Britney tells it like it is..........2002-08-27

Disrespect her no more!! This has GOT to be my favorite Britney song ever!! Who can help dancing to this? And the lyrics...wow! I didn't know she had such creativity in her. The thought of ditching her previous producers and releasing the "DarkChild" mix only was a step forward in Spear's career. Even though Rodney Jenkins recycles effects from Brandy (hear "happy" from her album, "Never S-A-Y- Never" it's still great. The a'capella like background of edited noise from Brit as well as the catchy chorus go along nicely together. She has now told the world what she wants. I didn't know there was so much she had to deal with when she was little...and what great way to tell it then thru this song! If you liked this one then I also reccomend her single previous to this "Not A Girl, Not Yet A Woman." Another personal tale with good lyrics. This song recieves an A+ from me.

Why Did They Edit the Thunderpuss Remix?.......2002-06-21

First of all, skip the track "Overprotected." It's a whiny, self-absorbed declaration of independence written by Swede Max Martin. Instead, go directly to the Thunderpuss remix of "I'm a Slave for You." This track, originally produced by the Neptunes, gets a highly energetic treatment from Chris Cox and Barry Harris. Unfortunately, I still can't totally recommend this CD on the strength of the Thunderpuss remix, for it is only the edited version. I would have eliminated the boring "interview" and instead made room for the full-length remix. Britney fans will lap this up, but casual listeners should make a U-turn and avoid.

Overproteted (Original) CD-Single!.......2002-06-03

This was a good cd! I like the songs "Overprotected" and "Slave" but the Overprotected remixes wern't as good as the "Slave" Thunderpuss Remix. Overall cool cd, nice cover!

Nice CD.......2002-05-06

This was a good choice for a second single. The remixes of 'Overprotected' aren't as good as the 'Darkchild' ones, but the 'I'm A Slave 4 U' remix is awesome. :=)

Should Have Been Better.......2002-04-25

Britney could have put in a little more effort in this single. OVERPROTECTED is a great song, but the JS16 Remix & Dub are sort of annoying - plus she doesnt really sing at all in them & it has all these cranium cracking rhythms going on at the same time that just make you get a bad headache, i mean bad. The interview is a waste of CD space, i hate it when she talks because she is sort of boring to listen to. I'M A SLAVE 4 U is the song i like the least, when she pops a bad word + the drum beats in there are disgusting. But the Thunderpuss Radio Mix is pretty good, i can make an exception on that one. And the Enhanced CD Section has the trailer of "Crossroads" with her singing a performance of Overprotected during all the outtakes are showing. Sort of a boring Trailer/Music Video. Don't waste your money on this one. If you want more of her buy her album BRITNEY which is what you call SO much better.

I Love Britney Spears...but not "Rock 'N' Roll".......2005-09-23

If you listen to the LIVE version off her Britney Spears "Live in Las Vegas" DVD that's a worthy cover of the Heart classic. But the studio version comes off too slow and boring if you ask me. It needs more pump, more energy, more attitude...all that lacks from this version. Britney Spears can sing, not with Mariah Carey or Whitney Houston (but she has a unique sound), but too much of the time I find myself going CMON!!

I Love Rock 'N' Roll [Import] ~ Britney Spears.......2005-04-07

This is an atrocious song, but Spears makes it much better. Joan Jett can not sing all that well, Spears on the other hand does it justice and turns a really bad song into something that is quite good. I love what Britney is wearing on the cover and she looks amazing as always. She is such a tallented artist...

One...maybe two good songs. The rest is crap.......2004-12-29

The "Overprotected (Darkchild Mix)" was really the only reason I purchased this, because my Now 10 CD broke and I didn't have enough money to buy another, and I found this at a much cheaper price (probably because it's only a single). I found one more song that I kinda liked, and the Darkchild Mix that I had wanted. The rest I could careless for.

1. I Love Rock & Roll [Album Version] - D+ Very poor remake of the Joan Jett/Heartbreakers version. I guess you can take it or leave it.

2. I Love Rock & Roll [Karaoke Version] - (no grade really, I don't have a karaoke machine)

3. Overprotected [Darkchild Remix] - A+ Really the reason I got this single, because my Now 10 broke (sad face), and there was no other way I could get it.

4. I'm Not a Girl, Not Yet a Woman [Metro Remix] - B- It's an okay remix, not one of my favs though.

5. I'm a Slave 4 U [Thunderpuss Radio Mix] - F Horrible remix! Plus, I'm A Slaue 4U is such an overrated and stupid song!

6. I'm a Slave 4 U [Miguel Migs Petalpusher Vocal - see #5

7. I'm Not a Girl, Not Yet a Woman [Spanish Fly Dub Mix] - D Although I love this song, the remix ruines it.

Overall Grade - D If the remixes hadn't ruined it, it would have been an awesome single, but I guess you can say only buy this if you like the Darkchild Mix or I Love Rock N' Roll (which mostly everyone should hate considering it's a horrible remake). Stay away!

Worse cover of an awful song.......2004-07-10

Joan Jett's original version of "I Love Rock'n'Roll" was without a doubt one of the worst songs of the 1980s. Her atonal, pseudo-macho vocals were one of most amelodic things ever to be heard on radio - though naturally with Australia's insatiable appetite for pseudo-macho posturing, it topped the charts here.

Now, teen-pop star Britney Spears, in a vain effort to make her image more mature, does a cover of Joan Jett's awful song - and makes it even worse than the original. It sounds as flat as the original did tuneless and atonal, and Britney carries no more feeling than Jett at any time.

