What's that note she jumps up to around 3:13? DAMN. She jumps from E5 during "honestly" to F#5 at "yeah".

Great to hear her finally perform it and do so well with it--hope we get better audio soon. But I think it's clear that she left it out to save her voice. One of the most important things she's learned over the years, in my opinion, is how to preserve her voice and know when to go for songs/notes and when to not, or to lower keys, or whatever she needs to do to get through a full era of tours while keeping her voice in top shape. I'll absolutely take that over the inclusion of "Honestly" on the regular set list.

Waiting for better quality audio of her singing "Honestly" live. I won't watch/listen till then.

The audio isn't bad at all. The video leaves a bit to be desired as it's a static long shot, but there is no audio distortion on the video at all.

Oh. My. God. I wish I lived in a world where Honestly would smash hardcore just so that she would sing it live all the time.

I still believe that "Honestly" would be the perfect fall single. It would smash so hard. Too bad they're moving on (allegedly).

Loved that rendition. It actually translated beautifully live, which had been my major concern about its ability to be performed. Her voice sounded amazing, as usual. I love this era :'(

Loved the performance.
But Honestly wouldn't have a chance in hell of making any impact whatsoever as a single. That's crazy talk.

The "Honestly" performance was amazing, perfect, etc.
I really hope we get some news about what she's doing next. I feel like they should announce a greatest hits single like, now, if they really are going ahead with the project - idk why but I feel like they are running out of time if they want it out for the holidays. The suspense is killing me.

I know it sounds crazy, I really do think radio would respond well to a song as theatrical as this. It's a huge production, and I don't think it would do as poorly as you think, especially in the calming autumn days where radio embraces slower, less "jamming" songs. We'll never know, though, because RCA would never release it to radio.

I didn't really understand why Honestly was on the album if it wasn't going to be a touring staple. Not that it's a bad song, but definitely not one of the album's high points.

I do have to say it: this is my favorite performance from the whole tour. I know her voice is great but sometimes I feel like it has lost its pureness, and honestly brought that clear, pure voice back to forefront so beautifully. It also helps that I love the song so much.

You can now buy "There's A New Kid In Town" (Blake Shelton featuring Kelly Clarkson) on iTunes!

Wasn't Cowboy available for free through Pepsi's site, though?

Is the version on iTunes any different from the free version on Pepsi's website (i.e. taking out all the team references so it can be a more 'accessible' song to the general public)? If there are any differences then that probably is the new single. I do like "Get Up" but I was hoping the single would be something new.

Kelly sounds so pristine on that Blake song. Ugh, can't get over it. Is the version on iTunes any different from the free version on Pepsi's website (i.e. taking out all the team references so it can be a more 'accessible' song to the general public)? If there are any differences then that probably is the new single. I do like "Get Up" but I was hoping the single would be something new. Judging by the preview, it's the same. Weird that it's on sell while they're giving it away for free.. lol

Just bought the Blake duet! Absolutely perfect! Their voices mesh soooo well! Although I didn't like having to wait a minute in a half before hearing Kelly's sweet voice. This will absolutely SMASH on the AC charts during the freeze!

The Christmas song is perfect. It's the most popular song being bought of the album (obviously). Kelly is coming for the Country Vocalist of the Year crown. Hopefully it gets released as a single. Is the version on iTunes any different from the free version on Pepsi's website (i.e. taking out all the team references so it can be a more 'accessible' song to the general public)? If there are any differences then that probably is the new single. I do like "Get Up" but I was hoping the single would be something new. Nope, it's exactly the same. I think they put it on iTunes just because they can. I doubt it's her new single.

Yeah, I'm not at all convinced this is a single yet. Pepsi probably had it put online for purchase before they start doing any promo for it (which I'm sure will just be a commercial, but we saw how good that was for "Stronger"). It may still make the GH album, but I can't see them just tossing the Cowboy version out there randomly without any sort of announcement if it was really the first single.
She sounds really lovely on the Blake duet. But I still think it's a lame song. That being said, I hope it's released because it could do well for them, especially with them (maybe/probably) performing it at the CMAs or whatever country award show she's performing at with some variation of that abbreviation.

They wouldn't release a new lead single from a GH album that has already been given away for free AND do it before officially announcing the project.
