Christina Aguilera (Audio CD)
By Christina Aguilera

Don't write Ms. Aguilera off as the next Britney Spears. Unlike Britney's babyish and mechanical voice, Christina sounds soulful and powerful. (NOTE: Someone said that Christina herself was the only one making the Mariah/Whitney comparisions...not true. Christina has said that both singers are influences, but SonicNet, MTV, and many others have compared her voice to them.) Here's my little review:

1. GENIE IN A BOTTLE: A cool dance track. It sounds MUCH better on stereo than on the radio, though. It doesn't showcase her singing as much as the other songs, but is still a good song, though nowhere near the best on the album.

2. WHAT A GIRL WANTS: This one's got more of an R&B feel, which is cool. I also love the meaning of this one. Plus, the remix is really cool, and should be another hit once it comes out.

3. I TURN TO YOU: Oh. My. Gawd. How can you listen to this, then call her a one-hit wonder? That part at the end where she holds that long note...incredible. I'd like to see Britney TRY to do that.

4. SO EMOTIONAL: This is one of my favorites. It's got this cool bluesy feel but is danceable. I also love the lyric "It's either black or white, that's right. We're making love while we're in a fight." That basically sums up life.

5. COME ON OVER: Another great one. It's fun to dance to, but she sounds great even on fast songs. Her voice just has so much substance, so much soul.

6. REFLECTION: Christina scores another wonderful ballad. This one's got a great message that I really can relate to, and Ms. Aguilera's voice adds so much more to it. Very powerful, very wonderful.
