Britney Spears - Hold It Against Me ( Acapella )

[kinkyclerk]

She only uses autotune because right now that's what's "in" in the music industry. but soon it will be r&b/hip hop beats again, and more limited autotune because everyone's gettin fuckin sick of it....

[MsFab73]

Toujours sa voix complètement trafiquée. Mais ça ne m'étonne pas d'elle. J'ai un peu pitié d'elle à cause de tout ces problèmes. C'est la seul musique d'elle que j'aime vraiment bien.

[WallsDarkness]

@MsFab73 Mais n'importe quoi, c'est pas elle qui choisit de mettre des effets etc. Puis c'est pas si "trafiqué" que ça pour dire il y a bien pire !

'fin bref, ça reste BRITNEY quoi ! <3

[famouskphantom]

I don't fucking care. People can sing but still use autotune. Get the fuck over it!! :) I love Britney. She does hardcore dance moves, so she can lipsync if she wanst. Just don't go watch her and stop being pathetic and complaining on youtube. LOL

[Mwilson1066]

If she can sing why does she lipsynch though like 80% of her concerts? Beyonce can sing and dance at the same time.

[simplybr]

well they do say a good voice is a voice u can reconise on the radio

[ThePlinnyVEVO]

.-. fanhe

[lovely001able]

JUST LOVE IT

can't understand if some people don't like it

[venuslemilo]

does anyone else hear someone say "no" at 3:07 ,like in response to would you hold it against me?



[ddffghij]

@venuslemilo oh my god yeah!! i notice that, how cool :D all though its very weak, and you can barely hear it, but its still there :D

[tasosentclub]

always love Britney' s voice<!

[Mintspray]

She doesn't need auto-tune but the composers of today want electronic effects to all songs...

But don't worry, in a few years this stupid trend will die and we'll hear people's real voices instead. Britney already has a great sweet and unique voice, so why mess it up?

[zrdROCKSTARR]

If you don't believe Britney can sing, look up Hold It Against Me with no autotune! 

[kilerke]

is this a joke? XD

[MakeUgoCraziie101]

WTF! People! It doesn't reallyy matter if she uses auto-tune or not!

SHE STILL SOUNDS GOOD! now SHUT UP AND ENJOY THE SONG!

[famouskphantom]

AND it's her voice...she's not using anything to make her voice sound "better" she can sing!

[cobd08]

@famouskphantom Are you deaf? she's auto tuned! She can't sing! The last time we heard her real voice was 10 years ago!

[famouskphantom]

@cobd08 Chill. I heard her sing live. I've watched videos of her singing live. This song right here. She doesn't have to change her pitch cause she can hit notes. Using "autotune" or whatever to enhance your song isn't a bad thing. Every artist does this, but it doesn't make them any less of a singer if they sing live.

[cobd08]

@famouskphantom Yay, you're right, every arist does it .. in a part of a song, and once in a while .. she does it all the time. Find one song in her new album where her voice is not auto tuned.

[famouskphantom]

@cobd08 drop dead beautiful, most of the song she isnt autotuned. same thing with how i roll. actually most of her songs her voice sounds normal but then its "autotuned" at parts to make it sound nicer. at least shes still using her voice and not completely changing it. its still her voice

[cobd08]

@famouskphantom She's auto tuned to death in drop dead beautiful. and if she abuses of beautiful that's because she can't sing.

[famouskphantom]

Who cares if its autotuned. She sings this song live. If you're complaining about autotuning then you shouldnt only be complaining on this song or artist...xP I love this btw

[ignaciomontecinos]

AUTO TUNE AUTO TUNE AUTO TUNE AUTO TUNE AUTO TUNE (8)

[LexisShantell21]

love it !! :D

[LeoTheGummyBear]

called delay...

[Sonofanil]

I don't think some of you understand what autotune is. Sure, they use lots of effects on her voice but what most of you claim to be autotune is actually lots of layers of harmonies of her own voice. That's why it sounds like it sounds like more than one person is singing, it's her own voice put on top of itself to give it that effect.

[venuslemilo]

@Sonofanil honey, its autotune, the un-autotuned version came out a while ago...

[britsur]

es la mejor cancion........

[SpearsInstrumentals]

download?

[jwhittle91]

ke$ha may be even more aut tuned but at least when she's live she actually sings.

[Angels970]

@XxwHiTeMoOnrIsEnxX

Oops ?!

