Britney Spears – He About To Lose Me

  General Comment:I love this song, I just feel conected with this song even befer I knew what was it about.
  I think this song tries to represent how is she feeling when she's been ignored, is about how despised she feels and how she needs to be mor appreciated so she would be tempted to be with someone else.

  I like this part right here in the beginning and the last lyrics of the end. Following | by my interpretation.
  
  I'm touching hands with someone seriously beautiful | As opposed to someone trivially good looking
  
  I'm telling lies and if it shows I see that he don't care | Alludes to an affair, an understanding of an affair

  There's an internal conflict for the writer of this song. She feels some sort of irony and ambivalence. She knows what she's capable of doing, of whats "about" to happen. She feels sympathy for one guy whoever that "he" is. The mundane yet so deep understanding of lust. And how it converts itself into "love" and something seriously beautiful. It speaks volumes of Spears' ability to constantly reinvent herself through love. These techno-pop songs with ballad-like riffs and soulful beats like Unusual You, Amnesia, or this here-He About To Lose Me- are all symbolic of Spears' perpetual renewal vows of love and it should also speak of her talent, which is beyond remarkable, its worth some merit.

    The song is not about love. If one can be drawn into engaging in lust so easily than s/he was never in love....perhaps just in love with love's concept, but unwilling to go the distance that love requires. This song's lyrics are shallow; superficial; and rather pitiful. I'm guessing the subject of the song (the one tempted) will be cruizing the old people's mobile home parks when s/he's in his 60's and 70's while those who have found true love are snuggled up together inside their homes laughing; smiling; and enjoying real love.

    Oops, I did it again...I omitted the part that Spears CANNOT sing and she overuses auto tune (because she has to:)

    She's about to lose her boyfriend because she just doesn't feel it anymore and wants to be with the other guy instead.

  General Comment:This song to me is like Amnesia but a continuation of it, which was my current all time favorite up until this one.
  It basically just has the same context.
  The song isn't about cheating, but the power that lust has on us.
  Even if you don't agree to what the song stands for, you can't deny the truth behind it's meaning.
  It's just so dang catchy.
  Best Part:
  "Someone by the bar keeps looking at us dancing,
  I see him staring at me I see where he wants to be."
  
  That line just puts this captivating scene in my head.

  My Opinion:This is the best song on Femme Fetale. It's the only one with emotion and I consider it Femme Fetale's "Unusual You", just with different feeling. I absolutely adore this song, it's fabulous.
  
  I could add in my interpretation of this song, but ImitationofCait pretty much said everything.

  General Comment:Ahhh, I love this song!
  
  It's exactly how you feel when you're tempted to cheat. When you're dating someone who makes you feel unappreciated, and then you meet someone else who you have amazing chemistry with, you just want to give in to your temptations so badly.
