Christina Aguilera filmed her episode of ‘VH1 Storytellers’ last evening. At the event, the singer performed a collection of material including a few new tracks from her ‘Bionic’ album (which will be released on June 8th) such as the ballad ‘You Lost Me’ and the up-tempo title track, ‘Bionic’. Until the episode airs, you can check out the songs below:
While the quality of the ‘Bionic’ is too poor to judge, ‘You Lost Me’ is definitely indicative of something rather interesting. The track, on which Aguilera draws on the singing techniques of her biggest influences – Etta James and Mariah Carey – shows how much Aguilera’s voice has changed. Although a beautiful Pop song, her voice sounds rough and almost tattered. Could it be that after years of screaming both on stage and in the studio that her vocal chords have been damaged in some way? Listen to ‘You Lost Me’ yourself and it’s doubtful that you’ll even recognise that it’s Aguilera singing until the start of the chorus.
Love it! Can’t wait for You Lost Me 😀
Thank you trent!
I swear something happened to her voice… all that screaming – night after night – it gonna take its toll. . .
Could be why they keep saying she’s toned it down vocally this album….
That said, I do like her voice much more when she keeps it simple.
CHRISTINA FLOPs HARDERrrrrrrrrrr !!!!

🙁
Christina did say that in her album, she will be using her voice in ways she never had. I think that this is one of her collaborations with Sia Furler and if you’re gonna listen to her (listen: You Have Been Loved), you’ll know that it’s her bluesy tone that Christina is channeling. I’m loving this track.
Welcome Back Christina!
Christina is back! She just took a crap on the competition.
This is some next level music! Much better than anything Britney has ever performed. Oh wait, she hasn’t done anything live in years except for a yelling out random comments at her concerts.
These two women should get together and do something. Both are so unique. Britney who?
Christina said she would be doing different vocal styles. Her voice is fine.
Sounds good to me…. I don’t think her voice has changed at all, maybe a bit with age I mean she is nearly 30 now. She can still sing better than most singers out now!!! I am really looking forward to the new album
OMG !!! I love both songs! You Lost Me is amazing, sucha beautiful song and Bionic damn sounds HOT!!!
Her voice have changed but I like it this way even better , its darker I love it.
Welcome back Christina! This album is going to be amazing!!!
Trent you are just hating. She sounds amazing, she already said that she is going to use different singing techniques and that she is going to tone it down a bit… You dont like it when she scream, you dont like it when is toning it down…
You are just jealous cauz your idol Mariah cannot sing anymore…
When is this album coming out!?
Such a f***** ugly ass hater. She sounds AMAZING. Then again,you stan for Kelly Off-key Rowland. You dont know S***.
Yeah the recording is rough, Christina’s voice is not lol, she sounds different because that is her point. She is a vocalist, and over the span of her career she has been using her voice in different ways, on the next album, her voice will sound different again. Christina is not like all the other popstars, she is one of a kind lol.
TRENT WHAT R U TALKING ABOUT?!?!? Your shading attempts boarder on such desparitiy that you even miss typed the song “you got me”?? FAIL! Christina’s voice sounds great, she’s just singing a more folky song on You Lost Me, but even at the end it’s classic Christina. Giving Birth and older will make your voice darker, but the power is still there.. Ugh why are you even allowed to post Chrisitna news.. your on it so quick, but just end up throwing shade..
You should win a million dollars!
Seriously, WTF is up with everyone jumping on the Perez bandwagon? It’s like nobody has a mind of their own anymore.
YES CHRISTINA!!! THIS IS WHY I LOVE HER!
NOBODY IS MAKING BALLADS ANYMORE TOO BAD. YOU LOST ME IS AMAZING! I CANNOT WAIT FOR THIS ALBUM!!!
WOW… This is a very nice song. Not really into the chorus just yet but the parts in between. Never mind, I just heard the belting. NICE!!!
Her voice is fine, it’s the quality. She said she would be toning down the vocals.
She sounds great! Can’t wait for the album. Christina never disappoints…
Amazing I love you Christina!!!!!!!!
STFU Trent. This song “You Lost in Me” is sampling but doesnt come to mind right away… definitely from 60’s early 70’s vibe. Oh, and Xtina has always said her biggest influence is Whitney. Of course posted by Trent, the d***** has to put a lamb slant on everything (even though Mooriah Mimoo no longer has a label). Totally LMAO!!
