Looks like a milkshake in the background with the silver container next to it. Diner/80s theme video?

Please GAWD let this be the breakthrough we have been waiting for. I was starting to believe Kat did not even care anymore about making music.

The cards are lined up perfectly for her. She's never looked better (she's also never looked bad, either, but that's beside the point), she's on a hit TV series that just got picked up for a second season, and she's under Scooter Braun's watch. If this single is good enough, she could seriously come sweeping in for the kill. I'm so ready.

A Luther Vandross sample??? That is random as hell, and yet I can absolutely hear that working. Would love for it to be "Never Too Much."

From the clip alone it doesn't sound like this is much of a smash but I'm still very hopeful.

I hope this works out for her. It's odd how she, Adam Lambert, and Leona Lewis all seem to have lucked into getting second chances with major deals/labels.

If the sample is Never Too Much, then Keyshia/Eve and hell, even QUEEN PEN already did it. Admittedly, other than Open Toes and Over It, I never cared for Katharine to begin with and always found her to be a bit...desperate. Props to her for keeping her name and face out there all this time and being picked up by Scooter. We'll see what happens from here. I will check for the single at least.

She's my favorite AI contestant ever! "Keep Drivin" is a dear favorite of mine.

Wow her voice sounded great in the Tax Day special. Hyping me too much for this upcoming album.
And I'm very curious about the Luther Vandross sample. But if it works, it works. Also a couple weeks means a May release? I can't believe she's actually coming back to pop so soon now; it doesn't feel real but damn I want this.

Wait a minute...is Katharine McPhee the Idol contestant that had the scandal for having an affair with a married man and who was also with some old dude?? yes, she had an older boyfriend (later husband and manager) right after Idol. Then there were pics of her kissing the director of Smash while they were both still married. Then she filed for divorce, but then she and her husband reconciled for a hot minute, and then she decided 'never mind' and went through with the divorce anyway. Oh, and she claims they were separated when she was with the Smash director, but he said they weren't. Awk. Now she has new management and supposedly a new boyfriend, Elyes Gabel, but she hasn't confirmed the latter as far as I know. As to the Luther sample, Kat is shooting for a completely different audience from the ones who would know Keyshia Cole or Queen Pen so that really isn't going to affect anything. Not to mention, if artists only restricted their choice of samples to something that had never been used before we wouldn't have at least 50% of the songs that we do. (See: "Foolish," the bulk of Diddy and Kanye's production discographies, "Never Too Much" itself and the 27 times it's been sampled) While I still hope it's "Never Too Much," "BadBoy/Having a Party" would also fit. Those two songs make the most sense given the provocative title of her new song + it being unlikely that she sampled a ballad.

Thanks for the history lesson on Miss McPhee. I always thought she was an attractive woman with a pretty voice but came across as a bit bland. Apparently, she is quite spicy, LOL. I hope she brings that to her music this time around.
They could flip a Luther ballad a la Kanye. That would be cool. But, you are probably right. Never Too Much is much more accessible and familiar since it has been used multiple times before.

I would imagine the song that she is sampling is upbeat, as the clip she posted on her Instagram shows it's an upbeat song

Wow, complete slayage!
Ugh, watching Kat and Andrea singing The Prayer basically gets me emotional. Ugh. I need this woman back in my life!

If she were actually releasing pop records, I think it's be easy to say she has the best voice in pop music.
