Jun 20 2006Christina Aguilera "Ain't No Other Man" music video

Why won't any of these pop stars let me direct their music videos? Sure they might complain about the nude pillowfight scene at first, but they'll thank me later when they win the Academy Award for best scene ever captured on film.

NOTE: Yeah, they'll actually create a new category for the Oscars just to accomodate how awesome my music video would be.

Personally, I'm sick of Christina Aguilera. Her and her damn gumby legs.

It's a terrible song....total waste of time

How noir. Wot's with "X's" retro fetish? Totally ridiculous, because trailer parks weren't even invented yet.

umm, christina should get over herself and this whole 50's obsession of hers. I kinda like the song though, its catchy.

all these Aguilera videos are self-indulgent poo

and why is this news? we dont get a posting every single time somebody makes a new video?? although, everyone should check out Lily Allen's video for Smile, its brilliant!

whatever happened to baby jane?
what a bunch of overproduced garbage.

BOO that sucked

SHE F*CKIN SUCKS SO BAD, HER VOICE IS WORSE THAN FINGERNAILS ON A CHAULK BOARD ESPECIALLY WHEN SHE DOES THAT UH-E-UH-E-UH-E CRAP, MAKES ME WANNA RIP OUT HER THROAT WITH MY BARE HANDS LIKE ON ROADHOUSE. I WISH WE COULD SEND HER BACK TO THE 40'S SINCE SHE WANTS TO BE FRIGGIN MARILYN MONROE OR SOMETHING, THAT WAY SHE'D BE DEAD OR PRETTY CLOSE BY NOW....

It's 2006, why am I looking at trombones? Who the fuck came up with this travesty, the same guy who brought us Michael Jackson's Smooth Criminal? I understand an artist going back for influences, but the frigging '20's?? With Britney supersized, Mandy and Jessica focusing on movies, and Ashlee no competition to anyone, THIS is what Christina drops on us? She has absolutely no one standing in her way from the vaunted crown of sole pop princess superstar, and she regurgitates this two-flusher?? As an aside, upon seeing Ms. Bratman's latest video Britney promptly descended into a quivering mass of cheeto-dusted, tear-stained hick fuck once more.

I wish she would just shut up and make a porno for me.

#6 -- I agree. Hell, if this is the place to promote artists' videos, then you should check out this one. It's so hip and cool and awesome and rad and not gay at all:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F2_5KOnSsfI

1. Why do i feel like I've already seen this? Beyonce's Baby Boy with Usher? It's not bad in and of itself, but totally unoriginal.

2. I love how she keeps all her backup dancers brunette and masculine looking so she stands out in comparison.

3. I like the song but she totally could have kicked this up a notch. Pop is in the toilet at the moment (as of the last 2 years). Talk about wasting a golden opportunity.

ahahahaha @12 that just totally made my whole day! That video always makes me laugh, because of its non-gayness of course.

WTF number 12. . .

I was JUST watching this video for the first time with my friend the other day. I'd forgotten how gay the Village people really were.

ps. maybe the video X-tina (what a gay name) reminds me of is Usher's Caught Up... or maybe Chris Brown's Gimme That. Seriously, I'm kind of Over them all using the same director, set, and backup band, and makeup artists.


I think the song's hot, and the video fits. Yeah its a little bizzare that she thinks its the 20's or 40's (not the 30's cause you know the great depression is so last season)

but the girl can sing, and it's better than anything Jessica or Britney ever did

Meh, she's alright I guess, but she's no Connie Chung! Take a look:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vLY3dz97jyM

I'm not a fan of superpop vocals, but I like the music in this song. Christina's hella hot too.

Hey, #9, sweetie, Marilyn was popular in the 50s. But you totally put her in her place, for sure. So brilliant. Any other incorrect pop culture references you'd care to make today? Also, what's 'chaulk'? Is that like a combination of chalk and caulk? Lastly, your caps lock key is located on the left-hand side of your keyboard. Thanks a bunch. Much love!

