A sexy song for an eleven year old. I feel like a dirty old man, I need a shower.

[loveizshtxXx]

[slipsevenfold]

She has a great voice but she sort of sucks the rock'n'roll out of this song.

[MeganEmanuelaFox]

Wow , she is a Real blonde !!!

[maucravelli]

[ShotUrGoldFish]

[HopeFor85]

It's so hard to think she's 11 here, she has a voice like a 25 year old,fuck, she sings better than ALL the 20 year olds over in the biz

PURE pure talent

[Airaheta1fan]

Christina is amazing..

[joyochannel]

thats pure talent! I mean... genius

[SokSa]

an eleven year old girl singing like this? I don't care who she is, but this little girls should have developed into a diva by the time she is 18. oh well...

[MrsXstrapon]

@SokSa you dont know christina aguilera? :O 

[SokSa]

@MrsXstrapon I was being sarcastic Mrs Strapon. I would've like to known you as well, I guess... so do you wear a strapon, or are you a strapon?

[ArianaGlory]

@SokSa Ummm.... You are seriously dumb... She was famous at the ages of like 8

[SokSa]

@ArianaGlory LOL. Ummm, and you have trouble telling sarcasm, but I am sure you are a well functioning member of your society despite this shortcoming ArianaGlory :))

[dnb419]

@gailmckanag You're right on, she squeals. We're part of the .06% that "lilmeandude" calls idiots. He prob thinks rap is music...over dubs & spoken words. She sings in a lower key on the only other song I've heard. Still has probs with the high notes so she learned to sing within her range...killed "Black Velvet" tho.

[dnb419]

@TheWhoriahcarey I forgot to @ you...just want to make certain you get the message. "RNF'NR" \m/___(°-°)___\m/

[dnb419]

@KellieTemplin Didn't press dislike by ax, I think she sounded like a wet cat's shriek.

[dnb419]

TheWhoriahcarey WTF? I'm a HEAVY METAL grrrl. Your picture looks like you should be a member of a fat ass Whor cult.

[dnb419]

@CaviarDreamer Didn't you just hear her sing before she was famous??? Dream On...

[1949Jens]

Never seen this before, but all I say " WAOOWWWWW " at the age of 11 ?? !!! so unbelievble with so much NERVE and " ALL "

[KellieTemplin]

188 people accidentally clicked dislike, thinking it said like(: this is good

[CaviarDreamer]

imagine hearing her sing before she was famous...

[PinkyxOmgg]

i frickinggg love her.

[lilmeandude]

.06% are idiots. How do you dislike talent like this. There is no smoke or stupid distract ing things just straight voice..06% percent probably can't read

[955pokerface]

11 years old

incredible

[johanna71881]

Eek!!! Did anyone else notice that her timing is WAY off???

[NorfaziraManan]

@johanna71881 who care? :x

[jokkobengo]

@johanna71881

It's not bad off. She makes it her own.

[beangie]

She got talent, but chicken legs :3 cute anyways! :P

[NaomiNoMiko]

she was like 11 or 12 here wow

[gailmckennag]

she squeals, it's not in tune.still the same.loud but not good.

[955pokerface]

@gailmckennag

she wasnt even a teenager here

she was 11 and sounded damn good for her age

[MsVictoria3006]

Wow!!! Just 11 years? That`s impossible!

[zozokastar]

it is the first time i see her legs..now i understand why!!

[NailgunDeath]

She's off key but she's got talent. Good thing she chose to sing mindless pop though because she don't feel the blues.

[orero1717]

Everyone she was 11 years old when she sang this. I wonder how shed sound if she sang it now.

[ipesina]

@orero1717: I can imagine it.

[bragatube]

She’s so f*cking talented! Love her <3

[robZzdaboss]

if u listen the original and then this one cant help noticing shes a little off key. could be the sound quality of outdated recording with camera mic

[dnb419]

@fightnight1989 You're trolling too, asshole. MORE IRONIC, HA HA!!!

PS: She still killed the chorus of that sexy, sultry, mega award winning song.

[TheWhoriahcarey]

@dnb419 Are you a member of gay-jehovah's witness?

[Hacochi]

oh my g

[RikaChanChannel]

She was really... HOT! o.O XD

[MrDustypu]

Note to commenters saying she was "off key" or "couldn't hit the notes": She actually was hitting the right notes and was in key. What was off was her phrasing. She was dragging the song a bit, especially at the chorus - but this happens when singers discover how to make pretty tones - they forget phrasing. She was, however, only 11. Homegirl showed promise and she delivered.

