The album turns 17 this year!

An album what really changed female pop music in my opinion.

So many females have tried to create their own stripped in my opinion but none come close.

Like Rihanna’s Good Girl Gone Bad, Mileys Bangerz, Arianas Dangerous Woman, Selenas Revival and Demi’s last two albums are very I’m grown up now and this is what I want to say but Stripped is the all time best. P!nk also done a good job with Misunderztood too.

Stripped I now believe it’s now sold 2m in UK despite just missing out on a #1 spot.

She really was huge during this era in the UK and Europe.

5 top ten singles including two #1s.

What are people’s thoughts is it your favourite Xtina era.

I’d probably say it’s my favourite female pop album OF ALL TIME. Untouchable it’s full of so many styles and it’s just a well thought out brilliant pop album.

Tracklisting

1. Stripped Intro
2. Can’t Hold Us Down
3. Walk Away
4. Fighter
5. Primer Amor Interlude

It’s definitely her best material. I went to see her live at the time and she was great.

A long time since I’ve listened to it so I may have to take a delve soon to remind myself of the album tracks.

Fabulous album.... you're right, it struck me now that the album didn't hit #1 on both sides of the pond. Also, Dirrty didn't even make US Top 40! My favourite song on this album was "get mine get yours".

It's great, but I don't think I would call it a "game changer" for anyone... it's quite of its time, but she really managed to hit all the right beats.

The only complaint is that (obviously) the album is a bit bloated.

I get why some may feel it’s bloated but I honestly couldn’t pick a song to get rid of.

If I absolutely had to maybe Get Mine Get Yours but everything else belongs on there in my opinion.

Love the intro and interludes too. P

Amazing album! I never liked Christina in her first era but this album made me a huge fan! It’s perfection from start to finish!

Overrated album. Too many slow songs on there. Songs that I could do without are 'Impossible', 'Underappreciated', 'Soar' and especially the album closer 'Keep on Singing My Song'.

'Make Over' is iconic and I love that the Sugababes got a writing credit on it.

I think it's a bit overrated as a whole album, the singles are all iconic though - what a run *.*

One of my fave albums of all time and honestly one of the best singles campaigns of any pop artist ever.

I was always gutted that 'Make Over' was never a single. It was one of my go-to songs while having pre-drinks back in my clubbing days. Good times. wub.gif

'Cruz' remains one of my favourite ever songs. It's a song which means a lot to me.

One of my all time favourite albums. Every single song is amazing. Perfect single choices and brilliant videos (I still live for the Fighter video).

Truly amazing pop album. Standout singles for me Dirrty and The Voice Within even though they are all great. Would've loved Infatuation to have been a summer hit for her though. Very underrated in her back catalogue.

Love to know the meaning of that song title.

But I love it. Probably my favourite album track alongside Soar and Walk Away.

I knew it sold well, but I'm surprised it made it all the way to #6! Kind of surprised at Missundaztood (ugh, Pink and her spelling) made it into the top ten, but I guess it sold well and kept selling with her comebacks.

X ED SHEERAN 2014

Whilst we had this trash, Coldplay had a brilliant album called X and Y that isn't even top 20! Sigh.

10. COAST TO COAST WESTLIFE 2002

EEEWWWWWWW

Just noticed Xtina was the highest international act on that listen! And the highest non #1 album too.

Wow blink.gif

She really deserved better longevity but it’s surreal seeing Stripped outselling Pink and Britneys biggest selling albums. I’m shocked Britney didn’t manage to get on this list tbh with Oops I Did It Again.
