"For it seems that the commercial disaster that was ‘Bionic‘ has forced her to recognize that in an industry where the likes of Adele and Lady GaGa reign supreme,the only way to beat her most critically acclaimed rivals is to join forces with them."

Saying "Bionic" was a disaster is not recognizing real talent and uniqueness. That last comment was completely unnecessary. The reason behind the bombing rates were most likely due to the fact that our music industry is filled with "singers" that all sound the same and that have no talent, take it from an actual singer. "Bionic" was artistically genius. I believe that anybody that is some kind of an artist appreciates the genius behind it. Listen to it and you will realize how the last few years of Christina's life impacted the whole album.
On a different note, I love both Adele and Christina; they are both amazing vocalists. I can't wait for Christina's new album. She's the queen and will always remain so. I really hope they make something together.
