During the Linda Perry/Christina Aguilera recording session of Back to Basics, Aguilera asked Perry to help her write a song about losing someone, as she felt that it was a subject she had yet to tackle in her music. Perry was very open with this idea and thought she could relate to it really well because she had just recently lost her father.
Linda Perry wrote most of the lyrics to "Hurt" before presenting it to Aguilera. Aguilera, however, thought it was too much of a personal song because of many references to Perry's loss. Aguilera then changed some of the lyrics to make it more appealing to any listener who has lost a loved one. Although it is not known if the original version of Perry's song was recorded, the one that made the album cut was the version co-written by Aguilera and Perry.

The song was not written by Christina, it was actually written by someone else. So, she is not singing about her father, although the video would have you believe that. It may be that the writer of the song is speaking to her father, but Christina is definately not singing it to her father, I do believe he is still alive!

The song was actually written by Linda Perry about her father, but they rewrote it to be more universal.

i think of that the song harm replaced into approximately her dad loss of life. of direction it replaced into no longer her real dad yet interior the song video her faux dad. i do no longer think of that there replaced right into a narrative in the back of it so i've got faith she replaced into in basic terms singing. she had a stable voice in that song and the song video replaced into no longer that undesirable.

She is singing about her dad because, she ignored him when she became a famous tight rope walker and she is really regretting it because now he is dead. Also her dad helped her all her life
