Product Description

From Amazon.co.uk

Like fellow former Mickey Mouse Clubber Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera kicks off her debut album with a teen-lust nugget--in this case, the hit single "Genie in a Bottle"--that the rest of the disc can't possibly live up to. Aguilera has a strong voice, but patterns herself after iffy role models such as Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey. Aside from "Genie", most of this music is straight from the cookie cutter, like the less than successfully sultry "When You Put Your Hands on Me" and the Mulan ballad showpiece "Reflection". In chart terms, though, there'll be no stopping her--at least for a while. --Rickey Wright

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Debut from a Talented Woman, April 7 2004
By 
"royaldiaryfan2000" (Aston, PA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Christina Aguilera (Audio CD)
In the midst of the fake pop craze of the late 90s there emerged a truly talented and beautiful woman: Christina Aguilera. With her debut CD, in the wake of the debuts of her former Mouseketeer mates, Christina shows off her impressive range and singing talents.

The CD kicks off with Genie in a Bottle, one of my favorites off of the CD and the first single that came from this CD. A blend of computerized background music, Christina's amazing vocals, and an eyebrow-raising message, this song was definitely the best one to kick off the CD. Following come a few more of my favorites. What A Girl Wants, my favorite song when I first got this CD, I Turn To You, which is very different from the dancing music of the first two songs, and So Emotional, another more soft song with a sexual twist to it. Come On Over follows and although I enjoyed it, I like the single version of the song better. Reflection follows, the famous ballad from Mulan, which pretty much gave Christina her career. A memorable song with a twist of Chinese music in the background, which was different from the music of the other songs, the song is then followed by the more unknown songs of the CD. But don't ignore them, for they equally show off Christina's talent if not moreso than the opening songs of the CD. Blessed, Obvious, and Love For All Seasons are among my favorites of those songs.

An enjoyable CD and an excellent debut, I recommend this CD, however, if you want the real Christina and not the fake Christina, check out Stripped, which I HIGHLY recommend. Also, check out My Kind of Christmas and Mi Reflejo (which includes a few of the songs on this CD in Spanish).

1.0 out of 5 stars Keep this Genie in her bottle, April 2 2004
By 
This review is from: Christina Aguilera (Audio CD)
A lot of people praise Christina Aguilera, stating that she can actually sing as opposed to many of her teen pop peers. But let's assess her style of singing - it's basically a whole lot of caterwauling, taking one syllable, twisting and distorting it beyond recognition; she more or less shouts out all of her vocals even when it's not called for. The best singers in the industry know the meaning of restraint, a word that is apparently not in Christina Aguilera's vocabulary - she goes over the top repeatedly because she doesn't know how to exert the proper control over her voice.

This problem perhaps could be remedied if the songs were strong enough to make you overlook this, but no such luck there. Take a look at a song like "Come On Over Baby" , with such profound lyrics as "I got something going on / All my friends are gonna come / Gonna party all night long" - and that's not even mentioning the title phrase being repeated ad nauseum. Then you have "Genie In A Bottle" with the thought provoking "My body's saying let's go / But my heart is saying no", also employing a double entendre in the chorus a la Britney Spears - the fact that someone would want to sound like that talentless marionette makes her look even less appealing. The songs on the album are completely meaningless - they're all about falling in love, and Aguilera must have been 16 at the time she recorded it; absolutely no one falls in love that young. Also like the aforementioned Spears, expect plenty of maudlin, melodramatic balladry and precious little in the way of organic instrumentation - it's just about all sequencers and drum machines.

In summary: Irrelevant bubblegum that sounds even more out of date in 2004 than it did in 1999, if that's possible. Definitely not the fantastic album that some people were making it out to be.