[dnb419]

@MrDustypu Have you heard the original? She was not close to the right notes. The chorus was what she fucked up, that's where she massacred such a sexy, sultry song. Her "phrasing" problem was with our country's NATIONAL ANTHEM. I know it's a new song but that's "what happens when singers discover how to make pretty tones"??? Did you really say that? Then, she says how much she loves HER COUNTRY. Isn't it OUR COUNTRY? She could have just said oops, but then again, some people are never wrong...

[MrDustypu]

@dnb419 @dnb419 @dnb419 I have heard the original. She sang the right notes. Please google the terms "musical phrasing" and "musical notes". After reading up on the definitions provided in wikipedia I think it will be clear why I'd stand by my original comment. And for the record: I was commenting about the confusion surrounding some key musical terms that were being misused in regards to THIS specific performance.

[dnb419]

@MrDustypu Phrasing is sometimes also taken to include aspects of musical shaping, other than the timing of melodies, such as articulation and dynamics, etc. In music, the term note has two primary meanings: A sign used in musical notation to represent the relative duration and pitch of a sound;

A pitched sound itself. She does not hit the pitched sound of the original score. I continue to believe if you can't hit the notes, pitch sound,correctly, don't "cover" a song by massacring the chorus.

[RhythmAddictedState]

Oh my god she was so talented at such an age! And her voice sounded already like her voice now. :')

[aaronj188]

lol i like this version now :)

[dnb419]

@jennyflannel A cover song is a tribute to the original. Allanah won a Grammy for the original. You shouldn't ruin your tribute. It's a compliment, not a crappy try,

[dnb419]

@EvilHenchman10 You are so stupid. She's a Latina not white. Why does your kind always throw the race card? Jealous, no. Content where I am. Money is the root of all EVIL, I'm 52 & have heard ALOT of music. She CAN'T HIT THE HIGH NOTES. 1st time I heard this song @ a bikers bar I was amazed! If you do a cover of a song, don't MASSACRE it! 11 or 31, if you can't sing the song, don't ! Pick one you can handle. She can belt it out but that's not all that's important to be a great singer. RNF'NR\m/

[limeGREENteaZONA]

@dnb419 i agree with you. she cant hit the high notes and it sounds out of tune. theres no denying that shes a good singer but i feel that this song was a little much for her at age 11. im sure she would be able to sing it great now. her voice is much stronger and if she tryed to sing it again it would probably be much better. however i dont think this was terrible just not as great as everyone is saying it is.

[fightnight1989]

@dnb419 Sorry but you talk about racism and then you say "Your kind"... Not everyone is like that so please do yourself a favour and think before you type out shit.

[dnb419]

@fightnight1989 SORRY, but where did I talk about racism? What comment were you reading? I simply stated that she was Latina, not white. Why must there be a distinction between colors, religion or sexual pref? Your kind was a reference to ALL prejudiced people. Also, please do US ALL A FAVOR and think before shit flows from you. Thanx.

LONG LIVE ROCK!!! \m/

[fightnight1989]

@dnb419 Might wanna try Re-wording it then so it doesnt sound like that. Oh and Doesnt shit flow from everybody? Wouldnt be very healthy if it didnt.

[dnb419]

@fightnight1989 I was talking about a comment: "A white girl singing like this only comes round every 1000 yrs..." I disagree with this. Who else says WHITE GIRL? A prejudiced person.I simply made the distinction that she's Latina. SO WHAT? No racism as you accused, no remark about color, religion or sexual preference. There have been many WHITE GIRLS who sing better than that in the past 1000 years, even 100. I ran out of words and meant the shit flowing from your mouth dumbfuck. I'M LATINA \m/

[fightnight1989]

@dnb419 Your trolling and your calling me a dumbfuck, Ha Ironic.

[17410Manuel]

@

Christina is white , blonde and she has beautiful blue eyes ;) and a great voice

[dnb419]

@17410Manuel "Christina Aguilera is a bilingual singer mixed with Irish and ECUADORIAN roots"."...wears bright blue contact lenses..."."...straw like extensions and wigs..."."....world's best selling LATIN female...". 4 tattoos; one says "Te Amo Siempre"."She has even made a Latin album...on a second one"."...father Fausto Xavier Aguilera is of Ecuadoran (Spanish & Native American) descent...mother...is of German descent...and of Irish, Welsh and Dutch descent". From imbd.com. SHE'S FAKE!!! \m/

[17410Manuel]

@dnb419

She isnt a fake , why u say that?

She is gorgeous , and whats the matter if she is latina , german or black?!!!

She is gorgeous , althought his father is ecuatorian , she is blonde.

[dnb419]

@17410Manuel DON'T CRY! "Why has she been looking so tacky lately?"."she just seems to be looking tackier and tackier lately"."I agree.. tacky and trashy. She's still trying to squeeze her ass into a size 2.. she's not fat, she's just not a size 0-2 anymore."."She wore blue, pink, purple, red, orange, black, blonde, etc hair...in huge blonde afros and drag make up... weird clothes that made you go "WTF is she doing!... she makes herself ugly by dressing weird!" ALL QUOTES on IMDb.com, check 'em.

