Good but trashy
"In The Zone" is a good album musically but lyrically it is possibly the worst pop album of 2003. Sex is a huge issue- "Touch of My Hand" is about masturbation and several other songs are sexual. Britney's frequent breathing in the songs doesn't help. There are some bad words. On "Outrageous" Spears describes her material possessions and several tracks talk about wild partying. Although kids my age listen to this album it really isn't appropriate.

I expected more got less.
The album is not bad but still has some many weak tracks such as Shadow, Brave New Girl and I've Got That. If you want to buy it for your kids then I don't recommend you. The album is really sex oriented. Such as Toxic, Breahte On Me, Touch of My Hand just to name a few.

IN THE ZONE
Being a Britney Spears fan I loved IN THE ZONE. It was a complete change for Britney. Her blatant sexuality is somewhat overwhelming with lyrics like "I don't really wanna be a tease, but would you unzip my zipper please?" or " And when you come don't get too hot..." both from a song all about sexual activity called "SHOWDOWN". Or in the song "EARLY MORNIN'" Britney talks about "shaking her a** in the streets its mornin" and "wanna hook up, do ya momma live there, we can hook up at the hotel" and "i met a guy named Joe...what happened next, well you don't wanna know, oh, oh". Finally, in "BOOM BOOM" she states "oh boy..you look so D**n sexy", "I got that boom boom that you want..watching me all night long (moan) hurry up before its gone". But in the mess of sex with anonymous Joes, alcohol abuse/ hangovers, are sweet songs of love....and more sex, club bumping hits.

Boredom again yells a war cry
Talk about dull. Pop is plain out dull and hurts my ears. With bands like Britney Spears supporting bands like Simple Plan and Good Charlotte, I protest! Superstars don't exist anymore. Everyone's style is changing. I read a review saying that Britney and Good Charlotte were destined to be the next band-everyone-likes. If so, armaggeddon is coming.

Good CD but has quetionable qualities
I liked this CD. I'm 16 and I thought that it was borderline appropriate for kids my age. I think that parents should be warned that some of the lyrics and material talk about sex and drinking, such as the song "Touch of my Hand". There is also some mild language in the CD. If you can get past some of the objectionable material, this is a good CD with good dance music. I like listening to the CD and the upbeat songs put me in a good mood.

Come on...
People are just giving this CD low ratings because it's Britney Spears. But come on, it's not that bad. Sure, her vocals aren't that great, but they're a lot better than Lindsay Lohan's or Hilary Duff's. A lot of her songs are easy to get addicted to, and you get get over the mediocre vocals.

this is typical britney music, i like the collaborations that she did with old and new artists. she is trying new things in her album muscially and artistically. as far as britney's image goes, how come no one is making a big fuss about beyonce? she's the same age, also wears sexy clothing, and dances in a similar suggestive manner. being a girl who grew up listening to madonna, i don't think that it was harmful to my ideas of womanhood, thoughts of sex, or the way that i dressed. as a dancer, i enjoyed this album.