I dont like Christina and I know why she sounds like this, she said she was using her voice to do something different and I loved these performances, I bet you are picked on and bullied on school like Perez, that’s why you spit hate towards everyone, so sad
I swear, Christina Aguilera must have refused to be interviewed by TGJ, because you all have been going in – unfairly though…
I would have to say that it is a bit premature to make the assumption that Christina has lost her voice, or that her voice has changed. The only way this can be determined is if and when she sings one of her older songs, until that time, chalk it up to her trying something new vocally. Christina Aguilera is such a beast vocally, and it will be pretty difficult, in my opinion, to fathom her getting stronger (i.e. power, range, belting, etc.). On the other hand, technically she can improve, and I think that she’s really testing the depth and range of her voice.
All in all, I loved “You Lost Me” it kinda reminded me of “Save Me From Myself”, which I still listen to often. The title track “Bionic” sounds fun, but I will have to save my opinion until a HQ version is released.
i dont like how she keeps on shouting lmao
@Trent- why do you always have something negative to say about Christina? She’s been around over 10 years now and like she and Linda did say she toned down her voice for this album so STFU!
CHRISTINA AGUILERA IS NOT A FLOP ESPECIALLY WHEN OFFERED TO PERFORM ON AMERICAN IDOL FINALE , OPRAH, LETTERMAN, GOOD DAY, REGIS AND KELLY AND WAY MORE IF SHE WAS A FLOP SHE WOULD BE LIKE CIARA NOT PERFORMING EVER
how are you going to judge her vocals based on low-quality clips? cmon now.
HER VOCAL IS STILL AWESOME N IS NOT ROUGH AND TATTERED, ITS JUST BCOZ THE QUALITY OF THE RECORDER , ….I MEAN EVEN WITH BAD QUALITY, SHE IS STILL AWESOME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SUPERB, ! IT IS BEYOND GOOD !
wow that grape juice why have u been haitting on christina her voice sounds fine the quality suck hello!
That was horrible and boring. I was excited but from hearing this, i will not be wasting my money on this album.
@umokay you idiot are you judging by the clip that its horrible come on hello someone recorded it with their phone for God sakes s*** she sounds awesome still with the phone recording anyways I swear these tricking idiots will never stop complaining about something all I can say is you lost me is fucken great song this is stripped part 2 or like all he albums put into one.
Can someone tell meWhen an artist is on several record labels for example Lady Gaga is on Interscope, Kon Live, Steamline and Cherrytree, does it mean that when an album is sold the money goes to the different labels and the artist (Lady Gaga) or artists (in case of a group) gets less money than for an artist for example Ryan Starr who is just signed to one label (Atlantic Records)?
She is becoming like that FAT, FLOP MARIAH CAREY!
Princess of Trying Hard To Impress Fans 🙁 🙁 🙁
Her voice sounds AMAZING. Can’t wait to hear the album – even low quality, those songs sound great!
Lord she sounds a mess… I’m officially no long interested in her project! *walks off*
“You Lost Me” is my favorite out of the two. Very good production and build up. “Bionic” is a bit Timbaland-esque in its production IMO. Sounds cool. I’m interested in seeing what she’ll be releasing, but probably not buying the album this time around.
She beasted “You Love Me”, the VOICE is here! & I love “Bionic.” Trent your life is a fail, while you’re shading Christina, Shade your flop Mariah & try to save her ever failing career :). At least Christina is on the charts somewhere, I haven’t seen Mariah on the charts, since her buzz “Obsessed” =O Oh…?
Boring R&B/dance and the other is her trying to be different when really she just needs to sing her b*** off. She doesn’t have the quirky, Judy Garland esque voice that Gaga does. She is trying to be clever at the mike the way Gaga was with Poker Face. FAIL. Just sing girl, you aren’t Timbaland and you aren’t Mariah/Alicia Keys/Gaga. What is the matter with her…. It isn’t even fun making fun of her anymore. It is just getting sad. I hope these sound better on the album. I have been talking a lot of trash, but I was secretly hoping she would ballad something out of the park like the old days. Guess not…. Gaga and all the pop stars out there are putting too much pressure on. Ya, just pathetic now. I feel bad even calling her Hagtina anymore. Sad.
Trent you have NO EAR if you say that this voice is bad and rough.
OMG this song and performance was HUUUUUGE!!!
AWESOME CHRISTINA!!!!!
Amazing…Always Xtina!!!
OMG mariah this is for you b**** sit the f*** down this is how you make music that has meaning. Your just pissed she just b**** slapped lady GaGa Keisha Rihanna with these 2 songs. This girl has them all at the palm of her hand. They should be scared cause Christina ain’t going nowhere at all this what true sing and making music is all about. Lady GaGa take some moths fucken notes.
