Since completing 2006’s ‘Enter The Circus’, Christina Aguilera fulfilled their contract with Columbia Records and where under no obligation to release another album. This -song debut EP shows the promise that Christina Aguilera has. After seeing Enter The Circus, I had to have a good Christina Aguilera cd. Christina Aguilera “Back to Basics” is an amazing album.
Intro (Back To Basics) is just simply stunning. Makes Me Wanna Pray featuring Steve Winwood is kind of track that compels you to skip back and drink it in one more time before moving on through Back to Basics. I’ve found myself listening to Welcome back to back and back many times. If you are a Christina Aguilera fan, you will love Back In The Day. Candyman - This one is what it is: a powerful, primal invitation to love. Vocals of Christina Aguilera in Ain’t No Other Man really capture me and are set perfectly to the rhythm. I like Nasty Naughty Boy because it’s extremely catchy and has awesome drumming. I Got Trouble is flawed, nonetheless pretty good song. Understand is really the reason why I recommend buying Back to Basics. Hurt - isn’t quite as powerful vocally, but has a beautiful melody. Slow Down Baby - My least favorite song on this album. What sets Mercy On Me apart is Christina Aguilera’s innovative and organic way of creating atmospheres. It’s very catchy and easy to get into which is what you want in a song. Excellent vocals and musical performances. You can find feelings on this piece of art. On Our Way - This one has a powerful beat and a good melody. The Right Man - This is a very lively song. Without You is an upbeat song with a constant snare hit. Christina Aguilera sings Still Dirrty in such a comforting, confident voice that you can’t help but be moved. All of songs on Back to Basics and have something to say letting alone Here To Stay. Thank You (Dedication To Fans…) is one of the best records ever.
