letra de Intro (Back To Basics)
A very pleasant good evening ladies and gentlemen
It is now time...
The one and only...
There never will be another...
Christina Aguilera
That's how music should sound

Ohh yeah
I've waited for some time
To get inside the minds
Of every legend I've ever wanted to stand beside
It's like an endless ride
Feeling the lows and highs
Of every lyric and melody
Every single rhyme
So here I stand today
In tribute I do pay
To those before me who laid it down and paved the way
And so to God I pray that he will give me strength
To carry forward the gift of song in his good faith
In his good faith...

I'm going back to basics
To where it all began
I'm ready now to face it
I wanna understand
What made the soul singers
And the blues figures
That inspired a higher generation
The jazz makers, and the ground breakers
They gave so much of themselves and dedication

So here I stand today
In tribute I do pay
To those before me who laid it down and paved the way

Ohhh yeah
Hey... Ha

letra de Back In The Day
(What we're gonna do right here is go back
Way back, back into time)

Yeah oh

Spoken:
(Donny Hathaway, Lena Horne
Miss Aretha, [The Real Thing], James Brown, Billie Holiday
Stevie Wonder, Gladys Knight, Louis Armstrong
Minnie Riperton, Otis Redding, Etta James)

Back in the day, they used to say
Play that song, get it going, and the band played
And still today, you hear us say
Play that song all night long, Mr. Dj
Though times have changed,
It's still the same
We all need a minute to get away
So let it go and feel the flow
If you've got soul, let the world know

We're gonna set the mood
(set the mood off right)
Gonna go back to an old school groove
(go back to an old school groove)
Gonna rewind to another time
When the originators, innovators were alive, yeah

And we say now
So break out the Marvin Gaye, your Etta James
Your Lady Day, and Coltrane
Turn up your 45's, bring back to life
The sound and vibe of yesterday
Open your mind, enjoy the ride,
Get out tonight and grab that Soul Train

Take it back, take it
(Back in the day, back in the day)
Oh baby
(Back in the day, back in the day)
Won't you take me back?
(Back in the day, back in the day)
I'll do it
(Back in the day, back in the day)

Ooh yeah

Spoken:
(Y'all remember back in the day, you dig
Ray Charles, Nat King Cole, Miles Davis, Ella Fitzgerald)

Yeah
Now "Chain Of Fools" and "Respect"
Was the anthem of a woman, Aretha said
"What's Going On", "Let's Get It On"
Such classic songs, don't forget them
Though times have changed
They still remain my inspiration every day
So give it up for the ones
Who came before, opened up that door

We're gonna set the mood
(we're gonna) (set the mood)
Gonna go back to an old school groove
(go back) (to an old school groove)
Gonna rewind to another time
(rewind) (another time, yeah)
When the originators, innovators were alive (yeah yeah)

So break out the Marvin Gaye, your Etta James
Your Lady Day, and Coltrane
Turn up your 45's, bring back to life
The sound and vibe of yesterday

Oh baby

Won't you take me back?
(Back in the day, back in the day)
I'll do it
(Back in the day, back in the day)

So get up, re-live it
Gotta let yourself go
Give up your praise
Come celebrate
Just get up, get on it
Get yourself on the floor
Don't back away (don't back away)
Come celebrate (we're gonna celebrate, yeah)

So break out the Marvin Gaye, your Etta James
Your Lady Day, and Coltrane
Turn up your 45's, bring back to life

UnderstandVer letra 3:46

letra de Understand
I made you think, you don't understand.

I used to think that happiness could only be something
That happened to somebody else
Everybody believed, everybody but me, yeah yeah
And I've been hurt so many times before,
That my hopes was dying, so sick of trying
Everybody could see, everybody but me, yeah yeah
But then you came into my life, you opened up my softer side
And now I can see into your eyes
And suddenly, I realize.

I made you think, you don't understand
All the times you didn't understand,
Why you couldn't just be my man.
I made you think, you don't understand
There were many walls you had to climb,
If you really wanted to be mine.
I made you think, you don't understand
After all the hoops I put you through,
Now I see that I'm in love with you

Now, I hope you finally understand.

So many tears I've had to cry,
But you had many more of your own you had to try
But you stuck it out and you're here with me now, yeah yeah
And rememberin' the days I pushed away your love,
You called my bluff and you still stayed around,
Yeah you figured me out
Said, you got me down
And there's no way to lie to you, you know me better than I do

Baby, ooh, you see me through,
I'd be no good without you.

