Today is Tuesday, which means “TUNE IN TUESDAY” (as we call it at work) which also means Christina Aguilera’s new album is out :) It released on itunes at midnight but apparently leaked the week before. I’ve been a long running fan of Christina since her start as a genie in a bottle (not going to lie, I listened to the CD so much it has scratches all over it. Who am I kidding, I still listen to it! It’s on my itunes currently) and the way she reinvents herself with each album is admirable. “Bionic” is no different. The album contains usual ballads that you can’t help but sway to and belt out (Such as “Little Dreamer”, “You Lost Me”, and “Lift Me Up”) and sometimes tear up to. But it also has a nice mix of dancey songs that make you shake your bum and try to sing along.

Some of my favorite songs are “Bobblehead” (on the deluxe edition), “I Hate Boys”, and “Woohoo” as well as a few others (+ the slower songs mentioned). Christina Aguilera definitely has a more electronic-dancey sound to this album than her last. I’d say Bionic is will be on repeat on itunes as well as in my car for weeks to come :) Some of the songs haven’t quite grown on me yet, but as a whole I give the album a 4/5. Christina Aguilera’s singing talent is amazing as usual, the lyrics are catchy, and there’s a nice mix of dancey songs to rock out to as well as songs to make to cry and hold a lighter up and sway. There are a few songs that will probably not grow on me at all (such as “Sex For Breakfast”, it’s catchy but meh). I wouldn’t say this is her best album yet (my favorite is Back to Basics) but I feel it can stand proudly in the Hall of Fame of that is Aguilera :) And I can’t wait to see what she has up her sleeves (or in her gears?) next! If you’ve gotten your hands on a copy I’d love to read/hear other people’s opinions.

What was the last album or song you purchased? Hate it of love it?

  2. I was born on the same date as Christina Aguilera in 1980 and have followed her very closely. She is a brilliant singer.

  3. Christina Aguilera gave me so much power with ‘fighter’ and ‘can’t hold us down’. She definitely figths for women and I love her for doing that. No one could ever beat her voice she’s the best!!!!!!!!
