The voice finds beauty in the music when they have developed CONTROL to stay in-tune and develop a certain mastery over phrasing to convey meaning.

And that's fine, perhaps that's where I find precedence of Christina verses Beyonce. Beyoncé is pure robot mechanics, vocally. Christina (as well as a whole other plethora of singers that I like from the old school) show the extroadenary with natural god given manipulation. You just can't create a voice like Christina's... Beyoncé's you can program it and amplify it as much as you want, but it just can't compete with what Christina has.
So go ahead... give me the argument about consistency, Beyoncé's ever-flawless gift of staying in tune, the bitch still falls secondary to supposedly sloppy imperfection... and that's what's so intimidating about Christina Aguilera. She's not even my favorite singer, but the line is clear...
