CHRISTINA AGUILERA TALKS ABOUT NEW ALBUM, "BIONIC"

Christina Aguilera has been out of the music scene for a while. Her last album, Back to Basics released in 2006 was a success, but sold about a quarter of what her 2002 album Stripped sold in the US. Since then, with the exception of a performance here and there and a greatest hits album with Target, Xtina has been M.I.A. Well now she is preparing her new album, Bionic, for release in March. Xtina tells Marie Claire that this album "is about the future". She is also toning down the histrionics and using a more subdued vocal on some tracks. She says her new singing style is something that "maybe I've been afraid to do in the past, to allow myself to go to a place of 'less singing. I'm more vulnerable and more strong at the same time." That should be interesting. A couple of the songs she talks about are Glam "a poppy, hip-hop inflected throwback to Madonna's 'Vogue', the "addictive title track" and an ode to her son called "Lullaby" which was written with Sia. Also working with Aguilera on her new sound is Santigold, M.I.A, Ladytron, Dr. Luke, Sam Endicott (Shakira's She Wolf), Switch and, MY FAVE....GOLDFRAPP!!!! I can't wait to hear that collab. Xtina is currently filming her movie Burlesque with Cher due in November. [source] [image]
