‘Gimme More’ is Spears’ new single

It seems like forever since Britney Spears had six-pack abs and a hit song on the charts. But the fallen pop princess -- tarnished by a tumultuous divorce, late-night partying and erratic behavior -- is trying to get her music career back on track.

For real this time.

Her new single, “Gimme More,” debuted Thursday night on the website of New York City pop station Z100 (www.z100.com); there’s a video on YouTube; and a new album is due for release Nov. 13 by Jive Records, the label’s representative, Wendy Washington, said Friday.

“Gimme More” -- a clubby, flirty dance track produced by Danja, a protégé of hit-maker Timbaland -- has the 25-year-old singer bringing back the thumping beats and breathy come-ons of her pop-star past.
