If You Seek Amy – New Britney Spears Song Explained
Monday, January 26th, 2009New Britney Spears song titled If You Seek Amy (in video below) is raising eyebrows and I can’t help but give kudos to Britney Spears. Girl is a genius. This is show business 101, she knows what she’s doing and she’s doing it right.
Britney Spears used a little word game to put together a song that offended enough people to get massive media attention. Media attention brings If You Seek Amy to people like me, who would never otherwise listen to it, because music of Britney Spears does not give me a hard on. That’s why I think Britney Spears truly deserves the fame she gets – cause she’s doing it right. Now let’s take a look at If You Seek Amy – it took me a minute to get it so I have to explain it to you, in case your brain is in your pants too.
The stand alone title of the song If You Seek Amy doesn’t really suggest all that much, but it starts making perfect sense when you put it in context in which Britney Spears signs the line. It goes something like this (excerpt from If You Seek Amy lyrics):
All of the boys and all of the girls
Are beggin’ to If You Seek Amy
If you say these lyrics fast enough or repeatedly several times, you’ll get what Britney Spears is saying right away. She’s awesome. She’s basically talking about boys and girls wanting to fuck her:
All of the boys and all of the girls
Are beggin’ to F*U*C*K ME
Britney Spears gets exactly what she needs and what she was aiming for with If You Seek Amy – controversy. The Parents Television Council is already complaining and wants the song off the air between 6 am and 10 pm saying it violates indecency laws. Give me a break you bunch of fucking prudes… However, it plays off well for Britney Spears. Everybody, whether fans of shitty music or not now wants to check out what If You Seek Amy is all about. Could she have promoted her own shitty music better? No damn way!
If You Seek Amy doesn’t even have a video to accompany it yet and is already on Billboard Top 100. The single appears on New Britney Spears album titled Circus. Fan made video to If You Seek Amy is below.
