Christina Aguilera has decided to go with ‘You Lost Me’ as the next single off her ‘Bionic’ LP. The singer’s new album recently debuted on the Billboard 200 at #3 with embarrassing sales of 110k copies despite heavy promotion. ‘Not Myself Tonight’, the 1st official single from the album, failed to resonate with audiences and peaked at #23 on the Billboard Hot 100 before quickly slipping off the charts. {Source}
It looks that Aguilera’s team has adopted a new approach in an effort to salvage this project. With it being blatantly obvious that younger audiences simply don’t care about what Aguilera has to offer, her label must be trying make a play for the Adult Contemporary market which is generally more motivated to buy albums. While ‘You Lost Me’ is without a doubt one of Aguilera’s best songs in years, she will still face a difficult challenge attracting AC fans as they generally support more conservative acts such as Susan Boyle and Sade. Considering this fact, Aguilera might be wishing that she never got naked and oiled up in her ‘Not Myself Tonight’ video.

Trent,
You didnt tell anyone anything. Sit your stupid ass down and let’s have Sam post more than you because truthfully, you annoy me.
Anywho, this is a good look even though I was hoping for Woohoo and a video for it. It still may be hope though.
Anyways, Go Christina!
It was obvious You Lost Me would be second single, she performed i t everywhere…Im not mad, it’s her best ballad on Bionic…but it seems like the label is back tracking from her “new sound” and choosing a safe ballad.
I would have perferred some more relfective of her new album for the summer and save You Lost Me for Fall/Winter. I woukd have gone with: Bionic, Glam, Prima Donna or Eleastic Love…
She isback to Billboard top100 with bionic, not myself tonight and woohoo !
Great single choice. Good gracious, there should have been no debate between this and “WooHoo.” Maybe this would add more sales to that atrocity of 110,000.
And trent you album debuted at what exactly?
smart move. if she wanted an uptempo, she should’ve gone with “bionic” or “elastic love”
I LOVE YOU LOST ME

@ T-R-E-N-T : YOU ARE MENTALLY RETARDED!!!!!!
PS: YOU TOLD US WHAT PUNK ASS P****???? WHAT ARE YOU A FORTUNE-TELLER??
They are doing what they did to salvage STRIPPED… Which worked for that album after the lackluster that is DIRRTY… let’s see if this works out for her… I wish her the best!
They should’ve put out Lift Me Up instead. Way more universal appeal…
told you so ?
f*** off b****, you didint say s***.
Sam please sack trent, I’ve been coming her since 2007 and have no idea why you even employed the ugly jamaican c***.
@ TRENT- IF U ONLY KNEW WHAT YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT ON BLOGS.
IF U WERE TO ACTUALLY DO SOME RESEARCH, YOU’D LEARN THAT BIONIC IS AT #65, NMT REENTERED AT #75 AND WOOHOO AT 99
what is it with trent and hating on white/lightskin artists ?
skin envy ? because you have crusty ashy skin ?
me thinks so.
” younger audiences simply don’t care about what Aguilera has to offer”
I bought this album and I’m 18….is that not young ?
instead of plucking your own “fictionalized” facts out of the air……just keep yourcake hole shut.
how the f*** would you know the age of people who bought the album LMAO LOL.
……truly ridiculous.
and OMG who’s seen Trents twitter picture ?
Fugly much!
Ooooo Thank jesus I looove “You Lost me” Great choice!!!
and Trent —> SHUT UP!
Damm this site is disgusting with all the hate, always turning things to be negative, why wont u mention that her album is on top of the billboard europe album chart? Meaning its the biggest album in eaurope right now. U seriously disgust me
http://nique.net/entertainment/100858
They’re doing like they did in Stripped. I hope that it will be a big success too, it’s a really good choice 🙂
can this site please just go back to how it was in 07 when it was just sam ???
lets start a sack trent campaign….just put…
*SACK TRENT”
Hey you idiots not matter what song come out from bionic she is amazing!!! And the album is just amazing to. So heters bring you ass to another wed call man cacas c*** and sucked.and poor xtina ???? Not poor that all, she is one of the riches femeles in music industry, over 100.000.000 In fortune.
I really don’t see anything saving this album. Personally, You Lost Me is far from one of the best songs on Bionic. I think a better selection would have been I Am.
None of the ballads on Bionic could never top Beautiful. That song is a Grade A classic and is far more touching and it appealed highly to the masses.
I’m surprised you didn’t mention that “Whoo Hoo” failed also. It did go to radio — it was indeed promoted as a single. Two flops already from the album.
@JT woohoo wasnt released dumbass.
^^^^It flopped lol. Radio ignored the song, causing RCA little ploy for more interests in Bionic to fail.