I like it. the reaons, by the way, you are seing trombones is because they are on the backing track. try to synch up your audio and video sometime and have a listen. Duh.

#20 - No shit moron. The comment about trombones was that they had their time in the '20's and Big Band era, we don't need them back. And before you go off on how they are necessary for Xtina to do her retro thing, reread the second sentence.

The best part of this video was the big sign that said "ARLEM", which I assume stands for Harlem in New York City, and not Haarlem in the Netherlands. I guess it's vital to the concept of the video that people know it takes place in Harlem and not Chicago or St. Louis.

I like the idea that there are these big lighted signs all over New York that tell you what neighborhood you're in. Like if you go to East Flatbush there are billboards that say "EAST FLATBUSH". Xtina should do a series of music videos around this concept.

Why does she always have to flirt/make-out with the camera?She may have guy fans that think she is hot, but most of them probably hate her music and are not going to pay for any X-tina merchandise (except maybe posters), so she needs to give it a rest already! She has a good natural voice, but she is always too over the top and it totally turns me off. Plus, I like music that I can actually sing along to and not Olympic, hitting-notes-that-only-dogs-can-here singing.

here/hear - whoops!

We need trombones for marching bands, damnit! Where would those nerds be without trombones? Trombone players everywhere are jumping off cliffs like lemmings!

#23 I agree. I find it ironic that she's singing "Ain't no other man" yet she's posing in lingerie and shaking her ass for the world (and all of its pervs included) to see. Her hubby's gotta luv that.

#21. Thanks for the update. the 20s you say? gee that was a long time ago - shall we do away with all the instruments 'invented' or used way back then' (By the way the big band era was in the 40s, but let let that go for the moment)?

BTW the reason this vid is 'important' is that this is the 1rst release ... uh ... musical release she's had in four years, apart from the stuff she did with the likes of Herbie Hancock, who apparently also uses trombones in some of his music and should be discounted.

#20 try to pull your musical head out of your ass and open your ears to stuff beyond what people cram down your ears - there is plenty of wonderful music being made in all styles with all sorts of 'ancient instruments'. Seriously. Your comment paints you as a very very ignorant person. happily, there is a cure. open your mind, and your ears.

take two:

#2*1* try to pull your musical head out of your ass and open your ears to stuff beyond what people cram down your ears - there is plenty of wonderful music being made in all styles with all sorts of 'ancient instruments'. Seriously. Your comment paints you as a very very ignorant person. happily, there is a cure. open your mind, and your ears.

Drums have been around for way longer than the trombone. Should we throw them out, too? I'll just beat on something that's been invented recently - like Ashley Simpson's nose or Aguilera's boobs.

Damn, Firt of all trombones are one of the best funk instruments out there, Check out Fred Wesley and if you can't respect that then you stink.

Second of all did anyone who didn't like this ever like any X-tina songs ever before? She is a pop star. Thats it. They are there to make pop music music that is cheesy and will not be lasting most of the time.

Third I think it is a pretty catchy song.

I know were here to make fun of people but seriously you all need some more wit.

FIRST of all
sorry

she shoulda stuck one of the trombones up her hooj.

Her husband is ugly. I wonder what she sees in him. He seems like a huge dork. He could do better than her, though. She is a hoochie.

@27 Maybe YOU should gently remove your head out of Xtina's ass. Then, while you are washing your mouth to remove the taste of her poo(optional); ponder the fact that HER brand of pop is the manure of the music the world that's being rammed down people's throat via payola and the control exerted by the radio station conglomerates and record companies.

*manure of the music world*


My bad grammar doesn't change the fact that you like Aguilera's poo.

good day to you.

#27 - I love how you people call anyone who doesn't like a particular brand of music "close-minded". Are you so far left that you cannot conceive of a thing called personal taste... or freedom of choice? I am sure you love every form of musical expression out there, that there is not one single note someone has composed in which you do not find merit. I, for one, do not want to hear trombones, or Jew's harps, or accordians, or bagpipes in my pop music. You're entitled to your views, just don't act superior because you love everything - certainly not that new single.

