Beautiful - Christina Aguilera

Doesn't matter how much she will scream, this song was plain something else when it came out. The entirety of its lyrics alone have been recognized by her peers as something inspiring, and well, check out how many awards to this song has won due to its inspiration.

I dare Jackie Evancho or ANY other singer out there today to sing the bridge of the song like Christina did.M
Why isn't this the top song. Christina's vocals on this song are beyond amazing and the song is nothing less than an anthem. It conveys one of the most powerful messages a piece of music could possibly convey and definitely deserves the top spot. Why is Jackie Evancho in every single slot? She is in no way close to ever singing a song as beautifully as Christina did.M
This song is pretty good, and I have listened to it many times. Whenever I hear it, I know that it is Christina Aguilera singing.M

Is it because of Joanna Newsom?

They sound like a cross between old ladies and Smurfs.

I don't understand what these memes have to do with anything about that vocal style, and some of them are quite racist. Can someone explain? I'm a member of the labour party my whole life. Some of these are quite offensive and make me wonder if ILXOR has been overwhelmed by racist trolls since I've been away?