@Love – never did understand why Dirrty did so badly in the US. In the UK it got to #1 and #2 in Europe. You still find the vid cropping up on TV regularly. Mention Christina over here and its usually the first song that comes into people’s minds.
—————————————————————————————————————–
To me it makes obvious sense to release a ballad as the next single, then after that something like Monday Morning off the deluxe album – this would show off the diversity of the album.
@sarah1, just because a song gains radioplay and enters the charts it doesnt mean it’s been released LOL LMAO
f****** idiots.
clueless.
Wow you people are such haters. If you dont like her fine, not everyones gonna like her, but why are you wasting your time commenting about her??? If shes such a “flop” and “hasbeen” which shes not you wouldnt be bothered about how many albums or singles she releases that do well or not. You people seem more concerned about it than she is. Shes obviously relevant to you people for you to be researching so much about her. I dont think shes very bothered about what people say about her to be honest. You haters including Trent really need to get a life and stop wasting your time writing and commenting about someone you apparently hate so much. Its lame and just sad and pathetic.
SACK TRENTIA
Trent always bring some SPICY things to make TGJ popular,,,
popular with haters vs stans Battle of Drama comments! LOL
tsk tsk tsk
“We’ve lost it all… the Love is goneeee…”
*SACK TRENT*
GOOD THING WOO HOO IS NOT THE NEXT SINGLE THAT A MESS
I love Woo Hoo. That’s my personal song of the summer even if it isn’t an official single. That said, I definitely understand the decision to sack it as a 2nd single. Audiences clearly aren’t interested in CA’s “Woo Hoo” and I think it’s time to get back to what defines her as an artist: her voice. Bionic is a strong CD and if this clicks, I think that she could do between 3 and 4 more singles from it.
Oh, and another thing: who is styling her this era? The whole platinum blonde/rock chick thing with the blood red lips is a real hot mess. She needs to get that together.
Potential singles:
Desnudate
Bionic
Vanity
Lift Me Up
Woo Hoo
Glam
I Am
Dan,
You are one of the dumbest Christina stans on this blog, so who are you to call anyone an idiot? Lol.
I am fully aware that Woo-Hoo was not officially released as a single. It was more of a buzz single, to get a reaction from the general public which is why the song was released to radio by RCA. Plus, they know how “hot” Nicki is so they tried to take advantage of that but not even Nicki M could stop Woo-Hoo from flopping on radio.
trent dont listen to them delusional stans. keep doing u.
he did say the album was gonna sell between 100k and 130k.. so thats where the I told u so comes at stans.
nothing is gonna save that album, fans like me was already turn off by that not my self tonight video.. cause we thought the album was gonna be about christime being a wife a a new mom(thats what she claimed), come to find out, shes trying to compete with gaga, britney, beyonce, and the other chicken heads who cant sing for s*** but use their body to sell records.
4 yrs ive waitd for an album like this. theres nothin new…as a fan i want my money back
im so disapointed at the direction christina took this time around. shes a great talented singer, but her arrogance, and her need to compete with gaga FAIL
*sigh* \trent being a hating b**** again *smh*
Yes the first week sales of 112,000 (US) were lower than were deserved but it’s not supprising, people buy albums after they hear a single they like. “Not myself tonight” was a stupid single choice as it doesn’t give any insight into the overall sound of the album and Hype Williams screwed C/X over with that video there was just too much going on.
Trent whare are you getting this information that Young people don’t care about C/X?
Do you have some secret information about the demographics of the people that bought the album? I’m 21 and bought it.
“You lost me” is a great second single and as long as C/X get’s a beautiful video and some sollid promo the sales will pick up just like they did with “stripped” back in the day.
oh dang xtina. How are you gunna bounce back from this one??
Her short lived CAREER is like DONE. Wow she just PROVES that 11 YEARS is not long at all. NOW 20 YEARS that’s a very very LONG fruitful CAREER. If you aiming for a 11 YEAR career you better be putting out ALBUMS TWICE A YEAR. Nobody wanna listen TO THAT DRY SAD MUSIC. She can’t PULL OFF FACE PACED songs then you really a FLOP. She might as well RELEASE another CHRISTMAS ALBUM. At least then SANTA might PICK IT UP to use it as a COASTER for his COFFEE CUPS.
Trent, you’re a b****. The end.
well NMT was her worst song and video to date.. the video was even badly edited and promotion for the single was extremely poor at the time of release, which resulted in a no:23 debut.. if she did promote it as much as she did last week it could have been a top 10 hit, but she didn’t except for one awful performance of the song on Oprah.. I don’t think shes ever felt comfortable singing NMT you could tell this by her personality on stage. You could tell she was more comfortable singing ballads like You lost me something she could really concentrate on her voice. The album wasn’t at all heavily promoted what so ever she did 4/5 days of promotion and that was it.. also younger people are taking sides between Christina and gaga all because of negative reviews and comments from people like you.. you are not making a fare battle what so ever, your heavily criticizing a legendary vocalist/song writer and actress constantly with negative after negative comments but you praise the ones with less if no talent at all. You should be inspiring the younger fans to be listening to singers like Christina Aguilera not talentless people like Britney, Gaga, Miley etc. It is just not on that you keep slagging off Christina all the time.. i really would like to know your issue with Christina why are you so negative towards her? its starting to look more like a personal thing to why you do not like her and keep writing negative things about her? i really want to know why you don’t like her? She is a beautiful character, shes not fake, shes says the truth, shes very caring and loving and shes full of talent and meaning. yet you dislike her?
