Peep this performance of former Pussycat Doll Melody Thornton taking on Christina Aguilera’s chilling ballad ‘Hurt’. With talent like that, no wonder Ms. Thornton couldn’t but vent at the fact she was consistently over-shadowed.
Melody may need to exercise more vocal control, but it’s hard to deny she was the superior vocalist in the group. I can never understand why labels believe that the Diana Ross-Supremes model (one singer, the rest back-up’s) is still ‘in’. Surely giving everyone some form of individual shine (even if not the same amount) helps broaden the group’s appeal, hence increasing their fan-base, and ultimately increasing what is the exec’s primary concern – money! Same goes for the handling of Destiny’s Child, but that is a different story altogether…

WOW… im shocked!!! this is good…
why the hell then did Nicole take the lead in Pussycat Dolls??? wierd.. im confused…
Uhhhhh She can def sing BUT we take s*** too far. While she is impressive her vocal quality grates on the nerves after 10 seconds. Where is the vocal tones and quality? Lets hope she can bring it and show what she can do on her on cd.
It was okay. I always thought she was a little tone deaf. I am surprised that she sings with so much power though.
YOU WATCHED A BACKING DANCER SING IT, NOW WATCH HOW IT’S SUPPOSED TO BE DONE !!!

I USED TO LIKE THIS WEBSITE but honestly how can u complain about the lack of talent in this industry when u dont even use ure platform to promote good artists
@ DANBOFFICIAL
Christina does not have a 6 octave range. Keep dreaming, she struggles with her high notes, low notes, runs and technique and she hasn’t even proven her studio range live. All those women you named are more vocally gifted than Christina.
On to the video, it was nice. But, it’s Christina’s warm tone that makes the song, but good cover, nonetheless.
ok melody can sing but nicole scherzinger was always the better pop singer in the group, Melody should have got more parts but she would have never been able to lead as nicole is a better dancer n singer n naturally better looking.
Dead at yall hating. She slayed! And thou i’m a Christina fan, Dan seems to be delusional. Christina doesn’t have or even near a 6th vocal octave range, she has just a bit over 4, 4 1/2 octaves at most. And Melody did a damn good justice to Chrissy’s “Hurt.”
Same goes for the handling of Destiny’s Child ..AND THE BLACK EYED PEAS,3LW,JACKSONS 5…
@THEKIDDZ
OH HELL NAWW YOU DINNT JUST TRY SCHOOL ME ON XTINAS VOCAL OCTAVE RANGE….
CHRISTINA CAN HIT G#6 B****, YOU SO DUMB YOU DON’T EVEN KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS BUT THATS A HIGH WHISTLE, TAKING HER TO THE 6TH OCTAVE !!!
EAT HUMBLE PIE B**** !!!
*WHO OWNS THE THRONE?*
*YOU DO MOMMY!*
DanBofficial, you’re a f****** idiot. Hitting a note in the 6th octave does NOT mean you have a six octave range. Vocal range is defined by the difference between your highest and lowest notes and if you can sing all the notes in between. Christina’s range is from C3-C7 studio, which means she has a four octave range. You #FAIL
CHIMIER, YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT, TAKE A SEAT B**** !!!
NEXT >>>>>>
B****, I know 50x more about music than you ever will and then some. it’s not an opinion. Keep failing.
@DANBOFFICIAL
I’m pretty sure I know more about Christina’s voice than you. As Chimier said, her vocal range is C3-C7, that’s a FOUR octave range; that she can’t even do live. Now she struggles with notes in the fifth octave.
YOU FAILED WHEN YOU FIRST MENTIONED AGUILERAS RANGE, (WHICH YOU GOT WRONG) SO DO KINDLY TAKE A SEAT AND MOVE ON….
NEXT >>>>>>>>>>.
Oh wait, I’m sorry. She has ALWAYS struggled with notes in the fifth octave, she’s an overrated belter.
@DanBofficial “CHRISTINA CAN HIT G#6 B****, YOU SO DUMB YOU DON’T EVEN KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS BUT THATS A HIGH WHISTLE, TAKING HER TO THE 6TH OCTAVE !!!”- HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! That is NOT the same as having a six octave range. Christina would have to go down to a G#0 to have a 6 octave range. Go back to school and learn to count.
YOU DONT KNOW S*** ABOUT MUSIC YOU JUST KNOW WHAT YOU’VE READ ON WIKIPEDIA YOU DUMB TROLLOP, I’M DONE WITH YOU, I CAN’T TALK TO IGNORANT PEOPLE..

If you know so much DanB….explain why Christina lacks vibrato on most of her notes. Do you even know what vibrato is?
Of course you can’t talk to ignorant people, you’re one yourself. As I said, I know 50x more about music than you ever will. I’f you can explain to me the D# major chord and its enharmonic, maybe I’ll believe you have a less than average knowledge of music.

She has a powerful voice, but the tone is awful and is anything but pleasant.
She did sound great on Sway, though.
SHE SOUND LIKE A DONKEY BEING R**** BY AN ELPEPHANT.
POWERFUL VOICE + HORRIBLE TONE =FAIL !!!
AVERAGE VOICE + NICE TONE = WINNING COMBINATION, TECHNICAL ABILITY IS NOT EVERYTHING WHEN YOU HAVE A PLESANT, LISTENTABLE TONE TO YOUR VOICE !!!
THEN THERE ARE THE XTINA’S OF THE WORLD…
POWERFUL VOICE + BEAUTIFUL TONE = MAGIC !!!

