Amazon Pre-OrderNo adds date, but the goddess herself has confirmed this as the second single, and it has finally arrived so we have the music to discuss now.

I am very unsure of this track's trajectory on pop radio. It's one of the best songs to hit the format in recent memory and I can definitely see it becoming one of my favorite Kelly songs ever. THOSE VOCALS!
I just hope we are not looking at another "Sober" situation.

THOSE VOCALS! I just hope we are not looking at another "Sober" situation. Well Clive told radio stations not to play "Sober" (and the song never got past bubbling under) so it's unlikely this will be that kind of situation at all. A more likely worst-case scenario would be PLU or Dark Side, I think, although I'm holding out hope that Invincible will perform better than those two songs as well.

Why would he tell radio not to play her song? Just wondering, thank you for your time! I really love this song! I hope it is on iTunes soon, I have the album pre-ordered, so it should be in my hands soon! LOL

I hope it is on iTunes soon, I have the album pre-ordered, so it should be in my hands soon! LOL Kelly said Clive blackballed "Sober" at radio so it (and My December as a whole) would fail. He didn't want her to release the album as it was. I can't find the direct link to Kelly's tweet/post but here is an article that mentions everything Kelly said about it - www.hollywoodreporter.com/idol-worship/kelly-clarkson-slams-clive-davis-422397I ordered the box set and I'm kind of bummed now because I don't get to download this right away :'(

This is nice, Kelly sounds awesome.
The bridge is amazing, and that high note is divine. I don't think this sounds like anything Kelly has released, but the general public seems to use that criticism against a lot of artists who don't deserve it, so I wouldn't put any stock into those comments.

After a few listens, I realized that along with Already Gone, this reminds me of One Republic's Secrets. I'm enjoying it more with each listen.

I think it's a nice change of path. Now that ballads are back it's time to make power ballads again.
Anyway, it's a big too soon. Heartbeat song is not done yet

Maybe this will prove I don't have it anymore, but I really don't see this doing a whole lot.

The more I hear it, the more I am obsessed with it. It's so different, so Kelly, so powerful. This is the kind of Wrapped in Red sweet spot that I was hoping she would find on this record.

Just a heads-up that this is on Spotify now, too.

I think the song is more of a strong album track than single, it reminds me of "Already Gone" a bit. I hope it'll do well as the vocals are great! Fingers crossed it'll be a big hit on HAC/AC and help drive album sales and a minor-moderate hit on POP.

Damn at her voice on this!! Kind of love this already. I was so disappointed last night when I couldn't get the link from Amazon to work, glad it's up on iTunes! :)

I like this, and prefer it to HS, but the hook isn't that strong. If you were to play this for me a few months ago, I'd say it would probably make the top 20/top 15, but after the lead single has had trouble cracking that region on this format, who knows.

I like this about as much as I liked HBS. It still lacks some kind of WOW factor for me, but as a huge Kelly fan, I hope this doesn't stall and end up being the last single from the album, which might br the case.

Amazing vocals. I was enjoying the hook more towards the end of the song, but I definitely agree with Glove that it's not that strong. I'm not sure on this song's potential as the 2nd single. If not even HS is really smashing, I don't see this being a monster hit.

The production is interesting. I like this better than the first single.
