I liked this song a lot when it came out. It had kind of a 40s sound to it.

Awful. Immediately comes to mind when I think of what I'd consider her worst single. Even more irritating as a single because she had a few songs on that album that had much more hit potential.

I LOVE the video for this one and I can see why it was chosen as a single, but it hasn't aged well for me.
I much prefer ANOM.

I loved this song!!!!! That best was everything and the video is her best. It also had some amazing house mixes.

This song's pretty good, but I wasn't crazy about it.

Not one of my favorites from B2B, but it's a fun song.

How can anyone NOT love the video! I loved the song too but it was extremely bizarre it ever released when she had "Slow Down Baby". A mess but anyway the video is will cross 100 million views within the next month or so (her 5th to do so).

I've listened to this a ton lately.
It perfectly captures the "throwback with a modern twist," and the video is so great.

Love it. A great throwback single. It's just fun and catchy. It's not groundbreaking, but it wasn't supposed to be.

Catchy as f***.
Can't believe it wasn't a bigger hit, it did so well in New Zealand & Australia

I still love this. It's a cute homage to the Andrews Sisters. I was disappointed that it underperformed, but considering that it sounded nothing like anything out at the time, it did quite well.
I was a huge fan of the Offer Nissim remix. Since the song was at a tempo that would not lend itself well to a traditional Dance mix, he took selected phrases and ad libs and made his mix with those. RedOne had also remixed it, but it was in the same vein as the original.

This is one of my favorite Christina songs ever. Christina is an artist that is known most for her signature vocals over having a signature kind of sound or lyrics.
As a fan, I love a lot of her material, but "Candyman" is one of the few songs that she has that makes me go "Only Christina Aguilera could have come up with a song like this." This song is special in her discography for me because of that. It's cheeky, catchy, naughty, and specifically inspired. Just great.
The radio edit of this song is one of my all-time peeves that I've ever seen from following music.

As an homage, it's fine. As a single? WTF were they thinking with this? The video is cute though.

Love this song! It's so cute. I always thought this should have been the second single instead of "Hurt".

I prefer Hurt and Ain't No Other Man to this, but it's still a catchy tune
Gives a very classic old timey feeling that is only furthered tenfold by the music video.
Back To Basics really got her best music videos tbh