I made you think, you don't understand
All the times you didn't understand,
Why you just couldn't be my man
I made you think, you don't understand
There were many walls you had to climb (yeah)
If you really wanted to be mine (ooh)
I made you think, you don't understand
After all the hoops I put you through (through)
Now I see that I'm in love with you

Now, I hope you finally understand

Ohh.

Baby, won't you listen now
Can't you see just what I'm talking about?
Said baby won't you listen now
Can't you see just what I'm talking about?

Time went on, and I was wrong
To keep my distance for so long.
So afraid, you wouldn't stay
But you never turned away

Always right by my side
You're forever in my life
Don't you go
'Cause now I know
That in you I found a home.

Now I can see into your eyes
Suddenly, I realize.

I made you think, you don't understand
All the times you didn't understand
Why you just couldn't be my man
I made you think, you don't understand
There were many walls you had to climb,
If you really wanted to be mine
I made you think, you don't understand
After all the hoops I put you through
Now I see I'm in love with you.

Now, I hope you finally understand.

I made you think, you don't understand.

You're the kind that gets your way, uh
Every minute, every single day

You're blown away
Coz I don't want you in my space

You're struttin' 'round here like you think that I can't do without you

Don't you know you can look all you want but you just can't touch? (Just can't touch no)

After all of the games you played
How's it feel to finally get a taste?
You can dish it out but can you take the bed you've made?
Go lie in it for a change
I'm not falling for your stupid lies
I know you've dished them 'bout thousand times
Saying nothing but a nursery rhyme
But I won't buy it
Baby don't you even try

You comin' 'round here like you think that everything's about you
If you knew anything, you'd realise I'm wearing a ring

Slow down baby (Slow down)
And don't act crazy (Crazy hey)
Don't you know you can look all you want but you just can't touch? (You just can't touch no)
So slow down baby (Slow down)
I'm not your lady (Your lady)

Do you really wanna waste your time?
Don't you have better things to do with life?

But I ain't never gonna mess around
So how many ways do I have to say:
Oooh ooh oh

Oh MotherVer letra 3:46

letra de Oh Mother
Whoa, oh, yeah,

She was so young with such innocent eyes
She always dreamt of a fairytale life
And all the things that your money can't buy
She thought that he was a wonderful guy
Then suddenly, things seemed to change
It was the moment she took on his name
He took his anger out on her face
She kept all of her pain locked away

Oh mother, we're stronger
From all of the tears you have shed
Oh mother, don't look back
Cause he'll never hurt us again

So mother, I thank you
For all that you've done and still do
You got me, I got you
Together we always pull through
We always pull through
We always pull through
Oh mother, oh mother, oh mother

It was the day that he turned on his kids
That she knew she just had to leave him
So many voices inside of her head
Saying over and over and over,
"You deserve much more than this."

She was so sick of believing the lies and trying to hide
Covering the cuts and bruises (cuts and bruises)
So tired of defending her life, she could have died
Fighting for the lives of her children

Oh mother, we're stronger
From all of the tears you have she'd (all of the tears you have shed)
Oh mother, don't look back
Cause he'll never hurt us again (he'll never hurt us again)

So mother, I thank you (thank you)
For all that you've done and still do (still do)
You got me, I got you, (yeah you got me and I got you)
Together we always pull through.
We always pull through
We always pull through
Oh mother, oh mother, oh mother

All of your life you have spent
Burying hurt and regret
But mama, he'll never touch us again

For everytime he tried to break you down
Just remember who's still around
It's over, and we're stronger
And we'll never have to go back again

Oh mother, we're stronger
From all of the tears you have shed
Oh mother, don't look back (oh mother don't look back again)
Cause he'll never hurt us again (cause he'll never hurt us again)

So mother, I thank you (and I thank you for everything you've done)
For all that you've done and still do (together we always move on)
You got me, I got you, (you got me, I got you)
Together we always pull through (always pull through)
We always pull through
We always pull through

I love you mom

letra de F.U.S.S. (Interlude)
You know who you are
This is for you

Hmmm, yeah, ooh yeah, ohh

I thought I knew who you were
I see now you were a lesson to learn
And all I am to you now is a bridge that's been burned
Now I was the first to believe
I made you part of my musical dream
And your thanks to me, came without an apology, yeah

