As a whole, Burlesque isn't the best of movies. However, it does have a killer soundtrack in which Christina Aguilera is absolutely brilliant. This girl can really sing. Here's my favorite song (which I think would make an excellent ballroom Cabaret. . .if only I wasn't retired). Anyway, this song speaks to me on so many different levels. It's called Bound to You. Enjoy.
Bound to You--Christina Aguilera
Sweet love, sweet love
Trapped in your love
I've opened up, unsure I can trust
My heart and I were buried in dust
Free me, free us
You're all I need when I'm holding you tight
If you walk away I will suffer tonight
I found a man I can trust
And boy, I believe in us
I am terrified to love for the first time
Can you see that I'm bound in chains
I finally found my way
I am bound to you
I am bound to you
So much, so young
I've faced on my own
Walls I built up became my home
I'm strong and I'm sure there's a fire in us
Sweet love, so pure
I catch my breath with just one beating heart
And I brace myself, please don't tear this apart
I found a man I can trust
And boy, I believe in us
I am terrified to love for the first time
Can't you see that I'm bound in chains
I finally found my way
I am bound to you
I am bound to
Suddenly the moment's here
I embrace my fears
All that I have been carrying all these years
Do I risk it all
Come this far just to fall, fall
Oh, I can trust
And boy, I believe in us
I am terrified to love for the first time
Can you see that I'm bound in chains
And finally found my way
I am bound to you
I am,
Ooh, I am
I'm bound to you

I agree about Christina's singing abilities. I think she has an amazingly pure and powerful voice. I don't understand why she doesn't have a more prominent career. I think she is better than her Mickey Mouse Club buddies Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake.
It's because she tries to be a pop-star when her voice is better suited for real music. To be honest I like Britney's pop music better. If Christina sang more stuff like the Burlesque soundtrack she'd be much more respected.
