YOU'RE A WOMANIZER: Britney Spears' new song has finally hit the airwaves.

Britney Spears is making her comeback - again. Britney's song Womanizer has finally hit airwaves, four days after its scheduled release and a week after a snippet was leaked.

The song is an upbeat if slightly repetitive electropop number lasting about four minutes.

It comes off Spears’ album Circus, which is set to be released on her 27th birthday on December 2. The song was produced by The Outsyders, a group based in Atlanta.

It has lyrics that include: "You say I’m crazy/ I got your crazy/You’re nothing but a womanizer".

In the song’s chorus, Britney sings, "Boy, don't try to front/I-I know just-just what you are/Womanizer, you’re a womanizer, baby."

In a snap judgment, the Los Angeles Times music blog Soundboard reached the conclusion that "Britney is back. She actually seems to be awake this time."

Last year in late August, Britney released a song, Gimme More, which was also billed as a "comeback" tunes after months of Britney finding herself making headlines for erratic behaviour.

At that time, she was embroiled in a bitter custody battle over her two sons with ex-husband Kevin Federline.

She sang Gimme More at the MTV Video Music Awards in September '07, but was panned by fans and critics. By January of this year, she found herself in a Los Angeles-area hospital under psychiatric evaluation.

But since February, after her father and lawyers took control of her affairs, Britney has seemed to be on the mend. In fact, at this year’s MTV VMAs, Britney won three awards for her song, Piece of Me.

The song rocks, so what if it's synthetised? It's got rythm, it makes you dance, and the vid is cool too. I wonder how many women can look so good after giving birth to 2 children. Her effort in getting her looks back must have been huge.

I like 'Womanizer' far more than her other style she tried when doing 'I'm a slave for you'.

I think shes bloody awesome... sexy, talented, so wat if shes normal- ya know who isnt?? Every 1 of us on the planet is flawed in some way most of us many ways. Being in the spotlight non stop no wonder she flips out every now and then-i would too. Her last album and her songs recently have been very good played heaps and enjoyed and sung by countless ppl. Be nice 2 her...

Come on leave her alone! She is making her come back and I actually enjoyed that song, likewise with the Blackout album. She always has awesome beats to her songs and are always catchy!

Its the Britney Spears that everyone knows. She's producing what people want to hear, and even though several of you are claiming how horrible it is, you still sat there and listened to it. Britney is popular, and she's not going anywhere any time soon. And, this song is awesome. No denying that.

I LOVE it! The style of the song is reminiscent of 80's with a modern twist and that's all the rage now. BUT, her voice is completely overrun by computer and very monotone. but the SONG is awesome. I wish she would write her own stuff and show more of her REAL voice!

I'm not ashamed to admit that i love her new song, it's a real grower and i love it. I loved Blackout, can't wait for her next album.
