peterpaul&mary Posted June 21, 2014 #1 Report Posted June 21, 2014 Do you think Gimme More was the last single released that was the most daring or edgiest? I feel like Womanizer, Hold It Against Me, and Work B are all singles that still play it safe and we're designed for mainstream radio. What do y'all think? Share! Would you like Britney's next single to be something that doesn't follow the trends? At this stage in Britney's career, she should be able to do whatever the hell she wants! She's earned the right! If she wanted to release My Baby as a first single, then it should happen damnit!!!! Lol! 1
I Just Want More Posted June 21, 2014 #2 Report Posted June 21, 2014 I was gonna joke about BOMT at first but then I realized that it actually is the most daring because it's very risky for a 16yo girl to sing the lyrics "hit me baby one more time" 4
warioaddams Posted June 21, 2014 #3 Report Posted June 21, 2014 I think Gimme more and HIAM are her edgiest .... GM was dark, sensual and just different from anything she had released till that point. HIAM was different from anything that was released at that time and I think it was a risky single, plus dubstep was not that known on mainstream radio 2
Maria Spears Posted June 21, 2014 #4 Report Posted June 21, 2014 I think Gimme More and Slave 4 U with those breathing sounds back then it was like a big deal

While im a big fan of HIAM, it still think it wasn't as adventurous as GM. I do think that Britney and her producers try to do something different with every hit single. I think the lyrics of HIAM are not really that original I guess.
peterpaul&mary Posted June 21, 2014 Author #7 Report Posted June 21, 2014 I think Gimme More and Slave 4 U with those breathing sounds back then it was like a big deal Haha! In terms of sound I think GM and Slave 4 U were very fresh and original.
Galliano Brinni Posted June 21, 2014 #8 Report Posted June 21, 2014 Gimme more and slave 4 u GM for obvious reason, and slave literally shaved off her good girl image that made her famous completely. So yes it's kinda daring

tarotx Posted June 21, 2014 #10 Report Posted June 21, 2014 Slave for sure. Just the Slave connotation plus it's sound screams sex. It was edgy and risky for her. I don't think Gimme More is as Edgy risky as some seem. It's damn good but she already did Urban, dance and sex. And there is a catchy pop vibe underneath the dance pop. I think Toxic, Break the ice, Radar, HIAM and Work bitch all have edge and Risk. I'm not saying more than Gimme more but at the same level. Toxic has a very exotic sound for mainstream radio. HIAM Took dance and Grimed it up with Dubstep. Work Bitch is hard hitting EDM. Even the EDM masters didn't try to push such heavy sound to radio. I actually think Britney releasing a heartbreaking ballad (with Everytime) is in some ways more risky and it's edgy in it's own way because she's taking blame for her high profile relationships end. 1

Wow! Good points! Yeah I guess in some way every one of those singles are risky and edgy. I just think some of her singles cater more to mainstream pop music than others.

peterpaul&mary Posted June 21, 2014 Author #17 Report Posted June 21, 2014 Slave, IF U SEEK AMY, 3, Work Bitch No Gimme More?
peterpaul&mary Posted June 21, 2014 Author #18 Report Posted June 21, 2014 No Gimme More? I'm just mad at Work B for following the edm trend... But the lyrics are def something different!
Ariana Grande Posted June 21, 2014 #20 Report Posted June 21, 2014 To me, the most risky and edgy singles were BOMT, IAS4U, IUSA and 3. Gimme More was innovative, fresh and a trend-setter, but not risky.

Ariana Grande Posted June 21, 2014 #22 Report Posted June 21, 2014 Yeah I have to agree with you! BOMT, IAS4U, and 3 touch on more controversial subjects. Don't you dare to forget how freaking controversial If U Seek Amy was!
peterpaul&mary Posted June 21, 2014 Author #23 Report Posted June 21, 2014 Don't you dare to forget how freaking controversial If U Seek Amy was! Oh shoot. I forgot to add that. Don't beat me up. IUSA is one of my fav vids
