October 1, 20177 yr Do you mean announces and doesn’t cancel? :kink: Kelly hasn’t cared about commercial success or performance since My December tbh, think she’s probably quite happy putting out the music she likes, regardless of whether the single is a hit anywhere. Like Jonjo said I reckon a top ten album is a given, she’s a big enough name to generate some good starters. Hahaha burn! Yeah if she can avoid getting preggo long enough for me to buy my tickets that'd be fab!
October 1, 20177 yr Hahaha burn! Yeah if she can avoid getting preggo long enough for me to buy my tickets that'd be fab! I love Kelly but it did frustrate me how it hadn't been thought out. The fact she cited vocal reasons to cancel and then appear on a few big slots such as Idol did annoy me a little bit. She has said though she doesn't plan on having anymore children so I think a world tour for 2018 is definitely a viable option! EDIT: Another interview, fantastic as always!

October 16, 20177 yr Author I only heard this for the first time today: MdBws54ZHyY FFS. She's just in a completely different league to everyone for me. Hamilton has been on my to watch list for a while, but hearing this version just sealed the deal and I must see it asap. No one gives me emotion and sincerity the way Kelly does. I'm literally shook at that cover :cry: :cry:
October 19, 20177 yr I like it - bit too repetitive for me on first listen. Waiting for her to announce a tour, come on Kelly :cry:
October 22, 20177 yr First review of the album is here! https://www.popstonesheroes.com/single-post...y-Clarkson-yall
October 22, 20177 yr First review of the album is here! https://www.popstonesheroes.com/single-post...y-Clarkson-yall Oooooh thanks for posting that - preordered a signed copy, so excited for Friday! However.... “ThA BaNgEr is the final track Go High. Remember when listening to Take You Higher in her previous LP made us think "What?! Is she on acid? Or am I?" Well, Go High is a close cousin of TYH but with no drug problem” doesn’t fill me with confidence as TYH is easily up there as one of my most disliked tracks in her discography.
October 22, 20177 yr Author Take You High is one if the best! :o Excited to hear this album. I've loved everything I've heard so far!
October 23, 20177 yr It’s not like TYH based on the new trailer she’s just shared! :o Don’t know why my phone double posted! The last few tracks on preview alone sound outstanding! Edited October 23, 20177 yr by SeanmanjiGrey
October 23, 20177 yr Plus unless that blogger is internal at Atlantic, I’m not aware the album was distributed out yet and if so, reviews would be embargoed until AT LEAST wednesday...
October 23, 20177 yr It most likely will bomb...only the hardcore fans are likely to know about it and will buy it.
October 24, 20177 yr Ihave to say the alum sounds a bit samey :( If you just listened to the songs we've got so far, you'd get the gist. I think it'll be the sort of album that will be fab when you listen to it all but you never really go back to many of the songs on their own.
October 24, 20177 yr im so torn about this because i don't think the production & songwriting is where it needs to be and i feel like Atlantic have given her too much free rein for it to be an international smash but i love Kelly & am willing it to do well. you can tell how passionate she is about the project and she's the happiest we've seen her in a long time. the only thing that seems disappointing is the material itself.. as much as it pains me to say it.
October 24, 20177 yr OCC have released her top 14 best sellers with combined chart sales for the top five: 1. "Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You)" - 8 - 2012 (620,000) 2. "Because of You" - 7 - 2005 (530,000) 3. "Since U Been Gone" - 5 - 2005 (495,000) 4. "My Life Would Suck Without You" - 1 - 2009 (462,000) 5. "Heartbeat Song" - 7 - 2015 (412,000 - #1 on streaming only) 6. "Mr. Know It All" - 4 - 2011 7. "Breakaway" - 22 - 2006 8. "Second Hand Heart" - 21 - 2015 9. "Behind These Hazel Eyes" - 9 - 2005 10. "Miss Independent" - 6 - 2003 11. "Underneath the Tree" - 30 - 2013 12. "Piece by Piece" - 27 - 2016 13. "I Do Not Hook Up" - 36 - 2009 14. "Never Again" - 9 - 2007 "My Life" still really doesn't feel like a #1 but I'm impressed that it's in the top four. "Underneath the Tree" really is a future Christmas classic though, hopefully it can break into her official top ten this year! Update: 1. "Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You)" (630,000) 2. "Because of You" (543,000) 3. "Since U Been Gone" (507,000) 4. "My Life Would Suck Without You" (467,000) 5. "Heartbeat Song" (417,000) Pretty decent increases, "Since U Been Gone" has added 12,000 units in ~7 weeks! The ranking remains the same, I imagine there's quite a gap if "Piece by Piece" hasn't managed to climb any further with its new peak. It does feel like 'Meaning of Life' is going to flop quite heavily which is a shame. I really enjoyed the 'Piece by Piece' album (apart from "Heartbeat Song") so I was hoping she'd get at least one medium-sized hit from this.
