It's hard to fault 2006 X Factor winner Leona Lewis. She has the voice. One of the best female voices to emerge in a long time if I'm honest but she needs to take a more active role in her career. A combination of dull, repetitive, lifeless songs and poor promotion and handling by her record company are going to kill her career. I fell in love with her shy demeanour and powerful voice on TXF where she seemed blissfully insecure and unaware of just how amazing she sounded. Bleeding Love was one of those once in a career type of songs that alongside debut album Spirit made her one of the most successful British female musical exports in a long time, topping charts around the globe – most famously – the American Billboard countdowns. By second album Echo, the music showed progression, however, the strange choices of the record company and their belief that The X Factor will be an auotmatic selling point, so they don't need to bother with much else hindered the record's success and the material whilst listenable was hardly pushing the boundaries of music. Please no more Ryan Tedder numbers next time around which sound like a drunk has been playing with dustbin lids.

Christina came to public attention via the Disney Channel's Mickey Mouse Club [Evil] where she starred alongside a certain Britney Spears & Justin Timberlake. By 1999 she was the latest squeaky clean, bubblegum pop blonde on the block with her transatlantic hit Genie In A Bottle. Fortunately for Aguilera, she rebelled against her image and seriously vamped it up for her second album Stripped!. Lead single Dirrty! put a lot of people off [me included – just EWW], but subsequent singles Beautiful & Fighter helped the album shift more than 8 million copies worldwide. Fighter remains my favourite Christina song due to the pure emotion and power she puts into the track. It's message and it's rocky overtones as well as the gothic themed video are its highlights. Thanks for making me a fighter whenever I listen to yer track Ags. Sadly, I lost interest in her after Stripped. She takes FAR too long to release records and Back To Basics just didn't appeal to me at all. Aguilera is notorious in 2010 for the diabolical flop of her 4th record Bionic which set a record on the UK album charts falling from 1-29 and has barely sold 50,000 units so far. Whilst, I find 75% of her material unlistenable and patchy, Christina imo is a true talent. She has the whole package. Aguilera has sold more than 42 million records worldwide.

 

LOL at Tyler giving Christina his bitch slap when he's always harping on about how he likes her/wants to like her etc.

 

Christina is EVERYTHING.

All results within the top 10 [well the whole countdown] are 100% accurate and have been added by me 3 times to make sure, just to let you all know.

Like both of them.

 

Best Leona song - 'Naked'

Best Christina song - 'Fighter'

GaGa for #1! :cheer: :P

 

Edit: Im quite surprised Kelly Clarkson is above Christina and Leona :o

Edited by Chriss_S

Christina should have been higher she is the whole package vocally, performance, songs and artistry.I hope she can comeback with stronger material but Beautiful and Fighter are classics.

Woo, finished work just in time! :D

Looks like a non-british top 8 then. I agree that Christina's best track is Fighter. Its amazing to think that she can be so hit and miss.

TBH. I thought she'd win but a combination of bitchslaps galore and lack of votes towards the end pushed her down. Britney has the joint 2nd highest amount of #1 placings but is also joint 1st with the most bitch slaps. However, even with those 21 points added she'd still be in the same position. Also a graduate of the Mickey Mouse Club, Spears cemented herself as a pop culture icon with her debut single Baby One More Time, which sold more than 9 million copies worldwide making it one of the most successful singles ever released. The video showed the 16 year old singer in a skimpy school uniform. Britney returned teen pop to the top of the charts and established herself as a pop icon with her first two albums Baby One More Time & Ooops! I Did It Again. She's changed her image and tried her hand at different genres throughout her first decade in the spotlight which has seen her shift more than 100 million records. Sadly, increased interest in her private life and a very public breakdown in the mid 2000s has turned Britney into the paparazi's favourite target. I personally feel her material since 2007 has had some highlights but is exceptionally poor and not a patch on the feel good, cheesy yet defining pop hits she created at the start of her career. I think she needs a long time out and a look at her career and what has gone wrong personally and professionally and hopefully her next album has given her the chance to do so.

Hits include: Baby One More Time, Ooops! I Did It Again, Stronger, I'm A Slave 4 U, Toxic, Everytime, Womanizer & Piece Of Me.

 

I don't like Britney as much as I used to tbh.

 

Best song - Born To Make You Happy

glad i gave xtina the bitchslap or she would be above leona, now they're tight :lol:

 

britney and leona should be higher :drama:

Edited by Savio

Britney :wub:

 

Best Songs - Crazy, Stronger, Gimme More and Piece Of Me.

 

She should be so much higher though. <_<

Edited by Chriss_S

she would have been higher if it wasn't for jeleuos people and finding her a threat to their favourites. Lady GaGa must beat those R&B 'artists'

Spawning the start of a generation of Neighbours stars turn singers, Kylie Minogue took the UK by storm in 1988 with the catchy pop numbers I Should Be So Lucky & Locomotion. Kylie was reportedly the first female artist to sell over 2 million copies of their debut album. Her popularity waned during the mid 90s as she took her music in a more indie direction, but reinvented herself at the start of 2000 cementing herself as a gay icon and pop culture phenomenon with Spinning Around which featured those infamous gold hotpants. 2001's Fever and overrated Can't Get You Out Of My Head provided the Australian songstress with her most successful era yet, 15 years into her career. A rare and extraordinary feat. Kylie is still going strong in 2010 with the release of her 11th studio album 'Aphrodite' allowing her to join an elite band of artists that have topped the UK album charts for 4 consecutive decades. I like a lot of Kylie's material and I feel like my life is linked closely to her career as her debut UK single made it to #1 the day I crawled out of my mother's womb. Explains a lot huh? :kink: Kylie may not be up the global and music altering status of Madonna but she is definitely the second strongest and most influential pop singer in my opinion. Other non-mentioned hits include Especially For You, Better The Devil You Know, Shocked, Did It Again, Confide In Me, On A Night Like This, Love At First Sight, I Believe In You, In My Arms & All The Lovers.

I'm surprised that Alicia, P!nk and Kelly did so well. Only thing I can think of is that they don't offend people but also are consistantly appreciated even if not liked.

Kylie is amazing :wub: Probably my fave female artist ever.

 

Best song - Love At First Sight
