    One word to describe this album is euphoric. This is Britney at her best. The style and vibe of this album are different from her previous work, but they are just as good as the music she made at her peak.

    Pop veteran, Britney Spears, delivered an album that her fans been waiting for, a worthy follow-up to the one/two punch that were "In The Zone" and "Blackout."

    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.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This album is decidedly my favourite album from Britney out of all 9 albums. This spot used to be In The Zone, but Glory has overtaken it. I was totally taken aback and had chills all over my body when the opening track 'Invitation' started. Songs like 'Just Luv Me', 'Man On The Moon', 'Slumber Party' and 'Just Like Me' continued to give me that chilling sensation. I would call Glory her most romantic record up to date. Her voice is so emotive and special, on top of that slick ambient production. The use of guitar riffs in many of the songs are quite ear-candy. The whole album felt very cohesive and mature, with definitely
    her best lyrics up to date. Furthermore, Britney challenged herself vocally on songs like 'Private Show' and 'What You Need' which really shocked me and brought such joy to my listening experience. This will be a highlight of her career! I realy have to mention 'Man On The Moon' as my favourite track because it brought tears to my eyes. There is something heartbreakingly sad about the song and just so romantic!    … Expand

After "Britney Jean" and the misfire that was, I thought Britney's career was over. Boy, did she prove me wrong. Returning with this bob, filled with great songs, such as "Love Me Down", "Make Me" and the haunting "Coupure Electrique", she's clearly here to rule. Sounding more involved and happy than ever, she seems to have been responsible for every single phase of this album's creation. She blends R & B with pop and sometimes EDM and it's beyond any doubt that she does it really really well. Also, it's probably her only album to not include any filler-songs. Almost everything here could be huge. From the retro heaven "Slumber Party" to the aggressively fantastic "Liar". Furthermore , her voice is incredibly genuine here and almost not processed at all. She's done huge progress and it's only fitting that we applaud her for that. The only issue is that the bonus tracks are so good that it seems sad they aren't part of the standard edition. It's club-friendly, it's modern, it's everything fans could have expected and more. It's like a lovechild to "Blackout" and "In The Zone", her other two best albums. Probably the best pop album of 2016 so far, it's so addictive. A must of this year! She really defied my expectations.… Expand

    I always liked Britney in many ways, but all of her previous albums since In the Zone didn't show much effort from her, at least that's what I feel. Glory is the perfect rebirth for her, all of the songs fit into the sounds that we want to hear today. Man on the Moon is so beautiful

    With Glory, she made her best album since almost 10 years!
    Her lead, Make Me..., is the only featuring on the album, and it was a good choice as first single. Really good album, with some french & spanish songs, I Like It!

    Good songs: ALL ♥ (but especially: Make Me..., Do You Wanna Come Over?, Liar, Change Your Mind (No Seas Cortés))

    I'm really surprised by Britney's work on this album, wasn't expecting all the experimental sounds that goes perfect with her voice that she is actually using now, her fans have been asking for something like this and finally it seems like she did it, sex is obviously the motor of this album and i'm not complaining, we can hear a more mature Britney

    Glory is finally here and it's the best thing from Britney in many years. The album is very different sound-wise, Britney vocals are in the right spot and were very well explored. The songs range from club-bangers to soft tracks, caressing the ears. Glory is a great piece of art.

    ''Glory'' is the ninth studio album by Britney. It's very different from the last one which wasn't so good. This new record recalls old style music meeting modern sounds. It has a very european sound. It's a crescendo, in fact the rhythm grows track after track. It's a POP record at 100% mixed with electro, pop-rock, raggae, soul and r'n'b. You would be surprised.

    Definitely one of her best albums, fresh, different and unexpected. An album that should be listened by everyone, cause it sounds like nothing that Britney has done before. Britney goes far away from the electronic sound that characterizes her last 2 albums and goes with a more mid-tempo sound, without losing that "Britney touch" that's always present in what she does.

Spears even dabs with foreign languages, "Coupure Électrique" being completely in French and "Change Your Mind (No Seas Cortés)" with a Spanish line here and there. The material makes sure to leave you with great lyrics ("Man On The Moon"), catchy melodies ("Liar"), crisp modern beats ("Do You Wanna Come Over?") and Spears' mystique. As far as pop music goes, this is the best it gets.

Every song is unique and memorable. The production is really good, the lyrics are beautiful in songs like Invitation, Man On The Moon or Just Luv Me. Some songs are really catchy like Love Me Down, Change Your Mind (No Seas Cortes), Slumber Party. Miss Spears' vocals are impressive and better than ever, she has trained hard to deliver a quality album. The other pop singers like Lady Gaga, Beyoncé or Ariana Grande will definitely take some inspiration from Britney's new album, Glory. Oops...! She did it again.    … Expand

Britney is in her best here exploring new sounds, new vibes and showing us sides of your voice that we didn't notice for a long time. From Invitation, a sexy and powerful mid-tempo song that opens the album, coming across Do You Wanna Come Over, a banger for your nightlife in a fresh and funny way to Slumber Party, the highlight of the album where Britney takes you on a journey trough reggae and soft pop, there's no way for you to keep still. She know what she's doing. And if you want more, it's a good deal check it all deluxe's tracks Liar, an explosive bang bang with a furious lyric and If I'm Dancing, another bang track that could bring you to Brazil instantly. It's a fun path to go and Britney takes us all marvelously.… Expand

    An incredible, cohesive and mature album from our beloved princess of pop. On 'Glory', Britney demonstrated her capacity to produce excellent pop records and cements her status a true legend. Glory is a perfect addition to the Britney canon.

    This album is the best of these years, it has a new concept from her past work, vocally and musically. It almost gives a feeling like you are listening to an evolution of Britney, from which she evolved to remain top of the game in this industry.

    This is literally her 2nd best album, just behind Blackout. Her voice sounds not too much auto-tuned, and every tracks have different vibes. It shows a mature side of Britney as Glory not a generic pop album like most of albums nowadays. So proud of her. Keep it up Princess Of Pop.

    It's a masterpiece, concrete and out of a comfort zone at the same time that it's what she does best. The vocals are glorious, they remind me of the Oops and Baby eras sometimes. Daring like Blackout and In The Zone, confident like Britney, persuasive and strong like Circus and fun like Femme Fatale.

    Inesperadamente, a sua voz está limpa, clara e perfeitamente sexy e nós podemos sentir a Britney "de antes" novamente entre nós, sentir a emoção dela no estúdio e não apenas alguém que realizou a gravação.
    "Ela fez de novo" e nos deu essa maravilha!
    Com certeza, o melhor álbum de música pop de 2016.

    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.
