  • please... stop comparing christina aguilera and joss stone... they are so different, two different styles 2 different voices and 2 different chills!

  • joss stone is the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • This PROVES that xtina is untouchable to anyone she's been compared to. This was 3rd best grammy performance EVER and all she did was sing!Xtina will be one o the the people that will continue to last a life time. Of course she's known for more than just her voice...but man...it's like all it takes is her voice! Love xtina......the best!

  • did you know that patti smith absolutely loved her cover of this song?

  • unbeliveable

  • omfg her voice annoys me

  • @songbird525 Than don't watch her.

  • @LatinaA08 im not

  • @songbird525 the reason she was singing like that was in tribute to james brown and if you dont like her than why did you come on this video? just to leave a bad comment

  • @xoroxystar well her tribute sucks ass...and FYI my friend sent me this video, that's why.

  • i think james brown would be proud of her if he was still alive.

    r.i.p james brown <3

  • i idolize christina aguilera!! I would just kill to have vocal lessons from her!

  • shes awesome

  • gave me goose bumps

  • that's how james brown did it, she was doing his style !!!!

  • Look up Danny Gokey "Scream On"

    THAT is screaming.

    Belting high notes the right way is damn hard, but yes, the result isn't everyone's cup of tea. This is a James Brown tribute though, so it wouldn't be complete without it.

  • But yes, that one note is a scream. Again, a tribute to James Brown who also did that (but at a lower register).

  • Shes trying to screa more in this likee the original singer....

  • Noone is james brown, isn't it?)))

    Aguilera has a voice and the potential. Still the timpre and this fake soul technique just seems annoying to me.

  • Love her version of this song, except the high note at the end

  • is it me or dosnt she sound like she is just grumbling and screaming and saying once in a while the words "mans world""????

  • sing it girl. I love her rendition. I would love to hear Kelly Price sing this!

  • That was amazing

  • Celine Dion is soooo better!!

  • WOW ! What a combination of voice and sexy! James (my man) Brown would be proud of this cover...... James, we miss you!

  • shit she ate the song......all's ok except the high notes.....their is a vocal range that limits.....if one goes beyong it...it will be screaming, not singing....

  • That was the best performance of that show. She I the best singer of this generation!

  • that was quite a gud performance... except for this high note(1:51)that was just awful.. it really hurt my ears!!

  • there was a point to making that high pitch note...james brown would do it...;]

  • wow.....I am speechless...so glad rollingstone named her the best voice of the new generation..... :)

  • this is the performance that shows just how talented her voice is

  • VOICE!!!

  • Racist much? Get over the fact that she's white and realize that she has the best voice of her generation.

  • Wow, her voice is AMAZING.

  • @Keshira was

  • damn that girl got range...

  • i hate pop soul rnb and all that kinda shit and im not hugde fan of chirstina eather but i gotta say that SHE IS ONE HELL OF A SINGER !!!!

  • Carrie Underwood??? i dont think she is nearly as good as x-tina

  • ptdr listen when it's 1:50 ! LOL

  • she has a great voice

  • wow she got soul

  • wowowowowowo HAMMER

  • Respect of her talent..

  • i agree w recordgrooves & Ksouzey--you must never have listened to james brown or even know the first thing about him if you think this performance is better than the original song

  • This is the most amazing performance by a female artist. No one else can do that. and that made her the most powerful female performer of all time.

    See this year's grammys? No one has got to beat this blast performance. So sad no other than Christina Aguilera did the same

    high-class of a performance.

  • whoa... i love christina, but she cannt be deemed 'the most powerful female performer' of all time yet--that's a very lofty title for someone's who's been around for all of 10 or 12 yrs

    especially compared to legends like tina turner, diana ross, janet jackson, whitney houston, aretha franklin, celine dion, cher, madonna, etc.

  • It's hard to compare singers intergenerations. The older singers will already have established their position and be labelled "legends"...it's like comparing old classic novels to new novels...you can't do it. I just say that Christina is the most powerful performer of her generation :)

  • it was NOT as good as everyone keeps sayin it is

  • "better than the original"

    LMAO

    You must be one of those people that think Winowhorehouse is a good singer!

  • Its good

    But better than James Brown?

