Femme Fatale
Britney Spears' new album Femme Fatale is a very strong album of pop, dance-pop, and electropop music. It seems that any track on the album can be a hit song, since they are all equally good. Some of my favorite songs are "Gasoline" and "Criminal". A fun album to listen to, and her best album to date. Femme Fatale will be a big seller. The deluxe version of the album has four extra songs. I also like her Blackout and Circus albums, and her Femme Fatale Tour concert. Her 90s album ...Baby One More Time is on my 90s Music blog.

Jackie Evancho has an amazing voice for her age. This EP has Christmas songs, and is perfect to play for the holidays. "O Holy Night" is my favorite of the four on the album.
