 'Sinlges Collection' Flawed, Overpriced November 23, 2009
Antoine D. Reid (Durham, NC United States)
38 out of 44 found this review helpful
The music speaks for itself; Britney Spears is, despite the ups and downs and tabloid moments, a fixture in the music industry. She's perfected the pop realm with such iconic hits like "Baby One More Time", "Stronger", "Oops! I Did It Again", and "Womanizer". What's best about this collection is that it features the songs released as singles from her first album through the 'Circus' album. As a bonus, you're also treated to the catchy #1 song "3" and B-sides/remixes pulled from many of the singles. As a Britney Spears fan, this set is ideal. The music itself is four or five stars since the set features the very best of Spears. What makes this 'deluxe' set flawed is simply the price and concept of a collection containing all of her 'singles' in one box.
The Bad: With the retail price tag of almost $100, and even with the Amazon.com discount, I expected a lot more from the deluxe edition of the 'singles' collection. After all, just a few weeks ago Jive released a single disc edition of the this same 'singles collection' Britney Spears: The Singles Collection. So, what makes this different from the standard edition? A box, an individual sleeve containing the original cover art of each single. A DVD containing 26 Britney Spears music videos. For $100 and a title like 'the singles collection' and a picture showing covers of her singles, I (as a fan and consumer) expected the full, un-abridged SINGLE, meaning the original mix of each song (which is included) and the numerous remixes or B-sides that were originally released with each single. Instead, the original mix of each song is included (just as with the standard edition) and just one B-side or one remix from the original single. What exactly is the point? Just five years ago Jive released Britney's Greatest Hits: My Prerogative (Limited Edition with Bonus CD), Greatest Hits: My Prerogative and Britney Spears - Greatest Hits - My Prerogative, almost the exact same concept (minus the B-sides/remixes from the singles), and with almost the same track listing with the exception of the songs from Blackout and Circus.
To me, this deluxe 'Singles Collection' is a huge rip-off and ploy by Jive, not Britney Spears, to rake in more money during the holiday season. Why not include more original songs? How about including hard-to-find tracks or cuts that didn't make it onto the albums (including "Amnesia" from 'Circus' that was never formerly released in the U.S. or "Kiss You All Over" that was cut from 'Blackout' would have definitely made this release more valuable). Instead, we're treated to a few B-sides that have been available for years now and remixes that are easy to find online, even purchased and downloaded separately on sites like Amazon.com! This is nothing more than an expanded edition of "My Prerogative: Greatest Hits", made to include tracks from 'Blackout' and 'Circus'. The price is outrageously high not because of anything special musically but more so for the packaging. I definitely felt the DVD design and execution was superior on "My Prerogative" as this collection's videos are just slapped onto the disc with none of the special angles, special features and such that came with the "My Prerogative" video collection.
The Good: The B-sides, mainly from Britney's first two albums, are definitely a nice bonus to this set. They are crisp, remastered and musically offer a lot (instead of all of the auto-tune she plays with now, the early B-sides feature a simpler Spears taking a stab at singing about love, heart ache and teenage angst). The remixes included are good, even though some of them are not the true best remixes from the singles. Another good thing I can say about 'The Singles Collection (Deluxe)' is that it's nice to have a DVD that has a lot of the recent videos (though it would have been nice had it included "3").
If this was a true celebration of her decade in the business, a lot more effort could have been put into this set. There's nothing deluxe about it other than the price tag. There are a few extra tracks not included in her last greatest hits album and there are some B-sides and remixes gathered in one place/collection that makes it only slightly better (but far more expensive) than "My Prerogative". But, in the end, this is an overpriced, flawed released. 30 discs - 29 containing 2 songs EACH, many of which even a casual Britney Spears fan will already own. A DVD (the 30th disc) that contains the music videos, but many which don't warrant shelling out $70+ (I mean, are the videos for "Radar", "Break the Ice", "If U Seek Amy" or even "Gimme More" worth the purchase? These aren't Britney Spears at her best). It's a nice gift or purchase for the hardcore fan but personally, I'd recommend waiting another few years for the next 'greatest hits' or special career-spanning release from Jive for Britney Spears before spending money on this.