We wrote Loving Me 4 Me, don't Walk Away
Can't Hold Us Down, all part of our history
Don't forget Infatuation, I'm a Fighter
Feeling Underappreciated

Yeah, this song is for you to remind you{remind you}
That I moved on, sang my songs,
I've got no regrets{no regrets}

Mmhmm

Hope it all was worth it, uh
Looks like I didn't need you
Still got that album out

letra de On Our Way
Me and you, we're different
Don't always see eye to eye
You go left, and I go right[you go left, and i go right}
And sometimes we even fight
That don't mean that I won't need a friend, oh
You and me, we're in this 'til the end, oh

I think we're on our way
Through all the lows and highs
I need you by my side, singing
I think we're on our way
To better days, better days, oh
Let's say we turn the page
Move on from all the times
Should've laughed, not cried, feeling
What is there more to say? (say)
I think that we're on our way

Together, we'll weather
Many storms as family
That bond is forever
It can take almost anything
The love I feel for you grows everyday
The more we get to learn from our mistakes, yeah yeah

I think we're on our our way
Through all the lows and highs
I need you by my side, singing
I think we're on our way
To better days, better days, oh

Should've laughed, not cried, feeling (ooh)
What is there more to say? (say, yeah yeah)
I think that we are on our way

Someday, soon, I'll need advice
Hope you're there to she'd some light
And maybe one day, you'll be wanting mine
And we can (we can) be there be for each other

I think we're on our way
I think we're on our way (ha)
I think we're on our way
Let's say we turn the page
Move on from all the times

letra de Still Dirrty
If you see me walking down the street
Or in the pages of your magazines
Looking just a little differently
Showing off a softer side of me
They say I'm looking like a lady
They say that love has gone and changed me
But don't be fooled by everything you see
I gotta let the naughty in me free

There's a woman inside of all of us
Who never quite seems to get enough
Trying to play by the rules is rough
Cause sooner or later something's gonna erupt cause

I still got the nasty in me
Still got that dirty degree, still got it
And if you want some more, s***
Still got that freak in me, yea

I still got the nasty in me
Still got that dirty degree, oh yea
And if you want some more, s***
Still got that freak in me

No matter what you're thinking of me, still dirty
And if ya still rolling with me, still got it
No matter what you're thinking of me, still dirty
Still got that freak in me

Why is a woman's sexuality
Always under so much scrutiny
Why can't she do exactly as she please
Without being called a million things
They say I'm not the girl they used to know, used to know
Cause I don't always wear revealing clothes, oh oo woah
But don't be fooled, the moment I get home
I'm letting loose, giving a private show, oh don't cha know

There's some women out there
Who talk and stare
Who never seem to let down their hair
Like to pass judgement but they're just scared
And don't know what they're missing
So they better beware 'cuz

I still got the nasty in me
Still got that dirty degree
And if you want some more, s***
Still got that freak in me, still got it in me

I still got the nasty in me
Still got that dirty degree, oo yea
And if you want some more, s***
Still got that freak in me, oh yea

No matter what you're thinking of me, still dirty
And if your still rolling with me, still got it
No matter what you're thinking of me, still dirty
Still got that freak in me

Don't tell me to behave
Cause I'll never play that game
Don't tell me what to do
Cause I'll never be uptight like you
Don't look at me that way
Cause I ain't never gonna change
And if you're talking bout my life
You're only wasting your own time

If I wanna wear lingerie outside of my clothes
If I wanna be erotic in my own videos
If I wanna be provocative, well that ain't a sin
Maybe you're not comfortable in your own skin

I still got the nasty in me
Still got that dirty degree, in me
And if you want some more, s***
Still got that freak in me

I still got the nasty in me
Still got that dirty degree, in me
And if you want some more, s***
Still got that freak in me

letra de Here To Stay
Hey yeah yeah, whoa yeah, whoa oh yeah

Well everybody got an opinion now, don't they
But it aint no thang to me
It really don't make any difference now to me
If you don't like what you see
I pay no mind to the negative kind
Cause it's just no way to be
I don't stop to please someone else's needs
Gonna live my life for me

I'm gonna keep on, I'mma do my own thing
We all got a song that we're meant to sing
And no matter what people say, or might think
I ain't going no place, no I'm here to stay
Gonna keep on doing my thing
Cause whether they love or they're hatin' on me
I'll still be the same girl I used to be
Coz I aint going no place, no I'm here to stay

