That TONE....I'm melting here, seriously. Besides nearly every facet of vocal talent, Kelly has raised the bar for vocal tone. In this track, you hear Kelly manipulating her voice from chest to head voice SO effortless countless times. That rich, buttery, open tone is exactly the pinnacle of possible tones, IMO, and has not been heard from a mainstream female artist from any genre since Mariah Carey at her peak. It is so da*n smooth that it almost sounds "wet". My other favourite thing about her voice here is how rich her deeper tones have become over the years, so much so that the combination of her tone and phrasing resembles that of some of the best jazz vocalists. A+++ as a "teaser" single ! Yes yes YES! I love this post and the detail, but you took it to the top of the tip with name dropping Mariah Carey! So effortless, so wet and dripping with that pussy juice. I love you Nelly.

Loved that post Neally! She says how she's been wanting to put out a Christmas album since Idol but I'm so glad she's waited until now. For many reasons, but mainly because the tone of her voice has gotten so much richer and more velvet-y.

As tempting as it is, I am just going to wait and buy the album. Completing the album always leaves a gap and then I have to go back in and change the single so that it shows up under the album. iTunes should really figure that out.

She has been working with producers who can actually capture her voice, and they just keep doing a better and better job of it. I hate christmas music, but god her voice sounds phenomenal. I can't wait to hear the entire album, actually.

Album available for pre-order and in the 80s on iTunes. Doesn't look like there's an iTunes bonus track. :'(

Oh, it's a scarf? I thought it was a dish towel... If they have it up for preorder then they should have samples. Just sayin... Not here for Norway* leaking it three weeks early again though. *Or whatever country botched AIEW's iTunes release.

DEATH @ I thought those were bath towels. And? Kelly's giving us the most for our money, we can use it to wear in the cold or to decorate our bathrooms with a festive touch/promote her album while our guests are visiting. Promotion all around.

Calm down boo. Even if they were bath towels I'd buy them anyway so sit.

Found this on Tumblr.. #53... don't know where, though) I just checked on my phone and it's #51 on the Overall Albums chart and #10 on Pop albums. I realize it's likely all the hardcore fans pre-ordering today, but still...that's a nice sign.

"We have a few songs from the last album that we love but didn't want to go to waste and be album tracks and have the potential to be singles." omggg DON'T EVER GIVE UP ON ME.
And: "I might cut two or three more songs, but we basically have the next album."

DAT! aaaand I Wish I Could Be Lonely Instead & You Still Won't Know *_* I can hear hits in Wasting Kisses and Shut Your Pretty Face... I doubt she'd ever wanna sing Who's That Girl or Wash, Rinse & Repeat I bet Mrs Right is gonna be on her country record... hopefully with Empty Handed I'm such an illegal fan

Wash, Rinse & Repeat could be so great though. But it really would have meant more (and done more) following AIEW. Oh well. I'm trying to think of what else they could use...a lot of it is wrapped up in that dance sound that's well on its way out, save for a few hits. Things could be adjusted, of course, but I really just need "Don't Ever Give Up On Me" and "Empty As I Am" recorded properly--wouldn't sound dated at all.

I would die just DIE if it's Don't Ever Give Up On Me. Shower her with Grammys. Throw it in a movie and give her the Oscar.

I've assumed for years that Mrs. Right would surface once she had a Country album, especially since she'll be married now.

Where can one listen to this Don't Ever Give Up On Me?
I want Close Your Eyes on her country release, particularly if it's a cd with Trisha and Reba as their voices would harmonize greatly on that song.
