5.0 out of 5 stars Don't Let Me Be The Last To Know - Britney's best ballad?, December 20, 2002

Well, the answer to the title above for me is no. While Don't Let Me Be The Last To Know is a beautiful and superbly produced ballad, I think I'm Not A Girl, Not Yet A Woman is better. Don't Let Me Be The Last To Know was the fourth and final single to be taken from Britney's No.1 multi-million selling second album Oops!...I Did It Again. The song peaked at No.12 in the UK in April 2001 and was her lowest charting single in the UK, recently beaten by I Love Rock 'N' Roll which peaked at No.13 in November 2002. I think it's a great shame that Don't Let Me Be The Last To Know charted so low, because it shows Britney at her most mellow and serious. The song was written by Shania Twain and has some of the most beautiful lyrics heard in a long time. The song has a sort of Chinese beat going on in the background with a seductive and enchanting bassline. "My friends say you're so into me - and that you need me desperately. They say you say we're so complete. But I need to hear it straight from you - if you want me to believe it's true," sings Britney in the first verse of this amazing ballad. Each Britney album seems to have its main ballad - Baby One More Time had From The Bottom Of My Broken Heart/Born To Make You Happy, Britney had I'm Not A Girl, Not Yet A Woman and Oops!...I Did It Again had this, Don't Let Me Be The Last To Know.

While Don't Let Me Be The Last To Know is worthy of a 5-star rating without hesitation, it's tracks 2 and 3 which make this CD single so essential. Track 2 is Oops!...I Did It Again - Riprock 'n' Alex G's Oops! We Remixed Again (Radio Mix). This remix starts off so amazing - like a soundwave being stretched and pulled so far that it flicks back...if that makes any kind of sense! This remix is very futuristic with some superb beats. The bit where Britney goes, "I'm not that" for about 16 times in a row is brilliant but repetative! Track 3 is Stronger (MacQuale Mix Show Edit). This remix of Britney superb smash hit Stronger is much better than the remix that features on the Stronger single. Finally, as if this CD couldn't get any better, you also get the video to Don't Let Me Be The Last To Know! This saucy and controversial beach video is definitely Britney's most natural and laid-back. Overall, this is another essential Britney single - buy it now from Amazon.com!

3.0 out of 5 stars not that impressed, August 20, 2001

This review is from: Don't Let Me Be the Last to Know (Audio CD)

When I bought this single I thought that I was buying the other DLMBTLTK Pt.2 with the album version and two mixes of stronger instead this only had the album version of DLMBTLTK and one mix of OIDIA that I already had and one mix of stronger that I already. It has the video of DLMBTLTK which is only able to play on mac computer....

5.0 out of 5 stars Don't let me be the last to know and more, March 29, 2001

This review is from: Don't Let Me Be the Last to Know (Audio CD)

This cd is great. It's got the Don't let me be the last to know video on it. It's also got a remix of Stronger and Oops I did it again. It's the 2nd cd in a 2cd set. The first one of this single from Europe is called Don't let me be the last to know #1. This is Don't let me be the last to know #2. Britney is the best singer in the world and as Rolling Stone or New York Times or somebody put it, the video is sizzling. This cd is better than the first one because it has the video and stronger and oops remixes. The first one only has the radio edit of DLMBTLTK and two other remixes of it. Get this and you won't be sorry.