I'm here to stay
I'm here to stay
I'm here to stay

I've never been the type to be shy
I know that some would say I'm too headstrong
But I'd rather be a woman who voices her mind
Whether you think I'm right or wrong

And I know some people wanna critisize
Makes them feel better bout themselves
So say what you will
Time will reveal
In the end that I will be here still

I'm gonna keep on Imma do my own thing
We all got a song that we're meant to sing
And no matter what people say, or might think
I aint going no place, no I'm here to stay
Gonna keep on doing my thing
Cause whether they love or they're hatin' on me
I'll still be the same girl I used to be
Coz I aint going no place, no I'm here to stay

Gotta get up
Keep my head up
Gonna keep on turnin it up, never let up
If I keep steppin it up, I'mma prove that I ain't never gonna be stopped, like it or not
Gotta get up
Keep my head up
Gonna keep on turnin it up, never let up
If I keep steppin it up, I'mma prove that I ain't never gonna be stopped, like it or not

Woah woah woah

No matter the pressures that face me
I believe, I believe that we'll see
I'll never let anyone break me
All your doubt can do now is strengthen me

And life, it aint always that easy
Gotta fight to see past the boundaries
Crossin' the lines I will define
Every time
That forever is mine

I'm gonna keep on, I'mma do my own thing
We all got a song that we're meant to sing
And no matter what people say, or might think
I ain't going no place, no I'm here to stay
Gonna keep on doing my thing
Cause whether they love or they're hatin' on me
I'll still be the same girl I used to be
Coz I aint going no place, no I'm here to stay
I'm gonna get bold, I'mma do my own thing
We all got a song that we're meant to sing
And no matter what people say, or might think
I ain't going no place, no I'm here to stay
Gonna keep on doing my thing
Cause whether they love or they're hatin' on me
I'll still be the same girl I used to be
Coz I aint going no place, no I'm here to stay

letra de Enter The Circus
Ladies and gentlemen
Boys and girls
Step right up, step right up
Come closer, you won't believe your eyes
Behind this curtain,
Witness something you've never seen before,
Heard before, dreamt before
The most amazing show on earth

La la la la la la la
It's the most amazing show on earth
La la la la la la la

Do you want to be widely entertained?
People to know your name?
Do you crave fame?
Well they say "things aren't always what they seem to be"
Even your greatest fantasies
You won't believe your eyes
Won't even recognise
The wonderment that lies
Behind the shimmer and the lights

Is it true what they say?
Is it all just fun and games?
Or is there more behind the makeup,
And the faces full of paint?

I ask you, do you want to come and play?
Hahahaha
Get the world to come and play
Hahahaha

So sit back, relax, fasten your seatbelts
It's going to be a bumpy ride to the other side

letra de Welcome
Woah, ohh

Welcome to the greatest show
Greatest show on earth
You've never seen before
Here the fairytale unfolds

What's behind the smoke and glass?
Painted faces, everybody wears a mask
Are you selling them your soul?
Well you'll be left out in the cold

Is it all blue skies
Fun and games untill you fall
Then you're left without anyone at all
You're riding on a shooting star
With a smile upon your face
But soon the shine fades

And you're left out all alone
Wondering where did they all go?
Oooh

Been jaded, hated,
Who'll be around when the limelight's faded?
Been shut down, pushed out
Made to smile when I wanted to frown

Always taking a bow
Always working the crowd
Always making new grounds
Always playing the clown
Who'll be sticking it out?
Who'll be staying around
When the lights go down?

Candyman, candyman

(Sippin' from a bottle of vodka double wine)
Sweet, sugar, candyman

Hey, uh
I met him out for dinner on a Friday night
He really got me working up an appetite
He had tattoos up and down his arm
There's nothing more dangerous than a boy with charm
He's a one stop shop, makes the panties drop
He's a sweet talkin' sugar coated candyman
A sweet talkin' sugar coated candyman

Ooh, yeah, yeah
He took me to the Spider Club at Hollywood & Vine
We drank champagne and we danced all night
We shook the paparazzi for a big surprise (a big surprise)
The gossip tonight will be tomorrow's headlines
He's a one stop shop, makes my cherry pop
He's a sweet talkin' sugar coated candyman (ooh yeah)
A sweet talkin' sugar coated candyman

