List of unreleased songs recorded by Britney Spears
- This is a dynamic list and may never be able to satisfy particular standards for completeness. You can help by expanding it with reliably sourced entries.
American singer Britney Spears has written and recorded material that has never been officially released. Several unreleased songs had been planned for inclusion on her studio albums Britney (2001), In the Zone (2003), The Original Doll (2005) (Unreleased)* Blackout (2007), Circus (2008), and Femme Fatale (2011), but were ultimately rejected. Below are registered tracks that have not been commercially released, but have gained media attention or were confirmed by Spears herself. Many of her unreleased songs have been registered (usually by her company Britney Spears Music) with professional bodies such as the United States Copyright Office, Broadcast Music Incorporated (BMI) and American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP).[1][2][3]
The pop singer's unreleased material includes songs recorded by Spears and demo versions, some co-written by artists such as Justin Timberlake and Lady Gaga. In 1997, Spears recorded "Today", originally meant for Toni Braxton. Snippets of "Rebellion" and "For My Sister" were released on Spears' official website in 2006. She has also co-written and recorded songs that were later given to other artists, such as sister Jamie Lynn Spears, American bandand Korean singer BoA. Several of Spears' songs have been leaked onto the Internet without gaining an official release. Some leaks throughout 2010 gained significant attention, including "When I Say So," "Am I a Sinner," "Mad Love," and "Telephone", which had previously been released by Gaga. A collection of songs that leaked on October 6, 2011 received the name of "Britmas".[4]
