Advantages: It's all her hits in one CD, what can I say !!!

Disadvantages: The new tracks aren't that amazing...

So... this is Britney's fifth album and I must say: this album has proved that compilations are a mine of gold. This album features almost all of Britney Spears' singles, plus 3 never before released tracks!!! Here's a track by track review:
1.-My prerogative: This is a cover of Bobby Brown's same- named song, and I tell you, this one's better. It's a dark song with great sound effects. It doesn't show the best of Britney's voice but this is her new style of music.
Fans will love it. Score:4/5

2.-Toxic: From her fourth album, this song stands out from the whole. It makes you wanna dance and again, the persistant sound effects are great. A real masterpiece. Score:5/5

3.-I'm A Slave 4U: A very agressive, sexy, hip-hoppy song REALLY makes you wanna turn the music loud. However, the hard-breathing during the whole track seem to be unnecessary. Score: 3.8/5

4.-Oops!..I Did It Again: An old one that has still its charm. This song represents Brit's first two albums music style. VERY poppy and bubblegum, yet sassy. The only problem is the computarized voice: it hides the singer's skills. Score:3.8/5

5.-Me Against The Music featuring Madonna: This one's very dancey: put it in a party and let it begin! Plus, Madonna is there so there's a cool voice mix. Score:4/5

6.-Stronger: Here we go with the digital voice again! It just hides her talents...Anyway, this song's great! Why? 'Cause here's a bit of our old, poppy, girly Britney! Score:5/5

7.-Everytime: This is a beautiful, lovely ballad which shows off Britney's composing and vocal skills,but it gets boring after the second time you hear it. The lyrics are beautiful I'm telling you. Score:3.5/5

8.-...Baby One More Time: Britney's first single, it still rocks! I just love it:poppy, sing-along and fun. Simply great!!! Score: 5/5

9.-(You Drive Me)Crazy-The Stop Remix!-: Another of Britney's hits, no question why. It's dancey, coy, bubblegum, fun, sticky and sing-along. You'll learn the words the first time you hear it. Score: 4.8/5

10.-Boys-The Co-ed Remix featuring Pharrel Williams: this one is not that good. It`s very hip-hop, and it was made to dance. However, Pharrell's participation was wasted, and the whole track is VERY repetitive. Score: 2.5/5

11.-Sometimes: A very innocent song, yet very sticky. This one will make you sing you want to or not. Play it on a long trip and time will go as fast as wind!!! Score:4/5

12.-Overprotected: This is like the third girl power song in the album but this one stands out. Its chorus will keep in your mind for days, it will make you dance and sing, and I have to mention the great sound effects here. Score:4.3/5

13.-Lucky: You won't like this song at first, since it's VERY repetitive but give it a chance: its lyrics are beautiful and she seems to be singing about herself. The award-ceremony part is awesome. Score: 3.8/5

14.-Outrageous:This one's VERY agressive and hip-hop, it will make you dance for sure. You will learn the words inmediately but for the wrong reasons: they're hollow, and they seem to talk about her sex-appeal the whole song. Score:3.7/5

15.-Born To Make You Happy: This a very deep-lyric, beautifully vocalized, lovely, and sticky ballad. One of the best songs in the album and in Brit's entire song body. You'll be singing its chorus for weeks. Score:5/5

16.-I Love Rock 'N' Roll: Another cover, I feel this song like hollow: only guitars and drums are played. However, I must mention the great disc-scratching work present in the song. It fixes the damage a bit. Score:2.8/5

17.-I'm Not A Girl, Not Yet A Woman:This song isn't bad, not yet good. It`s a masterpiece, but you'll enjoy it because of its lyrics. Score: 2.5/5

18.-(I've Just Begun) Having My Fun: This one's just like the last one. Not good or bad. And I must say the lyrics ara awful: "nonsense talking" are the words that come to my mind when I listen to this song. Score:2/5

19.-Do Somethin': The last song of the album, this one's pretty good enough. The only problem is that in some parts she sings so fast that you won't understand a thing. Good enough, I'd say. Score: 3.2/5

To the end of the album, I just felt satisfied and I wanted more, this album`s just great. Fans wil love it, and the other people will,too, I`d say they'll buy the other Brtney's albums. Go and buy it now!

Summary: Great compilation and good enough new songs. Go for it now!
