Before Kill the Lights...it was a Blackout.

Yes we know this cover is hideous...whatever move on
While the rest of the world marvels over "Circus" selling over 500+ thousand copies to become #1 on the Billboard Top 200 charts...

"Blackout" Brtiney's previous album that was released October 2007, has re entered the Billboard Top 200 at number 198 (no doubt thanks to the "Britney Boost" from Circus' release). Selling 5,000 copies just last week.

"Blackout" was infinitely a better album than "Circus". Blackout showed Britney working with cutting edge producers willing to push her into a edgier sexier experimental place, while "Circus" has Britney running back to a safer sound of old more akin to "Oops I did it again" era music.

For all you "Blackout" Lovers out there..expect to see many songs from that album performed on "The Circus Starring Britney Spears" this coming March when it launches. Britney herself has stated she cant wait to support songs from that album so it will "feel like tons of new material" on tour.

For those of you who havent purchased "Blackout"...go get it. It's 9.99 somewhere in the world. The whole album flows and you never wanna skip a track, it will keep you moving.
