Christina Aguilera - Candyman (Andrews Sisters-esque Music Video)
YouTube ^ | Abin Sur

Here's Christina Aguilera in a music video that's actually worth watching...unlike the vast majority of noise that calls itself "music" these days! It's a couple of years old, but I didn't see it in a search of the archives. Enjoy!

It’s cute! Lyrics are kind of rough, though.

Granted, it’s a bit risqué. Standards change...

I’m not very familiar with modern performers. I just happened to come across this video. Did she make another one in this style?

Fallout 3 introduced me to this Andrews Sister gem:

Trying to emulate the Andrews Sisters?

Very much so; Betty Grable and Rita Hayworth as well.

What do you think Campari kicked in for this video?

One of my favorite vids of all time. Someone sent that to me a couple years ago and sent me on a Christina kick, lot of talent there.

A bit risque? Standards change? Hmmmm.

Try this Andrews Sister song. It’s about soldiers getting drunk and hooking up with mother/daughter prostitute teams. Seriously. Expand the original poster’s comment directly below the video and read the lyrics:

For comparison, here are the Andrews Sisters in their version of Candyman.

Lyrics:

Tarzan and Jane were swingin’ on a vine
Sippin’ from a bottle of vodka double wine

He’s a one stop, gotcha hot, making my panties drop
He’s a one stop, got me hot, making my cherry pop
He’s a one stop, get it while it’s hot, baby don’t stop
He’s got those lips like sugarcane
Good things come for boys who wait
He’s a one stop shop with a real big ugh (*wink*)

Although, to paraphrase Betty White:
Her muffin hasn’t had any cherry since 1937.

Pretty fair pipes on Christina, she just can’t seem to find a musical identity for herself.
