This post is brought to you by Britney Spears [insert adjective of your choice here] performance @ VMA 2007. There is a connection but it's such a long story
( Read more... )
Well, I never teamed up but I always thought Christina was waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more talented as for her singing. Performing? I don't know, I think both of them stick to cliches so much and actually do nothing great. Britney can dance better (or used to), though but Madonna FTW. Proof? Bitch is almost 50 and still puts a fucking good performance.
Her unfortunate lyrics and production really ticks me the wrong way because it's such a blunt contrast to her stunning voice, I'm not kidding. Take 'Reflection', for example: I think it's a very good pop song, you know I love it and all, but it bothers me that she has to do all those "oOoOooOOh"s which is the curse of R'n'B (it's so overdone!) and the whole mixing of the song could be better (not her fault), you know? Well, it's a Disney trakc and they have their standard models so I shouldn't ask much but, still, it is a beautiful song which brings me to tears. Mainly because I cannot ignore such a sad self-acceptance lyric sang by such a voice, really. The brazilian version and that other version by another women have nothing to offer me but annoyance.
You see, when I know someone has talent, I get very anal with what they do. Maybe that's my problem with Christina? I know she can SO MUCH MORE than what she's belittling herself to. She can give us more and better, dammit!
I should be glad that someone with her talent for singing has such a fame and acceptance, really. It seems nowadays that only the truly waste-of-space in the media gets all the attention and *gasp* praise. Her tracks may be utter crap as far as lyric content is concerned but at least it is sang by a someone who knows how to sing, in the very least. That Rihanna girl, for example, can't sing shit. Her songs may be catchy as all hell but DAYUM SHE CAN'T SING.
I like Fighter, Reflection, Beautiful, Hurt, Save Me From Myself... but I seldomly listen to them. I never pick one of her CDs ang go "yeah, now I'm gonna listen to her". That's sad because she has the potential to make me crave listening to her more.
It was funny when I discovered that song on YouTube and there was this comment saying that was the worst NIN cover ever: dude even bothered to hear the fucking song a little. FAIL XDD