[rfletcher09]

@17410Manuel Christina is not white.. i mean she sorta looks white but shes not all the way white, she's mixed... my mom has blonde hair blue eyes and ivory colored skin and me i have total opposite, dark brown hair, brown eyes, semi-dark skin..and its from my moms side..funny how Genes play a role... and yea she(christina) does have a great voice.

[17410Manuel]

@rfletcher09

Uh Ok , she is white to me i mean , she is whitter than Britney who is totally American!

Maybe her father was ecuatorian and white! Im from Argentina and im blonde and my sister redhead and what w are to you? Im from Latinoameric and my hair is blonde , nd everyone here is white! and what we are to you? I seemed american but im from Argentina and im white.

[rfletcher09]

@17410Manuel no ur not white ur hispanic or latina which ever one u use... its a reason why u live in LATINamerica..... look at the root word... so are u just forgetting who you are, where u come from? now if u are white and just so happenly born in Argentina then yea ur white but if ur mom and dad is Latino and from there then you are Latina. it doesnt matter what you "look" like u have latin blood in u.

[17410Manuel]

@rfletcher09 No , i dont have latin blood. I can believe how stupid u are.

Im decenden of Irish , German and Italian. Evrybody is descendent of European HERE , not is Mexico , Mexico is different Ok ,but u think that is the same suarrly.

OPEN UR MIND AND UR BRAIN PLEASE. i

[17410Manuel]

@17410Manue

italian and spanish are white too.

[rfletcher09]

@17410Manuel i just said, if u were born there but u just so happen to be white then yea ur white, but if your parents r frm argentina ur latino I know argentina isnt MEXICO theirs a reason its called ARGENTINA...u want to be white so bad but you cant even type English correctly! u speak spanish! I dont even speak Spanish! & Im Puerto Rican, Italian, and russian... ur saying Spanish people are white Im not white i may be part white....bt ok buddy whatever u say...i really dont care.

[BRAT165]

@rfletcher09 Spanish, latinos is our ethnicity but we are white, because we are talking about the color of our skin, and "the white people" that you are trying to talk about are call Caucasian, and FYI Argentinians are from European descend

[rfletcher09]

@BRAT165 so the basic thing your saying is if ur light 2 fair skin ur white & if your med 2 dark skin ur black..Im sorry to tell u, but the world isnt just black & white..open your eyes! my niece has russian, spanish & black features but shes as fair as christina... so what your telling me is when someone asks her what she is she's suppose to DENY who she is and just say she's white because she has fair skin? PLEASE..get over urself! why are u still talking, i swore i ended this convo.

[pedy19]

@BRAT165 Agree , we portugueses are part of the roll ;) Viva los latinooos! kakaka

[Cullengirl231]

@17410Manuel sweety, you're not white. The color of your hair or skin have nothing to do with it.

If your parents are argentinian, and you were born in Argentina.. Then you're hispanic

[rfletcher09]

@Cullengirl231 thank you!

[PatyG2008]

Christina was a kid when she sang this... it's so difficult to find a girl so talented like this...Amazing voice!

GREAT VERSION!

[tube4sh0wz]

She was and still is amazing as a singer.. regardless of her recent musical failures !

[dnb419]

@aquariuswahine WELL, she still sounds like a wet cat's shriek. When she sang the chorus, I had to turn it off, hurt my ears. She didn't come close to the high notes, really off. You all must not have good hearing. It really WAS NOT GOOD, just admit it.

[EvilHenchman10]

@dnb419 LOL, you soooo jealous.... This girl was obviously a fucking phenom. A white girl singing like this only comes round every 1000 yrs...

[dnb419]

She isn't close to the sultry voice of Allanah. Sad.

[aquariuswahine]

@dnb419 well shes only 11 im sure Allanah was in her 20s when she sang

[jennyflannel]

@dnb419 That's because it's a COVER. not all COVERS are supposed to sound like the original ARTIST.

[JerziDominguez]

sorry this sucks and I like Christina. smh

[MsBwine]

not the same as alannah myles but i still like christina

[sernaotenetgr]

nice voice since she was 11!!!

[mayarocksSOCKS12]

she hasnt changed a bit still going strong litteraly strong voice strong soul

[kayos60005]

174 people must not know real talent and think miley is better EWWW!! lol .. at 11 she is still better then most of the singers today

[mistadiscovery]

the world is losing any sense of true talent, everyones turning into a asshole and that includes music and movies.

[JOxSOxFINEx21x]

Lover her..

but why does she look like vincent malloy?

