Hot Song Alert: Christina Aguilera - 'Not Myself Tonight'
Well folks. It's here. The debut of the new Christina Aguilera single "Not Myself Tonight"...IN FULL. The verdict? DEFINITELY worth the wait! This song is HOT. I like it because it's CURRENT (God, I feel like that word is so cliche b/c of American Idol), up-tempo and sexy. Considering her last album was a throwback to jazz and old school R&B, a proper club hit was overdue. I also must say that while the song showcases Aguilera's vocals very well, there aren't any crazy, unnecessary riffs (i.e. - "Ain't No Other Man"). Christina's just doin' her thing, backed by slick production and sassy songwriting. We all know the girl can sing. It's definitely smart to make the first single up-tempo and radio friendly. Well done Sony! Written by Ester Dean and produced by Polow Da Don, this single hopefully gives us a little taste of what we can expect from Bionic, due out in the U.S. on June 8th.
Remember "Not Myself Tonight" impacts radio on April 5th and is available to download on April 13th Check out the song above and let me know what you think!