It seems that screaming and braying donkeys of voice your mother Gaga on the stage make​you deaf !! I'm sorry for that baby ... Ask your mother to listen to Britney " live " in her new tour To tell you the truth that burns your heart

[ilyJonathanAndrew]

people this is autotuned because its an Acapella from the recorded studio version.

the only reason she sounds like a robot is because these are not the raw vocals before adding effects. so duuhhhh! so pls dnt say she cant sing or only uses autotune...yah she dose for the song but not live, her femme fatale tour was amazing and 75% live vocals w/o backtracking...shes the best<3 i went to the show in LA

[aasf2007]

uffff 100% autotune

[TeaLovesGaga]

AUTO TUNE !

[SaabCarter]

@TeaLovesGaga Non brit a une voix assez spéciale deja a la base ;) 

[LittleMonsterOfMotha]

I wanna die

[FearTheTristen]

robot

[belonshe]

Its real song without music?

[ChaineDeZozostar2]

You guys dont even know what autotune is so shut up!

[stntmn7964]

it's not just autotune people! melodyne is also a big factor

[rhodabitch]

You've still haven't proved anything. I love me some britney always have, but needless to say she does lip sync.

[GhostWriter520]

@rhodabitch As dance-heavy as her performances are, it's not really surprising. Now-a-days, the more dancing there is by the singer, the more likely it is that they're lip-syncing. Especially if the voice doesn't reflect the heavy dancing. Chris Brown does the same thing. Neyo's done it. Timberlake has as well.

[rhodabitch]

loveeee britney but shes used autotune forever now and she never sings live anymore.

[DKStripTease]

@rhodabitch LMAO YOU MORON. EVERYONE uses auto tune and PAY ATTENTION TO LIFE, Britney has been singing live on all her shows for the Femme Fatale tour! I was there at the second one in San Jose. LOLOLOL

[Angels970]

@rhodabitch

she sings live in her new tour

[screamrulz99]

it so autotune here....

[krew7able]

@yogurtcuk1 oh yeah? go see her singing live this aututone song so loool

[mackseemax1]

autotune trash

[odtorgr]

Hold the Autotune against me baby! ..........

[Ashleigh2134]

Auto-fucking-tuned

[LuisAfonsoOfficial]

auto tune 4ever!

[humor78]

It's her voice, jut that it has edited backing vocals.

[MarlaAnne181]

@humor78 thank you! I'm glad someone knows this, instead of claiming it as auto tune...

Auto tune died in 2008, there are some traces of it to this day, but its rare.

[toffseen]

2:22 owh

[crossbones64]

this is britney. her voice is not autotuned but amplified. she is in tune naturally. tpain is autotuned cuz you can hear the scrambling

[CakeBaby90]

Sounds like it's two Britney's are singing xD

[divinejulia]

come on people, this is the original song with the backtrack taken out. It's not her really singing acapella!!

[BASSER81]

@divinejulia Hahaha Are you for real?? Acapella doesn't mean a live take. Its just her vocal track without the song! In the same way an instrumental is just the song without the vocal tracks on board

[humor78]

@divinejulia Everyone knows that, just that we don't find a word to say ''a track with no music but the vocals''-

[bja111]

@divinejulia That's not even what acapella means.



[divinejulia]

@bja111 No shit sherlock! She isn't singing Acapella.... this is the actual recorded song with no music in the background.

[bja111]

@divinejulia Haha I'm sorry I didn't mean to comment on your original comment, I meant to comment to the person who posted it...lol. I totally agree with you!

[MikkimStudios]

@divinejulia A capella means that there are no instruments playing, which there aren't, and so it is A capella.

[divinejulia]

@MikkimStudios I know what acapella means, I'm not dumb but clearly u don't know what it means. Britney was not standing in a room singing and recording this song acapella. What I'm saying is this is the ORIGINAL RECORDING FROM HER ALBUM WITH THE MUSIC EDITED IT OUT! Does this mean she is singing acapella?!?! NO!!! It means means someone took the recording and edited out the music!

[divinejulia]

@MikkimStudios I know what acapella means, I'm not dumb but clearly u don't know what it means. Britney was not standing in a room singing and recording this song acapella.

It means means someone took the recording and edited out the music!

[nicholas23432]

@divinejulia its not britney singing acapella .. its the song hold it against me acapella .. which means that the song wouldnt have the background music which it does not therefore you are wrong , this is an acapella version of the song , not an a version of britney singing it acapella ;)

[sultyan]

@divinejulia

lately acapella stands for that sound file you can find it on the CD that comes with the official release of the single we are talking about.

it officially writes: "Official Single, Official Acapella and Official Instrumental" or whatever that says...

