Britney Spears, ballads and autotunes...

I just recently discovered this song.



Released while pregnant with her firstborn Sean Preston in 2005, everyone would agree that this song really captures the emotion Britney must have felt as a would-be first time mother, which all mothers could relate. And everyone would agree, as well, that she's just effortlessly absolutely gorgeous and serene, an image hardly associated with Ms. Spears throughout her career.

This song did poorly on charts, and to this moment I still don't understand why it's her dance beats that have done very well. In songs such as Baby One More Time and her latest, "I Wanna Go", she uses a lot of autotunes and lipsyncs when she performs the songs live, for which she receives criticisms. I don't get it. Britney needs to promote more of her ballads, which she really shines in.

Speaking of memorable Britney ballads, I can only name one: Everytime, released in 2004.

Also, a little off-topic, I think you've all heard that Britney's ex husband Kevin Federline (henceforth referred here as Fed-Ex) is expecting a baby with current girlfriend Victoria Prince, a retired volleyball athlete. This is to be Fed-Ex's fifth, after Kori and Kaleb (with ex fiancee Shar Jackson), plus Sean Preston and Jayden James (with Britney.) What the world may not know is that before dating Victoria, Fed-Ex dated porn star Kacey Jordan and the relationship resulted in a pregnancy - which Kacey terminated. Kacey is the youngest of Fed-Ex's baby mamas at only 23 years old (Shar is 35, Britney is 29 and Victoria is 28), but she's the most sensible. Girl knew better than to have a baby with a douchebag like Fed-Ex!
