A musical genius! this girl can sing her a-- off! i love when she giggles she is taken herself in ! thats all right christina you are taken me in too!
She butchers this classic song. She really over does it with the vibrado and is shrill. The classic is smooth like the way Etta does it. This hack needs to stay away from this song just like that other hack Beyonce. Leave this song to the grown ups. The only other version of this classic I've ever liked is Eva Cassidy's version with just her guitar. Etta's classic and Eva's cover with the guitar only are great. This girl needs to learn to sing.
Because they are stupid. I like her version very much. Christina is better than Beyonce. Sorry if I said Beyonce was better. I didn't mean it. Go Christina! The only problem is just that one note she held a little too long, in my opinion.

Unless you can defend your point/know anything about music SHUT THE FUCK UP. She's trying so hard to show her skills that she sounds as fucking stupid as you do defending her.
i strongly agree..she can sing her ass off...but she doesnt do that anymore...she actually takes the time to sing the song and make soung good...basically she's grown up a lot since this performance
get it through YOUR THiNK MiNDED HEADS. ETTA JAMES iS HER iNSPiRATiON ! she is not copying etta james and she is just singing her heart out. WE LOVE YOU CHRiSTiNA ! how is she ignorant as some of you say ?
jeeeeeeez leave her alone. This is her own interpretation, shes not trying to be etta james not ella fitzgerald, shes singing a cover that is her own interpretation. If you dont like it dont listen to it but it you come into these comment responses dissing her then expect to get rorted because quite obviously the majority of the comments will be from adoring fans. She is talented. id like to see you do better. Her ornamental vocals are almost equivalent to a drum solo.if youve got it flaunt it.
Christina Aguilera Is Amazing...can't believe anyone would EVER disagree....if you do then hey your opinion....Just don't watch her videos and comment stuff about her being shit....talk about a waste of time...

Shes so fucking ignorant. She did over do it she over does EVERYTHING and ain't no motherfucking body about to argue with me on that shit she is always screamin and do that aAAHAahaAHa ohhOHOHohohOHOH shit. She pisses me the fuck off my god bitch you can sing but shut the fuck up its sooo god damn annoying
lets got one thing clear. SHE IS OBLVIOUSY NOT ETTA JAMES SO SHE AINT GONNA SOUND LIKE HER. she makes the song her own if you dont like it then DONT FKIN WATCH IT THEN YOU MORON!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
lmfao u made me laugh!!! lmao ur rite she does over do it all the time and that aHHAahhahaa shit is annoying!!!! But she can sure sing thats not somethin 2 argue about... u still made me laugh tho! lmfao
I totally agree, she way over did the song. If you ever hear Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, Etta James, Sarah Vaughan, they sing the song the way it should be. I understand that you don't want to copy the others but you have to respect the version and sing it the way it is supposed to be. All that other stuff Christina did was almost butchering the song. Christina is talented enough for her not to do those over top and unnecessary voice overs.
The beauty of At Last is the song gracefulness and simplicity. Etta James' version is the most well known and THE STANDARD. I understand you have to make the song of your own but Christine's version seems forceful and lacking beautiful smooth tone.
ok, i gotta say i ADORE christina, defintly the best singer of our generation... buyt at last is a classic. i mean, if ur a christina fan and u hear at last, ur gonna be like whats the big deal? but... she did over do it a bit,\.
overdo it? it's never enough...I mean if you got it flaunt it which she clearly does this is a single live version and it's definitely recording quality
Is it just me or does she always seem to try to overdo every song she sings? I really thinks she's trying too hard! Sorry Christina, but Etta James sings this song way better than you!

I love Christina, but I fear she relies on the "vocal gymnastics" a bit too much sometimes, but not as bad as Mariah. If you want to listen to a perfectly sung song, look up Christina's "Hurt". Perfect...
she AND her voice are very beautiful, much better than all these other pop stars who think "singing" is about looking pretty and showing off their dancing skills. so...why the comparison with Britney Spears? We all know who will win! (i'll give u a hint; her last name is Aguilera!)
IDIOTS!!!! she's surrounded my fans!!! do you think she's going to do a soft, soothing song?! of COURSE NOT!! of freaking course she wants to overdo it and show off ... people don't come to see her sing something soft and normal. She took the classic song which, i enjoy, and made it her own, this isn't some background music, it's just a show of her talent!!!! She doesn't want to disappoint her fans.
icommentppl by far has the must truthful comment posted here. mgthale too! Chistina ROCKS! admit ppl, she is waaaaaaaaaay better than britney! and fyi, i LOVE it when she "over does" it!
that ain't fair! damn! she can sing and dance and she looks awesome and she got much money and... what about us mortal people! :D:D anyway I love her and she's defenetly better that brit. you just can't compare!
This was when she first came onto the scene. She did a lot of runs back then...The song is supposed to be soothing and sweet but it's like over done. I'm a huge fan of hers but this song was killed.
bad. She needs to cool it a little and it would have been better. She did it everytime back in the day, but i think she knows how to tone it down and not show off.
Completely ruins a great song with extremely over indulgent and irrelevant vocal antics, as if the song was of no consequence to the performance. Almost anyone singing it is better than this. Not in Eva Cassidy's class.
There are only two people who can do this song and make taers come to my eyes and that is the original Etta James and Christina Aguilera. So for all you ahetrs out ther bite me because Christina is the shit so take abig whiff.
This song is one of my favourites of all time, and Christina sings beautifully. My only complaint is that she's wailing to much. I mean, it sounds a bit overdone.
@DenMillen
Of course it's all a matter of opinion,yet you think people shouldn't comment unless they have
a positive opinion on this atrocious performance.If everyone thought that way then no singer would ever be criticised.What ever happened to democracy?