Didnt y’all post this video a million years ago?
I’m a believer! You better SANG MELODY!
SHE WAS OK ALTHOUGH YEAH SHE DOESN’T HAVE A GREAT TONE BUT STILL BETTER THAN FLOPCOLE SHITFLINGER.
@ARYO, ARE YOU DUMB? SHE WAS OBVIOUSLY SINGING IT LIVE…
HATERS ON XTINA’S BACK BUT DON’T WORRY SHE’LL BE ON YOUR FAVES BACK WHEN “BURLESQUE” COMES OUT AND SHE DROPS HER NEXT ALBUM.
Melody sucks cheesy balls
Thats how u do it melody show them why u left PCD its obviously because she had talent that was being held back now itst ime to let it show!!!!!
She has potential
The difference between DC is that BEyonce had model looks and a voice to match. She had the superior vocals of the group.
Kelly had her good days but most of the time even now she is off key pitchy and has problems controlling her voice. Michelle was good but her tone wouldn’t have appealed to the masses.
And one more thing, BEYONCE WAS THE LEAD SINGER BEFORE MATHEW EVEN BECAME THE MANAGER. I HATE THAT PEOPLE ACT LIKE SHE WAS ONLY THE LEAD BECAUSE OF HIM WHEN IN FACT THE PREVIOUS MANAGER PICKED HER AS LEAD.
And this girl is a good singer but not GREAT..>Face no one is PCD has a great voice.
Oh LAWD! I see the idiot @DanBOfficial is back in NON-affect! He knows absolutely NOTHING about vocal ability! Christina has terrible technique and couldn’t out-sing Whitney, Mariah, or Beyonce if she tried her damndest, sweetie.
Anyway, Melody was okay, definitely not better than X-tina, but still pretty good. She could use a bit of work.
And to Sam about the group reference, I think the difference between The Supremes/PCD and DC is DC actually had their best singer as the lead singer, as opposed to The Supremes and PCD who just had the most marketable (prettiest) singer as their lead. Not gonna lie, I did prefer Kelly’s voice at times more than Bey’s because Kelly’s voice reached it’s peak very early. In addition, if deciding the lead singer was strictly about ‘looks’ and just a decent, more marketable voice for DC then LeToya may have been the best contender at that time rather than Beyonce to some.

Beyonce is so adorable. which other a list celeb would do this.
@mr.m just wait n see how NICOLE shuts ur f***** hatrz mouths this november w new single POISON
must be a slow news day…… this is an old video that was posted on this site ages ago
@futurestar dumbass, I didnt say she was lip syncing,i said she cant sing live go n watch her “space” performance n ull see how terrible she sings live , btw HEARTBEAT featuring NICOLE iz on its way to hit top 10 in uk. yaaay
She has a really good voice, Kelly Rowland can sing really well. She does not for the most part sing off key. I would’nt say Beyonce’ has a superior voice, by todays standards may’be. She’s good but thats it. Christina can blow, and she sangs very well. Her sanging is the way she sangs.
Nicole has a great voice to me, she can sing Opera as well. Her technique is good.
@ARYO HOW CAN YOU SAY SHE CAN T SING LIVE WHEN SHE IS HERE? SO WHAT IF HEARTBEATS GOING TOP 10 THATS ENRIQUE TAKING HIS TOP OFF, COME BACK WHEN FLOPCOLE GOES TOP 10 SOLO…
she did well wen she was in x factor, so POISON is gonna go #1 in uk. no doubt bout it, cuz her flopped one peaked at #14 ,so this one goes #1. btw mel sang well in this vid, but she cant sing as good as nicole in front of a thousand ppl.
she slayed!
@Tiff
She def. has potential. Melody can do so much if she get’s the right ppl behind her. Vocal coach, dance coach and some great ass producers with a team (manager, publicist, etc) she could def. make a name (solo wise) for herself.
@ARYO, YEAH I THOUGHT SHE WAS A GOOD JUDGE ON XFACTOR, SHE’S STILL GONNA FLOP THOUGH. AND THE REASON MELODY COULDNT SING IN FRONT OF 1000S OF PEOPLE IS BECAUSE NICOLE WOULDN’T LET HER.
She’s alright but needs some vocal training
Christina has a 5 octave range and no one can touch her in the vocal department. Melody Thorton can sing her ass off though.
^^^Christina has a four octave range. Please stop making up horseshit and there are indeed singers that can “touch her.”
this clip is like four years old lol,,,, #FAIL
@ sarah … u are correct… 4 at best is xtina’s range. The modern Piano has 7 or 7.5 octave note range and she can not sing the width of a piano from bass to whistle notes. Singing up to a note in the 6th octave does not mean u have 6 octave range. Range is from ur lowest to highest note. Middle C is called C4…. so from C4 up to C6 is Two octave…. from C4 to C2 is 2 octaves down and I know she can not sing in Barry White’s vocal range.
her voice is really irritating!!! there is a reason why nicole was the only one singing in pcd…my ears are bleeding from melody’s HORRIBLE voice!!!
mmm…no, she can’t sing. Just sounds half decent. A lot of the force is coming from shouting.
Wow…that was loud, and erm…loud.
