Don't get me wrong, I have and love every Britney Spears dvd. This one is still my favorite though. Maybe because I love the setting, the gorgeous sandy beaches of Hawaii! You get one of the best concerts Britney has ever given, on a stage in Hawaii. It's a concert I saw in person (not in Hawaii but on this particular tour) and it is always incredible. She looks great, the outfits are great, the dance moves and singing are up to par as usual. I love the features of Britney going to a classroom of adorable Hawaiian kids, and going to give a big fan a surprise visit. Also her learning to do the hula and swimming with dolphins, and hanging out in a boat with some of her oldest friends. It has 3 music vids, my favorite is Stronger. She's never looked more gorgeous and I want that black outfit for myself! It's just great, including the stormy atmosphere to the vid. The SNL scenes are funny, especially with Britney as ghetto teen Dawn Palowski, and I love her SNL performances, introduced by the talented Sarah Michelle Gellar! My favorite is when she sings Oops! on SNL because I really love that outfit! I'd take her whole wardrobe, it's awesome. If you're building a Britney collection don't leave out this dvd.

Whatever. Everyone knows that when you're in concert and dancing your @$$ of, it's gonna be a bit difficult to sing. And think about when she put the CD together. She sings just fine on the CD, so don't cut her singing down when she's in concert because you couldn't sing every note exactly the way it should be if you were in concert.

It has 3 muzic videos: "Oops!...I Did It Again", "Lucky", and "Stronger"; her concert in Hawaii, and her skits/performances 4 Saterday Night Live; jukebox where you can watch her clips in the order that you want; pix gallery. It is kinda a long DVD, so you might get bored, but it's still kool.

This is an amazing video with great songs performed by a icon as of today!

Did everyone reviewing this fail to realize that this was LIVE-not lip-syched-LIVE!!!! She can't sing and has yet to do anything close to Madonna or Janet's early work. She will never do a "Like a Virgin" because she isn't an artist.

This is a great DVD, with all of her sultry music-videos. Britney's at it, again. She's so graceful and very talented on stage. She can dance with the best of 'em. However, her acting skills are another story: There's a shoddy "SNL" skit of her on "Live and More!" smoking a cigarette. (Good job, Britney. It's nice to know you're setting an example for our young people by "lighting-up.") The music videos on this DVD are awesome, nonetheless! Some of the scenes were filmed on location, at the beautiful sun-kissed beaches in and around Honolulu, Hawaii and Waikiki Beach. There's a little bit of serendipity going on, when Britney goes to this young girls house (w/ camera crews in-tow), to pleasantly surprising one of her biggest fans at her house on the island. She knocks at the door, and there she is. It was so gratifying to see the smile on this starstruck girl's face, boisterously jumping up and down. She was so excited to see one of her favorite idols. Meanwhile, she's calling every one of her friends to invite them over, for this "once in a lifetime" opportunity to get to hang-out with Britney. They all had their picture taken with the "sexy diva," and recieved these autographs from her. Bottom line: Great performances of Britney and Company. Other than that, she's so out of place in the realm of being an actress. She ought to take some acting lessons from Madonna, that way she'll be able to "make-it-to-the-top" someday. Perhaps, she'll maybe land a co-starring role in a suspenceful, erotic-thriller with the likes of Collin Farrel or Justin Guarrini from "American Idol." (If she ever got with Justin, it would make me want to puke. The dude reminds me of Sideshow Bob, from "The Simpsons." LOL!) All things considered: I give Britney Spears - "Live and More!" ***4-stars***.

I think that Britney Spears is the best female artist since Madonna. Her style and songs keep on changing with the times and she really is turning out to be a younger version of Madonna! After the multi-million selling debut home video Time Out With Britney, she returned in December 2000 with Britney Spears: Live And More. This home video is jam-packed with all things Britney! From amazing concert performances in Hawaii, to massive instantly-worldwide recognisable music videos and exclusive interviews and surprises to TV skits, Britney Spears: Live And More really is essential for every Britney fan in the world...

Britney Spears: Live And More begins with Britney's concert from May 2000 on Waikiki beach, Hawaii, USA to promote her epic second album Oops!...I Did It Again which has sold 21 million copies worldwide to date! Britney sings, dances and struts her stuff through massive worldwide hits such as (You Drive Me) Crazy, Oops!...I Did It Again, Sometimes, Born To Make You Happy, Don't Let Me Be The Last To Know, From The Bottom Of My Broken Heart and the finale for Britney's biggest hit ever, Baby One More Time! This amazing open-air concert showcases Britney's phenomenal dancing skills and her sweet voice. The 20,000 fans that pack the beach are so hyper and eccentric - they really are enjoying themselves! Earlier in 2000, Britney appeared on Saturday Night Live - America's top-rated comedy chat show. Not only did Britney appear on the show, she hosted the entire thing. The skits include Britney Hangs With Woodrow, where Britney hangs out with a man that lives in a sewer! There's also try-outs for her tour where Britney auditions lots of bad singers/dancers. But the best skit has to be Morning Latte. Britney stars as Dawn Paslowski and is dissing Britney left, right and centre! It really is funny. The humour is very American and because I'm British, I don't really find it all that amusing...but you just have to make an excuse for Britney, don't you?! Along with the concert in Hawaii, Britney gets to hang out with her dancers and check out the culture of the place, visit places of significant meaning to the residents of the land, pay surprise visits to schools (they nearly all faint!) and invite a girls' best mates around to her house to hang out with Britney for half an hour (believe me when I say I would do ANYTHING to hang with Britney for half an hour!). As if Live And More couldn't get any better, they throw in the full three music videos to Britney's massive hits Oops!...I Did It Again, Lucky and Stronger - all were taken from her huge second album Oops!...I Did It Again and all the videos are brilliant. I especially like the Oops!...I Did It Again video because it's set on Mars and Britney is like the Queen of the land in her slinky red catsuit as she seduces the object of her affection without breaking a sweat. The Lucky video follows a troubled female movie star. The lyrics, "If there's nothing missing in my life, then why do these tears come at night?" are very true to the video and maybe it's a personal reference to Britney's real life. The Stronger video is very dark and gothic even! No, that can't be! Britney? A goth? Not in my book, sister!

OVERALL GRADE: 10/10

All in all, Live And More is an essential video for all you Britney fans out there. If you don't have it, shame on you! And more importantly for the people who don't own it, why not?! Eh?! But seriously now, Live And More is one of Britney's best home videos to date out of Time Out With Britney, Britney: The Videos, Live From Las Vegas and Crossroads. But make sure you buy Live And More from Amazon.com now!

I'll admit I like her music and I think she's super cute. This DVD is a jumble od Britney related bits and videos. There are some spots of her while on vacation, some clips from her appearance on SNL and of course her music videos. The videos which I think ore the main reason to get this DVD look great and sound great as well. The 5.1 realy adds to this DVD and sounds like she's right there playing a live show.
For any fan I'd say this would be a fun DVD and worth the money.

Live...and More is an entertaining look at Britney's trip to Hawaii. This VHS/DVD, depending on what you own, is fully equipped with videos, a live concert, personal time with Britney, and skits from her SNL appearance. I only wish that they wouldn't have cut everything up and mixed it around, and instead put on the full concert, the full SNL episode, then the videos with the personal Britney time afterwards. The downfall of owning the VHS is fast forwarding and rewinding through the whole video to find a specific performance or skit, which is especially hard because they are not grouped together. Anyhow, this is a great piece of Britney merchandise that should be owned by any Britney fan.