[hsymk1]

love it

[NOBODYSANGEL9]

Wow people dont even know what auto tune sounds like these days, HATERS!

[MisterGagaEmilio]

her voice sucks!

[GrimHude]

@MisterGagaEmilio hahahah crackheadd



[bankalito]

unfortunately Britney Was treated as a famous BRAND, not as a professional singer, From the first time she was in that industry. so it is that reason they always use playback for her, because she is more commercial. so im still love her!! i heard her singing live or using playback, and doing workout together here in ballys in 2008, amazing person, i hate the paparazzi!!

[jlygn]

wow is amaizing!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤

[UpUpandAwayRemixes]

@angelsweetface86 its not autotune its software called melodyne

[starplaya09]

@angelsweetface86 so do approx 90% of the world's music artists =/

[BlackSkullz09]

This isnt Her real vocal tone, jive records make her sing high nasally tone. Her real vioce is in "luv the hurt away" from 1999 look it up on youtube.Britney needs to sing in her real done, its lower and stronger.

[smms92]

@xxgirliciousrulezxx Uhh type in you oughta know circus tour, she sings it live and kills it. dont try to act like you have britney all figured out. and btw, no one cares that you likes Gaga. Its not going to sway anyone in any direction. You have no impact on what britney does. You are irrelevant. Why are you even watching a britney related video if you don't like her?

[NormalIsGreat]

I love her. Her voice, her personality, her appearance, her spirit, everything. <3

[thechamp1314]

Britney>>>>>Gaga.

[TheKeyssie]

@thechamp1314 Britney ¬¬



[xxgirliciousrulezxx]

@thechamp1314 LOL, right. GAGA OWNS BRIT LIVE... cause she doesn't even sing live.

[thechamp1314]

@xxgirliciousrulezxx  Wrong Bitch Britney owns Gaga Live and not Live Deal with it!

[xxgirliciousrulezxx]

@thechamp1314 LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL stop making me laugh! I can't wait to see a LIVE [like no lipsyncing] showdown between the two of them. lol, dang, brit's gonna have a problem. sigh

[MoonPhaseHazuki]

@xxgirliciousrulezxx leave britney alone you can't compare two people who sing different songs and have different styles. Britney is still in teh music industry for 13 years so she's successful

[xxgirliciousrulezxx]

@MoonPhaseHazuki ...I didn't say she's not successful. people should mind their fuckin business and not join conversations they are not ORIGINALLY a part of.

[MoonPhaseHazuki]

@xxgirliciousrulezxx choose your words carefully i guess LOL makes it seem like your insulting her and the laugh part

[MoxieLiveAction]

@xxgirliciousrulezxx she'd be just fine♥ watch Britney Spears You Oughta Know....she sang it completely live for her circus tour♥

[xxgirliciousrulezxx]

@MoxieLiveAction show me a video where she sings live on the circus tour. puhlease.

[MoxieLiveAction]

@xxgirliciousrulezxx well you can look up any "You Oughta Know" videos from the tour. they're all live. She also sang "Everytime" (partially lol) live right here: /watch?v=-IHMQYpGw4g&feature=c­hannel_video_title

i hope these help!♥ You can find great videos when she used to sing live more often (before producers fell in love with autotune LOL) just by searching around too♥

[thechamp1314]

@xxgirliciousrulezxx Britney Legend Gaga is An JOBBER She can Gaga in her little Baby Crib. You must Love the New Generation Stars They Suck.

[xxgirliciousrulezxx]

@thechamp1314 dude you're grammar sucks. talk to me once you polish you're communication skills. what you said makes no sense whatsoever. "is an jobber" say that to yourself and TELL ME if that makes sense. WOW dumbass.

[Patrickx95]

@thechamp1314

Haha Britney isnt a legend :o

[thechamp1314]

@Patrickx95 Ya She is Bitch get Use too it

[nanuowa77]

Nice harmonies!!!!

[chakibplayer]

[xohyoufancy]

2:37 - 2:40

[daisyhinojosa23]

[thespecialcrew]

this is the wrong pitch :/

[CallMeJaii]

@thespecialcrew no its not. listen to it against the song, its the same

[thespecialcrew]

@CallMeJaii it's a different pitch. get better ears.

[chaotic87]

I LOve her VOICE!!! ♥♥

[imfuzzwuzz]

lol i like *moans* EH! bit at 0:43

[unofficialanonbabe]

absolutely love the way she says "like" so short and blunty and "paradiiiiiiise" like an angel!

