It's true! The second her parents came together, their DNA combines in just the right way to give her vocal chords the qualities that later developed into her vocal range and prowess.
For those hating on her "Way too many riffs and runs.." She is perfectly in tune. That's how you riff and pull runs like that, she could pull it off. It just falls off her tongue so naturally. Gods gift. I don't like too many runs either, but she is one of the few that I don't mind at all! If she throws them in 🔥🔥
@@jodavi5763 coloratura isn't a voice type, it's a role in opera and should never been applied to pop singers. the reason she oversings and overriffs a lot (as it doesn't match with melody of the song) is because of her poor musicality.
Arguably one of her best rendition of At Last to date. She held back when it's supposed to be clean, and she WENT IN when it's supposed to throw down. Each and every phrasing she did was imbued with SOUL. I mean... you can't argue girl got SOUL after the things she did at 1:31-1:41.
It's rare to find somebody at that age that can sing like here even today. She killed it, powerful, emotive, soul, meaningful, memorable she has it all totally god gifted talent. At that time little did she know, she's going to be known as the voice of the generation.
I don't really know Jessica Sanchez but I do know Jazmine Sullivan and I agree she is awesome. Her voice is unique which totally separates her from other singer I just wish that she would use other part of her voice more like her falsetto, upper belts or her head voice because it seems like she stuck around her mid belts I still like her though.
Her admiration towards Etta is so heartwarming. This teeny, blonde 19-year old adored soul/blues legend like Etta and many others. Christina definitely is a blue-eyed soul singer. ♥
The biggest musical style influence in the last 20 years... Her style is so unique... Her voice, technic, her tone... Her inner world... I listened to this version once via some random first internet place, and forgot the lyrics and title... How increíble she must be 15 years later I listened Etta James in a café and aked for Christina's song!!! I still remember that only once listened song!!!! She sings directly to the soul... 🙏❤️ Blessed by Xtina
i absolutely love her. shes my idol, seriously. i've never ever given up as her fan. she has the most BEAUTIFUL voice, and shes not fake like every other singer. singing live and real, she STILL has the most beautiful voice. and shes sooo soo beautiful
Wow! I Iove the homemade feel of this video, she really looks like she's surrounded by people who care for her, which is a different side of her to see. What a legendary voice!
This particular rendition of "At Last," by Christina makes both me and my mother cry. Good tears! My mother was a really good singer and was in a band that played for weddings and parties, and I was a little girl 6 years old with my first guitar, growing up with my life drenched in amazing music! Music is like oxygen and I couldn't ever live without it! I love this particular rendition of The Queen Miss Etta James song "At Last," because Christina was 16 or 17 years old at the time. My mom says that Christina has got an old soul in that young body of hers and that she is just so very blessed! Music is very emotional for me and my mother and we bonded over this video when my Dad had cancer. He's still here 9 years later cancer free, thank God! I've never heard Beyoncé sing this song. But if she ruined it? Butchered it? Then I don't want to listen to it. With much love to everyone here,..in love and music, ~Cat from NY 🐱💜🎶👍🏻🌷😘🎶❤️🎶😘💗🎶
Its amazing how her range, note accuracy and agility improved by a mile since this performance! Here you can hear some flats in the peak of her runs but when you compare it to her stripped performance, it was polished and mad even better..
@@jazzi11xa amazing how she sings! for me she will always be prettier copying herself, not the fashion she copies from the 40s. as she appears in "genie in a bottle" i love her.
Best rendition of this generation...NO ONE tops that (even with a karaoke version ;) I don't care how many frills, trills, runs, scales, melismas, whatever you say Xtina put into this song, the point is simply she breathed fresh air into this song, and now people are inclined to sing it after Xtina's version (and the great Etta James' version too).... She owns this version of "At Last" - no competition (along with other Etta James' songs)..... :)
I know that was in the beginning so no one was probably feeling privileged to be in that room with her but damn, if that was me, I would have gotten goosebumps and just knew she had a gift.
this is Christina, and this is why we love love. oh did I mention she is also queen of the runs on top of being the Voice of the Generation. yea, I love to do mu runs as well. but we all know she runs the runs better than anyone else. Haha!!! And she's got a very cute laff too
To everyone who 'misses this Christina' : she's still the SAME person! This girl from genie in a bottle has GROWN UP and became an amazing woman, deal with it.
💖💖to me she is the best ever!!! ...it's almost like the song always had belong to her...her voice is really a gift from God...Fighter since day one and FOREVER💕
Her voice is a genetic gift.
Maybe her range, but vocal runs take practice & skill.
PetroleumJellay True.
Go to listen she at 8. Is a fucking gift 😨
It's true! The second her parents came together, their DNA combines in just the right way to give her vocal chords the qualities that later developed into her vocal range and prowess.
@CloudyDaze007 Ecuadorian and Irish
She pours her soul in what she sings. That's why she is a unique and great singer.
i completely agree with that
One of the greatest vocalists to ever walk the planet❤️
Erika agreed..... her name is among very very elite company.
sht up
Erika real
0:16 she's so cuteeee

