I need her to slay this performance. Get that Blurred Lines boom on iTunes Xtina!

Are we sure she's not performing A Great Big World's "Say Something?" Perhaps that was the "surprise" she mentioned on Twitter the other day.

At least our girl is getting out there and performing. I can see Flo Rida snuffing off that other chick and adding Christina to the official record ala Fabolous Into You with Tamia and Ashanti. Plus we get 2 performances in one week. I expect her to perform again during the finale multiple times. Hopefully we can get that We Remain performance than.

I agree B=MAC about the Tamia/Ashanti situation LOL. I hope she sounds awesome at LEAST but I've never heard either song so I don't know what to expect yet.

The Flo Rida song is right up Christina's alley. It samples her favorite, Etta James on the hook. Very Burlesque. The vocal for Say Something by A Great Big World should be the stunner for her. It's very reminiscent of her work with Sia. A simple piano ballad bursting with strings near the end.

She sounds remarkably restrained on that vocal, which fits well with the song (I was a little apprehensive that her vocals would be too powerful and overbearing). Love the original and can't wait for this.

I have to say that contains some of her best recorded vocals to date. We've heard the soft side of Christina's voice on numerous occasions, but there's something really special about her delivery on this one. Also, it's so interesting to hear her talk about the song -- her interpretation and connection to it. She seems so genuinely touched by it. Actually made me tear up a bit. I hope we get the full song on Monday!

Honestly I love Flo Rida but the fact that she is performing with him when shes not even on his song

It's entirely possible that they are going to be releasing a version with Christina. Though it is weird that's not the version that was initially released. I guess we'll find out what the deal is when the show airs next week!

If the performance is well-received, I have no doubt that Flo will toss out a new version of the song featuring Christina instead of that other person.

She sounds gorgeous on that, and was as personable as could be in that video. Can we please get more of this Christina next era?

I find the song incredibly boring, but as I've been saying for most of her recent musical efforts, I hope it does something for her sake. Performances on The Voice have catapulted quite a few songs up the iTunes chart, and, as a result, have even helped some songs at radio. I think it would be good for her if she keeps doing these little collaborations to maintain some presence there. It's better than nothing.

When her voice cracks during the end I just lose it. There will not be a dry eye in that studio when they get done performing this.

Say something has the same effect like Jewel's Foolish Games. It's now one of my all time fave songs.

First time I heard the song, while drinking tea and doing something in the kitchen: they sound good together, nice job. Second time: I start listening to the song and the lyrics and tears are starting to run down my cheek as a natural reaction... Last few seconds it connected to a time of my life and shit I cried and when she cracks I cracked. Seriously this is beautiful. Xtina's voice gets me. I remember the first time I heard Hurt I cried for minutes
