There's been so much publicity for it... it's going to be a really personal record. Quite rocky but still a lot of variation.

Kelly said it's totally different to Thankful and Breakaway. She didn't want to stick to the same formula as Breakaway... even though her record company really wanted her too.

Simon Cowell's had his say aswell...

Quote:

Simon Defends Kelly

The ''Idol'' judge tells EW in no uncertain terms that Clarkson's earned the right to call the shots on her new CD, ''because Kelly will be here for 30 years''
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

SIMON COWELL:''Kelly is not a puppet; she does not like to be told what to do. She could have gone the easy route, which is, you go with ['Since U Been Gone' producer] Max Martin — it's a guaranteed success. She made it absolutely clear that she wanted to steer the musical direction on this record. You just gotta say, 'You know what? This girl has given us millions and millions of sales.' You've got to give her that opportunity. If it works out, fantastic. If she then decides she wants to do a pop album, every good writer and producer wants to work with her. Because Kelly will be here for 30 years. She has one of the best pop voices in the world right now. What she sold in the U.K., Europe, Asia had nothing to do with American Idol. It had everything to do with the fact that she made a great record and she's got an incredible voice. She's not a girl who got lucky in a talent competition; we got lucky to find her.''
I love that last line!
everything Simon said is true - i am clad she has had more of a say in her new stuff - and from the new single it seems like she knows her stuff

I prefer Carrie underwood to kelly clarkson but we only hear of kelly clarkson :hugesmile:

Polka.dot 19-05-2007 05:29 PM

i agree rice_square i prefer carrie underwood. kelly has a nice voice but i think carrie is better .

Sheepie 20-05-2007 07:46 PM

Yaaay! I found a topic on Kelly Clarkson :D

I *actually* love her to bits, she is the only artist who I can honestly say that I relate to in every song that she writes, and we all love a song we can relate to right?

Love Never Again, and I'm looking forward to listening to her full album, which probably won't be released in the UK for a very long time haha.

I think my favourite songs from Kelly that haven't been released are: Don't, Come here, Maybe and Go.


When I first found out how many songs there's gonna be on her album, I actually collapsed, I mean 27!
And bear in mind that she wrote every single one. good on her I say.

Lance 20-05-2007 10:26 PM

There's not going to be 27. There's 13 & a bonus track. Here's the tracklisting...

01. Never Again (03:36)
02. One Minute (03:05)
03. Hole (03:01)
04. Sober (04:50)
05. Don't Waste Your Time (03:35)
06. Judas (03:36)
07. Haunted (03:18 )
08. Be Still (03:24)
09. Maybe (04:22)
10. How I Feel (03:40)
11. Yeah (02:42)
12. Can I Have A Kiss (03:29)
13. Irvine (04:15)
14. Chivas (03:31)

It's out on June 25th. Just a little over a month to wait.

I love Don't and Come Here. I really liked Anymore, I wish she had put that on My December instead of Maybe.

Sheepie 21-05-2007 09:20 AM

Ohhh right, sorry about that my bad!
Yeahh I agree with you on that one. Ahh well it'll be good none the less.

Lance 21-05-2007 10:07 AM

She did record about 27... but only half made it on to the album. I think that's where you got confused. :thumbs:

Too right, it's going to be amazing.

I love Never Again & One Minute... so I'm sure the rest will be amazing.

Lance 23-05-2007 09:23 AM

Just heard two clips from the album.

One of "Can I Have A Kiss?" and one of "Haunted" (which Kelly said is more than likely going to be a single).

Eeek, they're actually amazing.:shocked:

Sheepie 23-05-2007 10:00 AM

How cool!
I've heard that "Can I have a Kiss?" is alot of people's favourite from the album.
It's wierd, when I hear the word Haunted, it makes me want to think of "Addicted," or this water ride at Le Efteling.

Haha, I'm such a wierdo. Thanks for the update though!:cheer:


EDIT: Oh. My. Actual. God!!!

I went and looked for them, and I found them on a kelly forum, and all I can say is actual wowz.

I want to hear more of CIHAK.
Can I say that Haunted sounds exactly how I thought it would be.
Wow, I've seriously got goosebumps.

Lance 23-05-2007 10:40 AM

Haunted is actually quite like Addicted, I love it. It's definately going to be a single, I'd say.

I really like CIHAK. Wasn't so sure when I first played it. I think it'll be like Where Is Your Heart? on Breakaway and be the one I didn't like at first but love after a few listens.

Sheepie 23-05-2007 01:33 PM

I admit that I've now been listening to that CIHAK sample for the past couple of hours on repeat.:lovedup:
I can really imagine it being in a film, in a romance scene or something.
But oh my gosh, it's just a song that I can relate to so much, especially the line:

"Don't move, I wanna remember you, just like this;
Don't move, its only a breath or two, between our lips".

And I agree with you about it growing on you after a few listens, and even though I don't think we should compare it to Breakaway (as they're both very different in terms of meaning to Kelly), I think that's kinda impossible as Breakaway was such a success.

Lance 02-06-2007 06:53 PM

Heard clips of 'Sober' (the track Kelly is most proud of) and 'Maybe' (finally a studio version!) a few days ago.

Really like 'Maybe'. Not over keen on 'Sober', although, everybody else is.

I know what you mean, from the clip I heard, I didn't really rate Sober that much either. Although perhaps once we hear the full song that clip might mean a bit more.

And I think my fav out of the clips is Maybe.
Really looking forward to this album this month :lovedup:

Lance 05-06-2007 12:09 PM

Never Again is out Monday (11th)

Everyone buy/download it.

