Daily Star UK: FIRST LISTEN TO AGUILERA'S BIONIC TRACKS!
WE had a sneak listen to Ag’s hotly anticipated fourth album. And it turns out the 29-year-old has still got a few surprises up her S&M sleeve. Here are our highlights:
BIONIC
Quote:
A raunchy, dub-flecked treat, reminiscent of Rihanna and Santigold. “Allow yourself to transform,” Aggy sings in a rumblingly low register.
NOT MYSELF TONIGHT
Quote:
The first single has been overshadowed by the risque video but it has pleasing echoes of Janet Jackson in her heyday, and Gimme More-era Britney Spears.
WOOHOO
Quote:
Christina tips her peroxide fringe to Kelis and M.I.A with this saucy dancehall number. “You know you really wanna taste my... You know you really wanna get a peak at my...” she sings seductively.
I HATE BOYS
Quote:
A glam-rock stomp with a deceptively simple chorus that will have schoolgirls singing at the top of their lungs.
YOU LOST ME
Quote:
This Sia-penned torch song about a cheated-on lady sounds like a classic. There’s a smoky vulnerability to Aggy’s voice.
LIFT ME UP
Quote:
Written by Four Non-Blondes’ Linda Perry, this could have fallen into cliche territory but the slick production elevates it to a modern, moody power ballad.
Now we need Rolling Stone, GQ, and Maxim