I hate when people complain about that. That shit is so hard to do. She's a queen!!
Too many riffs. You lose track of the lyrics and song comes into something else.
She can't help it. It's called being Coloratura. It's part of her vocal type not styling (on most occasions)
@@jodavi5763 coloratura isn't a voice type, it's a role in opera and should never been applied to pop singers. the reason she oversings and overriffs a lot (as it doesn't match with melody of the song) is because of her poor musicality.
I mean it’s a jazz/doo wop standard. The riffs are half the point!
she was so cute
still is...
i know she is
Jeffer Ddk nah she's anymore. She's a goddess now.
not*
slaying since 1999
Does she have to be so cute?!? I love you, Christina.
I was fortunate to meet her at an album signing a long time ago.

Carlos Wagner the only other artist i know of currently are jazmine sullivan and jessica sanchez

So Christina's' SOUL speaks.
Christina Aguilera has the best voice ever
I agree, i really like her and Adele 👌🏼🙌🏼💘
Lol Adele has a generic voice@@sarahandeveofficial1427
THAT TONEEEEE ♥♥
So fresh 😍
I can't believe she was like barely 17 here. Baby Christina was the cutest
I can't believe she was like 17
When this came out she was actually 24 but yeah she started her career officially at the age of 17
Apostolis Kaprinis so did this come out in 2004 or 1999 because in 1999 she was 18
She was 21 during Dirrty era, how come she's 24 here? She's 17 here. Then the DVD (Genie Gets Her Wish) was released when she was 18.
@@apostoliskaprinis235 she starred her career way earlier than 17 lol and when she was 24 she already had finished the Stripped tour lol
@@MightyMico yes
christina was a true etta james fan, she showed etta so much love during the beginning stages of her career and etta loved her for it.
BabyTina
I had heard of Etta James but didn't look her up until Christina mentioned her in an interview.
Memory unlocked…i used to watch this video on repeat. Well over 12 years ago. The reason I began to listen Etta.
Her admiration towards Etta is so heartwarming. This teeny, blonde 19-year old adored soul/blues legend like Etta and many others.
Christina definitely is a blue-eyed soul singer. ♥

Christina is the greatest singer ever
Oh, how much I love this girl, her voice is imaginary
To me the best female singer alive today. You go girl.
No I’ve heard better
i can't agree more! she's perfect
she did that!! and without autotune!
damn i still love this so much
Sings with so much soul!
Chills she has an amazing voice
THE VOICE
Can you imagine if The Voice had been a show at her teen age years & she was a contestant?! Be 5 chair turn when only 4 up there!
Susie Smith 4 plus the one she would occupy 15 years later.
I was thinking about that too!! 😁 she would have definitely blown everyone away without any doubt!!
She was on “Star search” as a child ...
little did she know she's going to be the most influential vocalist of the generation
her vocal range and power is Unmatched right now. Her rendition gives me chills
Tanto años y aún la sigo amando. La mejor voz de todos los tiempos :')
Im sorry but this Christina's version is so much deeper and beautiful that the Beyonce's one...she is so poetic
of course!!!
Yes !! :-D
+Kendall Maree
for me she's even better than adele
+Jr Aguilera Uniqueness is the perfect word ;)
I don't like when y'all comparing singers with others.
they're both good.
Damn take me back to the 90’s 🔥🔥🔥🔥 no one could ever slay this cover like Christina can. ❤️
i cant stop listening this song, its so beautiful
Her voice is like fairy engel
Wow! I Iove the homemade feel of this video, she really looks like she's surrounded by people who care for her, which is a different side of her to see. What a legendary voice!
I just get tears every time. This is so special
What a voice!!! The best singer in the world..My idol.
Singing is literally a healing to yourself
One of the best voices ever.

