You Lost Me
"You Lost Me" is a song by American recording artist Christina Aguilera from her sixth studio album Bionic (2010). It was written by Aguilera, Sia, and producer Samuel Dixon. "You Lost Me" was released on June 25, 2010 by RCA Records as the third single from Bionic. The track is a down-tempo ballad that talks about an unfaithful man, who has left Aguilera's world "infected".
"You Lost Me" was well received by most critics, who noted it as one of the album's outstanding songs and praised Aguilera's vocals on the track. The song had success in Israel and Taiwan, peaking in the top ten in those countries. Elsewhere, it reached numbers 43, 78, and 79 in South Korea, Slovakia, and the Netherlands respectively. In the United States, it peaked at number one on Billboard's Dance Club Songs chart.
The music video for the song was directed by Anthony Mandler. It was received positively by critics, who described it as a comeback by Aguilera following her video for Bionic's lead single "Not Myself Tonight" (2010). She performed "You Lost Me" on various television shows. The song has been covered by artists, including Veronica Rotin.
In August 2008, Australian singer Sia confirmed that she would work on several ballads for Aguilera's then-upcoming album. Aguilera commented about the collaboration, "I'm definitely a fan of Sia's. I was thrilled she also wanted to work together and, in turn, was a fan of mine". In an interview for Billboard, Sia said, "She [Aguilera] was just excited to get to work with the artists she loves. There's this misconception that she's a middle-America kind of person. But she's a little hipster. You go back to her house and sit by the fire with some wine, and what's playing over the sound system? The Knife and Arthur Russell. She doesn't listen to pop music".
In the standard edition of Bionic, the couple co-wrote three tracks, including "You Lost Me". The song was described as "the heart of the album" by Aguilera. According to the Herald Sun, Aguilera wanted to collaborate more with Furler for the album. "You Lost Me" was announced to be released as the third single in the US and the second internationally from Bionic, while "I Hate Boys" would be the second single in Australia. The single's cover artwork was revealed three days later via her official website. RCA Records officially released the song to US contemporary hit radio on June 27, 2010. A radio remix version of the track was digitally released on 7digital stores worldwide in July 2010. Two digital EPs containing remixes of the song were also distributed by RCA Records later that year.
"You Lost Me" was written by Aguilera, Furler and its producer, Samuel Dixon. The song is a ballad lasts for a duration of 4:17 (four minutes and 17 seconds). Written in the key of A minor, "You Lost Me" has a tempo of 50 beats per minute. Aguilera's vocal range spans from E♭3 to E5. The verses are sung by Aguilera using melisma. The song's instrumentation comes from piano and strings. Hinshaw Drew of The Village Voice labelled it the "un-bionic moment on the record".
Lyrically, "You Lost Me" talks about a "cheating" man, who has left Aguilera's world "infected". Amar Toor from AOL Radio thought that its lyrical content "perfectly captures one of the most difficult experiences young lovers have to go through". The song begins with a "somber orchestral" piano opening, followed by the lines "I am done, smoking gun/ We've lost it all, the love is gone" sung by Aguilera. During the chorus, she sings, "I feel like our world's been infected/ And somehow you left me neglected". Toward the ending, Aguilera's "painful" and "catharsis" voice "crescendos dramatically". According to Jon Pareles from The New York Times, Aguilera "barely" holds back her tears in the song. The Village Voice critic Drew Hinshaw thought that Aguilera is "less vexed by what he did than what he lost".
"You Lost Me" received generally positive reviews from music critics. Leah Greenblatt from Entertainment Weekly noted Furler's efforts on the "lovely" ballads "You Lost Me", "All I Need", and "I Am" had turned Aguilera into a "smoky, almost Fiona Apple-esque torch singer". She also considered the first one of them as "one of the most gorgeous things she’s [Aguilera] ever done". Elysa Gardner of USA Today highlighted the song as one of the album's standout ballads. According to Genevieve Koski from The A.V. Club, "You Lost Me" is the kind of ballad Aguilera "is best suited to". Mesfin Fekadu of Northwest Herald thought that the "emotional" song shows off "the diva's powerful voice", while Drew Hinshaw from The Village Voice deemed "You Lost Me" as the most vulnerable song from Bionic. Lindsay Zoladz, an editor of the Canadian magazine Cokemachineglow, wrote that the song was an "absolute stunner", adding that "her [Aguilera's] voice, minimally adorned, is free to showcase her amazing sense of control and kindle a subtle spectrum of emotion". In his revision for Entertainment Focus, Gary James called it "sublime" and opined it was impressively sung by Aguilera.
