Christina Aguilera's 3rd Single Is.......

[sunoftheskye]

The reviews were correct about the album being a masterpiece if she had stuck to the one disc. By disk 2 it kind of loses control for me and each song doesn't really merge together like they did on disc 1. Hurt was probably released at the wrong time of year in my opinion in the UK, as the winter was approaching, hurt does nothing to lift the spirits. She would have been better releasing something more upbeat for her second single, like candyman or slow down baby as the party season approached. It also seems like she did all of her promotional stuff for the album and first single and then went all quiet on us.

Dumb RCA. They figured that their "formula" of slow ballad during the winter season would work like it did with Beautiful, AND they wanted to get Hurt out quick so she could get Grammy nods for it. Funny, since...the song was only a moderate success, and it didn't get any Grammy nods.

They should've figured out this doesn't work back when they tried to do it with The Voice Within.

Christina wanted Candyman as the second single. They should've listened.

Definately. I could see people playing it at their Christmas parties now.

I can't wait for the video. She takes forever to make them.

Why did I have a feeling this would be her 3rd single.

I never paid a bit of attention to Christina until I saw the beautiful video, this was just after I came out and I really liked the video, I bought the back to basics CD and really like it. The only other song I liked was the Lady Marmalade cover.

I guess my taste in music should have been a big hint. Friends always made fun of my Abba, Air Supply, Madonna records.

Yes, very smart choice.

You should have slapped your friends for laughing at your taste in music! I luuuuuv ABBA and Air Supply to bits. My older friends introduced me to them and I'm hooked !

Candyman is one of the best songs on the cd.

Candyman is the ONLY good song on the CD, so I'm glad she chose it as a single. I just couldn't get into this record. 'Stripped' was such a freakin masterpiece that she had to go ruin it with this crap. But, I'll just wait for another album. Ain't gonna like 'em all.

Well I guess it's a good thing the 3 million people that have bought her CD, and the overwhelming majority of critics don't share the same opinions as you.