She can’t be human…. Unreal. 💯
the control that she has with her voice.......i mean....seriously, is it even possible?
She is one of the best singers ever😍
she's so talented. she's one of my favorite singers. no matter what she sings, there will always be a tear brought to my eye from how amazing she is.
holy crap my body just went into shock from all the shivers.....Wat vocal talent.....wat talent...
she looks very young here, not only in his appearance but also in her demeanor, she seems so spunky and sassy, lov her!!!!
shes soo passionate ❤❤❤
What an Amazing Voice, it is simply Incredible. Eres grande!!
People stay mad at her. I just love her more and more with that voice of hers. She has the voice.
que bella dios!
The first of many..
This is good
But i like the stripped london version..
Full of vocal acrobatics..
Really showed what shes vocally capable of..
@@jazzi11xa amazing how she sings!

I love how she punctuates a lot of her performances with a little giggle. I feel like it reflects the genuineness of it.
❤♥
I wouldnt care if she was a hairy blue monster, with that voice she has got to be one of the most beautiful women in history
can't compare ariana to her cause Christina had and has more voice the her!
That's truth.
sinia avila ariana and christina are both amazing singers lets all agree on that
Xtina is more of a Demi
+Samantha Hemsworth wtf i wanna burn that comment...
+Samantha Hemsworth Demi Moore? How??
I know that was in the beginning so no one was probably feeling privileged to be in that room with her but damn, if that was me, I would have gotten goosebumps and just knew she had a gift.
アドリブ多用しまくりで鳥肌が立ちます。
X-tinaはやっぱ凄い！
めちゃくちゃ歌上手っ！
Love you Xtina!!
I've seen this so many times. Amazing how good you sing. How tempered you are, and how you know a lot about singing. Thank you Ms. Aguilera.
First, this is about Christina AGUILERA!!! No one else! Second, she is so cute!
i wish she was still like this, her personality has changed so much. i miss this christina.
this was just so soulful you could really feel it . such a spectacular voice i could listen to her all day
Her voice is a gift from heaven
this is Christina, and this is why we love love. oh did I mention she is also queen of the runs on top of being the Voice of the Generation. yea, I love to do mu runs as well. but we all know she runs the runs better than anyone else. Haha!!! And she's got a very cute laff too

I like how she got a whole room full of people to shut up just by singing, awesome.
Pero que voz tan potente ❤️ ojala haga mas canciones en español
Que pena que perdi essa época 😢
*#2018*
E eu vivi. Tinha a fita VHS que gravei da MTV.
That's why I'm gonna love her forever.
This is before Christina's voice went to her head. I know we all miss the other Christina. Still love her now, but you know...
I'm loving it!
i love her voice she inspires me all the time shes always been my favorite singer!
stupefacente, e la voce che fino ad ora mi a impressionato di più in questo genere musicale.
We need talent n songs like this on pop radio!
que hermoso sería poder escucharte en vivo alguna vez
She sang it great, and if you didn't ralized it wasn't a VIDEO CLIP I was home-made
Christina KILLS IT.....hands downnn......any song and that girl KILLS IT!!! Luhv her
Best Etta James cover of "At last" I've ever seen in my opion
Su voz is incomprarable
Pure talent! Love her!
Icónico Queen ❤️
Wish I had this voice, lungs and talent. Power house girl.
Dang girl! BELT it OUT!!!
Queen😍😍😍
as I remember I'd never listened to this song because I'm from Asia... I think Christina killed the song in great way! WELL DONE!
PERFECT!
I wonder how is possible this kind of voice from this kind of small body, she could move mountains with this voice ;))!
Brava, brava, brava !!!
Maravilhosa ❤️
JUST DISCOVER HER THAT SONG AND THAT VIDEO ESPECIALLY.SHE LOOKS SO PURE, YOUNG, LOVELY
a really great star of music.....