[NOBODYSANGEL9]

@foosta026 So true people are so stupid they dont even know what auto tune sounds like haha (:

[autotrifero]

this is not the real version,...

[cesarisaias95]

@autotrifero No one said it was, it clearly says at the top its the Acapella version.

[JuvenileRecords3]

2:24! The growl lol that growl that made her famous damn her voice is sexy lol as is the rest of her;) but anyway the new song kicks ass ang so cool to see that shes not using any effects other than just some basic ones 

[pentra1962]

awesome :) those echos are lol without the music

[LuskyMedia]

Britney Spears was a really bitch...

But now she is a really Popstar!

Go Britney! :D

[MoonPhaseHazuki]

i can here some wah-wah but thats all it so its basically awesomeness with some echos added :D but SHES SO AWESOME lols i listened to baby one more time when i was 6 years old

[peedy19]

Making of 3 music video

[punkaaron69]

very nice quality!!

btw the bpm on this acapella is 133 if anyone needs the info

[Kiana12345678910]

there is SO much auto tune in this. it sounds like a freakinn' computer singing it. i dont see how you cant hear it.

[anomalousentity]

@Kiana12345678910 "so much auto tune"? i'm sure there were vocal adjustments of some sort, but certainly you can't compare them to something from t-pain, which is generally auto tune to the extreme.

and also please don't mistake auto tune for multi-tracking. there is a difference.

[fallinSkater]

ill make a real dubstep version of this shit song

[johnhelvyakam]

@fallinSkater do it man. i'll b the happiest people on earth!

[rct3madness21]

@fallinSkater Make it DrumStep :)

[CHRITORIC]

Yesssssssssssssssssssss. Finally, brit brit releases a single with like NO AUTO TUNE. Just awesomenessssssssssss :D. Cant fucking wait for the video Feb 13th! Choreo will be as close to slave 4 u as possible apparently.

[cuteXpuffy]

it isn't a song ..

that was funny

[TheAlienAndTheTree]

@cuteXpuffy haha ikr

[oldschoolnickrocks]

"...little HAZYYY" <3333

[britlovr54900]

<333 sooo amazing

[kevinhardy]

nice song

[crisstal1987]

awesome

[uniqued]

thanks for sharing! britney! :D

[NOBODYSANGEL9]

She's showing her voice more now(:

[BrodieJamesVEVO]

@NOBODYSANGEL9 I was actually thinking that when she released this, It does sound like she's had no autotune (: i like it

[tomx1704]

@NOBODYSANGEL9 i know im so glad shes actually singing ! i hope her album will be more singing this time rather than "talking" compared to blackout and circus!

[dancetool]

@NOBODYSANGEL9 (LOL) u clearly no nothing about music production.. shes dripping with melodyne , FX , and tuners.. listen to her early stuff N than this , sounds more like a robot than a human ..

funny how she can pull it off in the studio but not live ..hmmmmm

[NOBODYSANGEL9]

@dancetool well obviously gonna sound wierd cuz the way they made this acapella some of the beats are barely there but they are there and theirs 2 background vocals Britney and some other girl, Shes gonna start singing live more like she used to even her Managers Said that so i guess u can wait, search "britney spears circus era live vocals" then click on the first video, she might of not sing every show but she did sing on that tour.

[CenterStageMitch]

@dancetool how is that funny?? shes standing in a room singing this with a huge warmup and effects. if she sang this live it would sound bad because of all the dancing she would be doing

[TheTruth2life]

@NOBODYSANGEL9 No offence to britney but i think she should hide her voice a little more !!

[MrPhantompants]

@NOBODYSANGEL9 yeh they fully dont change it at all herpderp

[nokia6630videos]

@Ahmedali323 so ?

[BASSER81]

@Ahmedali323 No I can tell you as a sound engineer she isnt auto tuned here! Her harmonies on the chores and verses are but the main vocal isnt!

[GraceyKatie]

@Ahmedali323 she isnt even autotuned that much. I know it sounds like it, but shes only autotuned a little bit. Its just her natural voice, go listen to her really singing. And I mean REALLY.

[iStutterbug]

@Ahmedali323 So she still has a good voice, go to videos when she was younger and was just singing live. Like around her kid and teen ages. She had a wonderful voice (has?). But now a days to survive in the business you have to autotune everything.

[nathybe123]

Britney sounds amazing! GO BRITNEY! :D

[saltnpeper18]

britney voice amazing - SIMPLE!!!

[3ritneyTV]

You did a great job :D

[TheBoomboom120]
