Christina Aguilera just sent chills down my spine.

[live love laugh]

Singing James Brown's "This is a Man's World".

She was phenomenal.

[Booster]

1. Welcome to DU. She really is a talent to behold.

[live love laugh]

3. Thanks.

[mconvente]

26. she really is

Yes, she is beautiful, but god can she really sing

[givemebackmycountry]

2. I'm not one of her biggest fans...

But she stopped me COLD when she started wailing -

Give it up for Ornette Coleman too - a true genius!

[Roxy66]

4. Thank you for the heads up.....not on here yet.

[Bobbie47]

5. If I could

sing like her for one day I'd die happy.

[chimpymustgo]

6. Funny, I had JUST thought - where's the tribute to JB? when she came on.

She was terrific.

I hope they will have more of a tribute to the Godfather of Soul!

And welcome to DU :hi:

[live love laugh]

8. Yes she was terrific. Tears welled up in my eyes as they

often do when I witness greatness.

Thanks for the welcome.

[Olney Blue]

7. Yep. She was amazing.

Welcome to DU, lll!

[tridim]

9. I've changed my mind about her recently

Christina Aguilera v2.0!

[BayCityProgressive]

11. she's alright

but she's no Brittany Spears.:evilgrin: :sarcasm:

[alittlelark]

35. Thank God!!!!!!

Actually, given that I believe there is no god.... thank evolutionary forces for her range, her style, and her emotion.

[AZBlue]

10. Welcome to DU!

She has a phenomenal voice!!

[FrenchieCat]

12. Wow......THe show is not on here on the West Coast yet.....

But eldest (19) has tickets to see Christina over in Mass in concert....and my youngest (16) is flying to Boston for Spring break to attend the concert with her sis! They both loooove Christina going back to Ginny in the Bottle! :)

Glad to hear she'll be this great later on tonight!

Thanks!

[durrrty libby]

13. yep yep yep best of the night.

[blogslut]

14. The woman has pipes

Always has.

[Botany]

15. She has a set of pipes!

Talent and a stage manner that tells the crowd that she is in charge.

Nice Trib to the Godfather.

[Horse with no Name]

16. All I could say was wow

She nailed it.
It's hard to believe that she ever had to take a backseat to Brittany Spears.
It's pretty obvious who the talent always was.

[girl gone mad]

24. It reminds me of that Chris Rock joke..

The joke goes: Remember when we used to fight over who was better, Prince or Michael Jackson? Well, Prince won.

And Christina won the Britney/Christina dispute.

[Ignacio Upton]

34. Well that's how her producers wanted to market her

Unfortunately, in the teen pop context of 1999-2000, it made sense for the record industry to market that crap. While many of the "artists" that we were exposed to seven or eight years ago have since proven to be failures (Britney) I'll give Christina credit for being a good singer.

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

37. WHAT? Are you saying Britney Spears' musical legacy will not endure? BLASPHEMY!

:rofl:

[Imagevision]

17. Christina Aguilera never fails to impress me and I'm 50? nah, 27

[Cha]

18. Chistina was

SMOKIN'! B-)

[Catherine Vincent]

19. I really do like the way she sings.

She has her own unique sound. But I keep hearing some people say that she can't sing. I'm like :wtf:

42. yep, especially that last note, dayam!

[hwmnbn]

23. Yep, me too......

One of her earlier albums had an Etta James song "At Last"

I knew then and there this woman could sing!!

[MoseyWalker]

Times have changed

[HeeBGBz]

28. She put everything into that song

It was awesome.

[WinkyDink]

29. CHILLS is right! I felt them then, as well. Girl was BORN to sing R&B.
