Me Against the Music

Me Against the Music by Britney Spears feat. Madonna is featured in Britney/Brittany, the second episode of Season Two. It is sung by Brittany and Santana.

They sing it in a dream sequence while in Carl's office. As with Artie's Safety Dance, some of the other Glee members made small appearances in the video. These include Puck (who catches Brittany's hat), Tina, Finn, Rachel (Finn and Rachel are sitting behind a table), Kurt (sits on top of the bar), Quinn, Mercedes, and Mike, despite the fact that they did not play a major role in the scene.

Lyrics[]

Brittany with Santana:
All my people in the crowd
Grab a partner, take it down

Brittany (Santana):
It's me against the music (Uh uh)
It's just me (And me)
Yeah (Come on)
Who-ah

Santana (Brittany):
Hey Brittany (Are you ready?)
Uh-huh, are you? (Ooh)

And no one cares (It's whippin' my hair, it's pullin' my waist)
To hell with stares (The sweat is drippin' all over my face)
And no one's there (I'm the only one dancin' up in this place) (Santana: It's just me)
Tonight I'm here (Feel the beat of the drum, gotta get with that bass)

Brittany (Santana):
I'm up against the speaker, try'na take on the music
It's like a competition, me against the beat
I wanna get in the zone (Get in the zone)
I wanna get in the zone (I wanna get in the zone)
If you really wanna battle, saddle up and get your rhythm
Try'na hit it, chic-a-tah
In a minute I'ma take ya on (I'ma take ya on)
I'ma take ya on (I'ma take ya on)

Brittany and Santana (Santana with Brittany):
All my people on the floor
Let me see you dance (Let me see ya)
All my people wantin' more
Let me see you dance (I wanna see ya)
All my people round and round
Let me see you dance (Let me see ya)
All my people in the crowd
Let me see you dance (I wanna see ya)

So how would you like a friendly competition
Let's take on the song (Brittany: Let's take on the song) (Let's take on the song)
It's you and me baby, we're the music
Time to party all night long (Brittany: All night long) (Santana: All night long)

Brittany:
Oh, yeah
Let's go

Santana (Brittany):
We're almost there (I'm feelin' it bad and I can't explain)
My soul is bare (My hips are movin' at a rapid pace) (I'm going crazy)
Can you feel it burn (From the tip of my toes, runnin' through my veins) (Oh)
And now's your turn (Let me see what you got, don't hesitate) (Here we go!)

Brittany (Santana):
I'm up against the speaker, try'na take on the music
It's like a competition, me against the beat
I wanna get in the zone (I wanna get in the zone)
I wanna get in the zone (I wanna get in the zone)
If you really wanna battle, saddle up and get your rhythm
Try'na hit it, chic-a-tah
In a minute I'ma take ya on (I'ma take ya on)
I'ma take ya on (I'ma take ya on)

Brittany and Santana (Santana with Brittany):
All my people on the floor
Let me see you dance (Let me see ya)
All my people wantin' more
Let me see you dance (I wanna see ya)
All my people round and round
Let me see you dance (Let me see ya)
All my people in the crowd
Let me see you dance (I wanna see ya)

Brittany and Santana (Brittany):
Get on the floor
Baby lose control (Yeah)
Just work your body (Uh-huh)
And let it go (Let it go)
If you wanna party
Just grab somebody
(Santana: Hey Brittany) we can dance all night long

Santana:
Hey Brittany, you say you wanna lose control
Come over here, I got somethin' to show ya
Sexy lady, I'd rather see you bare your soul
If you think you're so hot, better show me what you got

Santana (and Brittany):
All my people in the crowd
(Let me see you dance)
Come on Brittany lose control
(Watch you take it down)

Brittany and Santana:
Get on the floor
Baby lose control
Just work your body
And let it go
If you wanna party
Just grab somebody
(Santana: Hey Brittany) we can dance all night long

Brittany and Santana (Santana with Brittany):
All my people (Brittany: On the floor)
(Santana: Say) Let me see you dance (Let me see ya)
All my people (Brittany: Wantin' more)
(Santana: Say) Let me see you dance (I wanna see ya)
All my people (Brittany: Round and round)
(Santana: Say) Let me see you dance (Let me see ya)
All my people (Brittany: In the crowd)

Trivia[]

Mark Kanemura, a friend of Heather Morris, appears dancing with Brittany and sitting on the couch while Santana dances. He also appears in I'm a Slave 4 U as back-up dancer.
This is one of the performance which is slightly similar to the official music videos. The others being: Vogue, I'm a Slave 4 U, Baby One More Time, Scream, Black or White, It's Not Right But It's Okay, This Is the New Year, Nasty/Rhythm Nation, Take on Me and Thousand Miles.
Some of the choreography is used in the live performance of I'm a Slave 4 U.

Mistakes[]

Towards the end, where Britney meets Brittany, Britney Spears' bracelet goes missing between a side shot and the shot of Brittany.
While Santana is on the swing you can see Naya's back tattoo.
