Christina Aguilera's Just Sing it! Hurt

Christina Aguilera's Just Sing it! Hurt

Project Overview

Hello my name is UzzuNoAkuma and I'm bring around a Just Sing It! this time with Christina's song, Hurt. Recently I've been listening to many covers of this song and I've been quite unsatisfied with the results, with all due respect of course, I wish to extend my search to the very talent people of the CCC community, many of you have participated in my past projects and I hope that with the passing week I get to hear your guys' very talented voices. 

A little reminder, this project and all my future projects will always be done for fun and entertainment, I do not offer prizes, compensation or some sort of endgame reward. So with that said I hope all of you have some fun doing this little project of mine. If you have any questions feel free to contact me through PM's and ask me anything you like :3 I'll usually answer within a few minutes or a few hours depending on what situation I'm in. Anywho, good luck and have fun, I look forward to listening all you guys :D

Vocal Positives:
A nimble voice that is capable of singing complex melisma. She has the ability to hold notes for extended periods of time, live and in studio. Her voice can transcend through multiple genres, such as Jazz, Blues, Rock, R&B, Pop, Hip-Hop, and Gospel. The lower register is smooth and velvety down to C#3, and is reached with ease. The mid-range can be soft or weighty, and is where the voice is it's sturdiest. Notes sung with a more open throat (mainly those in a studio setting) are more powerful and resonant. The head voice can be bright and piercing or thick and airy.

Vocal Negatives:
Criticisms have been leveled at Christina's technique, thus giving her name "The Noise." Notes as "low" as A4, and consistently around C5, become very forced, throaty, and coarse; which indicates bad placement of the larynx (though some fans find this edge to be a positive feature). Her unsteady movement of the larynx also causes her to have a deeper tone that what she would naturally have if she held a neutral larynx. Her whistle notes are actually rarely whistles, and are most often a bright falsetto. This could be an artistic decision, though it might also be one of poor technique.

Her longer notes are usually warbled; the notes are re-articulated dozens of times, which shows that she is not comfortable holding the note. Higher notes are not hit head on when they're not mixed, rather they are glossed until the note is reached. Her vocal runs occasionally sound labored, and have been criticized for lacking musicality. The lowest notes occasionally lose clarity.

Bb2 - C#7

  • Seems like it was yesterday when I saw your faceYou told me how proud you were, but I walked awayIf only I knew what I know todayOoh, ooh
    I would hold you in my armsI would take the pain awayThank you for all you've doneForgive all your mistakesThere's nothing I wouldn't doTo hear your voice againSometimes I wanna call youBut I know you won't be there
    Ohh I'm sorry for blaming youFor everything I just couldn't doAnd I've hurt myself by hurting you
    Some days I feel broke inside but I won't admitSometimes I just wanna hide 'cause it's you I missAnd it's so hard to say goodbyeWhen it comes to this
    Would you tell me I was wrong?Would you help understand?Are you looking down upon me?Are you proud of who I am?
    There's nothing I wouldn't doTo have just one more chanceTo look into your eyesAnd see you looking back
    Ohh I'm sorry for blaming youFor everything I just couldn't doAnd I've hurt myself, ohh
    If I had just one more dayI would tell you how much that I've missed youSince you've been awayOoh, it's dangerousIt's so out of lineTo try and turn back time
    I'm sorry for blaming youFor everything I just couldn't doAnd I've hurt myself by hurting you