#22 In order to keep with the "ARLEM" sign, East Flatbush would have to read

"EA T F ATBUSH"

You know, I thought the trombones were a nice touch. And this video was much better than most of the crap that's been put out lately (Mariah needs to realize she's been dead for a while and go dig herself a hole and all of those so called R&B singers that instead just whine and whore themselves up in their vidoes are not real talents) Christina has a nice voice...better than Britney or Ashley, and this is a step up from her Dirrty days. I think it's a good video. And anyone who feels like bashing any of my opinions rudely...I don't care. :D

zzzzzzzz

@38 Nobody's going is going to "bash" any of your opinions Jordan. Your post was well thought out and articulate, let's give'im a hand folks******


However your opinion doesn't change the scientifically proven fact that Xtina is a dirty little midget that really overplays and overfunkifies(word?) anything she sings.

UH-E-UH-E-UH-E ad-nauseum.

that shit needs to stop, and that goes for all these "R&B" people STOP IT already.

@6 - yes! Lily Allen ROCKS!!

You can listen to SMILE on her MySpace page:
http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=36707169
or at: http://www.lilyallenmusic.com/
The video of "Smile" is AWESOME!

Ah for fuck's sake, "Video no longer available."

So, I couldn't actually watch the video, because the skank realized someone was violating her copyright. Nonetheless, I can say with certainty that the video was about as valuable as a warm bucket of hamster vomit. Keep in mind, that's only if the video was her best yet.

As for the song, the vocal track isn't actually all that horrible. However, the music doesn't match it well. Perhaps she'll come out with a remix that puts the vocals to a modern dance beat, and it will stop sucking ass so much.

Until then, this song is still a big ol' pile of poo.


.... I'd still fuck her though;)...


....if I wanted my dick to fall off!!!

The video is "no longer available" and I'm actually glad. I always hated her "voice lesson" style. Too many pop stars seem to think that is the right way to sing and it just sounds shitty...

Me??? I'm down with the messakins and that accordian and tuba stuff they crank out .. now that takes talent!!

Why post this video in the first place anyway?
It's pretty obvious that such a violation of copyright won't stay undetected for long.

Besides, I would d...ate her.

She's worlds better than Shitney and her inability to sing live. Christina may oversing, but at least she sings. I'll take that over some miming half-wit anyday. And yes, I've seen them both in concert, so I have some personal perspective on that.

And why are we bashing her choice of husband? Did it ever occur to some of you that she married him because he loves her and treats her well? Maybe she didn't want to marry some Hollywood hottie just to end up divorced in 2 years. I give her kudoes for bucking the trend and marrying someone dare I say, normal.

And yeah, her music isn't everyone's cup of tea, but it's a lot better than most of the crap out there right now.

PLEASE VISIT MY WEBSITE ^^^^^

i still think shes sexy

@36 - Keep fighting the good fight, sir! Superior people love everything! Indeed!

45
I love that the tuba line is the same in all the songs--

BUM-bum, BUM-bum, BUM-bum, BUH-buh-buh-buh-

BUM-bum, BUM-bum,...

I'd give anybody here's left ball or right lab to nail Xtina's wonderfully skank'd-out lil nutbucket.

Just sayin' ...

#47..ditto.

Granted, her husband is kind of ugly, but at least it shows she's not that shallow. She found someone who cherishes her and makes her happy. Oh, and she actually got to know the guy and let him propose to her. Nothing wrong with that.

She tried to look like Marilyn Monroe, but comes off looking more like HATCHET FACE from that movie Cry-baby.

that rat can yell really loud... looks like it got into some paint too.

Thank you! FINALLY somebody who is putting something out that sounds DIFFERENT and unique.

I applaud her b/c she can actually sing BEAUTIFULLY without all the studio tricks.

I wonder if the video is no longer available because they realized there's a 1-second delay between the audio and video in some segments? We watched it last night on MTV and were mesmerized by the shitty editing.

