Christina Aguilera: Official Topic

[Bell]

I finally listened to the new album today and I liked it.

[pat200]

I find it ok. The dance/rnb stuff is not my style really but her ballads are good. not great, just good.

[merlito]

Viva Celine and Christina!!!!

[fan2celinedion]

After a lot of speculation, the next single has been confirmed to be "You lost me".

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/3/34/You_Lost_Me.jpg

The song has been slightly remixed to be a little more radio friendly!

 

You lost me (Radio remix)

[Lymon]

I HATE the radio remix. They just took some R&B-lite backdrop and some futuristic sounds, and added it to the song. It completely takes away from the beauty of the original.

 

Also, Christina has hired Anthony Mandler to direct the You Lost Me video!

 

Christina Aguilera has hired one of music’s most popular directors for her ‘You Lost Me’ music video. Anthony Mandler has confirmed via his twitter that he will be directing the clip this week. “I love this song I’m working with this week” he writes before making the confirmation. “You Lost Me”. Source.

 

Mandler certainly does not come cheap, since he is now a big name in Pop music’s Elite. Last year, he directed avande-garde music clips for Rihanna, Amerie and Jay-Z. Plus, Beyonce is also one of his biggest clients. It’s good that after ‘Bionic’ was certified moulded cheese, she is still pressing ahead with making things work.

 

Releasing ‘You Lost Me’ and picking Mandler for its clip is definetely a positive step in the right direction. If you’re still not familiar with Mandler’s work, I’ve posted all of his back catalogue after the jump.

[Davey84]

yeah I am not so fond of it either... I hope they'll play the album version instead!

[Guybrush Threepwood]

totally airbrushed...

[Lymon]

totally airbrushed...

 

What's airbrushed?

[fan2celinedion]

totally airbrushed...

 

What's airbrushed?

lol yeah what's airbrushed?

 

Anyway, I'm totally in love with Prima Donna

[mcmusic_fan]

does anybody know why she isnt selling well, in billboard is over top 25 in less than 5 weeks, is this cd not good enough???

[celinefanonline]

well do u have the album??? if you have then i think u would know why

 

for me it's kind of disppointing though, they make such big come back thing for her but i have to say i don't like the album that much

i know theres some good songs but others no don't like them...

like Woohoo she sound like Avril's girlfriend and for bobblehead it's really annoying.... sex for breakfast is not good at all too so yeah.. oh well

hopefully next time she'll do something better or at least at the same level as back to basics

 

oh btw how come she doesn't keep her hair like what she did for Haiti thing where she sang lift me up, she looks younger there

[rael1983]

I listened to the album, got only the songs I liked and re-ordered the tracklist. For me "Bionic" now has this tracklisting:

 

01 Not Myself Tonight

02 Monday Morning

03 Morning Dessert (Intro)

04 Sex for Breakfast

05 I Am

06 Stronger Than Ever

07 Birds of Prey

08 Lift Me Up

09 All I Need

10 I Hate Boys

11 You Lost Me

12 Little Dreamer

13 I Am (Stripped)

 

That would've been a great album IMO.

She looks great!

[Black Kitten]

bought the deluxe edition of Bionic last Monday, and have just listened to it earlier today.

i already have downloaded the 5 deluxe track before i got the physical copy, but i have to say that the 5 (okay, 4 ) bonus tracks are actually better than some of the tracks on the standard version. which is a shame really.

 

can't get enough of Monday Morning (which has a 70's/80's vibe to it), Bobblehead (this one's very Gwen Stefani, but it's a fun track!), Birds of Prey (great great house track!), and the lovely Stronger than Ever. I am (Stripped) is just, well the stripped version of the song found on the standard version of the album. but i prefer this one over the original version.

 

Stripped remains my favorite Xtina album, but Bionic is still way better than Back to Basics (ugh). some fillers here and there, but all in all, it's a solid record. the booklet is AMAZING. (oh and the holographic cover is so cool!)

She looks great!

 

love the pics

and finally she's back to her old looks!!! great!

[GoldenLeaf]

I really don't like her new album so I'm not gonna buy it. I still consider her Back To Basics album as the best album of her career.

You lost me (Hex hector & Mac Quayle Radio mix)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j_ySmGjuQXc

I love the new vocals & ad-libs

[celinemagicsingle]

I think She has lost a little bit of voice, I don't know if is my impression or she really lost voice, cos sometimes is very hard to her to get the high notes of her old songs

[Prince Whiskers]

BioFLOP!

 

That said, Lift Me Up and You Lost Me are real stunners. Celion better have colossal ballads like those 2 on her so-called nightgown album.

The official You Lost Me video. I love it! It's so simple, yet very effective.

[CELINE MARIE]

I love this new song wonderful voice, she should only sing ballads
