[edit] About
Released on October 29, 2002, under RCA Records, the raunchy themes of the album attracted the most publicity, though not all, where Christina Aguilera insisted that the album reflected more of her emotions rather than her body.
The songs with that as a theme include Beautiful, Fighter, The Voice Within, Soar, Loving Me 4 Me, and I'm OK.
"Beautiful" earned Christina Aguilera the Grammy Award for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance in 2004. "Make Over" became the subject of controversy when critics commented on its similarity to another song in 2000.
Christina Aguilera recorded the song titled "I'm OK". The song is a personal account of her emotionally distressing childhood. She speaks about her father and her painful memories from her early life.
