Hearing that Xtina is working on a new album already, I'm very happy she seems to be in a really good place right now so I'm hoping for a soulful, pop filled album!

I put Bionic on my computer the other night. I still really like this album despite the critical and commercial failure. I was listening to it really loudly in my car this morning.

Good to know! I wasn't keen on Lotus so a Stripped/Back To Basics kind of album is what I'm hoping for.

Bionic and Stripped are my favourites. Bionic just reminds me of summer 2010..wasn't it? Such a great vocal throughout!

"Miss Independant" is a really good song. I'd love to hear Christina's version at some point given that she wrote it.

I can't imagine that she was very pleased when her record label gave the song away to Kelly Clarkson without consulting her first.

Yeah. She wasn't sure what she was doing with the song after she wrote it. It was written during the Stripped sessions.

I guess that her management owned the rights to it so they gave it away to the label that Kelly Clarkson was signed to.

Yeah. She only co-wrote it too. Listened to Lotus today and it doesn't stand up to her previous output at all. Feels rushed and messy.

Listened to Stripped today. The music is still as great as ever but I'm beginning to wonder whether 20 tracks is too many, even if the interludes are less than a minute each.

That album was a gamble for her though it paid off. In 2002 it was unusual for an album to be more than 12 songs long. There was no such thing as a deluxe either. I'm no fan of deluxe editions or re-releases. If they didn't want it on the album in the first place then don't add extra tracks.

It is a long album but I like it.

yep i agree.... its the only album that leaves me a little -meh-meh; imo this is the album that is plagued by too many tracks and some bad production errors and decisions.

track listing should have been:

1. Lotus intro - fab start
2. Best of Me
3. Army of me - great track ... needs to be a little heavier in the baseline and dirtier in the guitar
4. Shut Up
5. Let there be Love
6. Your Body (a merge between the original and the amazing martin garrix remix)
7. Make The World Move
8. Just A fool
9. Sing for Me
10. Cease Fire
11. Blank Page

i find that with this track list the album has bit more of its own identity and flow ...

'angst with a trailblazing war against hate and pro love ...with a blend of the edm and classic christina'

ahh, you beat me to it!

Christina Aguilera and Matthew Rutler welcome daughter Summer Rain

As far as celeb baby names go, Summer Rain is cute.

I know that I'm a little late to the party where this song is concerned, but "Say Something" is beautiful. I only really discovered it the other day. Christina's voice seems a lot softer on that song.

Good to hear it. Let's hope that the new material is better than Lotus. I couldn't warm to that album at all.

I'm curled up in bed watching Burlesque.
