Agreed. Bland.


  
Also agreed - it was a stinker of an album. Total let down after Stripped.

I think B2B had some great songs, but it was too gimmicky.

'Without You', 'Mother', 'Slow Down Baby', 'The Right Man' were all pretty great. I even like 'Back In The Day'.

I HATED disc 1, and disc 2 had some good songs, but as said before, way too gimmicky, and ofcourse her horrible screaming on every song.
The only good vocal delivery is on "Save me from myself" .

Without You was the best song BY FAR imo. Christina is always the best when she reigns it in vocally. And I love the key change on the final chorus.

I think the main problem with BTB was that there were too many damn songs, and too many bland songs. She could have easily cut the album in half - and it would've been better for it. I remember I burned a CD with the best songs from both CDs and it sounded much tighter.

i think B2B is a good album with some stand out tracks. it suffers from having too many fillers.

Agreed with the general consensus here on 'B2B'. Her voice was a bit better than on 'Stripped' but the songs overall were way worse.

I have an even deeper experiance. I went to the B2B tour. If you think the CD was bad, two hours of sitting through a lot of the album tracks nearly killed me. Worst concert I've ever been to by far.

But more importantly, how was her singing voice?

Well, she didn't mine - I think she was a bit more restrained than usual because she was protecting her voice with the rigours of the tour. So not too awful by her standards. The setlist was God awful though, honestly, the crowd was dead for the entire concert because she did so many songs from B2B and shunned the hits. It wasnt until the last three songs the concert became anywhere near the energy you'd expect.

It was dire. People were walking out shellshocked how poor the show was.

My favorites:

Makes Me Wanna Pray (one of my alltime favorite Xtina songs)
Candyman (LOVE this one!!!! Was so glad it became a single and I love the video!)
Nasty Naughty Boy
Hurt (her biggest hit to date here in the Netherlands)
Mercy On Me

  

And so I stand here and testify
To small and great alike
So the more you curse me
The more you're blessing me
The Word said it
Love your enemies

Do good to those who curse you
Pray for those who mistreat you

(Wish You Well / Mariah Carey)

It's weird how all these Christina fans come out of the woodworks whenever she does a performance. I wonder where these fans are when her albums come out?

This girl does xtina better than she can herself. I really like this cover, she hits all the notes and doesn't struggle like xtina did.