Christina:
BI…ONIC
SO DAMN BIONIC
GONNA GIT YOU WITH MY ELECTRONIC
SUPERSONIC ROCKET HEY!*****************************
Gaga:
Half psychotic, sick, hypnotic
Got my blueprint, its symphonic
Half psychotic, sick, hypnotic
Got my blueprint electronic************************
I would say Christina is using someone’s blueprint, except *shudders* Supersoni rocket hey? Really? That is worse that her Don’t Page me lyrics……Oh my god she is killing me. I don’t know whether to laugh or cry….Play Bionic at 37 on and you will hear it. Awful…
Oh and Stephen, go back to grammer school because nothing you said makes any sense you un-educated lump. Maybe if I talk at your reading level…see below.
Stephen: Go you shut so mean must represent and food bears, love you jerk, go home christina palm of hand wooot hells ya, pimp word. Jerk!!

why do you guys use that picture of her
Bionic sounds like a hot track but is too hard to make out because of the sound of quality.
To the people who brought up Britney, Blackout is an epic album and received a ton of critical acclaim. We’ll see if Christina will top that. Plus, Gimme More was a top 10 hit, whereas NMT only managed to hit #23.
And the NMT music vid barely passed 1 million views on YouTube and it has been out for 5 days. Lmao. Nobody cares except her stans.
What did you except? her screaming over and over again? Love the track. Christina’s music have grown. She’s on the next level. Can’t wait for the new album.
OMG You lost me sounds Kinda like beyonce dissapear / And ave maria
boring

*laughs and laughs and laughs and laughs and laughs*
TRENT..
PPL U HAVEN’T REALIZED YET THAT TRENT & SAM ARE HATERS.LOL!
THEY SAY STUFF JUST TO GET PPL TO COMMENT ON THIS BLOG.
OH GROW UP SARAH.. BRITNEY’S CAREER IS HANGING BY A THREAD.
She was using her head voice trent, your head voice makes you sound different, non singers wouldnt know that
I couldn’t tell you anything about her voice based on these clips. The audio was horrible. You Lost Me sounds like a good song though. SIa Furler co-wrote the song. (Incidentally, I saw Sia in DC last night and she was fantastic.)
I’m sorry Xtina stans but I agree with Trent. Her voice in the beginning sounded really rough, but she sounded good going toward the end. She has an amazing voice but I don’t think she’s been taking good care of it and that’s extremely important (see: Mariah and Whitney). The song is beautiful though.
That Grape Juice is kinda treating Xtina, like how Sandra Rose treats Obama! lol Like seriously did she do something mean to one you guys????? What’s the deal? Do better fellas, it makes your blog much less appealing when your on hater status 24/7, ask SR….. SN: She sounds fine, the actual audio is a little crappy, so maybe you guys should do a better job of finding good audio clips and not hating on a really talented artist that’s not being shoved into our faces i.e. RiRi, Bey…just saying *kanye shrug*
I was there lastnight at the taping and she sounded amazing…she sang a lot of her older songs and sounded amazing!
I want to point out also that for You Lost Me…she was sitting on the floor and still killed it
Oh and NMT vid…for being so irrelevant has been the #1 bought vid on iTunes…knocking Lady Gaga out of her number one spot!
I absolutely Love this song. I can’t wait to hear the CD quality version. Welcome back Christina. We’ve been waiting a long time.
ok You Lost Me is the X-Tina that I LOVE.. she sounds amazing..
don’t like the first song that much, but i love the 2nd one and can’t wait till it hit radios.
BIONIC the intro sounds like its M.i.A./ Santigold inspired….
can’t wait to get my hands on that f****** album. seriously imma buy 9 more copies if its really FIYA!
and if u dont like f*** u!
OMG she sounds AMAZING!!! Just listening to the brilliant you lost me, I don;t know any other vocalist at the moment that can hit them power notes she gets better with each album, AMAZING!!!
Cannot Wait To Get my Hands on This F***** Album. This is Definitely Going
to be Different than anything most of you have ever heared. Christina is A musician
and one of the Greatest Vocalists who ever lived. Looking forward to this album so
much. And the writer of this blog is Definitely a Gaga Stan/Jealous Christina Hater
who fears how well she sings live compared to others. Did you Hear How AMAZING
HER VOICE SOUNDS? DAMN????
