  • Horrible. >:|

  • Back when she was pretty.

  • @TruthOasis She's still pretty. And she will always be pretty.

  • If this is considered oversinging, one has to hope she never stops.One things for sure When Anyone is singing,and they are feeling the words of any given song flowing through every fiber of there being and sharing it with those which are listening.The words blend with the soul,leading into the passion of what the words mean and find there home to the voice releasing the beauty of those words.,yet considering such moments of amazement.Its not possible to oversing your passion.

  • i love her voice but she oversinged this song

  • I. can't. stop. listen. to. this.

  • why give a shit , u r better than them ,x give it shit hunnie,x

  • and this "video" sucks too.

    

  • @tangoddess85 and you will remain behind your computer commenting on this video, whilst she is living her life.

  • I LOVE it!! <3 Christina!

  • she has an AMAZING voice, beyonce also has an AMAZING voice, end of.

  • Vevo sucks ass

  • but she didn't and why is that ? because SHE DIDN'T LIKE BEYONCE SINGING HER SONG !!!!!! COME ON IT IS COMMON FREAKING SENSE FOR ALL THE SIMPLETONS WHO THINK OTHERWISE

  • Christina was better enough said, I like Beyonce but she is not on the levels like Christina, Adele or Even Jennifer Hudson And so forth. She played Etta in the movie that means nothing,how would it look Christina playing Etta a little odd considering Etta is black lol . Beyonce was convenient ( and she can't act at all ). Plus Etta herself didn't even like Beyonce take on her song. Etta wanted Christina to sing at her funeral,if she wanted Beyonce to Beyonce would of sung at her funeral

  • I would love to just take her put her in a box and give her money to sing everyday.

    :]

  • @williamssheilaj I would rather pay money to get into HER box! Just saying!

  • wow! i love her voice its powerful and perfect to me <3.

  • I'm just saying Cyndi Lauper sings it better.

  • Stop saying she over sings... She has a voice and shes using it. nuff said.

  • R.I.P Etta :'(.

  • i think there is nothing wrong in over singing cuz it makes the song even better as a blues fan this is my opinion but it differs so I think this cover is really nice or maybe even better than beyonce n let me tell u im a die hard beyonce fan!

  • ahahaha the beyonce's fan realize Christina is better! hahaha

  • Beyonce is a tone-deaf hack compared to Christina. NO ONE can sing on Christina's level.

  • @Julijam08 thats because Beyonce is on a much higher level than xtina in singing,beauty, the whole nine yards!!!

  • @Beyoncefan1000 Hahahahahaha! Beyonce? WHO'S Beyonce in front of Christina? WHO??? NOTHING!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @Beyoncefan1000 Well well.............So why u really here? R U pressed that pidgeons love pooping on monuments ?

    Anybody can shit on your fave and it happens daily........welcome to youtube.

  • @Julijam08 adele is lol

  • She is awesome but cvndi Lauper does this song better.

  • 0:27 ngooooeeee HAHAHA she is great!

  • Maravillosa Christina ♥

  • Second best version after Etta's.

  • This is hysterical,pretentious rubbish.

    How anyone can enjoy this miles over the top version is beyond me.

    What an exhibitionist she is.O yay yay yay.

  • Christina > Beyonce.

  • GOD BLESS ETTA JAMES FOR MAKING MY IDOL CHRISTINA AGUILERA WHO SHE IS NOW!

  • @TheOracle1814 i coulnd't say it better that you did.! excacly !! a great voice came through an other great voice!!

  • I don't know why people are complaining that she over sings.. If I had a voice like hers, I would over sing as well. She has raw talent, no need of auto tune, or flashy light shows, and trained dancers. Xtina has the voice of our generation.

  • @PatrickLovesYouu I totally agree i'd be singing like that all the freakin' time if I had the skill. daaaaaaMN ;-)

  • Does she know she sounds fucking retarded when every other word she goes "oohoohohohohohooo yeahahahahahhhahahhahahhahaha oohohohohohoohohooooooooo"? She sounds like a fucking idiot. It is physically impossible for her to not over sing EVERY WORD of EVERY SONG she does

  • @Hotice770 SHUT UP STUPID ASSHOLE... YOU'RE THE FUCKING RETARDED & YOU'RE THE FUCKING IDIOT... If you don't like her, What the hell are you doing here watching her video??????? Only a COMPLETE Idiot like you do that... So, SHUT UP ASSHOLE.

  • we need this at the grammy's!

  • amazing voice!!!!

