Back when Alanis Morissette covered Fergie's "My Humps," I thought it was funny. Now Australian pop star Sia has done a cover of Britney's "Gimme More", which comes to us via Underwire, and it actually makes me like the song a little more. Slowed down and made into a sweeter tune, Sia's song is less nightclub and more coffee shop. 
Despite its lackluster debut at the VMAs, Brit's "Gimme More" became an insta-hit. Its formulaic blend of upbeat tempo, enhanced vocals, and ear worm lyrics made it an unsurprising dance floor favorite. But, what if we slowed the groove down and made a love ballad out of it— would you want more of it? 
There's been a lot of speculation about Britney's latest hit song. Again and again, in a trance-like state, she repeats, "Gimme, Gimme More." More what? 
We didn't think we'd get to see Brit's latest video until next week but it looks like she couldn't wait to get it out there. It's certainly a great distraction from all the bad parenting press she's been receiving. We knew about the raunchy outfit and long dark hair but we didn't know about the clever lighting and camera tricks which almost make Britney come across as still somewhat sexy. 
Now this is more like it! The few leaked songs that were supposedly Brit's big comeback were not the real thing but now we finally have the new song and the question is, Is Britney Back? The song will definitely make you want to get on the dance floor and make you wonder what it will be like to watch her perform it in that old school Britney way.
