1. BRITNEY SPEARS
Britney Jean Spears (born December 2, 1981) is an Americanrecording
artist and entertainer. Born in McComb, Mississippi, and raised in Kentwood,
Louisiana, Spears began performing as a child, landing acting roles in stage
productions and television shows. She signed with Jive Records in 1997 and
released her debut album...Baby One More Time in 1999, which became the
best-selling album by a teenage solo artist.[2] During her first decade in the
music industry, she became a prominent figure in mainstream popular music
and popular culture, followed by a much-publicized personal life. Her first two
albums established her as a pop icon and broke sales records, while title tracks
"...Baby One More Time" and "Oops!... I Did It Again" became international
number-one hits. Spears was credited with influencing the revival of teen
pop during the late 1990s, and became the 'best-selling teenaged artist of all
time' before she turned 20,[3] garnering her honorific titles such as "Princess of
Pop".[4]
In 2001, she released her third studio album Britney and expanded her brand,
playing the starring role in the film Crossroads. She assumed creative control of
her fourth studio album, In the Zone(2003), which yielded chart-topping singles
"Me Against the Music", "Toxic" and "Everytime". After the release of two
compilation albums, Spears experienced personal struggles and her career
went into hiatus. Her fifth studio album, Blackout, was released in 2007 and
despite receiving little promotion, it spawned hits "Gimme More" and "Piece of
Me". In 2008, her erratic behavior and hospitalizations caused her to be placed
in a conservatorship. The same year, her sixth studio album Circus was
released, with the global chart-topping lead single "Womanizer", and hits such
as "Circus" and "If U Seek Amy". She embarked on her highest-grossing global
concert tour,[5]The Circus Starring Britney Spears, in 2009. In October of the
same year, she released a chart-topping single, "3", which became her third
single to reach number one on the Billboard Hot 100. Her seventh studio
album Femme Fatale, released in 2011, has become the first of her albums to
yield three top ten singles in the United States, "Hold It Against Me", "Till the
World Ends" and "I Wanna Go". The same year, she also gained her fifth
number one single when she featured on the remix of "S&M" alongsideRihanna.
Spears's work has earned her numerous awards and accolades, including
a Grammy Award, 6 MTV Video Music Awards including the Lifetime
Achievement Award, 9 Billboard Music Awards, and a star on the Hollywood
Walk of Fame. In 2009, Billboard ranked her as the 8th overall Artist of the
Decade,[6] and also recognized her as the best-selling female artist of the first
decade of the 21st century, as well as the fifth overall.[7] TheRecording Industry

1 ) I WANNA GO
Lately I've been stuck imagining
What I wanna do and what I really think
Time to blow out
Be a little inappropriate
Cause I know that everybody's thinking it
When the light's out
Shame on me
To need release
Un-un-uncontrollably
I-I-I wanna go-o-o all the way-ay-ay taking out my
freak tonight
I-I-I wanna show-o-o all the day-ay-ay I got running
through my mind

There's a countdown waiting for me to erupt
Time to blow out
I've been told who I should do it with
To keep both my hands above the blanket
When the light's out

4) CRIMINAL
He is a hustler, he's no good at all
He is a loser, he's a bum-bum-bum-bum
He lies, he fluffs, he's unreliable
He's is a sucker with a gun-gun-gun-gun
I know you told me I should stay away
I know you said he's just a dog astray-ay
He is a rebel with a tained heart
And even I know this ain't smart
But, mama, I'm in love with a criminal
And this type of love isn't rational, it's physical
Mamma, please don't cry, I will be all right
All reason aside, I just can't deny
I love that guy
He is a villain by the devil's law
He is a killer just for fun-fun-fun-fun
That man's a snitch, he's unpredictable
He's got no punches, he got none-none-none-none
Oh-oh I kno-ow
Should've let go, but no
7. 'Cause he's a rebel with a tained heart
And even I know this ain't smart
But, mama, I'm in love with a criminal
And this type of love isn't rational, it's physical
Mama, please don't cry, I will be all right
All reason aside, I just can't deny
I love that guy
And he's got my name
Tatooed on his arm , his lucky charm
So I guess it's okay
He's with me
And we hear people talk (people talk)
Trying to make remarks, keep us apart
But I don't even hear
I don't care
But, mama, I'm in love with a criminal
And this type of love isn't rational, it's physical
Mama, please don't cry, I will be all right
All reason aside, I just can't deny
I love that guy
Mama, I'm in love with a criminal
And this type of love isn't rational, it's physical
Mama, please don't cry, I will be all right
All reason aside, I just can't deny
I love that guy