Oh God, when is she going to realize her "salad days" have come and gone? She is not attractive at all. I don't want to read any more posts about how we would get hardons if we saw her in person. The girl is fugly. She does look like Hatchet Face from Crybaby. I am sick of her and Shitney Spears.

that's pure unadulterated SHIT

I think this song is great and the video is great she is showin and era when people were much more classy and respectable something most of u on this site wouldnt understand.

The video is "no longer available" here, but her performance of this song Live on the 2006 VMA's was fucking brilliant! A lot of comments on here trash her, but I think she is great. She is head and shoulders above any of the other big name female singers out there. I am more of a jam band fan, but I have to give her credit for being awesome. I like her looks, her dancing, her singing and her ability to pull it all together with a song like this and just flat out ring the bell!! It would be great if more performers would take a few pages from her book regarding live performance. When she hosted Saturday Night Live, the cast goofed on whether she needed to "whore it up" or not to be appealing. Well, my $.02 is that she doesn't need to whore it up, but I'm glad she does. I agree with one of the comments here that said something like "Who cares. This is just another music video." But the live VMA performance of this was outstanding! check it out --they are re-playing it as a video on MTV. Peace out.

For God's sake: STOP HATIN!

I cannot stand people whinging about how "oh god she's wearing lingerie in the video - what a total prostitute!" Find me one seriously big female artist who hasn't done that once or twice in a video/performance. Funnily enough, she's the one with all the money, not you, so she's gotta be doing something right.

Even worse though is this whole "God what era does she think she's in?" crap you keep spouting. She's found an era of music she likes and that she's letting influence her music. Are you complaining bout the heavy 60s/80s 'New Romantics' presence there is in a lot of the Indie Rock scene? No, you're not.

Leave the poor woman alone. She's making the music she wants to make, and she's got every right to. It's not taking away from your life and if it is it's your own fault for being so damn dramatic.

I don't know... she's talented but not original. everything she does is a big rip off of much better singers like Etta James and Arethra Franklin. even the name of this song sounds like a rip off of some other song, u kno the one that goes like: "ain't no body /loves me better / makes me happy / makes me feel this way" sort of gimmicky. not a fan of the porn-star chic look either...

it's definetly gutsy, but got to give it to the girl for knowing what she wants and going for it. she's got the balls, the voice, and the talent to back it too. unlike other artists out there, she actually put out a well thought out piece of work that not only references but respects styles of our musical history. she intellectually fuses different genres of music to create a new sound all of her own. she is hands down, one of the best vocal talents in the industry today. i applaud her for going against the grain and being the individual she is. she is an artist, she has a vision, and she should express that in any way she feels. this was all well executed during her live performance on the mtv movie awards show. her presence, confidence, and skill was undeniable.

and for all the haters out there,
just because you don't like her or her music for whatever reason doesn't mean that it's bad.... i don't particularly like country music for example, but i know that it's not all that bad especially for the people that like it. i can appreciate that. that is obviously a genre of music that needs just as much talent as any other and deserves just as much respenct as any other. we should all be so lucky to be blessed with the talents these artists possess.

uhhh....who really fucking cares?? if you like the song, listen to it. if you don't, don't listen to it. simple. *shrug*

PLEASE DONT READ THIS!!!!U WILL GET KISSED ON THE NEAREST POSSIBLE FRIDAY BY THE LOVE OF UR LIFE. 2MORROW WILL BE THE BEST DAY OF UR LIFE.HOWEVER IF U DONT POST THIS COMMENT TO ATLEAST 3 VIDEOS U WILL DIE IN 2 DAYS.NOW UV STARTED READIN THIS SO DONT STOP NOW!THIS IS SOOO SCARY.SEND THIS TO ATLEAST 5 VIDEOS IN 143 MINUTES WHEN UR DONE PRESS F6 AND UR CRUSSHES NAMEWILL APPEAR ON THE SCREEN IN BIG LETTERS THIS IS SOO SCARY CUZ IT ACTUALLY WORKS!!!!!