  • This is what some call the destruction of a great soulful song like "At Last". For a singer who has listened to Etta since she was 3,and claiming to have been inspired by soul music, its strange that Christina cannot even sing a soul song. So doing all the "Ooo Ooo Ooo" and "Yea Yea Yea" and giggling in the middle of this song makes Christina a soul singer? Hahaha. This is perfect proof that not everybody who has a huge voice can sing a soulful song, and Christina is that perfect example.

  • @bettylrt She was 16-17 when she did this, still figuring out what kind of singer she would be. You can also go watch her "Sunday kind of love" performance from when she was 11 and slam her for not doing Etta justice if it makes you feel better. Unlike you, I won't pretend to know a lot about soul music, but I think Christina does a great job with it (James Brown tribute, her B2B and Burlesque albums, etc.); Etta thought so too, you can check out the interview they did together.

  • @GregorSamsa1987 Yeah she's gonna get slammed left and right for destroying good soul music in her albums. She's not the only one. Im sure I cant sing like her but I do know soul when there is one, so she's got to stop the self-proclamations with the soul thing.

  • @bettylrt EXACTLY. I have never in my life seen someone over sing as much as she does.You will not find one song where she doesn't over sing on it in her ENTIRE career. Thats no soul. Soul isn't over singing a bunch of "oooooooohohoooohohoooo's" over and over again. Thats just straight up annoying. She sounds like a 4 year old when they make annoying noises to themselves all the time.

  • @Hotice770 Amen. Leontyne Price's teacher instilled a great adage into the soprano: "Sing from your interest, not from your principal." Just because you CAN doesn't always mean you SHOULD. I think Christina has a great voice, but I also think she abuses it too often. To me, when you can't just let a great song marinate and be what it is, allow it to guide you and not the other way around, you show your insecurity and immaturity as an artist. If you've "got it" you don't need to overcompensate.

  • Who is the piano player?

  • @mahoganyebony Ron Fair. He's been her manager since her first debut.

  • honestly im a super fan but she doesnt have the best voice of all time her voice is excellent she is under rated same with Adele she is way better than Beyonce at this and the similarities with her and Etta which makes their voices similar its raw you hear the power and its not auto tuned i love them . R>I>P ETTA the queen of Soul :P

  • *______*

  • She absolutely prefect.

    But that end bit sounded like a fart.

  • who fucking cares what way xtina sings this song she sung this beautifully no matter how many ohh yeahs she puts into this song it's still AMAZING=) I loves this version of at last & of course the original version by etta james

    Etta's music will live on forever she's a true legend & an amazing artist who made R&B/soul what it is today especially for women she will never be forgotten RIP Etta James=(

  • Best rendition of this generation...NO ONE tops that (even with a karaoke version ;) I don't care how many frills, trills, runs, scales, melismas, whatever you say Xtina put into this song, the point is simply she breathed fresh air into this song, and now people are inclined to sing it after Xtina's version (and the great Etta James' version too).... She owns this version of "At Last" - no competition (along with other Etta James' songs)..... :)

  • @mycenth22 lol you wish xtina 's version was better!! Beyonce was the one who was handpicked by eta James and her two sons to be Etta in the movie so that mess you talking about is so wack!! Beyonce owns this!!!

  • @Beyoncefan1000 Right??? Because Etta James had dementia and her sons had to take care of her estate by securing a profitable movie production. That's why Beyonce was cast....lol....You LOSE! Why would Etta James praise Christina's version of "At Last" in a face to face meeting....It's all on YouTube....Again you lose... I love Beyonce, but when all the stans came on YouTube to sniff out "At Last" covers and criticize everyone else, they end up looking a bit pathetic.

  • @mycenth22 that was not the actual reason dumbass!! The real reason was because Ettas son donte saw Beyonce on tv when she performed with tina Turner at the 2008 grammy awards and was literally blown away at her talent so he made his mother (Etta James) take notice and thats how Beyonce was chosen!!! get your damn stuff straight ok!!

  • @Beyoncefan1000 So Beyonce was not even on Etta's radar? Her son had to clue her in yet she had already known of Christina Aguilera and had already met with her and talked and sang with her for an entire day years before the movie was even a thought??? In any case, as you say, it was not actually Etta's decision, but her son's influence....You just countered your own argument dumbass!!! ANYWAYS where was Beyonce at Etta's funeral if she was such a perfect replica of Etta???

  • @mycenth22 That's right, Christina Aguilera was there and sang "At Last" there.... o_o So get your life straight!

