CRITICS ARE LOVING THE NEW ALBUM!

The bow-down-to-Godney press reviews are already rolling in for Britney's seventh studio effort, Femme Fatale. And that's in addition to Rolling Stone giving four out of five stars and Popjustice calling the album "basically brilliant." Check it out:
"...entirely unapologetic, dark, throbbing dance-pop..." —Us Weekly
"Spears shows that she can still give the Lady Gagas and Rihannas of the pop world a serious challenge on the dance floor. Femme Fatale is a nonstop party, starting off with a fun flourish with the poppy 'Till the World Ends' and winding down with the dark, downbeat 'Criminal.'" —Associated Press
"This is a great dance record. Revoke my critic's card, label me a pop poseur, confiscate my Bob Dylan vinyl, but it's the truth. Brit's seventh studio album kills as a dancefloor soundtrack." —Boston Herald
"Spears and her fans needed this record. Pop music needed this record. It’s engaging, and, in pulling the best elements from her past two efforts, Spears and her production crew built a purely blissful account of currently-trending tunes." —Consequence of Sound
"Molded by all-star helmers Max Martin and Dr. Luke, the album is a ballad-free, treadmill-ready playlist of tireless dance beats and top-shelf production." —Entertainment Weekly
"Either taking a gamble or just a reflection of her own tastes, Fatale is the most club-ready album from a major artist since Madonna's Confessions on a Dance Floor." —Hit Fix
"Brit's always delivered on the dance floor — and the beat goes on here with the saucy come-ons of 'Hold It Against Me,' the robot swagger of 'Big Fat Bass' and the Ke$ha-written party-girl anthem 'Till The World Ends.' —In Touch Weekly
"Other pop artists will come and go, but Britney Spears is a true femme fatale who makes the best pop music around — and you can hold that against me." —Pop Boi
"7 out of 10." —SPIN
"Reviews are starting to pour in for Britney Spears' latest release, Femme Fatale, and the consensus seems to be that the pop star has delivered 'another Blackout,' which in the parlance of Spears' fans means it's good — real good." —PopEater

STM Experience: Taylor Swift - "Speak Now" World Tour Live in Manila



It's been a while since the last time I went out to watch a concert. 10.10.10 was the last concert I went to, which is Adam Lambert's "Glam Nation Tour" at the SM Mall of Asia open grounds. 4 months later, here I am again making a concert review to share my wonderful experience to all of STM's avid readers. And trust me, I enjoyed this one so much!


Manila was lucky enough to be part of Taylor Swift's "Speak Now" World Tour. After successful concerts in Singapore, South Korea and Japan, it's Manila's turn to witness Taylor Swift's explosive country extravaganza on Feb 19.

Chosen by Taylor Swift herself, Filipino talent, Sam Concepcion opened the concert at exactly 8pm with his version of Chris Brown's "Yeah Yeah Yeah". His second song was Kung Fu Panda's theme "Kung Fu Fighting", followed by his hit, "Even If". His last song was a rendition of Katy Perry's recent hit, "Firework" which delighted the audience.

Taylor's set did not start until 9pm. When the lights went down, it was Swift's opening song, "Sparks Fly". Audience went crazy! It was indeed the start of a magical night with country music's favorite princess. Here's the concert set list:

1. Sparks Fly

2. Mine
3. The Story of Us
4. Back to December/ Apologize/ You’re Not Sorry (medley)
5. Better Than Revenge
6. Speak Now
7. Fearless (Acoustic)/ I’m Yours (medley)
8. Fifteen
9. You Belong with Me
10. Dear John
11. Enchanted
12. Long Live
13. Love Story

I must admit that this is one of the best concerts I've ever been to. The crowd is awesome, singing all of the songs throughout the entire concert. Right from the start, you'll know that this is an audience full of energy and true enough, they never lost the energy until the concert ended. Even Taylor herself got amazed at how incredible the audience was and expressed her happiness through her Twitter account right after the show.

Of course, Taylor was as energetic as her audience, dancing, jumping and running throughout the entire concert which delighted the crowd. She was even uttering Filipino terms from time to time. I believe she said "Magandang Gabi" (Good Evening), "Salamat" (Thank You"), Mahal Ko Kayo" (I Love You) and "Kumusta" (How Are You) to which the audience responded with loud cheers. She also had a few costume changes: The sparkly gown on "Sparks Fly", the blue dress on "Speak Now", the shining gown on "Enchanted" and the white dress on "Love Story", which added excitement to the whole experience of watching Swift perform.

The moment Taylor appeared on stage, every person at the Big Dome instantly got mesmerized. There's something about this girl that captivates you. Like when you we're a child and obsessed with Barbie. Maybe because her songs are about experiences. Our personal experiences. We easily relate to every heartbreak and tear and happiness and boy crush that she has or had in the past. Not to mention the charismatic beauty this artist has and the heart of a down-to-earth person. Truly, it was enchanting to meet this artist in person and share with her, even for a night, all of the wonderful experiences of being a teen and being in love.
