What was her first one?

I only took the time to hear-out her first album and except for "Genie in a Bottle," it was all-rubbish. It didn't even have the best version of "Come On Over" on it. Nor do I think it had the single mix of "What a Girl Wants," and that song wasn't even very good to start with.

Once, I was reading reviews on her and decided to listen to the recommended tracks from whatever that "Dirrty" album was and wasn't impressed. Back to Basics probably has her best work on it, by far.

The initial printing of her debut album had different versions of those 2 songs, but later pressings have the single versions instead.

My favorite Christina album is Stripped and still is, I think Bionic may be tied for second with Back to Basics, but that could be because it's new...

Favorite tracks on Bionic are:

Not Myself Tonight
Woohoo
Lift Me Up
All I Need
I Am
You Lost Me
Vanity
Monday Morning
Birds of Prey
Little Dreamer

I heard the single remix of YLM. Absolutely ruined it.

I wish Elastic Love was the single. I Hate Boys is dreadful and it's too early in the year to release a ballad.

Elastic Love is horrible! I Am or Lift Me Up would've been better than You Lost Me, and yeah I agree, too early in the year for a ballad. Should've made a video for WooHoo. I Hate Boys is the single here in Australia, have no idea, its total crap.

Not her most interesting video. But she gave a great performance. And she looks gorgeous! Still one of my favorite songs on the album. Thanks for posting it!

I'm happy that the video used the superior original album version and not that horrible radio mix.

I like the simple video for this. A really good song doesn't need all the bells and whistles and contrived attempts at artistry in its video. *cough Lady Gaga cough*

You know what's funny about that? I quote from Lady Gaga's "Paparazzi" :

"My lashes are dry, purple teardrops I'm crying"
