April 30, 201015 yr NMT has jumped 10 places on the US itunes since the premiere And Christina's google results have gone from 17,600 to 18,200 on mine anyway. So things are slowly but surely moving, there's no hope for the US, but it's nice to see it moving. Also the first video preview is the third most watched video on the UK YouTube for the past few days and the #1 most viewed video in the music category, the latest preview is also rising. Once the actual video premieres on 4Music tomorrow it should take its place.
April 30, 201015 yr Am I the only one who loved it then :lol: ? It was really representative of the song and something different to the usual Aguilera that we see (which i guess is the whole point of the song/video) Btw: HQ Link for Non-US: http://www.popcrunch.com/christina-aguiler...-tonight-video/
April 30, 201015 yr Good review from DS Christina Aguilera: 'Not Myself Tonight' Edited April 30, 201015 yr by Bionic!
April 30, 201015 yr I still hve faith that the song will go higher on itunes once she starts her tv promo which i believe its next week.
May 6, 201015 yr Not Myself Tonight is up 3 places to #46 on the hot 100 today What a disaster. Radio have abandoned it so it's pretty much done now. So I'm sure RCA are going to waste all the coming performances flogging this dead horse of a single.
May 10, 201015 yr ^ Are you talking about in the States or here in UK ? It's climbing quite quickly up iTunes now and is getting increasing airplay on Radio. The song is a slow burner. It takes time to fully appreciate it, no quick hook like many pop/dance tunes.

May 10, 201015 yr The video to this is pretty dire :( Still not sure if I like the song at all. The video certainly hasn't helped it's cause for me.
May 11, 201015 yr This is decent (ish) but definitely not one of her best.. Keeps Gettin' Better was better than this tbh.
May 12, 201015 yr I've grown a real addiction to this song now! I do agree 'Keeps Gettin' Better' was better though.
May 12, 201015 yr Oh I'm BACK ON BOARD with this in a BIG WAY. I don't CARE cus THIS is my NI-I-IIIIGHT.
May 12, 201015 yr Christina Aguilera’s Label Talk Single Failure Despite an initially warm welcome from radio, Christina Aguilera’s comeback single ‘Not Myself Tonight’ has somewhat fizzled on the US charts, managing only a #23 peak on the Billboard Hot 100. In a rare industry occurrence, Aguilera’s record label, RCA, have spoken out on their disappointment in the single’s performance. Check out what the label source had to say ever-reliable fansite Xtina Web after the jump… New single soon soon? Yes, there will be a new single on the way. But it’s not planned any earlier than the albums release. Is RCA disappointed? Yes, ‘Not Myself Tonight’ is what we believe to be a great song. Unfortunately it was analysed and “ripped” apart by the media – with comparisons and judgements. Why did you guys fail so hard? The pop music world is changing constantly, and we don’t view it as a fail. Sometimes things work, sometimes they don’t – and the time obviously wasn’t right for this release to achieve what it was meant to achieve. Any big news?? Nope. Pristine one more thing. You know if some countries like Japan or iTunes will have more tracks? Thanks. iTunes tracks – you bet Is “WooHoo” the second single? Not at this stage, no. It was an intentional leak, and was not a leak of a 2nd single. Have you heard the album? or seen the booklet? Heard the album… yes. Can talk about it in depth, no. Can you name a couple favorites? I don’t know the names of them as they were played off the album to a group. I’ve known Glam from hearing it before, and there’s one towards the end of the album – I really sway towards it being the one featuring Peaches. Anyway, it’s awesome! When Not Myself Tonight’s release, you mentioned several songs were considered as the 1st single… Care to share which were? Glam, Bionic and another song that I forget were considered. It wasn’t Not Myself Tonight – that was a last hour decision by Christina and her reps. It wasn’t WooHoo either. Woohoo leaked before anyone else leaks it! it was a on a risky bar of leaking ! Not really. If it leaked before the intentional leak, it wouldn’t have mattered. Where they aware that ‘Not Myself Tonight’ was boycotted from radios? Oh, they told us It pretty much goes without saying, but it’s clear that Christina’s ‘Bionic’ project hasn’t gotten off to the best of starts – which is worrying to say the least. While many of her supporters seem to cite the fact that ‘Dirrty’ peaked at #48 on the Hot 100, yet the album it was featured on, ‘Stripped’, went on to become one of the year’s biggest sellers, we are in a very different industry than 8 years ago when that LP dropped. With sales not being what they once were, an ever-increasing number of artists and labels are learning that you have to release that AAA track from the jump – no dilly-dallying or playing around. So what this will mean for Xtina’s ‘Bionic’ album (due June 8th) will be real interesting to see… Source: That Grape Juice

Not Myself Tonight continues to regrow on me now, but if it's seriously the 'AAA track' on Bionic, I probably won't be impressed by the album.
May 12, 201015 yr Not Myself Tonight continues to regrow on me now, but if it's seriously the 'AAA track' on Bionic, I probably won't be impressed by the album. and I got bored of it now :heehee: anyway some questions are really harsh and I kinda doubt that the interview is real.
May 12, 201015 yr Christina comments on her dancing in the video: "There is dancing, and I learned so much also as a dancer doing the 'Burlesque' film, moving my body in ways that were, I feel, never as precise before. Dancing always came sort of secondary to me. Vocals were my first love and where my heart really was. I never was as passionate about dancing, per se, but after 'Burlesque,' I really fell in love and I adapted that in the dancing for 'Not Myself Tonight,' but it was really, really fun to take what I learned from the movie." She also commented, ""A lot of that was based on my visual inspiration," she explained.
May 12, 201015 yr ""A lot of that was based on my visual inspiration," she explained. Visual inspiration being watching Madonna videos? :heehee:
May 12, 201015 yr Visual inspiration being watching Madonna videos? :heehee: lol that's what I was going to say :lol:
May 15, 201015 yr anyway some questions are really harsh and I kinda doubt that the interview is real. I know right, I laughed at the 'fail' question. I don't think it is real. Not Myself Tonight's chart performance wasn't any wonder at all. It's not a big single, it's an OK, mediocre single. It's not the one you would use for a comeback.
