Britney Spears, when she gets her finger out, is a fine fine fine pop star. Sadly, she’d had a clutch of tracks in recent years which haven’t quite hit the spot.

That said, she averages around one great single per album (sometimes more, granted) which left us wondering if this new long-player of hers, Femme Fatale, was going to be a bit of a damp squib.

Would You Hold It Against Me was something of a let down, despite seemingly having all the correct components to be a decent record. The video was pretty lame too. However, her next single, Til The End Of The World has been leaked and it sounds like a corker!

Britney always falls flat when she’s toying with a theme. When Spears reaches for something artistic or relevant, she can often pull up short in comparison with other artists who are more adept at toying with the zeitgeist.

However, Britney has gone and made a splendidly dumb pop record that requires you to do nothing more than dance like an idiot to it. It has echoes of Kelis’ wonderful ‘Acapella’.

Til The End Of The World has been leaked (or ‘leaked’ if you prefer) and it looks like she might just have a club MDMA hit on her hands.

Spears took to Twitter to say that there’ll be a “formal premiere” of the track on Ryan Seacrest’s radio show on Friday.

Femme Fatale meanwhile goes on sale March 29th. We can only wait and see if there’s still a public appetite for Britney (we’re guessing that there is).

Spears has said of the track:

“I think ‘Femme Fatale’ speaks for itself … I wanted to make a fierce dance record where each song makes you want to get up and move”

If it’s Monday morning, it means you needs something to help you swallow down the urge to violently attack your oppressive wagemasters. Will some Eurovision betting odds be able to do it for you?

No, probably not. But let’s have some Eurovision betting odds anyway. But first an apology. Last week we told you that Eurovision was going to put electronic polling stations in public squares around Europe to help collect votes, but apparently that was all a big April Fool’s joke. An electronic vote-counting method for Eurovision? How could we have been so easily fooled? That’s the cleverest, wittiest April Fool’s joke we ever saw! Well done, dipshits.

Here are the Eurovision betting odds for Cyprus, with help from Paddy Power…

Cyprus – (pop. 780,133; an island in the eastern Mediterranean Sea): Evdokia Kadi, Femme Fatale

Cyprus’ old Eurovision trick is to dress a pretty blonde girl up in nice clothes and pray that it makes up for the fact that their song isn’t very good. But that’s all changed for this year’s Eurovision. This year the entrant is Evdokia Kadi, who’s a pretty brunette in nice clothes. See? Completely different. But will it be enough to make up for the fact that the song isn’t very good? Because the song isn’t very good on so many counts. For starters, Femme Fatale is almost a note-for-note replication of the Oompa Loompah Doopidy Doo song from Willy Wonka And The Chocolate Factory, and if that’s not bad enough it’s a note-for-note replication of the Oompa Loompah Doopidy Doo song from Willy Wonka And The Chocolate Factory that’s so bitterly anti-men it’s only helped to further our crippling intimacy issues: “Hello bully, I’m woman and I belong to the gender that you call weak,” it chillingly goes. So can a pretty brunette in nice clothes cover up for all that? Hardly, which is why Cyprus has unveiled its secret weapon to help her – the world’s most stupidly tiny guitar. Current Eurovision betting odds – 100/1

Tomorrow – Czech Republic! But if that’s too long to wait – or you feel like making more money than you know what to do with – head right over to the Paddy Power Eurovision betting odds page to see the latest, and best, betting odds.
