done great in Europe, HOT or DC for the ballad lovers, NTIFY as the happiness anthem, Passenger, something more mystical yet catchy, and Tik Tik Boom for the ones that love the sexiest side of Britney, all of them different from Work Bitch or Perfume. I know many could say that BJ doesn't deserve too much singles, but it is the latest album, and her team should have taken more advatange of it, and just 2 singles was so wrong anyway. Even Blackout had 3 singles besides the lack of promo.

Alien is great, and the rest of Britney Jean too :dealwitit:

[btmyhbrit99]

I feel like the fan reaction online and the fact that the album didn't sell much and her focus shifting to Vegas is pretty much why they didn't move forward with single 3. Had Jordan over there on flopsheavy not made a big deal about those most likely altered vocals on Alien they may have considered releasing the song to radio but since that happened and went sorta viral Team Britney said "Nevermind, time to move on", which could probably be why she went public with the fact that she's working on B9 even though it's no where near coming out it seems.

[Nostalgia]

I've always loved Alien.  

[Alycia]

Wait, what ...   ... People are only just realizing this now?!   .... THAT'S SO SAD. Alien is amazing!!

 

 

And I've been on a HUGE Britney Jean kick lately. I've kind of fallen in love with it all over again. Listening to it right now, actually.

[Babydoll]

FLAWLESS SONG TBH    , It's such an emotional song, the music, the production and Godney's voice created magic

[Brian.TheDog]

It is a good song

raw

 

[Ari]

I really like the lyrics but not the production... 

And I cringe every time I hear the 'glitch' in the middle of the song... 

[Richie]

I've loved it since the demo leaked, probably one of my favorites by her from her whole career and my favorite one along with work bitch from BJ

[JoshLee]

raw

[Everytime]

Favorite Britney song of all time... even my family likes it. Britney's team missed out BIG time tbh.

That moment when you realize that moment never happened.

that moment when you realise you're in danger girl gif is very appropriate in this situation? Slaylien is extremely amazing!

[TheCharmedTributes1]

It's an amazing song! I feel like Alien is lyrically the closest she ever came in talking about her breakdown in music... I love it!

[MadDennis]

I have to agree. It'd be a great single though.

Do you know what would be a good promo for B9?  An Alien Video. It would be really unexpected, and everybody would have something to talk about. Also it could be really personal, but dark at the same time, It would be the end of BJ and the start of a new ERA...
