If "Strong" is another gem that she could've put on her album I will... do nothing but I will be really upset.

The beginning is like 'Stronger'.... I like the lyrics tho.

I found that news on KCE. My sister also Directioners, and she didn't tell anything about the songs that helped by Kelly

[Legend E]

But look, Gary is credited on his song. Weird tbh

[jpsketch]

Kelly had nothing to do with Strong.

Another song to 1D? I don't really like the chorus but the verses are good and I like the message. Keep the good songs for your new album, Kelly!!!

What would you guys say is Kelly's best performance ever? For arguing purposes when people are trying to downplay Kelly ha vocal power.

Up To The Mountain? 2013 Grammy perf? Inaguration? Not sure. I think UTTM is my favorite.

Edit: TMAL teas?

I know about it but I think it wasn't posted, so no TMAL tea.

Tbh I have the same thought with you... I interpret the word 'helped' like she gave them a bunch of idea or some melodies not wrote half of the song or like she did on 'Tell Me A Lie' song.

Parts of it were a little like Stronger, it's a cute song though.

It would fit in well as an album track on the new love inspired pop album if they changed it up a bit, gave it more edge, maybe with a different title though as she can't use Strong

Agree. It would be a little wierd for her to have a song called "Strong" after a song and an album called "Stronger".

This song (don't care if it was or wasn't written by Kelly) makes even more aware of how much I want new Kelly's (non-Xmas) music.

Sorry for this TMAL tea, but I need someone to explain Page 2.

Don't know why everyone stans for that performance. That part was rough. I guess some ppl think it made it more emotional or something, but I just found it distracting. Of course, girl killed it virtually every other time she sang it.

I was never a huge fan of this performance, she sounds pretty tired going up to the F#5s.

The Idol Gives Back one was still my favorite but some of the most clean ones vocally were from the 2nd leg of the Reba tour:



Another performance I'd definitely say is one of her best would be I Know You Won't. I can't decide which one I think is best though….probably either the Troubadour or the VH1 Unplugged?

Go with the covers she did better than anyone else/original artist.

Like Cryin, Creep, Princess Of China, Ready For Love etc.

Or her songs:

SUBG on Ellen 2004 (the one my avi is from)
Miss Independent 2004 AOL
Walk Away CDUSA

Speaking of covers...

I've always loved her version of this. I hope she will have a sad ballad like this on her next album. It's been a while since we've had a genuinely sad song from her. Honestly and The War Is Over were close but they felt too powerful and melodramatic. Something like Just For Now would be perfect.

Not everyone dragging that note I love that performance more than the ones where she hits it cleanly. Even if it wasn't "perfect", it was such a powerful moment. The song is all about feeling defeated and the way her voice breaks just felt like something so real that couldn't be phoned in or recreated.

Teach them lessers who don't know the difference between raw vocals and pitchy vocals

[MJ Boston]

It was a bum note. Kelly is allowed. Everyone has moments. Except the gorls who can't sing more than 1 note to begin with.

YES <3
So emotional and touching.

She didn't really miss the note. It sounded more like her voice just gave out while hitting the note. lol

Yea she just started going slightly flat at the end of the note, but her voice literally sounded tired for that moment which worked perfectly. It wasn't like that Australian performance where her voice completely cracked (now THAT was distracting).

[Mhs90]

Kelly's unintentional "bum notes" make a live song so much more powerful if it fits right--either making or breaking her performances. They're found everywhere in My December compared to the overly produced and polished vocals in her lesser albums.