  • @mycenth22 hahaha wow you talk to yourself?? bahahahahaahahahaha

  • @mycenth22 oh dont give me that cheap crap!!! at the end of the day It was BEYONCE who brought a new generation to Etta James music and life story and (beyonces performance of this song in the movie won her a grammy award as well!!!! Dont hate because your homegirl xtina wasnt the one chosen lol

  • @Beyoncefan1000 I really don't understand how you can maintain it was Beyonce who brought a "new generation" to Etta James' music and life story. If you include yourself in that generation that did not know of Etta James, then it is completely understandable how delusional of a stan you are. A movie is one thing, but Xtina has been performing that song for over a decade. Singing at a funeral is not "cheap crap", it is the highest honor to remember someone at their time of passing

  • @mycenth22 Im a now 23 yr old who knew about Etta James since I was 11 yrs old which was before 2008 so stop being a little cunt a accpet the fact that Beyonce outshined xtina as always lol!!!

  • @Beyoncefan1000 etta james did not like beyonces take on it... she praised xtina continuously on not only her rendition of the song, but her voice overall

  • @ernestoisnaive yep, that's right, and there's documented proof, not heresay about someone's son or manager or whoever?!?!?

  • @Beyoncefan1000 So your saying you knew about Etta James about the time this video was recorded...Seems a bit coincidental? Don't you agree? Beyonce stans always lose their cool, call people names, never face the truth, some come, some go, the other fans truly know to stay away from Beyonce stans, because they NEVER understand...now STFU!

  • @Beyoncefan1000 You stans get outshined everyday.

  • @Beyoncefan1000 I understand that you stans are incompetent of rational thought and unbiased opinion, not to mention fact. So with that, I leave you to your incessant internet trolling...

  • @mycenth22 haha well thank you because frankly my dear, we really dont GIVE A FUCK!!!!!

  • @Beyoncefan1000 Then why you here.......*files nails*

  • @Beyoncefan1000 Etta James didn't like that beyonce sang her song, she said so out of her own mouth, who was at the funeral ? christina not beyonce who played her in the movie. do you know how many grammy's Christina has ? alot lol . Etta James gave christina the praise to sing at her funeral not beyonce that is saying something.its saying alot

  • @Beyoncefan1000 okay why would they choose a white gurl to play a black women hmmmmm thats the only reason why they picked beyonce

  • @bestillwithme no thats not the reqason why they picked beyonce!!! it was Etta james sons who picked and requested that Beyonce would act as their mother and Etta enjoyed it too despite her joking about being mad at her for singing her song at the president and first lady Obama first dance!!!

  • @Beyoncefan1000 Damn you pressed

  • @Beyoncefan1000 why would etta pick some one she dont like hmmm

  • Yeah, she's cute and has a great voice, but adds too much bullshit to the song!

  • Back when she was beautiful.

  • @nirconn she is still beautiful

  • Love Etta James may she R.I.P no other will ever have what she had and that was REAL SOUL. But watching this was Painful Christina Aguilera always exaggerates and not in a good way , Way to many " Oooooh YEAHHHHHHHHH OHHHHHHHHHH YEAHHHHHHHHHHHH ahhhhhhh OHHHHHHHHH YEAHHHHHHHHH " Girl sit down

  • @24sunario1987 this is her style poor stupid! you're just a poor haters! get out! loser!

  • I miss when Christina was cute.

  • @fadedyouthtube she is still cute

  • I don't agree that she has the best voice of ALL time. Because of the WHITNEYS, MARIAHS, ARETHAS, ETTAS etc all of those who INFLUENCED her. But she does have the best voice of our generation.

  • this is the christina i love to remember

  • 1998 1999

  • Rest in peace, Etta.... You gave us all quite the Good Feeling...

  • R.I.P ETTA

  • OMG she's great and perfect

  • Etta James just passed away. This version made her justice.

  • RIP ETTA JAMES :'(

  • Xtina a los 15 años,cantaba excelente!

  • PERFECT!

    I wonder how is possible this kind of voice from this kind of small body, she could move mountains with this voice ;))!

  • very good voice... but i wonder, why do i feel that she is so stupidly MEAN & bitchy in real life!!!!!

  • beyonce, go away. this is THE voice, you're just product.

  • @kal1m3ro Yeah, agreed. Christina can sing a lot better than many blacks when it comes to blues/soul/jazzy type of music.

  • Daaaaaamn giiirl! <3

  • Christina has the best voice of our time? No, Christina Aguilera has the best voice of ALL time! Like if you agree.

  • Great. Thanks.

  • Comment removed

  • her voice is so light and pure...best voice of our generation!!

  • I like how she got a whole room full of people to shut up just by singing, awesome.

  • wtf with that end! lol

  • i like more with cyndi lauper!

