    This album is everything you would want from a Britney album. Every song could be a stand-alone single! My highlights are Private Show, Man On The Moon, Slumber Party and Change Your Mind.

    I never told I would be able to say again that britney did the best album of the years, it's all we ever wanted from her, a little bit of heart and sexiness, she's grown a lot since britney Jean and she let it show this on Glory really proud of her.

    Her best album since Blackout and so far 2016's best album! She sounds confident and sexy, and she deserves all the glory that this album can get her! Epic Comeback.

    Easily one of the best albums of the year, and definitely a ground-breaking album for Spears'. It mixes various different genres of music (Country, Dark, Pop, EDM, RnB and others) in a glorious masterpiece.

    Album digno de ser ouvido, sem dúvidas é um retorno glorioso da princesa do pop. Sonoridade bem tranquila, arranjos muito bem trabalhados, soa muito com uma mistura de in the zone com blackout.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. While Britney may not write about political stances and deep opinions (hello from 1998: she never has), she still holds the record in being capable of making fun, dance-worthy pop. Britney's personal touch, aside from her ad-libs, is in the music itself. Much like "Britney", "In The Zone", and "Blackout", you can feel Britney's signature touch and her personal style throughout all of…… Expand

    definitely album of the year and Britney's best album after Blackout! Best songs in my opinion: Do You Wanna Come Over, Change Your Mind, Liar, If I'm dancing, Coupure Électrique and Love Me Down.

    This is by far the best Britney Spears album, all the songs are very good and Britney's vocals in this album is so phenomenal. You can tell that Britney Spears really spent a lot of time in the creative process of this album and it came out unbelievably perfect! 10/10

    To be honest, I was expecting a bit more. While the instrumentals are good overall (since In The Zone or Blackout, Britney didn't manage to bring instrumentals as good as the ones on this album), her vocals are so overproduced that almost made me stop listening to the album at some points.
    The concept is good but the production when it comes to her vocals are a mess.

    Escutar o Glory é um pouco Nostálgico, pois você sente aquele POP característico, porém de forma contemporânea. Ainda consegue se embebedar de várias fontes, pois as musicas possuem ritmos diferentes. Realmente Glorioso.

    18 years into her career, pop icon Britney Spears does it AGAIN and delivers what could be her finest piece of art yet. Vocally, lyrically and soundwise - Britney definitely wins this one.

    En lo persona es uno de los mejores album que puede tener Britney, son ritmos diferentes, esencia que se ha perdido con el tiempo pero que retomó con fuerzas. En lo persona está al nivel de In the zone, incluso siento que esto ha traído una era que Britney, los antis y los mismos medios hicieron que se esfumara luego de su época oscura.

    Una Britney radiante, un cd fresco, divertido,    En lo persona es uno de los mejores album que puede tener Britney, son ritmos diferentes, esencia que se ha perdido con el tiempo pero que retomó con fuerzas.

    Best pop album of 2016? So far, yeah probably. Best Britney album? Unfortunately, on the whole, it doesn't quite match the freshness of Blackout or sexiness of In The Zone. But Brit Brit does sound better than she's had in a while and you can tell she's having fun being in control again.

    Although it marks no significant shift in style--she’s still mining the same pop-R&B seam--it’s undoubtedly a better effort than its predecessor.

    Like Britney herself, Glory is a fascinating if flawed listen--while she remains very much a singles artist, this is her most successful record in a while, and still contains glimpses of why she remains so compelling, 18 years into her career.

    Glory is no masterpiece, but it’s a marked improvement on 2013’s ‘Britney Jean’, a messy attempt to merge thumping EDM tunes with supposedly reflective midtempo songs.
