    Her vanity and ego cripple this entire effort. Too many references to her vagina and too many demands for listeners to chant her name. Too decent - but similar ballads - can't save this. And distorting or filtering her magnificent voice is like adding flat ginger ale to expensive wine.

    I really found the style confusing and unfocused. It's not original, feels copied from artist like Lady Gaga, Madonna, Rihanna.

    The album is great ... Vanity is amazing, Woohoo made me wanna dance, the ballads prove she's a voice that matters ... music critics are not paying enough attention this time ... her work is outstanding.

    Christina Aguilera goes from retro Baby Jane to futuristic Madame X in her fourth full-length studio album. The album's inspiration resonates from her pregnancy and life and feeling like a full-accomplished superhuman character, much like a Bionic woman.

    The album is filled with different types of electronic songs and eventually transitions into songs of full-emotion and vulnerability.    Christina Aguilera goes from retro Baby Jane to futuristic Madame X in her fourth full-length studio album. The album's inspiration resonates from her pregnancy and life and feeling like a full-accomplished superhuman character, much like a Bionic woman.

    The album is filled with different types of electronic songs and eventually transitions into songs of full-emotion and vulnerability. The album ranges from different types of songs and clearly proves that Christina Aguilera can do pretty much anything.

    My favourite songs are Desnudate, Prima Donna, Sex For Breakfast, Lift Me Up, I Am (Stripped), Vanity, Birds of Prey, and Stronger Than Ever. The only song that I don't favor so much would be Elastic Love, as it strikes rather boring to me, but I do like it's electronic elements. All the ballads are wonderful and it's nice to see all this wonderful dance music from Christina.

    I give this album a 10 - don't listen to the mainstream critics, it is a great record. I honestly enjoyed it much more than Back to Basics.    … Expand

    One of the most underrated pop album of all time.Three words enough the describe whole album: generic,different and sexy. It's the dark side of Christina and her sex mentality.

    This is one of the best albums in the music industry, yet people underrated it. The songs are diverse n fresh. Most of the lyrics are meaningful. IDK but people now really judge the book by its cover not by its contents.

    yeah all of this fridge's fans are only rating it a 10 to bring up the score. any person with a functioning brain and a normal set of chromosomes can comprehend that this is possibly the worst album ever.

    Ahead of it's time. If this album was released today, It would be a hit! Too sad it was released on wrong timings.

    Bionic is xtina's best album along with back to basics. The production of each track is spectacular, highlighting the 'elastic love' and the title track itself.

    As convincing as she attempts to sound, Bionic does nothing to persuade authenticity.

    Because she's bold enough to do it her way, Aguilera maintains her reign.

    Sure, her voice remains full, brash, and loud. But ultimately, so much of what passes for hedonism on Bionic feels synthetic and compulsory.
