Must Hear: A Great Big World – ‘Say Something (Ft Christina Aguilera)’

Published: Monday 4th Nov 2013 by David

Christina Aguilera joins Epic’s ‘A Great Big World‘ in releasing a Pop masterpiece today, joining forces to record the latter’s ‘Say Something‘!

Marking cooler and calmer territory for the ‘Let There Be Love’ vocalist, this version of the number comes after Aguilera heard it being spun during an episode of Simon Fuller‘s ‘So You Think You Can Dance’ and – after becoming enamoured by the release- called on its creators to forge the duet you’ll no doubt fall in love with below…

Perfection.

With talk of a new Aguilera album heating up, the above goes a long way to prove that all signs should point to Adult Contemporary this time around, especially with ‘Lotus‘ finding the bulk of its ‘commercial glory’ in the cuts akin to this and not the ‘Your Body’s and ‘Let There Be Love‘s of her world.

So, let us know…

Do you love ‘Something’ just as much as we do?!

Weigh in below…

  11. Keyshia Cole November 4, 2013

    FLOPTUS

    • ok November 4, 2013

      • Keyshia Cole November 4, 2013

        Woman 2 Woman outsold Floptus and Floponic

    • ok November 4, 2013

      By 23,000 copies, slayy? But at least people can name Xtina’s “flop” albums can’t say the same for any ghettoshia albums

      • Keyshia Cole November 4, 2013

        Lotus ain’t Even sell 300k. W2W – 350k mad???

      • ok November 4, 2013

        I’m not mad, it flopped everyone gets it. Lol, I can handle that

    • ok November 4, 2013

      And Bionic sold 110k copies so I don’t see how she outsold her but OK.

    • ENOUGH ONIKA (KMART QUEEN) November 4, 2013

      Ugly and hateful, just like your fav

  12. RICHIE_RICH November 4, 2013

    Beautiful Ms.Aguilera

  13. christinastherealtalent November 4, 2013

    This is what Christina needs!

  14. JFB November 4, 2013

    i am in TEARS. People may sleep on Christina Aguleria and call her a FLOP but 1 thing they cant deny is that the b**** can BLOW !!!! Gr8 song. Just beautiful…

  15. ENOUGH ONIKA (KMART QUEEN) November 4, 2013

    Ok THIS is it Christina!! THIS is your new sound!! Forget the “Your Body” crap, your lane is adult contemporary now! It was flawless!! This gives me that feel of when she was younger and slaying it. She found her spark again!

    • XYZ November 4, 2013

      “your body” was a nice song…

      the rest of “lotus” is crap though

      • ENOUGH ONIKA (KMART QUEEN) November 4, 2013

        Eehh “your body” didn’t sit right with me. Christina should have more to sing about by now. It wasn’t a good look to me, seemed desperate

    • HOWYOULIKEIT November 4, 2013

      your body was not crap. Hot tempo or ballad christina always slays

  16. Lovebird (Britney Jean – 03.12.13) November 4, 2013

    Beautiful, love it. Well done Xtina.

  17. DOSSOME November 4, 2013

    I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!

  18. JOHNVIDAL November 4, 2013

    Xtina girl: this is your sound. You sound beautiful when you sing like this. Try albums with adult contemporary sound and that´s it. You´ll probably never have a hit single ever again if you do so… but so what? Talent is more important and it´s not like you´re going to get a new hit for sure if you release Your Body type of songs.
    Oh and please don´t ever belt again. Give us “S** for Breakfast” type of vocals and songs and that´s it.

    THE VOICE OF OUR GENERATION. #Period

    • Realest November 4, 2013

      to be the voice of a generation you must encompass a body of work (music) that coincides with that generation as well.. Unfortunately xtina left that coinciding music with Stripped (her last universally accepted and utterly amazing body of work) so i disagree.. Not enough fans for all that- PERIOD

      • Navy Nick November 4, 2013

        THANK YOU REALEST- VERY WELL SAID!!!! not hating on Christina, but yes, you are 100% correct!

      • ok November 4, 2013

        She was presented with an award for it so… Awkard

    • mr.m November 4, 2013

      LOL!
      It’s not my problem you don’t like B2B, Bionic or Lotus!
      ALL HER ALBUMS ARE MASTERPIECES
      AND the voice is the VOICE!!
      She’s known as THE VOICE OF OUR GENERATION
      AND YOU HAVE TO DEAL HONEY!
      Stay pressed coz ur fave could never 🙂
      Bye

  20. Realest November 4, 2013

    Decent listening but nothing epic. Good to hear her NOT trying to do every “soulful” run in the book and NOT trying to scream notes out of her range. Pleasant .

    • all4u1 November 4, 2013

      Actually, Christina’s run’s, high notes and soulful vocals is what makes her one of the Greatest vocalist of today.

  21. Ju don’t even know November 4, 2013

    Christina needs to start making more music like this. This was just great.

  22. Navy Nick November 4, 2013

    this sounds really good, BUT it sounds more like she was just used for the background, and chorus, no verses for just her? NICE SONG OVERALL, but yeah…it didn’t feel like hers

    • ok November 4, 2013

      It didn’t feel like hers because its not her song… She heard the song and wanted to put down her vocals on it.

  23. Cicilover November 4, 2013

    Tramp I will never get over the slutty stripped era s***

  24. Fabio November 4, 2013

    OK she doesn’t sell anymore like ten years ago, but hardly no one does! I remember times when Celine Dion sold 20 Million records in two hours – thats long gone and no one can do that anymore!

    And yeah she belts a lot but she has always had songs on her albums where she showed versatility. I for one love that she gives everything her own spin! If she feels like belting on her own songs let her do it – no one has to listen! In this case she shows respect to the artists that own the song (its not hers!) and just gives some new perspective to the song.

    I want her to do more stuff like that (Save me from myself; Loving me for me; Falling in Love; Birds of prey; Monday Morning)!!!

    And no one should give a damn about if its commercially successful! Maybe not even musically relevant but her (and what ever she feels like)!!!

    Great song all in all! Congrats to A great big world and that they found each other on this song!

  25. cocobutta November 4, 2013

    These are the REAL textures and sounds I love from Xtina.

    Beautiful song and I hope this is the blueprint to her delivery on this next album.

    She can still belt and be strong but just no need to over push. Reign it in to give us the CLASS we know her vocals to have.
