New Music Tuesday - Britney Spears & Iggy Izalea

While growing up, Britney Spears was one of my favorite artists. I remember adults always asking me why I liked her, and now that I think about it,the only reason was, she has catchy songs. Keeping that in mind, Britney Spears just released a new song, "Pretty Girls," with rapper Iggy Izalea. Catchy is ALL that song is. First of all, the background synth line sounds exactly like the one from Azalea's "Fancy." Second, the lyrics have absolutely no substance. I really appreciate song lyrics, and usually can find at least one good line within a song. While reading the lyrics of the song, all I could do was laugh at how terrible they were. The sad thing is, this song will probably be all over the radio the next few weeks, just because it's Britney Spears.

"Standout" Lyrics:

"All around the world, pretty girls, wipe the floor with all the boys, pour the drinks, bring the noise, we're just so pretty!" (I read through all the lyrics in this song, this was the best I could find.)

Venue Review - Verizon Wireless Amphitheater Irvine

There are many venues that I enjoy going to, but the Verizon Wireless Amphitheater is not one of them. The main reason for this is parking. Each time I've attended a show, I've had to wait over an hour to get into the venue and over an hour to exit. This takes away from the overall enjoyment of the show. The actual venue itself has great acoustics and has a beautiful outdoor setting, but be prepared for a long walk to and from the parking lot. If one of your favorite artists is playing here, I would suggest seeing the show at another venue.

Where to find the Verizon Wireless Amphitheater Irvine:

8808 Irvine Center Dr, Irvine, CA 92618

Where to park:

Parking is $10 in the general lot and is located directly off Irvine Center Drive.