    No chance

  • she was kinda screaming but I liked it

  • really bravo Christina Aguilera , you have try hard to sing that great legend famous song; though u are far from performing it.

    at the end let me say that maybe u are great singer too , but ,it would be best to choose other songs , you can sing whatever u want except man'world because that man called james is really great , khalid from morroco

  • she can sing so good

  • SCOUSERKJAK and GSUSWALKS open up just a little. This not Christina portraying James Brown. How ridiculous would that be? Appreciate the new rendition never forgetting the classic.

  • I know it;s a whole new version, but i dont like it tough... the beginning ain;t bad but eventually she is pretty much screwin up the song without comparing it to james'version. We all know she can sing likke omg :P but why does she has to show that so much that it will lose the beaty of a song... here song beautifful was absolutely perfect this is said to say it rubbish

  • she is just amazing...

  • God Dayem!! Christina killed it yo! I will never forget that performance.

  • She rocked that joint. She really should remake the song it would song really good. She doesn't have do all that screaming but her voice went with the music.

  • cavolo io adoro christina aguilera la sua voce le sue canzoni ma proprio questa mi fa schifo !!!!a tratti la canta proprio male!!!

  • Dont come to hate me... but this version you cant even compare to james browns 1968 apollo version... I honestly must say I hate this version it seems she has to show in every song she makes she can get to every tone and keep it for a anoying long time... The Godfather of Soul screams in a decent beautifull way.. this hurts my ears!!

  • that girl got some pipes but she still cant touch JB's version...and she coulda kept that high note @ 1:51 what was that? besides that she killed it

  • Holy. Shit. That woman gave chills with this song. She truly has a gift.

    Bet Britney wishes she could sing like that.

  • to be honest this is nothing cpmapared to james brown's this is good but doesnt sound right

  • She was pulling this from the depths of her soul...I got chills when I saw this for the first time. LOL it was a good thing that they made Beyonce go before her. Don't get me wrong I love B but her grammy performance was not her best...

  • shes the QUEEN!

  • i bet she hate u too.low life

  • 01:50 01:56 WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT??? Now if someone tells me Christina has the best high notes in the world blah,blah I have a reason to punch em in the face.

  • no actually its the other way around,we have every right 2 punch yo dumb ass in da face.

  • Are you deaf???

  • I listen to old rock but this is a hell of a performance by christina!!!!!!!!!! loved it

  • I takes sheer guts to even attempt any James. I played cause I thought this would be a joke. Damn good, Christina.

  • melody is nice and rhythm

  • she is one of mine then ^^.but i like janet jackson cus she my fav.

    i dont like some ppl's voice like blick182..that lead singer guy has a squeaky small voice..the base guy's voice is cool

  • i guess i just dont like the way they sing it...most lyrics are similar. but its the way u sing it..i prefer pop, hip hop and some rock

  • lawl punk is cheap crap music all they do is do their small voices and occasionally scream. pop and hip hop is best

  • ew shit undreground ispure rubbish crap.well rap is cool. but those metal and rockers underground..omg they sux shytt

  • na its not...if this sux then what do u think is god

  • shut up loser

  • lengendary? are you serious..she just butchered the song...sure she has a great voice...but it doesn't take a great voice to make a great song..or a great cover of a song..she just butchered the real version..WTF!

  • her performance is absolutely horrible...

  • legendary - HAHAHA

  • Jamie Foxx looked lukewarm and self-conscious at the end, like "Yeah, okay", politely clapping.

    ----

    There are too reasons for that one because he really wanted that part or he was really amazed. and to answer your question she is a great singer because mostly her voice in her records she does not butcher most of her voice for example britney spears does butcher her voice in most of her videos and beyonce sounds very tired when she starts in a concert but it still extremly amazing.

  • open your eyes and look again, Jamie is saying "that's the shit right there" ;)

  • Christina has an awesome voice, she is a legend, not just anybody sings a major Jame's Brown song, she sang it and she nailed it, NO ONE CAN DO IT BETTER THAN CHRISTINA!!!!, if you don't like Christina then don't waste your time on looking at her amazing achievements!!!!!

  • I dunno if you are talking to me on that last sentence you wrote, but check my account, Im Christina's biggest fan

    he said ' that's the shit right there ' but with the word ' shit ' he didn't mean anything negative, neither do I, this is a legendary performance

  • she did a james brown screech...love it or hate it, she still own your souls!

  • i love christina!!

    i was in a concert of her!!

    she sings really good!!

    the voice...is sooooo amazing....
