Probably. Although LMD/IFY (not that I'm a stan of IFY) would've done better as a third single off Stronger. PLU showing up out of nowhere would've been confusing.

LMD/YLM/Alone/IFY (which I don't like) as a summer single would probably all do better than Dark Side. I know I've already said it many times but I still think that Stronger era was too short, especially when the album was successful and produced two big hits. DS wasn't a good choice for summer single but still they could postpone GH era and release YLM or LMD as late summer/early fall single and than end the era with The War Is Over as a winter single. I think CMB could have done better now with all the promo it had and by fall dance music might have been back (Lady Gaga and Katy Perry releases may bring it back) and PLU would do better. Then the GH era would be over approximately in October and Kelly would still be able to release Xmas album in November or late October and in spring 2014 she would release 6th album as she said (although we all know that it would be postponed like ten times....)

here's the Jane Austen ring thing again in link below. Dunno why they would put the ring on auction to anyone in the first place if its a national piece of history, etc.

I kinda doubted about dance being back. The radio trend showed that it was headed elsewhere with JGMAR being huge along with others.

Dark Side would've done better if it was the January single since ballads were huge.

For real!! Why sell it, if they're gonna tell people what to do with it?
Let the girl take the damn ring home! Well she agreed if someone else comes forward to buy it, she'll sell it. I wonder what happens if no one else buys it and the export ban expires?

Aww at least Brandon had a replica made for her.

[MissBreakaway]

So, apparently Kelly has two kids now. I didn't know Brandon's kids lived with him, I thought they lived with her mother! Or maybe they just visit them on the weekends and Kelly was exaggerating a little.

What were the categories for the video rate again? Or is it already done?

yeah, I don't get it either. They should have forbidden foreigners from buying it if they weren't allowed to take it from the UK. It's just... stupid. At least Kelly has Brandon and that copy.

Oh, come on, I wrote it for you a page back.

Subject matter: How clear the theme/subject of the video is communicated/interpreted, theme connection to the song, etc
Creativity & Originality: The use of imagination/artistry/originality of the theme in the video
Video production: Editing, sound quality, flow of the video, special effects (if any) etc.
Design & Set: The background/set designs, scenery, camera angles, etc
Entertainment (emotions): Video aging & how the video connects to one's emotions (Is it repetitive, memorable, enjoyable, cringeworthy, boring, entertaining, etc)

I've heard the song earlier but I didn't know she looked that fierce back then.

This video slays too. I had no idea she covered Kylie Minogue.

I downloaded the whole thing from youtube But she's had better concerts, her voice sounds very strained, probably because she was so tired and worn out during the BA era

I agree her voice wasn't great but the little changes she made in her songs is what I liked! I'm a sucker for hearing her do different things with her voice!

I read and listen to her interviews

She's mentioned it in an interview that they have joint custody. She said she helps the kids out with their homework. You know kids never do homework on the weekends, lol. In an interview last year she mentioned being tired because she stayed up all night with Brandon's son who was sick. So it seems they do live with them on a regular schedule.

It's okay. I'm glad I could help you.

And my favourite Kelly live performance is this one (and Up To The Mountain):

Awww.

I honestly always forget about Up to the Mountain. I feel that is in her top 5 performances ever. Right after My Country Tis of Thee.

And which other 3 performances are in her Top5?

[EdgeOfAddiction]

Her Grammy performances, maybe one of her Country performances, her AG AMA performance, her SUBG VMA performance (even though her voice sounded like ****), a couple others?
She doesn't really have iconic performances, to be honest. Just solid performances.

[MissBreakaway]

Her BOY performance at the Grammy's? Her 2005 VMA performance? But of course, Kelly isn't capable of iconic performances . It's not like her voice alone ***** on anyone else's at award shows.
Not to forget her rendition of the anthem at the Superbowl which was voted 2nd best in history, right after Whitney's truly iconic rendition.
