What a classic Britney Spears song, it's so wonderful how many people have covered such an amazing song from the artist of our generation. Bow down to the Queen of PoP!
Wow the original was awful....yet travis has actually made this song ridiculously good. The tempo, performance, composition really brings the lyrics out, and they are actually good haha. The lyrics are totally overlooked in britneys version, but her song writer was definately talented.
I give Britney her dues. I've never been a big fan. This cover originally started as a joke. In my opinion a funny joke. I like it. You just have to take it for what it is. So all of you teenage girls out there just calm down...it's only a cover.
@TheQueenBrit there are hundreds of people who could have made it a hit......there is nothing unique about britney spears except maybe that she is the richest hillbilly in the world.....like i said she is a puppet lol...
This cover makes this song a lot more than Britney ever would be able to make out of it. It is a lot more emotional, it's a lot more intense and a lot more beautiful. These guys love music and they love their instruments - you can hear all this. They play by heart! I'm amazed!
@Messylin Nope...Britney is the Sara Palin of pop musicians. It is abundantly clear that she has absolutely no idea what the lyrics mean in her version of this song. Britney produces the pop equivalent of disposable Styrofoam cups--his band took a piece of cultural garbage and made it timeless.
@Jacksona99 - what absolute bloody rubbish. Britney is an innate dancer and performer - the muse in popular culture for hundreds of professional musicians, producers and video directors. The fire in her eyes with that first music video, the passion, the provocation was iconic and game changing. This Travis cover is timeless only to the hipster contingent - a thankful minority.
@Messylin Yeah singing live and playing instruments, that is so like hipster. Britney was cute and could do cheerleader dance moves (no mention of her voice?).
@TobiasRMusic Yeah I know. I was just being one of those internet douches that points out incorrect parts of what people comment because it affects me directly (sarcasm) What I was saying is that Hit Me Baby One More Time is not a cover for Britney Spears because she is the original artist. If somebody else sings it then it would then be a cover i.e. Travis's version.
some tricks, worth to try if you want to see "perfect" video without lag . Open 2 tabs of this video, play both, but one of them muted. Adjust the sound with their performance moves precisely.. sounds ridiculous, but some people love details ^__^
esta rola me gusta en si pero britney le da un toque hermoso y bueno ambas son versiones son buenas pero britney la hizo para ella y es solo para ella bien por britney spears
thier biggie attemt to make dinero fell flat on its face . at the end of the day travis are boring. if anybody can come up with an alternative connatation that is better suited to this dryness then be my guest
I really love Travis... don't ge me wrong, I do! ...but this cover... I don't think they got it right this time, the performance is a bit too... eh, soft, it need a little bit more of guts
@Luizim3 92^^ hey there is one question I ask me after this
everybody knows, that britney never wrote her own songs. . .sooo maybe HE wrote this song and this is the true ORIGINAL VERSION cus it sounds way better
Oh, by the way, an open comment to those festering, decaying cunts at UMG. Now that I have seen this video, I think I'll buy some music by Travis. Do you see what happens when you DON'T block videos? Do you see? Do you see, you cunts?
I heard this on Napster, many many moons ago...let's say 11-12 years ago. This led me to fall in love with the band and their original stuff. Not even Britney can hold a candle to this performance. Fran is much cuter...lol!
This is such a much better version than the original, even though I think it's Britney's best song, next to "Oops". I often use it in the Synagogue, it gets the younger generation singing :-)
this song will never get old!!! ~~That's why my band played a rock version mashup of this song and POKER FACE. i want to know what you guys think of it!
It's not true that Travis did this to ridicule the song or Britney. Fran has said in interviews he LOVED the single and thought that it was one of the best pop songs of the previous year. The fact that he puts so much emotion into singing it just shows how much he likes the song.
Originally this was not a cover done by that they really like the song ... but an attempt to ridicule Britney Spears ... Although this Cover with bad intentions (rather jokingly) end up getting a Cover to forget because it is not good ... Too good ... and keep on listening because the fans loved it ... including ...
