Blink your eyes and you'll miss it, but five seconds from Britney Spears's new video for her latest single, "Hold It Against Me," debuted on You Tube Friday, with 14 additional previews planned before the official premiere of the entire video on Feb. 17.
Careful observation of the quick cuts in the brief clip shows what appears to be Britney in a Cinderella-worthy ball gown singing before a sea of TV monitors. A worded message at the end of the clip reads: "13 Days to Go."
"Hold It Against Me" is the pop star's first single since 2009. The track features hard-driving verses and an airy chorus to tell the story of a romantic encounter she can't resist, no matter the consequences.
As she sings: "If I feel my heart was beating loud/If we could escape the crowd some how/If I said I want your body now/Would you hold it against me."
The number is produced by Spears's longtime collaborators Max Martin and Dr. Luke and is the official lead single from her seventh studio album, Femme Fatale, due in March from Jive Records.
"It's way more edgy than the last album," songwriter Claude Kelly, who composed several tracks for the album, recently told PEOPLE. He added that Spears, 29, is returning to the grittier sounds of 2007's Blackout. "[It's] more in the vein of the album before," he says.