Wash-oob-a-da-dwee-dop-shoo-bop-a-do-a-dwee-dum-bow-ba-bow! (repeat)
Ba-bow

Hey, yeah
Oh, yeah yeah yeah yeah ohhhhhhh

He's a one stop shop, makes my cherry pop
He's a sweet talkin' sugar coated candyman (Oh!)
A sweet talkin' sugar coated candyman

Whoa, yeah
Well, by now I'm getting all bothered and hot
When he kissed my mouth he really hit the spot (yeah!)
He got lips like sugar cane, oh
Good things come for boys who wait

(Tarzan and Jane were swingin' on a vine)
Candyman, candyman
(Sippin' from a bottle of vodka double wine)
Candyman, candyman

(Sweet, sugar, candyman)
He's a one stop, gotcha hot, makin' all the panties drop
(Sweet, sugar, candyman)
He's a one stop, got me hot, makin' my "uh" pop
(Sweet, sugar, candy man)
He's a one stop, get it while it's hot, baby don't stop
(Sweet, sugar)

He got those lips like sugar cane
Good things come for boys who wait
He's a one stop shop with a real big "uh"
He's a sweet talkin' sugar coated candyman
(Say what) a sweet talkin' sugar coated candyman
(Say) a sweet talkin' sugar coated candyman, wooo
A sweet talkin' sugar coated candyman

Heyyy, whoa
Candyman, candyman
Candyman, candyman
Candyman, candyman...

Candyman, candyman
Candyman, Candyman...

Tarzan and Jane were swingin' on a vine
(Tarzan and Jane were swingin' on a vine)
Sippin' from a bottle of vodka double wine
(Sippin' from a bottle of vodka double wine)
Jane lost her grip and a down she fell
(Jane lost her grip and a down she fell)
Squared herself away as she let out a yell
(Squared herself away as she let out a yell)

letra de I Got Trouble
Mmmm, mmm yeah
Mmmm

I got trouble, trouble, trouble
Always knockin' at my door
Yes, I'm a whole lot of trouble, baby
Just like a kid in a candy store
Well, I'm nothing but trouble, babe
Not since the day that I was born
Well, I'm as good as it ever gets
Give you something you won't forget
If you wanna spell trouble, babe
Well, send out an S. O. S

'Cause baby's got something,
Something you just can't ignore
And yeah, it sure is likely, babe
You'll keep on comin' back for more

I've got a wicked taste for trouble
And I'm never, never, satisfied
Yeah, I'm a whole lot of trouble, baby
My evil ways can't hide

Oh, my my

Well, I've been itching for some trouble, babe
Every single day that I'm alive

*Scatting*

Come on baby
Come on darling
Come on sugar, ooh, yeah yeah
Hey, ooh whoa, yeah

Now listen
Can't you see the way I move
Can't you read it in my hips
There's a lot that's going on
In my pocket full of tricks
Got some secrets up my sleeve
If you know just what I mean
Got places you've never been
Take you out of your skin

Well I'm trouble, trouble, trouble, baby
Always knocking at my door, yeah
Yeah, I'm a whole lotta, lotta trouble, babe
Ooh, since the day that I was born

Oh yeah

HurtVer letra 4:03

letra de Hurt
Seems like it was yesterday when I saw your face
You told me how proud you were but I walked away
If only I knew what I know today
Ooh, Oooh...

I would hold you in my arms
I would take the pain away
Thank you for all you've done
Forgive all your mistakes
There's nothing I wouldn't do
To hear your voice again
Sometimes I want to call you
But I know you won't be there

Ooh, I'm sorry for blaming you
For everything I just couldn't do
And I've hurt myself, by hurting you.

Somedays I feel broke inside but I won't admit
Sometimes I just want to hide, cause it's you I miss
And it's so hard to say goodbye
When it comes to this
Oooh, Yeah...

Would you tell me I was wrong?
Would you help me understand?
Are you looking down upon me?
Are you proud of who I am?
There's nothing I wouldn't do
To have this one more chance
To look into your eyes
And see you looking back

Ooh, I'm sorry for blaming you
For everything I just couldn't do
And I've hurt myself, Oooh...

If I had just one more day
I would tell you how much
That I've missed you since
You've been away.
Oooh, It's dangerous
So out of line...
To try and turn back time...

I'm sorry for blaming you
For everything I just couldn't do
And I've hurt myself...

By hurting you...

