Whiplash (Selena Gomez & the Scene song)
"Whiplash" is a song by American band Selena Gomez & the Scene, from their third studio album ''When the Sun Goes Down'' (2011). The song was originally written for Britney Spears; after she started working on her sixth studio album ''Circus'' (2008), Spears contacted Nicole Morier to write songs with her. Together, they wrote "Mmm Papi", "Rock Me In" and "Whiplash". The latter, which was produced by co-writer Greg Kurstin, failed to make the album. In 2011, Selena Gomez recorded the song with her band for ''When the Sun Goes Down''.
"Whiplash" is a dance song with influences of electro, relying heavily on the usage of synthesizers. The pre-chorus has a sing-rap section in which Gomez delivers the lyrics in a thick British accent. "Whiplash" is musically different and much more aggressive than the rest of the album, and its lyrics speak of a blossoming romance; it has been compared to the work of Spears. "Whiplash" received mixed to positive reviews. While some critics called it one of the standout tracks of ''When the Sun Goes Down'', others dismissed its rap sections and lyrics. Selena Gomez & the Scene performed the song at shows while on the We Own the Night Tour (2011).
==Background==
"Whiplash" was written and produced by Greg Kurstin, with additional writing by Nicole Morier and Britney Spears.〔 The latter had recorded "Heaven on Earth", written by Morier and songwriting team Freescha, for her fifth studio album ''Blackout'' (2007). During an interview with ''On Air with Ryan Seacrest'', Spears named the song her favorite from the album. When she started recording her sixth studio album ''Circus'' (2008), she contacted Morier to write songs with her. When the two were in the studio, they asked Kurstin to give them tracks.〔 Among the songs they worked on were "Mmm Papi", "Rock Me In" and "Whiplash". Both wanted to do something that Spears had not done before.〔 "Mmm Papi" and "Rock Me In" were included in ''Circus''; however, "Whiplash" failed to make the cut. Morier explained, "There’s a couple songs we started that were great ideas but just incomplete. Maybe we’ll hear them with fresh ears someday and put them out, but I usually just like to start anew."〔
On April 11, 2011, it was reported by MTV News that "Whiplash" would be recorded by Selena Gomez & the Scene for their third studio album ''When the Sun Goes Down''. Lead singer Selena Gomez is a Spears fan, and after Kurstin played her the track for the first time, she "fell in love with it", unaware of Spears's contribution to the song. Gomez explained, "I came and sang and saw that she had co-written it, so I was very excited. () It was an honor and I'm completely stoked." The song leaked online in early June 2011, several weeks prior to the album's release.〔
