Personal Opinion: I Am Sick of the Selen Gomez Comparisons

JLM sounds like Good for you tho. It's not a bad thing, it's a great song, i even said i wanted a "Good for you" for Britney, now we have it so im happy.

It's the trend right now anyway so yeah it will sound similar, especially considering it's the same people who worked on it. Like it or not it IS a similar sound and you can't deny it unless you are deaf. But doesn't mean it's the same or that she copied Selena or whatever, there is no shade saying it sounds similar.

There's no shade in saying it sounds similar but there's shade in calling me deaf.

I guess you never listened to any of Britney's music 98-08 because the current Bieber/Selena songs have elements of the electro-pop Britney's made a signature in her career - those cat meow/vocal pitches in all these songs sound like elements of different Britney classics, remember those cats floating in space in the bridge of "Break The Ice"? Apparently not.

And I think "Just Love Me" sounds more "I'll Show You" and "Good For You" sounds more like Selena's attempt to be Lana Del Rey

It is true that some songs like Just Luv Me sound like Good For You, but I think that comparison is really unfair because to me Revival actually sounds like it was inspired by In The Zone, like, we all were saying that GFY sounded similar to Breathe On Me when it came out, so we could say that Britney is basically exploring the sound that she's always wanted to retake now that it's become popular!

I don't think JLM sounds like Good for you other than the snap sound... I actually think it kinda sounds more like Bieber's "Sorry" but that's just my opinion.. I guess we'll be able to better judge when we have more than just a snippet to listen too
