Britney Spears

2007 was the year that Britney's Blackout album came out.  This was also during the time where she was in the press a whole bunch and everyone was giving up on her when they shouldn't have been.  During volume 4, I put in all the songs and added a small section so my friend and I could read into the messages she was trying to convey from the songs.  Here are her song (lyrics) and our interpretations of them:

Gimme More
.
 [Spoken]
It's Britney Bitch
I see you,
And i just wanna dance with you

Everytime they turn the lights down
Just wanna go that extra mile for you
You got my display of affection
Feels like no one else in the room (but you)

[Bridge:]
We can get down like there's no one around
We keep on rocking, we keep on rockin'
Cameras are flashing while we're dirty dancing
They keep watching, keep watchin'
Feels like the the crowd was saying

[Chorus:]
Gimme Gimme more
Gimme more
Gimme gimme more [x4]

The center of attention, even when we're up against the wall
You got me in a crazy position (uh huh)
If you're on a mission (ooh)
You got my permission oh

[Bridge]

[Chorus (x4)]

[Spoken]
I just can't control myself, more
They want more?
Well I'll give them more (ow!)

[Chorus (x4)]

Gimme more gimme more
Gimme more gimme more babe
I just want more

Gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme [x4]

What's your meaning?
Chels: to me it's Britney's negative cry for attention. It's like her saying "the only way I know how to make people understand how I'm hurting is to say/do nasty naughty things."

But, you know, I've been at a dance club, and I get so into it that I actually find I get sexually aggressive.  It's passion!  So, I see both sides.

Bo Bita: The more obvious meaning of this song is about sex.  Well duh. But to me it means that this girl and this guy are fooling around on the dance floor and she feels like everyone is watching them dance around and turn each other on.  But I think it means that she FEELS everyone is watching when who knows if they really are or not.  Also, she wants to do more than just getting down on the dance floor. =)
