She was very pregnant when she recorded this track and you can hear outtakes of her chewing on ice in the recording booth that just adds so much personality and artistry that only Britney can pull off love her love you for these videos so fun chills
The "tera duck" effect truly had me laughing uncontrollably; it's just too funny! The production quality of this song is INSANE! It's simply otherworldly, utterly ICONIC! Every segment of the tune is ICONIC, just unbelievable! It's a MASTERPIECE on every conceivable level, wow! There will never be another album quite like this, nor another artist like her; she's legendary. Immense thanks to you, Sammy, for your incredible work. Your expressions and the way you revel in the music as you break it down are truly unique. I'm a massive fan of yours, thank you so much, and God bless.
The synths, keys, and pads - they give me goosebumps! Individually, they sound kinda melancholic but when put together - they sound epic. BTI is such a beautiful masterpiece!!!
Literally listen to this song every day like that blackout album is so underrated it is masterful in every way like it is just iconic in every way. Enjoyed this one, thankyou sor
Love your work man. Break the Ice is just an absolute banger, like that entire album. Heartbreaking to think that it was released while she was in the midst of such personal trauma. A true pop gem. I remember it was discounted to $14.99 at Sanity on first release and I don't think people realised intially the magic that awaited them.
The world just got better when Britney got into it ❤ she gave so much ❤ damn I miss her ❤ where is Britney Spears 🙏🏻🩷🙏🏻 justice for our queen Britney 👑💞
Thank you once again for this! I have been analysing this amazing track in my head for years and there you are doing your analysis! I wish there were more songs like this one nowadays...💯💪🏻👍🏻✅
And the best part is that it all looks so simple (i obviously understand that production is a lot of work). Like the production seems minimalistic but reaches a certain maximalist effect. Perfection. The skill of every person involved wow!
This is on a whole different level of pop music production. I’d love you do TOY SOLDIER next, especially because never before has someone done it on Yt.
‘Blackout’ (and the demos which leaked some weeks before) was released when I was 18… imagine me and friends from high school going to clubs and parties for the very first time with our own cars and listening to these masterpieces! I clearly remember that even my friends who were not into Britney and pop music, they all wanted to listen to the Blackout songs!! I’m so grateful for that period of my life, it was so much fun ❤ greetings from Italy 🇮🇹
Man the way you dissect the entire song it is so enjoyable, I am sharing this across all my social media, thank you for listening to my request you won a subscriber ♥
Hello, I have seen your videos and I am your fan. I loved knowing that there are people who like to know how the songs are composed, especially from the album Blackout by Britney Spears
OMG, I've been waiting a long time for this on your channel!!! I hope you make more Blackout in honor of Halloween!!, and congratulations on your channel that continues to grow, the B-Armys support you!! 🥂
This was amazing. I never realized how great Britney's vocals are on here. PLEASE do Brandy next anything from the Never Say Never or Full Moon albums. Backgrounds vocals are insane.
Soy Salvadoreño y me encanta Britney Spears desde que tengo memoria, me impactó con toxic, pero me leíste la mente con ésta canción de como se hizo Break the Ice de la Eterna Princesa del Pop. Gracias Guapo ❤
it’s the way you can hear the influence of this song’s production still evident today. that stripped back version at the end? you can hear the direct influence it has on the sounds the weeknd creates in his music today. blackout is THE pop bible.
Britney is amazing and so are your skills! Like wow I’ve literally never seen someone like break down things like this before. It truly shocked me to my core and I am glad you make this content for everyone to see thanks and I have subbed and liked like always.😊
You're audio is getting better, by the way! I'm glad you're working to improve with each video! As someone who is classically trained with piano and voice, I was never a big fan of Britney in all honesty (not even her early work). When she first came on the scene I was listening to singers like Celine Dion, Lara Fabian, Josh Groban, Sarah Brightman, Enya, Clannad/Moya Brennan, etc. So my taste in music is very different. That said, I only watched a little bit of this video to hear if the audio was better. Still love your passion and appreciation for music, though. It's great to see people be so passionate about music! 😊
WOW! Amazing job! There is a song called "Candy from a stranger" that was not included in the album but if you listen it, you'll found out that is very similar to Break the ice.
"Born To Make You Happy" has been my favorite song since I was 10 years old.... love the BL's remix because I love the straight up instrumental for it too but I think it would be really cool to see you break that one down! Please!:)
Oh wow! I didn’t know there’d be another Adelaidean™ around my age who knows and appreciates pop masterpieces like you do! (I’m so thankful my feed recommended me _“Love Will Never Do [Without You]”_ a while back now, it’s been on repeat ever since!) 😄🙌🏾👌🏾💃🏽🎶☀️✨ Hope to see you examine _“Sittin’ Up In My Room”_ by Brandy, or the _✨Sugababes’✨_ renown hits, I’m going to see them this January in Melbourne with my Brother, and we’re so dang excited!!!!! 🥳🙌🏾🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉💃🏽💃🏼💃🏻🎙️🔥🎶🪩🌟✨
That Tera Duck sounds very Hyperpop… it’s so clear how impactful Blackout was to pop music a lot of modern day artists’ sounds can be tracked back to this album I feel
Dayum Man, you're awesome pulling away the songs and the putting them back together step by step. You can really see what a production work of art songs like this are. I would love you to the same for "Toy Soldier"
OMG!!!! That was sooo epic!!!! I loooooooved it. Britney is such a force. 'BREAK THE ICE" is one of my fav songs ever. Thank you for this video. I'd love to see 'like a prayer' by madonna or "la isla bonita"❤ 'Maneater' by Nelly Furtado "What you waiting for" by Gwen Stefani Heheh alot of request but the way you break this down is so amazing. Keep it up;)
I love watching and hearing how you break down these iconic songs! Britney is my #! queen so seeing any song like this is amazing but i definately would love to see you do a video for "Heaven on Earth". Itr's one of my favs!
Fans have speculated that the Britney Jean album is mostly sang by Myah Marie and not Britney herself. It would be interesting to see you break down any song from that album!
First of all, I'm such a fan of your videos! I say hi from Argentina!! Secondly, could you consider diving into a deep cut? Like How I Roll or Touch of my hand or a non-single? We'd all deeply appreciate it. Keep up the excellent work, mate!
I love it ❤ Break The Ice is so underrated, Watching your video, you forgot an iconic part of the song's instrumental that is at minute 2:24 of the song
