WEIRD

[HollaDolla]

I just know there's gonna be a lot of people upset if that's the cover because it's not a Hot Shot of Christina looking glossed up and pretty but I think that looks great

[Anton98]

She's trying to change it up so it probably might look something like that.

[Ekim23]

The official website announces a big news coming up monday..;

I love the artwork

[bostonboy20]

Claude Kelly(songwriter) tweeted the other day that the album is full of gems and is going to be well worth the wait.

Less than 15 hours left until the big news :P.

[Anton98]

Ok I'm mad, I want to hear a first single, not just the cover art. This is what I saw before the site crashed. What happen to Glam???

[bostonboy20]

yeah bit disappointing but hopefully in 1day 23hrs and 51mins we'll be hearing this song

[Anton98]

I like the single cover, but Madonna's Hard Candy cover pops in my head when I look at it.

[AngelFromAbove]

I liked the glam Christina, but I knew that it was a one album deal. Christina Aguilera is similar to Madonna as she reinvents herself for every album.

[bostonboy20]

supposedly a snippet of "Not Myself Tonight"

I was talking about that single called Glam that everyone was talking about for the past 2 months.

[lostnfound]

I believe that is not the actual snippet.

[spice up your life]

I freaking love the cover she looks hot can't wait to hear the song

[Anton98]

I thought this was hilarious. Kudos to whoever made this.

[Jayden]

Where oh where have I seen this picture before?

Oh ya. Now I remember.

[bostonboy20]

I was talking about that single called Glam that everyone was talking about for the past 2 months.

Glam is going to be from the soundtrack to "Burlesque" her movie with Cher...so I would highly doubt that would be the lead single off her album since that movie doesn't come out till next year sometime


EDIT:
woops I was wrong...the song i'm talking about is called "Spotlight"...which for some reason I cannot find in my Itunes anymore!

[Ekim23]

I like the artwork.

What's important is the song anyway...

[Anton98]

I know they didn't just drop lyrics.

[knotty223]

they started another countdown. Lulz

[knotty223]

in 23 hours we'll get a 10 sec snippet...then another countdown.

[bostonboy20]

I'm sure the actual song won't premiere till Friday....it was supposed to be a week long premiere of stuff...no one ever said the song was going to be the first thing

[Anton98]

I heard that the song will premiere on radio Monday. This is gonna be a long week.

[bostonboy20]

yeah I like the lyrics....it sounds like it'll be a great like party jam...hopefully a summer song....we shall see

[BRIOHAZARD]

I'm so over this count down shit.






I won't come back 'til the song is downloadable on iTunes.

[Ekim23]

LOOOOOL

A countdown for a artwork, then a countdown for lyrics...

now what ... countdown to have the release date ?


It doesnt seem like the girl sold millions of albums and is considered a professional what is her marketing team thinking ???

[bostonboy20]

clip of single on Friday....full song premiere Monday night at 6:00et

impacts radio 4/5
Itunes 4/13
Album out June 8th

Album cover

[Anton98]

I like the cover. Why April 5th that kinda pissed me off.

[bostonboy20]

Sorry to fix my post above....the single won't premiere on Monday night...it's Tuesday night 3/30

[Ekim23]

ahaha Ok i was sceptical, now that I know the cover, Im just excited !!!

I like it, and it seems like the majority likes it too.
I love the idea and the cocnept and now I can see which way she's heading to.

Its very Hitchcock, Dietrich and Metropolis.... I love it...

Next step, the song....

[Anton98]

I still can't believe this cover, I'm glad she thought out of the box with this one.

[bostonboy20]

the clip of "Not Myself Tonight" is up now...head over to christinaaguilera.com to check it out

[Ekim23]

18 seconds is too hard to judge...

I m not convinced tho

[miaedu]

my optimism is slowly disappearing....

[Nocturnal]

I still can't believe this cover, I'm glad she thought out of the box with this one.

I like the cover, but i just wish the cyborg side of her face looked more realistic instead of cartoonish (drawn).

I've heard the 18 secs of the single...i'm soooo disappointed. I thought she was gonna blow LadyG outta the water right out the gate! Ain't gon' sink no battle ships with that one! I smell a second single b4 release and/or album pushback...

[Anton98]

Imma be fair and not say anything until I hear the whole thing. But you think her people would have had a snippet with better sound quality. Did they record that shit off the radio.

[____]

Eh :/ I smell disappointment.

[Anton98]

Two new photos were released on her site.

[lostnfound]

But you think her people would have had a snippet with better sound quality. Did they record that shit off the radio.

Here's a HQ clip from her official youtube site:

Alison Goldfrapp on Working With Christina Aguilera

Alison Goldfrapp — front woman of the eponymous electronic-pop outfit — thought it was time for a change. After a long career of atmospheric albums like Felt Mountain and Seventh Tree, her latest release, Head First, takes a decidedly less abstract shape. Along with her bandmate Will Gregory, Goldfrapp merges tangible pop sensibilities with the band’s ethereal signatures. According to Goldfrapp, this musical about-face wasn’t nearly as challenging as sitting down to write lyrics for Christina Aguilera’s highly anticipated Bionic. We spoke to her about the creative process and working with a pop diva.

It seems like you’ve been experimenting a lot within pop — apart from Head First, you’ve also been working with Christina Aguilera on Bionic. What’s different about that?

Everything, really. Because I’m not singing it, I’m not putting my heart and soul in it. When you’re singing on the record, feelings are a very physical thing, an emotional thing. It’s very personal. It’s your voice, I guess. You put that out of the equation and that makes a huge difference. Everything about it is completely different.

It’s hard to be invested.

It’s a bit like when you’re writing music for movies or something. It’s that you’re kind of giving them a flavor, saying, “Here, what do you think about this?”

How intense was that collaboration?

We wrote her songs last year and went to her studio for four days. Together, we wrote some lyrics, and she sang some of the stuff. We haven’t heard anything since. We know nothing, like whether it got finished by other producers or not. We don’t know anything.

I'm not loving the new single at all. I hope it grows on me. Its a little bland.

Yeahh, i was trying to figure out what it was that i wasn't crazy about, and you sealed it for me. I'm usually nuts about her music but its a just too bland for me. Sometimes people over do it with the bells and whistles on a track but not this one. BUUUT....i think its just the part of the song. Its too short for me to judge.

[Ekim23]

We'll have the song in a few hours now... the song's not leaked for now. Impressive;


Reone and hunt, I m surprised you both liked On Our way & Without you, I dont find em particularly interesting.

Back In the Day, Makes me wanna pray & Mercy on me being my favs on B2B

[Anton98]

I love the single. She's not overpowering the song.
