Ready for this to leak now, dying to hear it after reading the reviews.
As one of the few people who loved Bionic, I am so excited.

OMG  check this out
Quote:
NBC's Friday night benefit for victims of Hurricane Sandy – set to feature Bruce Springsteen, Christina Aguilera, Sting, Billy Joel, Jon Bon Jovi and network stars Tina Fey, Jimmy Fallon, Brian Williams and Matt Lauer – came together in a rush of coast-to-coast communications, some challenged by sketchy post-hurricane cell service, throughout the day yesterday, organizers tell Rolling Stone. Newsman Williams texted Springsteen; Lauer called Bon Jovi; NBC executives reached out to Sting, Joel and Aguilera (who was born on Staten Island). All agreed quickly.
Aguilera was planning to fly from Los Angeles to New York to promote The Voice this week. When she called her manager, Irving Azoff, to ask how she could help Hurricane Sandy victims in some way, he wasn't even sure if she could make it into the city. "She's already talking about 'how can I do something?' and coincidentally we're trying to figure out if she's even going to do her New York trip," Azoff says.The manager and his team were frantically working on details when Paul Telegdy, NBC's president of alternative late-night programming and specials, called an hour later. "We're going to try to do this telethon," he said. "You think Christina's going to be interested?" Aguilera quickly accepted a singing slot during Friday night's benefit for the American Red Cross, and the post-storm travel plans came together.
"It's all hands on deck and everyone's in," Telegdy says in a phone interview Thursday. "People are working through the night dealing with logistics. Putting on a show dealing with artists of this caliber is very difficult. Frankly, there are substantial transport issues."The show will take place on the sixth floor of NBC's "30 Rock" building, in the Dr. Oz studio down the hall from Late Night With Jimmy Fallon. Plans are coming together so rapidly that most stars don't even know whether they'll have a pre-show rehearsal or even an audience. Sting, who lives on the Upper East Side, plans to perform solo."I don't think there are many details. I've called them several times to say, 'Can you tell me anything?'" says Kathryn Schenker, Sting's manager. "Guess we'll find out."The first star to accept a slot was Springsteen. "All I can say is that we were asked and said yes immediately," says Jon Landau, the New Jersey rocker's longtime manager.
Other stars, including Bon Jovi and Billy Joel, accepted without hesitation, too. Joel is dealing with hurricane-related damage at several of his properties throughout Long Island. "It was a no-brainer," says Dennis Arfa, his agent. Another source close to Joel adds that the native New Yorker contributed $500,000 to the Red Cross after the storm.For Aguilera, the benefit is likely to be the first of many. "She'll do this one and more as stuff becomes available," says Azoff, executive chairman of Live Nation Entertainment and manager of the Eagles, Jimmy Buffett and many others. "The phones are ringing."

No I don't, and her single performances and album performance proved that. I think it was a bad sequence of events that had the album prove disappointing rather than the quality.

So you perceive the quality of an album by its commercial reception? Those 800k who bought the album are happy, satisfied consumers. Example: Only because Up All Night sold like 8 million albums worldwide doesn't mean it's good. It's trash.

Agreed, it was a "good" record but it was't Christina Aguilera good. It felt dated. flat and devoid of life  . It seems Lotus is a true pop album, with alternative influences.

I really wish they would stop calling Army of Me Fighter Pt II because I feel like no matter how great it is that people will be a little disappointed.
I don't like it when they call songs 'the new _____' it puts too much pressure on the song.

Did you not read my post? Because I exactly said that I felt it was an unfortunate sequence of events causing lack lustre sales rather than the quality. I enjoyed the album.
I can't at you getting defensive when I agree with you  Calm down child.

I feel like this has the potential to be her best album since Stripped, her take on that theme but with new life experiences and a more mature mind.
