Hector Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 Quote Christina Aguilera's Official Top 20 biggest songsBy Justin Myers She's the fighter who loved to get dirrty and owed her early success to a magical genie – kind of. She's been away a while, but the signs are good for a Christina Aguilera comeback in 2017. She's confirmed a new album is coming.While we wait, we look at the songs that got her here – an impressive lineup of 23 Top 40 hits, of which 17 went Top 10 and four made it all the way to Number 1. Before we reveal the full Top 20, some highlights:Genie in a BottleEvery pop superstar's career has to start somewhere and Christina's kickoff was better than most. A genuine phenomenon when released in 1999, demand was so high that the US import charted the week before its official UK release. Shifting 172,000 copies in that first seven days on sale, Genie in a Bottle spent two weeks at Number 1. It lands as her second biggest song with 712,300 copies sold, and 5.9 million streams.Lady MarmaladeSome of Christina's most enduring hits have been her team-ups with other huge artists – she is not afraid of a collaboration! 2001's Lady Marmalade was a real turning point for Christina – while she'd been spotted out and about sporting a more outré look, this was the first time we'd seen Christina fully expressing herself and letting out her wild side. With Lil Kim, Pink and Mya on board, this was a guaranteed hit – another Number 1. On her rundown, it clocks in as her fourth biggest song overall, combining sales of 676,000 and 9.3 million.DirrtySo if Lady Marmalade was the starter, here was the main. Christina was pulling no punches – indeed, the video was set at a very rough boxing match – on this fantastically gritty Number 1 from 2002. The lead from her huge-selling sophomore album Stripped, Dirrty spent two weeks rubbing itself up against the Number 1 spot, and has scored 393,000 sales and 6.7 million streams to land in Christina's all-time Top 5.BeautifulChristina's last Number 1 (so far), this classic "look hun, you're actually a really great person so who cares what people think" ballad knocked Tatu's All The Things She Said off the top in 2003. It's sold 377,400 copies and racked up 6.6 million plays since we started counting in 2014.Moves Like JaggerNow, a big one. Christina hadn't been in the Top 10 for a while when this insanely catchy track from a revitalised Maroon 5 came along in 2011. Christina's scene-stealing cameo helped Moves Like Jagger to million-selling status – but it couldn't lift it to Number 1. Yep, Moves Like Jagger spent an agonising SEVEN weeks at 2, beaten to the top by six different songs, including Example, Rihanna FT Calvin Harris, Pixie Lott and One Direction.In fact, Moves Like Jagger is the second bestselling single in the history of the Official Singles Chart not to get to Number 1, beaten (again) by Wham’s Last Christmas. It was the second biggest selling single of 2011, behind Adele's Someone Like You, and is Christina's biggest song in the UK – 1.53 million sales and 16.8 million streams. However… while it is her top seller, it isn't her most streamed track.Say SomethingAnother memorable feature from Christina, this song became a hit after our leading lady spotted it on So You Think You Can Dance – we can just imagine Christina settling down to watch this at home, shouting out NO whenever someone attempted the moves from Dirrty – and was anxious to collaborate with A Great Big World on a new version. The Christina-enhanced song reached Number 4 in 2014 and sold 432,000 copies. It's Christina's most streamed track in the UK, notching up 31 million plays, helping it to finish third in her all-time Top 20. It's also her most recent Top 40 hit – but we reckon that will change pretty soon…The Official Top 20 biggest Christina Aguilera songs:SONG BY PEAK YEAR1 MOVES LIKE JAGGER MAROON 5 FEAT CHRISTINA AGUILERA 2 20112 GENIE IN A BOTTLE CHRISTINA AGUILERA 1 19993 LADY MARMALADE CHRISTINA AGUILERA/LIL' KIM/MYA/PINK 1 20014 SAY SOMETHING A GREAT BIG WORLD/CHRISTINA AGUILERA 4 20145 DIRRTY CHRISTINA AGUILERA FEAT REDMAN 1 20026 BEAUTIFUL CHRISTINA AGUILERA 1 20037 FEEL THIS MOMENT PITBULL FEAT CHRISTINA AGUILERA 5 20138 CANDYMAN CHRISTINA AGUILERA 17 20079 AIN'T NO OTHER MAN CHRISTINA AGUILERA 2 200610 HURT CHRISTINA AGUILERA 11 200611 FIGHTER CHRISTINA AGUILERA 3 200312 WHAT A GIRL WANTS CHRISTINA AGUILERA 3 200013 TELL ME P DIDDY FEAT CHRISTINA AGUILERA 8 200614 NOBODY WANTS TO BE LONELY RICKY MARTIN WITH C AGUILERA 4 200115 CAR WASH CHRISTINA AGUILERA FEAT MISSY ELLIOTT 4 200416 TILT YA HEAD BACK NELLY & CHRISTINA AGUILERA 5 200417 COME ON OVER BABY (ALL I WANT IS YOU) CHRISTINA AGUILERA 8 200018 CAN'T HOLD US DOWN CHRISTINA AGUILERA FEAT LIL' KIM 6 200319 THE VOICE WITHIN CHRISTINA AGUILERA 9 200320 KEEPS GETTIN' BETTER CHRISTINA AGUILERA 14 2008 http://www.officialcharts.com/chart-news/christina-aguileras-official-top-20-biggest-songs__18768/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