Don't get either this cover of the original. Stay as far from pseudo-macho posturers as from teen pop.

ONE OF BRITNEY'S BEST SINGLES EVER!.......2002-08-07

I can't say that I'm a huge Britney fan, but this single makes me want to be one! Britney's cover of 'I Love Rock N Roll' is surprisingly effective, and her voice gives this legendary tune a softer edge. But my absolute faves are the remixes! They make buying this import totally worth while! The Darkchild mix of 'Overprotected'is awesome, with its funky, and edgy, R&B groove. It's not your normal remix either. It's the original pop-sounding song made into an awesome hip-hip anthem! If you are like me and don't like 10 minute long remixes, this remix is for you! The Metro mix of "I'm not a girl..." has a bit of a Spanish-flavour to it with a fast-paced, acoustic-sounding guitar leading this flavourful remix, which is of average song length (not a tacky 10 minute long club mix), and equally as enjoyable as the 'Overprotected' remix. Love her or hate her, this single by Miss Spears' is excellent, one of her best, and worth the extra cash!

Could have been better.......2002-08-26

Don't get me wrong; Overprotected is a great song, one of her best in fact. It's just the weak extra's that bring down the rating of this CD for me...The JS16 remix is well....awful. It's really boring, and doesn't even include all the lyrics. The only real good track on here is Overprotected. The reason it could have been better: The Darkchild Remix! The Darkchild Remix is a much better version than the original, it has such a unique and cool feel to it...but they ignored it. A great CD, but not the greatest.

mmm... ok........2002-03-30

Britney's special European single 'Overprotected' from her latest album "Britney" is a very serious song. "Overprotected: Track 1" Is probably the best track on this. The JS16 remix is really bad. It only says part of the chorus and repeats it over and over again. I wish they would have put the american video version as they play on Mtv's TRL It is a really good remix video {I think} by Jazzy Jim (who remixed her "Crazy"). The JS16 Dub is just a short instrumental of the JS16 Remix. If I were you, I'd just buy the Overprotected/I'm a slave 4 u England single because 1) It's cheaper 2) Contains The 3 tracks on this one and last 3) Has a special interview, I'm a slave for you (Thunderpuss Radio Mix) and (Album Version). It would be better if it had the "Overprotected" Video but thats on the "I'm not a girl" single. Buh-Bye

(You Drive Me) Crazy (The Stop Remix!) [CD/Video] ~ Britney.......2005-04-07

Crazy is a typical Spears track with great vocals, well written lyrics and top notch production value. Spears is a very tallented and beautifull woman and this single is no exception. There is so much to like about to say about this track that I will simply say that it is stupendous.

Britney Spears Overprotected single with interveiw.......2003-10-26

A must have for all Britney Spears fans. Its great to collect all different remixs / versions of Britney's songs.

1)album version - 3:18 - This is a great song with a strong beat. 2nd single released from the album 'Britney'

2)JS16 remix - 6:07 - This remix is very different from the original song. It is mostly Beat with a few repeated lyrics.

3)JS16 Dub - 5:24 - This remix is fairly similar to the JS16 remix, but has a stronger beat and less lyrics.

4)interveiw - 6:12 - Britney is asked questions about her music and writing songs etc.

Overprotected - Britney finally tells it like it is!.......2003-02-01

In January 2002, Britney Spears released her 10th single Overprotected. It became Britney's 9th Top 10 UK single, peaking at No.4. The song was a surprising return to Britney's trademark pop roots; after the R'n'B funk of her last single I'm A Slave 4 U, many people thought she had fully turned her attention to that particular genre of music. Overprotected, however, proved this scenario to be incorrect and gave an indication of what a diverse (in musical terms) album Britney was, her self-titled third release. It's not surprising - considering the way the song sounds - that Overprotected was written and produced by Max Martin, the guy behind most of Britney's other massive hits such as Baby One More Time, (You Drive Me) Crazy, Stronger and Oops!...I Did It Again. Overprotected begins with a section where Britney is whispering about what she needs; love, space, herself etc. A man then goes "Action!" and the song begins. "Say hello...to the girl...that I am," sings a confident Britney, addressing all those critics who still think of Britney as a little girl. The song has a very futuristic beat to it with a complex bassline to it. The lyrics are very personal about Britney's life and feelings, yet are somewhat forced in their way they want people to see her. This is not a bad thing, however; Britney has now successfully made the transition from Pop Princess to a mature adult in control if her life and career.

The video to Overprotected - to me - is not very good. I was rather disappointed with the end result because Britney usually makes such amazing videos - Stronger, Boys, I'm A Slave 4 U, (You Drive Me) Crazy are all examples of this. The video seemed a bit rushed and could've been a lot better! Yet again, this is another essential Britney Spears CD single because of the extra tracks. Track 2 is Overprotected (JS16 Remix). A lot of people have complained about this remix, saying that it is a total load of rubbish. I for one have to disagree. The song has a very powerful beat and whirlwind, breathy vocals. This said, it is definitely not Britney's best remix ever. Track 3 is I'm A Slave 4 U (Thunderpuss Mixshow Edit - The Remix). Now this is what I'm talking about! Everytime I buy a CD single and one of the remixes is by Thunderpuss, I go insane. All his remixes are so lively, funky, fresh and original. This remix is no exception. The beat is superb, the lyrics are often repeated which makes the song even more raunchy and provocative than it already was in the first place, and the bassline is phenomenal. Clocking in at more than 6 minutes, this remix will have you dancing for sure! So all in all, Overprotected is another essential Britney Spears CD single for your collection - buy it now from Amazon.com!
