Most of you have already heard Britney Spears new album "Circus". But have you heard the bonus tracks? Some are even better than songs on the album. Here is a short review of the ones I found:
1. Quicksand: A beautiful song. The writers did a really good job with it. You can tell it was written by Lady GaGa. It should have replaced maybe "My Baby". 8.5/10
2. Trouble: It reminded me of the Madonna song "Get Together" immediately. I love how it has the trance thing. This is one of my favorites. Should have maybe replaced, it should have been added on. Not replacing anything. 9/10
3. Amnesia: I used to like it a lot. But now it's a little bit annoying. They made the right call by not putting it on. But it is pretty enjoyable though. 7.87/10
4. Phonography: This song is mediocre. The chorus is pretty good. But the rest is garbage. It should be replaced by another bonus track. 4/10
5. Rock Me In: I like this song. The chorus is pretty good. The production is futuristic. It was added on the deluxe edition. 8/10
6. Rock Boy: This track sounds like a bonus track. That's not a good thing. Thank god it was not included on anything. 3/10
7. Radar: It was on her previous album. But apparently it was revised. I can't hear the difference. But I still love it. 9/10
8. Candy From Strangers: It is disputed whether this is actually Britney Spears. I don't know, the voice sounds like her from "Blackout". But I can't see her even doing this song. But I do love the song. A lot. 9.5/10
So that's all I could find. If their are any more. Just comment. Thanks for reading.
Update: After I read up I found out that the song is by Myah Marie. But I still think the song is top notch.

Britney Spears - Blackout (Circus Celebration Review)
When Blackout had hit the public in 2007 everyone was wondering if Britney would pull it off. The answer was yes.
Britney made in my opinion, her strongest album in her career. "Gimme More" was a hit all over the world for good reason. It was dance oriented which hit big in Europe and in North America people listened well because it's Britney. Another great track is "Radar". Where Britney comes off as a maneater who is very picky about her men.
The weskest moment is "Perfect Lover". It's just is not up to par with the rest of the album. Even though the track was pretty good.
Rating: 81/100 (Radar, Piece of Me and Hot As Ice)

Britney Spears - Circus

Circus is a mix of many styles mixed into one. From the dance oriented first single "Womanizer" to the ballad oriented "Out from Under". Circus is a mixed bag of tricks from top-notch producers and a new revitalized Britney.
The best moments of the album come from the ballad "Out from Under" which is her best ballad since "Everytime". The best track is "If U Seek Amy". The song is an up-beat robotized track which could have belonged on her previous album Blackout. Another surprise on the album is the comeback of the outstanding track "Radar".
But Circus doesn't come with it's flaws. "My Baby" is the weakest track on the album. It's a track which Britney comes off as melodramatic and frankly whiny.
Overall this album is a good effort from Britney. It may not be as good as her previous album Blackout but, it's still pretty darn good.
Rating: 76/100 (Best Tracks: If U Seek Amy and Radar)