XITNA IS LOVELY
BIONIC IS IN MY CD
@???
If you’ve seen any of my comments on this site you’ll know I’m a Xtina fan, but I can’t agree with your comment re Gaga – I can’t comment re Britney or Miley as I’m not fans of theirs and have never seen them live, but as far as Gaga is concerned she has a lot of talent and fantastic stage presence – Xtina has said this herself.
THE TRUTH IS IN PUBLIC, TO XTINA’S FACE TRENT
WOULDN’T HAVE HALF THE BALLS HE DOES ON THIS BLOG
TO SAY A TENTH OF THE THINGS HE SAYS ON HERE. THIS IS
HIS SAFE HAVEN FROM THE TRUTH THAT LIVES AND RADIATES
IN REALITY. HE WOULD NEVER WALK UP TO CHRISTINA, CALL
HER ALBUM A FLOP, TELL HER THAT HER SINGING SUCKS, AND LOOK HER IN THE
EYE TO TELL HER NOONES CHECKIN FOR HER ANYMORE. BECAUSE
HE KNOWS ITS NOT THE TRUTH. THE GIRL IS STILL IN HER LATE
20’S, SHE’S BLOWING COMPETITION OUT OF THE WATER WITH HER LIVE
PERFORMANCES, AND HER ALBUM IS DOING FINE WORLDWIDE FOR
BEING GONE FOR FOUR YEARS TO HAVE A KID AND DEVOTE TIME TO
YOUR FAMILY. STRIPPED GOT OFF TO A SLOW START TOO. AS SOON AS
PEOPLE REALIZED IT WAS OUT, THE SINGLES CLIMBED BACK ON TO THE
CHART, AND THE FOLLOWING WEEKS SALES SLOWLY INCREASED AT
A STEADY PACE UNTIL IT BECAME A NATIONAL SMASH. FIGHTER AND BEAUTIFUL
WERE RELEASED AND THE ALBUM WAS A GLOBAL SMASH. IT ROCKETED IN
SALES WORLDWIDE. LOOK UP THE NUMBERS. THERES A PATTER THAT
LOOKS EXACTLY LIKE HER STRIPPED ERA DEVELOPING WITH THIS ONE.
THIS WOMAN HAS SOLD OVER 45 MILLION RECORDS THOUGHOUT
THE WORLD IN JUST 3 ALBUMS. THROWING SHADE TO HER HAS DONE
NOTHING BUT INCREASE ALBUM SALES IN THE PAST. SO, WATCH OUT!
I think the single she should have released as the OFFICIAL 2nd single should have been “Elastic Love”
That songs sound fits in with what is currently hitting at radio, usher had to get into mainstream ElectroPop for his album to finally hit on (See “OMG”).
The other songs from the album that I think would have been a good release as 2nd single would be “Desnudate” [tht’d be my alternate choice besdies “Elastic Love”] as well as
“Prima Donna,”
“I Hate Boys”
“Bionic”
I really do like “You Lost Me,” especially from all the performances but I think she should have saved it for a fall release/early October, and who knows it could have helped lead into the promo for Burlesque or even made it onto the soundtrack. But “YLM” shoulda been saved for the 3rd/4th Fall-Winter single. Like some1 had said it is summer, ppl want to have fun and dance. Ballads are best suited for the Fall/Winter.
AnyWho I’ll still support her decision. I just really hope the promotion of ‘Bionic’ continues into 2011, and doesn’t stop because of Burlesque this November.
@number1k9
i like trents commentary. he’s just keeping it real. i share a lot of his opinions. xtina needs to sit down and rhianna & ciara do not have vocal abilities.
It’s not that the general public didn’t like Not Myself Tonight, but the biggest American Radio Stations like KIISS FM, crealy boycotted the song.
I actually really liked “Not Myself Tonight”… a lot. The music video was not a wise decision, considering that both teenagers and adults alike do not want to see Christina parading around in leather, dominatrix outfits, while “kissing on the boys and kissing on the girls”.
“Bionic” is a great album, much better than “Back to Basics” IMO. Still… maybe it’s just that Xtina has lost her charm. I feel that another album is going to be due from her in 2012 to save these disastrous sales.
