My kids (12 and 10) consider Britney Spears "uncool" and apparently so do their peers. But we used to say that about Barry Manilow and Neil Diamond when I was a kid and while those artists would sell tens of millions of records, not a single person would admit to owning one.

Though if my kids did like Britney Spears, I couldn't complain that much. When I was their age, I was listening to Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin. Now THOSE were the days...

Black Sabbath is far better for your kids. Get them gooked on Metallica too and they will turn out to be fine upstanding citizens. Hey, just look how good I turned out!

Indeed, I have yet to meet one person who owns a Cher album, but yet she supposedly has top ten hits!!! I promise never in my life have I gone to visit someone and that person want to play their latest Cher album. Sadly and oh so regretably back in 1973 I bought a Streisand album. But, I can claim the ignorance of youth on that one..... I promise to not buy Britney (sp) album though.

Britney is a joke as far as having any musical talent. All she does is lip-synch when she's anywhere out of the studio.
