Before we get into this, we are STILL bumping Bionic. Forget the lack of support, the album is great and so is Christina Aguilera.

Now back to regular programming, WHY, Christina, why didn’t you release this song and video to lead the Bionic era. Sure, it goes against everything radio and summery fun but this is organic and talent at a high. The video, directed by Anthony Mandler, received a beautiful treatment that complemented the song as if it could not been better. Mandler, saved up his talent and released it into this video as it does not seem  like the million Rihanna videos he directed.

The emotions are displayed in a convincing way which pulls the viewers in and makes them connect with the pain that Aguilera sings about so heavenly. The clip, overall, is warm and heartfelt and is a far cry from the failed “Not Myself Tonight” video.
