She recorded this song in one take and you can hear the emotion in her vocals. A very inspirational anthem that was critically acclaimed. After the flop of Dirrty, her label quickly released this and everything turned around for her.
She won a Grammy for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance in 2004.
It went on to become one of her biggest hits since Genie in a Bottle. It reached #2 on the Hot 100, being blocked by B2K's "Bump Bump Bump".

It reached #2 on the Hot 100, being blocked by B2K's "Bump Bump Bump". To this day that is one of the worst things to ever happen on the Hot 100. B2K?? Seriously?? LOL. Anyway I loved this song from day one. I was being bullied very badly around the time this song first came out so it really couldn't have been released at a more perfect time. That whole Stripped album is flawless and is the reason why Christina is still one of my all-time favorite artists. |

Classic.
"Stripped" is perfection.
Although, I do prefer almost any live performance to the studio version, honestly

This is a classic, or at least very very close to it. I don't really listen to it much these days, but if anyone asks me about it, I always respond positively.

Decent. Should never (have been) performed live.

A perfect song from a good sophomore album. "Dirrty" was a big radio/music tv hit here and I loved it, so this song and later "Fighter" strenghtened my positive feelings towards Stripped.

Her persona bugged me during Stripped but in retrospect I think something decent can be said of its first 3 singles.

Classic pop record. So much nostalgia when I listen to this song, it was so different from all the R&B stuff in it's time. There wasn't anything like this when it came out, and it had such an amazing message.
Her vocals are so raw, and the fact that she recorded it in one take and left in the imperfections was amazing as well.

I love the song, but felt many overhyped this to it being bigger than what it really was. Nonetheless, powerful & uplifting message.

This was really good. It's definitely her signature song.

I don't care how overplayed it is. I can still connect very much deeply with the lyrics just as I did back in high school.

The best song Christina Aguilera ever did. Heard this on pop radio (B96, Kiss FM 103.5) and on AC radio (Lite FM 93.9, 100,3 FM). Also remember the music video on MTV.

This is a beautiful song but I never listen to it. I prefer "Hurt".
