La Brit, she's back! And spraying down racehorses in slo-mo! Among other things.
In the new Dave Meyers-directed clip (he's worked with Spears before, on "Lucky," as well as with Pink, Jay-Z, and Kelly Clarkson), Britney plays lady of the manor, slinking around the grounds of a sumptuous estate, attending a polo match in full-on Kentucky Derby giant-hat mode, making eyes at various hot uniformed players (including a 5-o'-clock-shadowed K-Fed doppelganger).
What do you think, Music MIxers, besides the fact that it totally sounds like she's saying "Operator" instead of "On My Radar"? She looks hot, blond, and sane, like the classic Brit we know and love, but you tell me if clip — and the song — is what you seek from Amy.

Could she have possible have made a more boring video. Why she would release a song too that had been on Blackout instead of one like Unusual You, a much better song, is beyond me. Sorry but I find this yawn worthy.
I agree with Susan that “Unusual You” is a MUCH better song.
I love the video! The mood doesn’t match the song, but I still think the video is really well done!
Plus couldn’t they have done something more stylized and interesting with her hair than just Real Housewives of The O.C.-ing it?
So flat and banal.

This woman needs to start dancing. I’m not watching your videos to watch you walk and lip synch, I can get that fill from your Circus Tour. Dance – woman! DANCE!!
Why, why is this person relevant? Take away the voice & synthesizer mixers (or, most likely, the singer who’s dubbing Spears singing voice – ack, there’s someone with that wretched squeal), take away the high-priced choreographer & trainer… and what’s left behind the curtain? An uneducated, brainless, no-talent woman with a diagnosed mental disorder who, most likely, would still reside in her little town in the middle of nowhere. Sheesh. Stupid song. Stupid voice. Would this chick get lost?
Great. Love Britney. She is so hot: http://www.actressscene.com/search/label/Britney%20Spears
i’ve been a britney fan since her first single came out almost 11 years ago. this, by far, is her most boring video ever. the song is also really old. any other choice from circus would have been better.
I thought this was the best song on Blackout, Britney’s best record by far. I do think the video is pretty… but this song deserves a more edgy city/club vibe video. Oh well.
Marly, why is Britney relevant? Well, she’s been one of the most successful performers of the last decade, has sold million of records, and in my opinion is doing her best studio work to date. Dance-pop obviously isn’t your thing, but as it goes, Britney is ace.
the video quality was so bad I could barely tell what was going on, they should have put it on youtube.
Agreed that “Unusual You” is a much better song. This video was boring.
She is overhyped. Proof positive that ANYONE can be made intoa megastar. The fact that she ever shared the stage with the King of Pop or is being given a second chance after her break down baffles me… she has NO talent. She sounds like a mouse and can only dance in simply choregraphed 1,2, steps. ???
Evidence: check out this wretched performance with MJ: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kOG8lwvVSmo
Nice video, but it doesn’t really work for this song. “Radar” could have used a more futuristic treatment. This video is much more relaxed and pretty.
Boring song. Boring video. I didn’t even bother to finish watching it.
Leah: You hear “Operator,” I hear “Amaretto.”