 Britney's Gift To Fans --> Straight From The Heart! November 25, 2009
*badgirl* (M-I-A)
7 out of 8 found this review helpful
Britney Spears finally brings a vibe comparable to "gimme more" and definitely hot as ice! This box set not only includes the hit singles spanning her career with rare b-sides and rare mixes remastered but also a DVD*. The entire package is stunning, collector's corner "dream" and fan sensation.
The first thing when opening the box is a glossy type booklet with artwork displayed on most releases that explain the chart positions, sales ranks, and video positions all throughout France, UK, Germany, Japan, the United States and more. The booklet has a detailed description of the video producer of each hit, some lyrics, and beautiful photos.
But the beauty of the entire set is the actual music rarities. The first CDs I played were GIMME MORE, CIRCUS, MY PREROGATIVE, and OUTRAGEOUS. The length of the mixes are long and not on the regular releases. The b-sides are also fun to hear like on STRONGER, SOMEDAY (I WILL UNDERSTAND) and others. But my true fascination definitely is the long rare DJ mixes not heard before on any release album or single.
The DVD portion [housed in shiny glossy card type sleeve] has 26 excellent hit videos vs the 16 in standard editions with great quality. If remix videos would have been included that would have been phenomenal. The video 3 is not on it but all the other newer ones are like: DO SOMETHIN', SOMEDAY (I WILL UNDERSTAND), GIMME MORE, PIECE OF ME, BREAK THE ICE, WOMANIZER, CIRCUS, IF U SEEK AMY, and RADAR.
This is a phenomenal package of hits definitely creative, artistic, and innovative. Never before has a music artist released such a beautifully packaged and stunning masterful set. This is by far Britney's true passion and love for fans, new listeners, and expression of just how far she has come, will continue to go, and eventually break the barriers of super stardom in the most humble of ways yet strong, assured, and independent! Although, Britney may have had rough times, they helped her become the stonger person she is thus making her passions of music, dance, and dreams *more* inspirational and definitely from the heart!!!!
*The 2 latest singles are also included with the following diverse track information: The single "3" has 2-tracks: "3" version 3:33, "Groove Police Club Mix 7:12", and the single "Radar" has Radar 3:49, Bloodshy & Avant Remix 5:43.
Really is a tragedy there are barely any of her full length club mixes November 24, 2009

Over the course of her career, SO many of britney's club mixes of her singles have been spread across several discs, both domestic and import CD singles as well as vinyl, including DJ promo only vinyl with mixes that never had commercial releases. This expensive box would have been an IDEAL chance to bring all those mixes together. But here, there are barely any full length club mixes, and most of them already appeared on CD. You get:
Me Against The Music (Passengerz vs. The Club mix) (7:34)
Toxic (Bloodshy & Avant's Intoxicated mix) (5:35)
Everytime (above & beyond club mix) (8:46)
My Prerogative (armand van helden remix) (7:48)
Do Somethin (Thick Vocal mix) (7:59)
Gimme More (Paul Oakenfold mix) (6:08)
Piece of Me (Bloodshy & Avant's Boz o Lo remix) (4:53)
Womanizer (Kaskade mix) (5:31)
Circus (Tom Neville ringleader mix) (7:52)
Radar (Bloodshy & Avant remix) (5:43)
3 (Groove Police Club mix) (7:42)
All remaining remixes are short remixes to begin with or EDITS of longer club mixes. A CD has 80 minutes of free space, and on each of these discs we're not getting more than 10 minutes of music in most cases. This entire boxed set worth of music could have probably fit on 3 or 4 CDs and been sold for about 25 dollars less!
And consider this. As of this writing, there has been no CD single release for 3, so if you want the club mix of this song on CD, you have to buy this entire boxed set. Other than that, the ONLY track in this boxed set that I didn't have on CD was the remix of Radar! Where are the big club remixes that have never been on CD before of songs like My Prerogative? Outrageous? Toxic? You Drive Me Crazy? Lucky? Breath On Me? Me Against the Music? I'm a Slave 4U? Many of the mixes of these songs were only available on vinyl and DJ promo vinyl. It would not only have been a sign of appreciation to fans to make this an expansive singles collection, it also would have been a testament to Britney's club appeal over the years. As it is now, your not getting much of anything that a hardcore fan wouldn't already have.
Great box set December 25, 2009

nice box set for anyone who missed out on previous singles that were released..
the only 2 downsides i found are..i think the singles should have had exactly the same amount of tracks that were originally released on the singles instead of just having 2 racks each and on the last single "3" there seems to be either a mis-print or a missing song..casue on the cover it states it has 3 songs yet on the cd it self and when u play it it only has 2 songs.
but regardles of all that...if your a Brintey Spears fan id recommend buying it for your collection.
Amazing Collectors Item Musthave December 21, 2009

I'm from the Netherlands and I pre-ordered The Singles Collection Boxset on Amazon.com with Priority Shipping, and I am so happy with it! I received it 2 days after the release (which is amazing) and of course, not only the shipment was amazing... but the boxset itself really is a musthave! It looks really great, includes a beautiful booklet, 29 singles and a beautiful dvd with (almost) all of her music videos which I can't stop watching over and over again! If you are a Britney fan, I really recommend this boxset. And to those living in Europe and having doubts on purchasing this item on Amazon.com, I'd like to say: Just do it! The service is amazing, and so is the product!
