I mean, it is exactly what everyone loves these days. 
To each their own.

So I just listened to the album in order & I actually really like it.
Red Hot Kinda Love, Your Body, Let There Be Love, Blank Page, Circles, Shut Up are my favorites. I love her fun, sassy, cun-ty vibe.
The whole 'you can't bring me down, haters' vibe gets really old when I hit Light Up The Sky and Empty Words, so they won't be making my cut. I don't use. 
Shut Up will polish off the album nicely & politely as the 14th track.

Dissapointed.
I thought this couldn't be worst than Bionic, but it is. I love Your Body, but the rest of the album is just meh. The intro and Make the world move are decent. Let there be love sounds so generic, so Guetta, Stargate-ish.

So, I have been a fan of Xtina since I was 8. I'm 22 now. I always put her in front of any other pop chick 'til 008-09. She's still one my favorities stars and this is what I have to say about the album, sadly, not so good:
01.- Lotus Intro: My second favorite song on the album, it tells you how I feel about it. It's simple, it's MELODIC, it 's warm to the ears, makes you want to listen more, it's pure love in every way.
02.- Army Of Me: Oh boy what a GREAT tune this COULD HAVE BEEN. It's so great, I like the beat, but WHY THE HELL did she go THAT UP on the chorus, her voice sounds so strained, it's like I can't even go though the first chorus without wanting to skip it.
03.- Red Hot Kinda Love: My favorite on the album, it's sweet, original, very funky, the most ENJOYABLE out the bunch, I lolololove it, wanna sing along, coooooool me dowwwn lalalalalalalalalalalala. Most important, she keeps it cute &pop.
04.- Make The World Move: I don't know what's so annoying about this to be honest, it's cool sometimes, sometimes I just wanna kill her, at best decent 'love/hate' is the catchiest.
05.- Your Body - OUT ALREADY.
06.- Let There Be Love: Ok, this is ok, I can listen to this, I can TRY to bop to this, something doesn't fit, at least her vocals sound good. But It's too much, I ain't enjoying it like a Rihanna bop for example if this is for clubs, there's a point where I like it, then I wanna change to hear it NEVER AGAIN. I've tried many times tho. Kinda grower.
07.- Sing For Me: Meh, vocals out of control, earplugs please.
08.- Blank Page: I love this song tho it lacks MELODY, and at points her strained vocals make wanna change it, but then she turn them down and it's all cool again. I can go through all of it at least. Best Ballad on the album.
09.- Cease Fire: It's cool, it's original, the vocals are kind of on point, but it's ALL TOO MUCH. To the point I wanna skip, like the same problem in every song.
10.- Around The World: It's meh compared to the rest. Lyrics not my cup of tea. I don't use.
11.- Circles: It starts so good, so different, so great, then the first chorus and I SKIP. Great concept tho.
12.- Best Of Me: Cute.
13.- Just A Fool: This feels good, would've better if Xtina's vocals were smoother, but whatever.
On the bonus tracks, Shut Up is a bop mess, but MESS.
I am such heart broken stan, I give it a C at best.

Why do people want her to "sing" like the basic girls? 
I mean if you wanna hear a basic voice then there's plenty of room for you. She's special.

From what I've read, it seems that people either like it or don't... I cannot wait till I start listening.

So, I'm late.
Lotus Intro was cool. 
Army of Me had potential. It's missing something. It's good, but it's not what I hoped it would be.

Not really.
Most people have loved/liked it.

Which he did. YB is way better than LtBL.
LtBL isn't bad but it's very dull, it sounds like Scream. Didn't Max produce that too?

I'm in love with this album! I listened to it 3 times over in my painting class. One of the few albums I can listen through the entire thing!I Just A Fool is my new obsession.
This is my absolute favorite Christina album to date.