ThisIsMarie 05-06-2007 04:50 PM

I didn't know she had a new album coming out! Yay!! :cheer2:
I really like her!

Nicola 05-06-2007 04:51 PM

I've heard "Never Again" on The Box, I like "Since You've Been Gone" and "Because of You" best by her - "Never Again" is a good song too.

Lance 06-06-2007 01:08 PM

^ Glad you like it, Nic!

I just got full version of Sober. It's definately her second single.

Amazingggg... much better than the clip!

Sheepie 06-06-2007 03:05 PM

Wow, I've just heard the radio edit version of Sober.
I't s actually hypnotic.
It actally feels like someone has ripped out my lungs. I'm stunned.

I like it loads.

Lance 07-06-2007 11:10 AM

Full version of Haunted has leaked apparently.

Click

I'm just gonna hold out til I get the album.

Love Maybe <3

Yeah I downloaded it after posting the other night, no doubt I'll hear Sober at some point too.

Love your Mutya banner by the way, she's one of two female soloists I'm listening to a lot at the moment.

Lance 08-06-2007 03:27 PM

Apparently 8 album tracks have leaked.

Just got One Minute studio version. Hmm.

Fom 09-06-2007 12:38 AM

ooof... lance im here :P
got the whole album its amazing!

hole and yeah = personal faves!

its on constant repeat haha!

Sheepie 09-06-2007 11:26 PM

Yeah I got tricked into downloading the album last night :(. Well, Friday night, but yeh.

In conclusion, My December oozes with uniqueness and great artistic ability.
Now I shall be off to buy it when it comes out :elephant:

Lance 10-06-2007 01:55 PM

Never Again is out tomorrow. Don't forget to buy or download it.:spin2:

Princess 12-06-2007 01:00 AM

I bought the single today! Go me :tongue:

I LOVE YOU.:whistle::tongue:

It's only top 20 on midweeks so far. There was a problem with iTunes selling it yesterday though.

Hopefully it'll climb! It was only #90something on the iTunes chart as of last night and it's shot up to #48.

Fingers crossed!

What do you think of the album Lance?

Lance 12-06-2007 04:45 PM

It's not as good as Breakaway.

I haven't downloaded it all. Just bits of it.

I love the rockier tracks. Hole, Maybe & Haunted are my favourites, I think. And I love Never Again. And Sober. And One Minute.

Ok, ok - I love it all.

Except Be Still. Not keen on that one.

Sheepie 13-06-2007 02:18 PM

My favourite from the album is Don't waste your time.
And has anyone read the nes that Kelly has fired her manager?
Eeek.

Lance 15-06-2007 12:30 AM

And now cancelled her tour.

Double eek.

Sheepie 15-06-2007 10:53 AM

Yeh I read that!
I think that everything is more than likely linked.
At least she's getting what she wants when she does those more intimate settings.
Reflects the whole ethos os the album too.
It just means I've got more time to raise money so I can buy tickets for when she tous in the UK! :lovedup:

SiMoN! 15-06-2007 02:00 PM

dose anyoen have a link ot the new songs you have been listenting to

or if you have the on yuor comp can you send then on MSN2 me plz (if yes i will U2Uyou my msn)

plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz zz

Sheepie 19-06-2007 01:15 PM

The thing with posting links is that you can never be sure who is actually going to go and buy the album. I really respect Kelly as an artist so obviously I'm going to go and buy her album when it actually is released.

If you want a sneak peak of all her album songs though, here's a cool montage video on youtube :)

Dan_ 20-06-2007 08:28 PM

Just listened to the album, certainly more experimental than Breakaway but I really like most of the songs.Sober,Don't waste your time,Haunted and Maybe.Be Still,Never Again and Can I Have A Kiss are all great too.Only song's I don't like are Yeah and Hole.

Irvine is probably my fave track, it's just so melodic.

To be honest I prefer this to her last album, yeah the songs might not be as catchy but I prefer the substance behind these songs better.

Tom4784 20-06-2007 10:05 PM

I love Kelly Clarkson, I own all her albums (apart from My December but I've heard the songs and i loved it and i'm definately gonna buy it when it comes out!) my favourite songs of her older albums are Breakaway, Behind these hazel eyes, Because of you, addicted, Beautiful Disaster and addicted. from what I've heard of My December my favourites are Hole, Judas, Haunted, Be Still, How I feel, Irvine and Chivas.....basically half of the album...

Might I say, She looks mighty fine on that album cover!

Sheepie 20-06-2007 10:08 PM

Oh my gosh yess she looks amazing!
I would turn straight for kelly lol :lovedup:

Lance 21-06-2007 04:43 PM

I think a huge problem with this album is that it takes time to grow on you.

I didn't really like it when I first listened. Whereas with Breakaway, you just fell in love with it.

I have much more respect for this album though because I know how much Kelly put into it and how much she had to fight for it to be released as she wanted it.

She's wicked.

Nicola 21-06-2007 05:00 PM

Listening to "A Moment Like This" live right now (her version, not Leona's even though I happen to have both!)

I loved it on first listen.I guess for some it's pretty different to her other stuff and it just takes a bit of getting used to.

I'm really glad she's got the record that she wanted, there's nothing worse than trying to stifle the work of an artist, it's clearly not about the money for her otherwise she'd not be taking risks but I'm really glad she has.

I will certainly buy the album and hopefully it's really successful as I think it so deserves to be.
