“My favorite song i’ve ever recorded is Before the Goodbye, which was a bonus track on my third album. I love that song and regret that it wasn’t made into a single.” - Britney Spears in a new excerpt from her book, #TheWomanInMe 

This is a fake quote

Well, considering this was the original album lead prior to "I'm a Slave 4 U" it makes sense.

How so when the song wasn’t even finished

How is it fake? I've seen it posted everywhere

Britney hates Bombastic Love so much. I read she would fight daily with her label not to have it on the album and even worse, they wanted to officially release it instead of Overprotected. 

 

Also P!nk used the "uh oh uh oh" sample way better. 2:48 in this video:

 

 

Brit coming through with the excellent taste again. I agree, BTG is one of the best recordings of her career and it's a real shame it was relegated to a bonus track.

Wait that P!nk track came out in 2000. Did Britney sample P!nk???

Did you read the book

No but I read many comments on youtube about people going to listen to the song after reading the book. So are they all liars then?

 

If so, then I admit I was duped. She actually spoke about BTG before on Rolling Stone saying it was one of her favorites when she was recording, so it seemed plausible to me that it was a real quote.

What do you mean? "Before the Goodbye" was selected as the album's lead, then "I'm a Slave 4 U" was selected. 🤷

I think it was BT (the producer) who said “Before the Goodbye” was in fact not properly finished, so makes me wonder how’d they go with a song that was still in the works

I don’t recall her saying that in the RS interview. She did say though to YM Magazine that “Bring Me Home” was her favorite off the record and it didn’t even make it in the end.

Clearly, they would have finished it prior to release, so... yeah. But then the change was made, so there was no immediate need to finish the song prior to single release.

Ugh, this and I Run Away are two of her best songs ever. They would’ve really elevated the album had they been included in the standard edition.