Mercy On MeVer letra 4:33

letra de Mercy On Me
Lord have mercy on my soul
For I have walked the sinful road
That I'm down on my knees
Lord have mercy on me, please

Ohh yeah

Jesus, I must confess
That in all my loneliness
I've forsaken and I've sinned
Leaving fragments of a man so broken

I could tell you what I've done
Or should I tell you where I went wrong?

Well the more that I start to play
My deceitful, evil ways
Keep on growing stronger by the day

Oh lord have mercy on my soul
For I have walked a sinful road
So I'm gonna get down on my knees
Beg forgiveness to help set me free
Lord have mercy on me, please

Mother Mary full of grace
In my weakness, I've lost faith
I've been careless, and I have been warned
And the devil inside me is torn
God bless the men that I have scorned

Oh lord have mercy on my soul
For I have walked the sinful road
So I'm gonna get down on my knees
Beg forgiveness to help set me free
Lord have mercy on me, please

Woah, woaa yeah yeah
Woa yeah yeah oh oh
Oh-oh yeah yeah yeah, ohh

So don't let me fool around no more
Send your angels down to guide me through that door
Well I've gone and confessed my regrets
And I pray I'm not held in contempt
I'm so lost, and I need you to help me repent

Oh lord have mercy on my soul
Oh I'm begging, I'm pleeding, I'm needing
I want you to know
So I'm down upon my knees
Oh lord, I need forgiveness
I need forgiveness from you

letra de Save Me From Myself
It's not so easy lovin' me
It gets so complicated
All the things you gotta be
Everything's changing
But you're the truth
I'm amazed by all your patience
Everything I put you through

And when I'm about to fall
Somehow you're always waiting
Your open arms to catch me
You're gonna save me from myself
From myself, yes
You're gonna save me from myself

Ooh, oh yeah, mmmm

My love is tainted by your touch
Well some guys have shown me aces
But you got that royal flush
I know it's crazy every day
Well tomorrow may be shaky
But you never turn away

Don't ask me why I'm crying
'Cause when I start to crumble
You know how to keep me smiling
You always save me from myself
From myself, myself
You're gonna save me from myself

I know it's hard, it's hard
But you've broken all my walls
You've been my strength, so strong

And don't ask me why I love you
It's obvious your tenderness
Is what I need to make me
A better woman
To myself
To myself, myself
You're gonna save me from my
Myself

The Right ManVer letra 6:23

[X]
letra de The Right Man
So many years have gone by
Always strong, tried not to cry
Never felt like I needed any man
To comfort me in life
But I'm all made up today
A veil upon my face
But no father stands beside me
To give this bride away

Well, I'm standing in the chapel
Wearing my white dress
I have waited for this moment
With tears of happiness
Here I leave behind my past
By taking the chance
I've finally found the right man

Thoughts racing fast through my mind
As I'm gazing down the aisle
That my future will mend the memories
Torn between father and child

My emotions overload
'Cause there is no hand to hold
There's no shoulder here to lean on
I'm walking all on my own

Here I go

Now I'm standing at four corners
To have and to hold
Now my love, you stand beside me
To walk life's winding road
And I owe it all to you
For taking that chance
You've shown me there's a right man
'Cause I never knew the right man

Well I'm standing in the chapel
Ready to confess
That I've waited for this moment
With tears of happiness
Now I leave behind my past
By taking the chance
Whoa

Well I'm standing at four corners
To have and to hold
Now my love, you stand beside me
To walk life's winding road
And I owe it all to you
For taking the chance

And one day, my little girl
Will reach out her hand
She'll know I found the right man

Ximena: Es el mejor ÁLBUM de christina .. :)
Fighter: Simplemente nadie la puede superar ella es la mejor cantante que existe,ese album es genial.
joseph: christina aguilera es la mejor cantante.
Andres: El mejor album de Xtina :D ♥
Tamara: Sin duda sus mejores exitos, sus canciones con mayor sentimiento y las que mejores definen el paso de su vida tocando en cada una de ella parte de sus emociones y vivencias. INMEJORABLE.. Aunque los siguientes dejan que desear por la carencia de originalidad me quedo con este que es el más profundo y elaborado. No solo su voz es envidiable si no que es una gran mujer, sufrida y fuerte a la vez. Es SIMPLEMENTE LA MEJOR!
jhariana : Me encanta christina tu voz es espectacular no tiene superacion me encantaria conocerte eres lo maximo este album a sido el mejor en el q entras en el corazon de todos tus fans ... Con amor de VENEZUELA
