Overview Edit

"Beautiful" is a song written and produced by Linda Perry and recorded by American singer-songwriter Christina Aguilera for her second studio album, Stripped (2002). It is a cello-driven, classically-flavored ballad in which its protagonist deals with hurtful statements made against her that cause her to feel insecure and have low self-esteem. She does not let other people's negativity get the best of her. It was released as the album's second single in late 2002 and reached number one in several countries. The song won the Grammy Award for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance at the 2004 Grammy Awards. The song also was ranked number 52 on Rolling Stones top 100 songs of the decade.

3 stars Not the best deal
While the cover is cute, all the other "Beautiful" import singles have that picture, and the picture is also in the insert of the album STRIPPED.

The main reason I bought this cd was for the music video. I had already downloaded the music video off a fan site and thought it had great quality but coul…
