Beautiful Garbage Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 2 hours ago, La Reina said: As it should. Burlesque type music is what most people want from Xtina, not Bionic/Lotus type music. I appreciate Bionic for what it is and I'm glad it has become a cult classic album amongst pop listeners but the soul and R&B from Stripped and Back to Basics is her lane. Own it, Xtina. Bionic is a great camp pop album for the gays, but it was too edgy for the GP. She alienated her fanbase in the process too, which would've been fine if the album (or even Lotus) had succeeded to replace those old fans. I think one of the most interesting things about being a fan/following Xtina's career is that we never know what's coming next. Like, the previous record has never been an indicator of what her next album is going to sound like. If anything they're always completely different from each other. Though I agree that she does seem to be at her very best when she's making some R&B or soulful music. She is just (vocally) too good for pop music. I still want my rock influenced album though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honesty thought she was going to go in the country pop route during the time Nashville was on with the songs released. That would’ve been interesting! I can’t see her doing a rock infusion album for some reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Matt is a rocker and remember when she was doing her Billionaire Tour and covered Led Zeppelin with Whole Lotta Love? Bet my 2 cents that was Matt’s influence because X doesn’t seem to be the kind of girl who listens to Led Zeppelin (we know she grew up with soul instead). I legitimately thought she would come back with a rock album. Well, at least I got Sick of Sittin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's how you know that the overall mental development of the average user on here is very stunted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The song is cute but I expected way more especially considering it was a Linda Perry collab. Now the visuals, miss ma'am... this was quite possibly my favorite red carpet lewk she's served. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This Era is the Era I hold closest to my heart. She literally had everything any girl her age could wish for: she had commercial success, being praised to the high heavens by critics and fellow musicians as well. She also got the validation from her childhood idols as well. And as shallow as it may sound, she looked perfect. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beautiful Garbage Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 Monday Morning screams underground electro pop to me. Like M.I.A or La Roux, which were both at their peak around the same time Bionic was released. One thing I really appreciate about Bionic was the versatility in her voice. You know Christina Aguilera played around with synthesizers and auto tune not because she needs them (come on she’s probably the last person in the world to need any of this gibberish) but because she was committed to the aesthetics that music genre demanded. I said ARTISTE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
