Invincible is the Sia song! I had a feeling when I saw that one-word title. SLAY ME, GODESSES OF POP.

I'm kinda sure that Invincible and Run Run Run are gonna be singles, which reminds of the The Truth About Love strategy

The more I see the cover, the less I hate it.
But at the same time, the more I see other covers, the more I see what could have been.

YES at the Sia track. So excited to hear that one!
Also, did we know about this one? Mozella confirmed her track:

Dead at people never having heard of a Caps Lock.
Dead also at fans on here having to start their own private multi-user message thread to discuss Kelly so as to avoid certain new posters. #TheyreHexagons #ItsAShapeWeLearnRightAfterCapitalLetters

I must say the alibm cover looks striking and eye catching on the front page of iTunes. Only when you really look at it up close do you notice how bad it really is.

I am kind of shaking about the Sia song. I remember forever ago when Kelly tweeted at Sia saying she wanted her to write a song for her. I thought Sia or Kelly confirmed in an interview that it didn't work out or something. Maybe this was recorded after that interview, though. I hope it is an amazing track and not some throw away that Sia didn't want and everyone else passed on. No more IDNHU or Long Shot, please.

It looks like they kept the original "Heartbeat Song" single with the heart for the cover available in the iTunes Store. I like it when they keep both versions available. Does anyone know why the single version of a song is sometimes removed when the album is released/why it is sometimes not removed? What makes them decide to keep it or give it the boot? I'm surprised no one has answered you yet. It's a marketing strategy. When people search for the song, it will take them to the album's page rather than the single's, so more people see the album, which means more people are likely to buy the full album.

Meh, it defeats the purpose of the ignore function when the person you're ignoring is quoted. I am kind of shaking about the Sia song. I remember forever ago when Kelly tweeted at Sia saying she wanted her to write a song for her. I thought Sia or Kelly confirmed in an interview that it didn't work out or something. Maybe this was recorded after that interview, though. I hope it is an amazing track and not some throw away that Sia didn't want and everyone else passed on. No more IDNHU or Long Shot, please. www.kelly-clarkson.net/us/sia-confirms-that-wrote-a-song-for-kelly-clarkson/After Kelly covered Breathe Me, Sia tweeted how much she loved it and that she'd been submitting songs to her before, to which Kelly said "hell yes! Keep sending songs!" So that makes me think either those earlier submissions weren't making it past the gatekeepers to Kelly's ears, or that a final say from the label resulted in the songs not making the cut. Hard to imagine Kelly hearing a Sia song and not liking it. I'm sure Sia has Kelly's email now, though And a song everyone else passed on isn't necessarily a throw away. "Pretty Hurts" was passed on twice before Beyonce finally grabbed it, and that song is great IMO. And SUBG came off the reject pile, after all...

Kelly is one of the few vocalists that could properly fill a Sia-penned empowerment anthem. Have you heard the MJB version of "Titanium"? Not many people can do the low-to-head scoops Sia uses to great effect.

Speaking of "Titanium", I'd love for Kelly to do a dance feature in the future. Her voice is perfect for it, and it would keep her name out there in between albums with minimal personal effort.
Obviously it's up to her though, and who knows if she even wants that sort of attention now.

Hmm. It probably will look better on holographic, shiny paper. Definitely will step up the visual.

At least there's a method to their madness. Which they had done a different cover for the digital copy then though.

Wow, some really cool work on his Instagram - really like the multiple exposure shots. I wish I liked Kelly's cover more, but knowing it was shot with no post-production work and will be holographic is neat.

I definitely appreciate it a little more knowing that no post was done on the image.

Makes more sense now... But they still could have used a different cover for digital retailers. Might not be too late for that... The comments on her facebook are not nice, it's not just a Pulse thing.

Fuckin with Jack is about to get someone banned, LOLOL. Then again, that's me being Mr. Brightside! I am SO excited for this album. Probably more than any other this year, actually.

Not her changing her Facebook profile picture to a blurry, blown up version of the album cover.

Funny, a few people here said that the cover would make more sense if it was holographic. But now I wish she had not revealed the cover until the album was out. She could have told us it was holographic and that would have made us more excited to see it, knowing that it wasn't something we could fully appreciate till we saw it in person.
