We are all glad for this major accomplishment but our main concern right now is her US sales. "Our" concern? Don't group us together. I couldn't care less about her having big numbers or a top 5 album. All I care about is whether or not I like the music, what other people do pr listen to is no concern of mine. As far as I know, "we" could be my dog and I. I wasn't including you anyway.

I really don't understand why they haven't "Bionic" to pop yet.

I had NEVER seen such a dreadful management from a record label. This era has been as fucked up as it has been in part because of RCA. Really, what are they thinking???

That's the thing, they aren't thinking. A second single should have been released properly a long time ago.

^^^I believe so. I've been a fan since I heard it- would have made a better 1st single but a possible second single to keep things afloat would be good too. Yet no one really knows what's going on since nothing has been confirmed.

Bionic is meh. I think Elastic Love would've been better. Either one would've flopped anyway, but at least it would've left her at a better position in terms of criticism, imo. These tracks make a better statement.

I have listened to this album all day long on repeat. I LOVE it!
"Bionic" or "Lift Me Up" HAS to be the next single. I think "Bionic" should have been the lead single, although I still love "Not Myself Tonight". "Lift Me Up" is beyond gorgeous and stands up there along with "The Right Man", right behind it.
PLEASE do not release "Woohoo". That one along with "Glam" are the only two skippable songs so far for me.
"Sex For Breakfast" is hot and sexy. I love it. It's as hot as "Genie 2.0" is. Her voice is like verbal sex.
I have to agree with everyone who says "Elastic Love" is a highlight of the album. I like the lyrics and the sound is awesome.
You know, it's actually kind of funny: Before now, everyone was criticising her for yelling/belting out her songs, or whatever you call it. But I haven't heard anyone bring this up during this era. Just a comment.
Overall, I give this album a 4.5 out of 5. The two skippable tracks I mentioned along with all the 'intros' bring the album down. But I love this new "futuristic" sound of hers. I'm not sure if it suits her or not. But it IS different. And I think that's what a lot of people are having a problem with. This isn't pop Christina, it's "futuristic" and "electric" Christina. I love how each of her albums are completely different from eachother. It shows she can tackle anything and has the talent to sing whatever she wants.

What he says is perfectly plausible, and thus makes sense. Xtina isn't going to cut you a check or anything, so stop trying so hard.

Elastic Love is not radio friendly. Hence why Gwen Stefani refrained from releasing similar sounding songs.

As much as I love Elastic Love, I wouldn't mind Bionic being a single. Either one will better represent the sound and direction of the album.

I think a ballad is her best choice at this point. Flop, but earn some respect back! Ballads is her department.

Someone please tell me why "Little Dreamer" did not make it on to the standard version of the album! It far surpasses all but one of the songs on the standard AND deluxe editions! OMG! Love this song so much!

that was a ricola i think not gum.
anyways:
Bionic: XTina's vocals take other pop girls to SCHOOL. Production is A+ I'm entertained! Nuff said.
TheRealJordin Eeeee! My copy of #Bionic is downloading from iTunes now. Have you gotten yours? Christina's voice is out of this world
lol Christina has a lot of celeb stans. Particularly Adam and Jordin tho.

To me it is a smart move...if her songs are not doing well this era why not perform songs from a different era that might get people at least curious about the new record...it doesn't sound right but oddly it makes sense and just like there is curiuosity play on the radio there are people who will see her perform her older hits and then end up remember yesteryear and give her a chance and check the album out. Sometimes a bad image is just to much but she has a fanbase and clearly they haven't supported her first two singles released there out there somewhere. They just need to be swayed back to the dark side her ;).

According to a girl who was there, she was sucking on cough drops and had her own people catch them when she was done with them. Some will still refuse to believe it but all it takes is a bit of common sense!

I can't believe certain people (aka stans of others looking for something to hound Christina about) are actually outraged about this. Obviously she didn't throw it at anyone in particular. Nasty? Kind of. But pretty funny.

I loved her perfomance on the Today show..Bionic/NMT were pretty flawless.
But i don't understand why didn't they show YLT on regular TV broadcast?
