Coming in at #3 on the album rate is Christina's 4th studio album "Bionic" and again showed a change in her image and sound, after going Pop on first album, Urban on second and Jazz on third and on this Electropop. Released in June 2010 and recieved harsh reviews, where many accused her of ripping of Lady Gaga on style and sound and despite big names working on the album such as Sia, Linda Perry and Ladytron, the album didn't find impressive sales and after the underwelming responce to the lead single "Not Myself Tonight", it did manage a high peak of #3 in the USA but dropped down soon after and the same went for the UK despite topping the charts it had the biggest second week drop in history down to #29 and out 2 weeks later. Also despite high peaks around the world, it struggled to maintain high sales and originally the album was to be much shorter and different, but when the record company started getting involved it became something completely different. Other singles released also failed to find success Woohoo with Nicki Minaj was only released in the USA and Canada but failed to peak top 40 and You Lost Me was released as the 2nd worldwide single but failed to find success and I Hate Boys was only released in Australia. My opinion the album was actually pretty good, but not great unfortunately, but there were some fantastic tracks such as Elastic Love, Glam, Sex For Breakfast and Birds Of Prey.
Unlike someone ELSE in another duet, SCREECH! :puke2:

 

And the reason why Woohoo flopped is because it was shit, not because there was no vid.

 

Especially for you.. :P

At #11 and just missing the top 10 is "Lady Marmalade" which was featured as part of a medley for the movie "Moulin Rouge" and for the soundtrack Christina Aguilera, Mya, Pink and Lil' Kim recorded a cover version, originally sung by Labelle in 1974 and this version was produced by Missy Elliot and released as a single in March 2001. It was also the third song ever to top the US charts without a commerical release and it was also Christina's 4th US #1 and the first for everyone else. In the UK it also topped the charts becoming her 2nd UK #1 and again first time for everyone else. Worldwide the song topped the charts in Australia, Brazil, Germany, Greece, Ireland, New Zealand, Norway, Romania, Spain, Sweden and Swiss.

10. You Lost Me

Avg: 8.083

 

Highest Rates: 10 (Davidson, Insomnio, Hayzayy, Michael, Jonjo, Jark, Lukuzz)

Lowest Rates: 3 (darkstar79)

 

At #10 is "You Lost Me" released in June 2010 as the third and final single from her 4th album "Bionic" and despite being hailed as a standout track and hopes that it would put her back on track, it became a flop by peaking at #120 on the US Billboard Charts and faring even worse on the UK charts at #153. Elsewhere it did fare better in Isreal and Belgium with top 10 and top 20 positions and also made low peaks in Slovakia and Netherlands.

At #9 is "Ain't No Other Man" released in June 2006 as the lead single from her 3rd album "Back To Basics" and showcased a new style and sound, going for a more Jazz, blues and funk sound and lyrically it's about her then marriage to Jordan Bratman in 2005. Her new sound went down a storm with fans and critics and the song hit top 10 in the USA her first time as a solo artist since 2003, and hit #2 in the UK becoming her 13th top 10 hit and final to date as a solo artist.

08. Beautiful

At #8 is "Beautiful" the first of the Stripped era singles to drop out and which also means that all five singles from that album are in this top 10 which is pretty awesome. Released in November 2002 as the 2nd single, and upon release it recieved acclaim and won a Grammy award for Best Female Vocal Performance and widely embraced by the LGBT community for it's message of self empowerment. Originally the song's writer Linda Perry wrote it for Pink's second album, but when Christina sung it at her house Linda gave it to her and of course the song became one of her biggest and most successful singles. In the USA it was released quite quickly due to the poor charting of "Dirrty" and therefore turned things around by reaching #2. In the UK it became her 4th and final to date #1 hit. Worldwide it also topped the charts in Australia, Belgium, Canada, Ireland and New Zealand, as well as top 5 in Sweden, Netherlands, Austria and Norway and then top 10 peaks in Hungary, Swiss, Italy, Danish and Germany. Originally this was a lot higher up the charts but due to some of the lower last minute rates, it's average was brought down despite scoring multiple 11's and 10's.

Stripped vs Back To Basics

"You Lost Me" is a great ballad and her performance is simply stunning!!! I can't believe that this song flopped so hard. Where is the emotion, people??
Regina is a main lover of two my favourite Xtina songs. :o

 

SOULMATES <3 let's exchange 11's in the rate.

SOULMATES <3 let's exchange 11's in the rate.

"Keeps Gettin’ Better" and "Not Myself Tonight" :wub:

 

and it seems that you don't like 'Stripped" album :cheer:

Can't Hold Us Down :wub: what a tune.

 

 

Fighter and Hurt for top 2, by far her two best.

"Keeps Gettin’ Better" and "Not Myself Tonight" :wub:

 

and it seems that you don't like 'Stripped" album :cheer:

 

Both underrated gems.

 

Stripped is largely filler :(
