Britney Spears' Madonna Tour Video Revealed

Details of the mysterious video Britney Spears is starring in for Madonna's upcoming Sticky and Sweet tour have emerged. While the previous Brit/Madge collaboration "Me Against the Music" was the obvious guess, Spears will instead appear on the big screen while Madonna performs her Bedtime Stories hit "Human Nature." Much like Madonna in the original video for that song, Britney will dance and contort herself within a small, confined space — except this time around, it's an elevator. Seven cameras will reportedly capture Spears in the lift "pacing back and forth. Then she progresses to kicking and smacking the walls, all frantic-like. She screams into one of the cameras. Then she starts climbing the wall." Brit's freak-out concludes with her staring into one of the cameras and saying the trademark "It's Britney, bitch." The Sticky and Sweet tour kicks off its U.S. jaunt October 4th in East Rutherford, New Jersey.

“1999”

Prince | 1982

“I don’t consider myself a great poet,” Prince told Rolling Stone. “I just know I’m here to say what’s on my mind.” In the case of the apocalyptic party anthem “1999,” he was worried about then-president Ronald Reagan’s foreign policies. The song’s melody is based on a riff borrowed from the Mamas and Papas’ “Monday, Monday,” and Prince originally envisioned the first verse with three-part harmony but later split the vocals between himself and members of the Revolution. Because Warner Bros., with whom Prince was locked in a contractual battle, owned the original’s masters, Prince rerecorded the song and appropriately released that version in 1999.
