she's managed to COPY every single one of mariahs licked. christina will do that vision of love breakdown like its her own. its ok to be influenced, but this chick takes everything mariahs done. hand movements to riffs to runs, etc. then she wonders why mariah doesnt like her.
Honestly, I don't think that Christina would claim Etta to be her BIGGEST influence if she had not had that fall-out w/ Mariah those years back... Anyone get where I'm going w/ this? lol
Now I'm not saying that they aren't both behaving like a pair of catty bitches and need to get over all the fighting. We all know almost all of Christina's musical style came from Mariah and I'm sure every time Christina drops a song Mariah pays close attention because whether she admits it or not, Christina is a very talented girl. It's a shame because I always wanted to hear what they would produce in a duet.
Christina's musical style and sensibility came from a variety of sources, not just Mariah. Christina has a good deal of Whitney and Etta James and a touch of Madonna here and there. Mariah whistles more than she belts, Christina belts FAR more than she whistles (in fact Christina was just playing around and then people caught on that she was whistling and went crazy over her high notes while she actually sounds better lower, thanks Mariah).
Christina's whistle register is very untrained and most of her notes in the extension are hit in the same fashion - by ascending the scale without any varied skill or technique. When it comes to belting, her best notes are below E5, after which she strains. Mariah can go up to A5 by belting with clear enunciation whereas Christina has yet to hit a clear G#5 (other than the single exclamation that she did in the studio) and she has never reproduced it live (neither any of her whistles above A6).
Plus, although she was influenced by Etta, Mariah, Whitney and Madonna, Madonna is the only one whose style she sticks true to. She makes a mess of Whitney, Mariah and Etta's musical and vocal style.
Thank you for posting this. It's strange that Mariah has been removed from her list of influences on almost every site (from wikipedia to several of her fansites) since they started feuding. Just because they hate each other doesn't mean that they can't respect each other as artists. We all know that Christina has swagger jacked Mariah's style/music on every album she released since then yet her team (and her fans) act as if she never liked the woman. Can't erase the past people!
i bet xtina regreting idoling gran mariah.after she found out how bitch mariah s toward more talented and prettier, nd younger. poor girl.mariah go 2 helllllllllll
Thank you! :) Ugh, these stupid people are giviing you thumbs down. :( I like Christina too, that's why I watched, but I like Mariah more! :) They're both VERY talented! "D
I think this was before the strip tease thing - I'm a huge Mariah fan lol, Christina is an amazing singer but nothing compares to the queen - MC, sorry gues but its fact!!! lol
A DMX and Christina Aguilera collabo would never work, two completely different styles. But a eve/xtina and jay-z/xtina collabo could be dope

They are a lot alike. Melisma, similar tone in falsetto, musical themes and the list goes on.

I think Christina has such a great voice, from when she was a child she had that grown-up voice. Kinda.
But in the interviews I never hear something special, something unique about her... She just says THANK YOU (money)
thats what i get out of it after a couple of interviews...
