good evening! i had a lovely day off today – i got to see spring awakening for the 2nd time – i’ll be doing a post on how sitting on the stage played out! right now we’ve got a leak – a brand new britney spears track has hit the web – kill the lights which is off her upcoming album circus dropping on her birthday december 2nd (i’m quite sure the whole album will be leaked soon…keep your eyes peeled) it’s a fun and upbeat track that speaks to brit’s often contentious relationship w/ the paparazzi (except for when she was dating lame ass adnan ghalib – we all know she was totally out of her skull when that all went down…) i do like the track – it’s a decent follow-up to womanizer…although it almost doesn’t sounds like ms. spears – her voice definitely was tweaked out to the max – have a listen for yourself below (plus i posted the lyrics) popbytes over & out for now…xoxo