[nanniesparrow]

true artist! since young girl knew how to charm the audience, she was so born to make magic with her voice!! who wouldve thought that lil girl was going to someday be my idol!

[MultiMrTiny]

wow i can't believe the powerful voice is coming out of that little body.....

[valeriagaldame]

lol the legs look like 2 toothpicks !!

[katkouta78]

her voice is toooo high for this song, but she had really good voice already so young

[pplala100]

Timeless Classic!

[Dooptasticness]

Thank God she gained some weight. Here, she looks like someone who needs to be sponsored for just 30 cents a day...

[bobbifoxification]

Oh my god! What a talented little gal she was!

[andyjalc]

Love her to death, she just cant do national anthems, thats all, otherwise shes amazing

[NicoleBecker93]

@andyjalc She has done national anthems in the past and did fine. People really need to get over her mess up. Everyone messes up sometimes.

[rogerliciouz]

Where are Lady Gaga's younger version videos?

AHAHAHHAHAHA CHRISTINA THE BEST :D

[5Elsalvador]

MY GOD she was skinny.... her arms look creepy :(

[cabraibex]

I always thought it was about a freaking good-looking black guy :D Because of this "black velvet in the little boy´s smile" and such stuff. Then this hidalgo just left the town with a lot of bastard kids behind :D

[MsViper23]

hell yeahhhh....

[xxaishiteru29xx]

WOW. She doesn't look and sound like 11 in this video.

[groovegoon88]

She was born with it!

[rissa4u2]

She was 11

[Klassickk]

nothing like a 11 year old singing about whiskey

[wildhorsestudios1421]

@Klassickk The song isn't about Whiskey, it's about Elvis Presley.

[Klassickk]

@wildhorsestudios1421 it is? i remember seeing a bottle of black velvet and I always thought that's wat she was singing about lol..thx for the info

[wildhorsestudios1421]

@Klassickk Yeah it's in the video but the song is actually about Elvis.

[CrewtonRamone]

@Klassickk you goober, it's not about whiskey, it's about Elvis, painted on black velvet...maybe you aren't old enough to remember the paintings of Elvis on velvet, often accompanied by other paintings of dogs playing poker and of course semi-nude Mexican women...

[TheNicoleSinger]

to skinny

[PopMusic157]

I love you Christina you are the best ! :)

[aqtpie18]

she always did that little hand twitch. its kinda charming

[theonecritic1]

Amazing...such a talent. SUCH a talent. lol Miley, Selena, rihanna...pfffhahahhaahaa they are such jokes.

[ItsBarbiebetchh]

now this is true natural talent unlike beyonces dad paying a vocal teacher to give her vocal lessons

[lutalice]

@ItsBarbiebetchh what a silly comment! I'm not a beyonce fan, i mean i don't mind her, she's cool, but any amount of vocal training can't turn someone into a good singer when they're not. I'm just saying, just cause she had a vocal coach certainly doesn't mean she has no talent!

Anyway, back to Xtina, pretty impressive for an 11 year old, though i'd much rather listen to the original LoL

[scythiann]

ugly legz...

[Pascalounette15]

wow i tinking she was 18?o_O

[mixedtape109]

Holy crap. Why aren't today's artists talented like this? God I love her.

[AlexisMaree13]

@mixedtape109 She still is an artist of today.

[superstarstribute]

@mixedtape109

There are many just as talented. They haven't or hadn't been discovered at this early age. Thousands are still trying for that one person to find, see, hear and recognize that lost star

[kelvinpyaeko]

@mixedtape109 i know right?

[StereOasis93]

@mixedtape109 she is one of todays artists

[korencek]

@mixedtape109 but they are... even more. Just saw:

/watch?v=mJKrHCWgiFU

[Raiuval]

At only 11 years? HELL YEAH. Chris ffs!

[alekjensen]

@Raiuval was she 11 there:O

[MarnyCromwell09]

I love Christina Aguilera but for some reason I just don't like the way she does this song. I think it's cuz this is a blues song and Christina's music is pop. She's got the voice for any type of music really but I think I'm so used to her doing her music her way instead of other people's music in her style of singing that it just sounds weird to hear her do anything but her own stuff. But Christina is a true performer. Sexy, talented, and awesome.

[sandrica3579]

@MarnyCromwell09 i TOTALLY agree...i dont like the the way she does this song too,especially when she starts to sing 'black velvet' its funny to me :D.......but she definately has the voice for any type of music and i really love her and her songs...

[narutotentensasuke]

i LOVE HER!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[singingred]

Her voice has not changed...at all...She's incredible!

[xXfindthetimeXx]

The original is so much better

[mafisu]

I am imagine this song in the voice of Fiona Apple