  • @thefirstpumpkin

    Cyndi lauper's was pretty exquisit, I wish there was more than just the redundant piano background though. Still very good because I ever heard Cyndi Lauper sing that way.

  • @iwatcher69 yeah i know, in that song She changed the way i always see her, 'cause I always saw her like a regular singer. but since now i'll see her like a really great singer. sorry for my bad grammar

  • "REALSINGER" dot com

  • wowzers! i reeeeeeeeaally wish i could sing like that!!

  • ¡ Oh Man ! ... What A Beautiful Voice ... Christina Looks So Cute, I Love Her ... ♥♥ ...

  • I love it but I just want to hear ONE of her songs without all the riffs

  • We had her in our limo and she sang to my mom while she was riding in it. And the acoustics suck in limos, but she sounded just like this. Just amazing.

  • So suck a black white girl ;)

  • Cyndi Lauper does the best version next to the original. Amazing vocal and understated.

  • Sounds amazing, I like this and the other way she sang it.

  • She has an incredible voice...amazing

  • I love Christina's voice, but I think Beyonce's version was much better.

    It should be about feeling the lyrics and the meaning of the song, rather than showing off.

    Beyonce had a lot more soul and a lot more humility, which I think suits the song a lot better than this version.

  • i love her voice n she loves a long finish lol :P

  • Beyonce's version was waaaaaaaaaaay more passionate,soulful,and she has much voice control than xtina!!!!!! and of course, she actually played ETTA JAMES LOL you xtina fans can choke on a hot blade!!!

  • @Beyoncefan1000 and yet still your are here listening to it , why didn't you go listen to beyawne version , it is very funny that on every xtina video i see you leave a comment , she was just 17 her voice was still developing , and i can bet if she sings it now she will sound a lot better , there are lot of etta james song that beyawnce couldn't sing because of her type of voice which is contemporary r&b , xtina is a white girl , beyonce and etta are black, bey got the role

  • @MsTreysongz1 lmfao you trey songz fan but you have a xtina picture on ur page?? wow the type of stuff that make you go hmmmmmm...

  • @Beyoncefan1000 what the fuck does that has to do with this stick to the fucking topic , what is wrong with liking trey song and christina both at the same time ,you are just so sad u can't find any thing to say cuz u know I'm right so u find a problem and that just make you look plain stupid ,a lot of people ave a username of some thing they like but have other things on their channel that they also like if you look in the about me you will see i say like both , come again plz

  • @MsTreysongz1 just did now what lmfao!!!

  • @Beyoncefan1000 lol you are try to get on my nerves but it is not working , but them agian you don't mean no harm , have a blessed day

  • @MsTreysongz1 no i dont meanno harm but I meant what i said!!!

  • @Beyoncefan1000

    Lol, you're wrong, beside it's just your opinion and is worth nothing. I have a video, that I made, of 2 young girls that blast poor old BeyAllAboutMe right out of the water.

    Beyonce is so embarrassingly OVER DRAMATIC.. She old and acts like she's 15.

    I can't take her over hyped average voice.

  • @Beyoncefan1000 Your fave sang this like an alley cat in heat...............just her husbands sex partner rihanna.

    jayz can sang better when larry johnson's is humpin up in Jayz ass.

  • @BeyonceLawSuit dont make an ass out of yourself again ok lol

  • 37 personas no saben de musica

    

  • 2:45 ;D

  • Вот бы там оказаться, это запись из личного архива?

  • so much better than beyoncé

  • i like her but too much of the hand moving about going on there, it irritated me a little bit

  • @brogybrogyn ...

    

  • i enjoy christina and im not trying to offend anyone but she does a little to much of the unnecessary "oh Yeah"'s

  • Comment removed

  • i agree with the beyonce comment. Bey definitely has the better voice for the etta james song.

  • I think I miss her at the beginning. I hope Christina Aguilera never loses sight of how much fun she was having when she started out :-)

  • oh oh yeah oh yeah yeah oh yeah mm

  • Luv u xtina so excited for ur next album! i luv everythign but i kown this new one will be ur best! And wow xtina had so much soul at that young age.

  • Whose beyonce..? ;D

  • @BriannaShow101 I aint sure who u talkin bout BUT LOVE XTINA & ETTA JAMES!!!!

  • @BeyonceLawSuit I think Beyoncefan1000 is just upset because they picked christina to sing at her funeral. I mean why not. christina does put more emotion into the song.

  • @guitarbabe21 and she's been singing it forever! lol it'd would have been dumb to have Beyonce just cause she portrayed her in a movie and sang it at Obama's inauguration

  • this was back when she was at her best, imagine this voice with a good techinque
