I love already gone but i wonder if she releases the song just to do it better than halo.......

The same vibe, the same tempo, the same kind of lyrics, also a great voice....

1. Uhm Kelly wouldnt release a song just to do better then another artist. especially a artist who is in a totally different genre of music.
2. Vibe - Not the same vibe, Tempo - Halo is faster then AG, I think you mean beat and still it's to a certain point, Lyrics - lyrics are the opposite, so know they arent the same

Already Gone makes me cry cuz i remember "something" in my past
This is my favorite song by far.

[truth-hurts]

'already gone' is like a cheap version to the masterpiece 'halo'.. i would prefer if she release 'cry', 'save u' or anything else from the album..

Just came across this mash-up someone did of the two tracks. I thought it'd be appropriate to share since everyone's been discussing.

[And Now I Wonder]

^ I love that mix! I like both of the songs.

[xoxokely]

that one is cool <3

[Vixie]

Who will do better??? Queen b o kelly c!!!!!!????

They're not the same, just a little, why do people compare them so much, they're both great songs and that's it.
And I think that "AG" will do better than "Halo", and I prefer it over "Halo" too.

"Already Gone" is for me better than "Halo", and "Save You" would flop so hard........... "Cry" might too, but we'll see if she releases that.

+1 on Save You. I doubt Cry will get released, I can only see one ballad being released tbh

The whole freaking album is better than this Halo-RipOff-Not-Kelly-****ing-****. God im so pissed!

Rumor has it that Kelly recorded Already Gone BEFORE Beyonce recorded Halo right?

According to sources Ryan Tedder said in a radio interview (which I didn't hear so this is rumor obviously) that he wrote Halo specifically for Leona Lewis at the request of Simon Cowell. However, due to her schedule she was unable to record it and so it got shelved.

Ryan went into the studio with Kelly, wrote and recorded Already Gone. Beyonce was at the mixing studio with the guy who mixed Already Gone for Kelly and Ryan and he played it for her. She supposedly called up Ryan and asked for a song just like Already Gone so Ryan reworked Halo and she recorded it, rushed out her album release and that song as a single to supposedly beat Kelly to the punch. Given Beyonce's history this sounds plausible.

The songs don't even sound similar after the first 10 second so I'm not sure where the "rip off" vibe comes from.

I will say Already Gone is the far superior of the two IMO and any ripping off was done in the production of the song and not lyrically or even vocally.

I do agree though that Cry is a more touching/moving song however Ryan Tedder was guaranteed 2nd or 3rd single and the choices for that are

Already Gone
If I can't have you
Impossible
Save You

There is also a track called Tip of My Tongue which would've been great but will probably never get radio play due to it's status as a bonus track.

of those choices IMO Already Gone is the best option for a single release. Kelly has released two songs at this point which she had no hand in writing so I'm guessing it was important to her that she get a song out there that she wrote on.

and to those saying she should release Long Shot? HELL NO! it's enough that one Katy Perry song got released another one back to back? overkill. Plus Kelly's strength is her ballads so she needs to release a ballad and attract those fans who loved Because of You.

I have to wonder if it's possible they are saving Cry for something else.... perhaps a movie soundtrack (wishful thinking)

"If I Can´t Have You" could be a great Summer single

I don't disagree....they should release it NEXT summer since I Do Not Hook Up is obviously this summer's single

IDNHU will last on radio through at least mid July early August based on the longevity of MLWSWY which is still sitting at #6 on the chr/pop charts.

Then in fall they release Already Gone

That carries her through Christmas sales and then in January they release Don't Let me Stop you followed by If I can't have you or I want you for Summer 2010.

Then next fall they release Cry and finish off the album January 2011 with All I ever Wanted.

Then she goes back in the studio to work on her 5th album and it's ready for release by Christmas 2011!!

so singles IMO should be

MLWSWY
IDNHU
AG
DLMSY
IICHY or IWY
Cry
AIEW

seven singles is completely plausible from this album given the strength of these songs.

"Long Shot" is one of her best songs ever, and the best one from this album, it's radio-friendly, catchy, has good lyrics, and vocally is amazing. This would so hit #1!!! I hope it's the 4th single!
And how is it important that Katy wrote the song? And Kelly’s best songs are mid-tempos.

The first part, I agree with you guys by the word "rumor".
The second part, omg, what a stan! You can become a novel author, truthfully.

You too gurl. If Kelly's smart enough, she shouldn't release Already Gone because everybody would think her to rip off Halo.
