A picture of a blonde woman wearing a white dress in a red colored background.Black-and-white picture of a woman who is sat on the floor and rests on a rock wall. Her facial expression is sad and her hair is straight, long and wavy. She wears a light blouse with a knot in the chest and ripped jeans, and in her neck a collar is visible. In front of her image, the word "Rihanna" is written in peach fragmented capital letters, while "Unfaithful" is written with the same pattern but in yellow.220px-Fergie_-_Big_Girls_Don%27t_Cry.png

Love Rihanna but her ballads are cringe (except for Diamonds, if that is considered a ballad).

The Hurt MV is such a great example of visual storytelling tbh. 
MV actually tells a story and the lyrics of the song matches the story perfectly 

 

*chef's kiss* tbh

Hurt is a masterpiece. Fergie is a close second.

Hurt with ease. Unfaithful is awful, and Personal is ok, but I don't have to hear it ever again for the rest of my llfe.

Hurt is just in an entirely different league. One of Christina's very best. The emotional impact of the song and the music video is unmatched.

All three are surprisingly emotionally complex.

 

"Hurt" is the most ambitious and I feel like regret and grief aren't often tackled in pop music so I'm going with that.

 

"Unfaithful" is remarkable though because it unapologetically casts the singer as the villian and that's quite unusual in this kind of pop ballad, I low key feel this was one of the key moments in establishing Rihanna's ice queen persona in her music, this song was the seed of the start of Rihanna The Artist.

 

"Big Girls Don't Cry" is a perfect pop song too and Fergie's defining moment. I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket always hits.

It's definitely Hurt, ballads are Christina's specialty so she can have this :bird:

Hurt is one of the best ballads ever, so her. Christina at her best is that girl.

Diamonds is one of her worst songs actually. Bland, boring, too much Sia-ish.
