So nice to see Kelly getting the kind of recognition she so richly deserves.

Happy December, y'all! Kelly continues to bless us this year with an abundance of musical gifts. Here's another! Singing an even higher note after "divine" was an ingenious choice. Who else but the Queen of Vocals Pop Christmas?

You can hear some of the differences in tone, richness, lower register, control, and power in Kelly's recorded voice on 'O Holy Night' from now (above) to 14-15 years ago:

She talked about filming the music video for Meaning of Life before the album came out. I wonder when it's going to be released.

She talked about filming the music video for Meaning of Life before the album came out. I wonder when it's going to be released. She was quickly shut down when she started to mention the video. The problem is that she could have been filming the video for Cracker Barrel stuff. It just seems hard to believe that she filmed an entire music video and it has been kept so quiet. We always know when she is filming videos based on call-outs for extras and all that stuff.

Cute little interview with the Chicago Tribune, and someone finally had the nerve to already ask her what she has planned for her next album (not much to mine here, but I'm glad the word "country" is nowhere to be found).

The only thing that needs to be done at the Grammys is Move You with a full choir. That is all. And everyone will take her cry to "move us like that" to another channel.

"Move You" has had more than its fair share of promo. I will only accept performances of her new single or another flawless MOL performance (though I think I would prefer the backing of a full band and orchestra for that setting).
Fake news: I'll accept anything.

Don't agree with the complaints that James wasn't excited enough about Kelly because he forgot a lyric for a brand new album track of hers. He sang harmony parts, did adlibs, clearly knew the material inside and out. She was reportedly his first every reach out/choice for Carpool Karaoke, he was clearly charmed and amused by her. He gushed over her voice and got her to do acapella snatches both silly and serious. If he wasn't 'startstruck' by her it's because she is the most unstarry, normal celebrity you or I will ever meet. You can't have it both ways. You can't love Kelly for being almost uniquely approachable and normal, and then complain that people don't treat her like she's Mariah Carey. She sang more than enough songs compared to other recent stars (and more than Pink). She got a funny and buzz-worthy segment with her husband. She did the high note all the fans were clammering for months. I guess some people will stay Dudley on the morning of his birthday, but damn. I almost wish she'd hadn't bothered, given some of the moaning. Now Jack, play nice! It wasn't just a brand new album track, but I believe he flubbed Love So Soft and even Because of You but...I tend to focus too intently on stuff like that, so I'll take the L here. Like dbhmr said, Kelly was James Corden's choice for his first CK (which I admittedly didn't know) so I will take back the part about him not being a fan. Plus, it's not like I didn't cite positives about the segment so...chill, boo! In other news, I am so happy that she is continuing to receive accolades and be known for the unstoppable force that she is and has always been. What a time to be a stan! The only thing that needs to be done at the Grammys is Move You with a full choir. That is all. And everyone will take her cry to "move us like that" to another channel. Now you KNOW that ain't true!

I am 100% against Move You. It doesn't move me until the very last 1/3 of the song. MOL is much bigger and vocally superior, IMO. I love the piano version and think some kind of combination of starting with only piano and adding in strings for a bigger ending would be ideal.

Wow. Kelly is having such a moment and its been incredible to be a fan of hers along for the ride! LOVED her on Billboard. It makes me that much more excited for her to be on The Voice next season. And a new release of "Oh Holy Night"!? Divine indeed!

Lordt it was painful waiting for Kelly's part on that "Christmas Is A Feeling," but she's staying so high and clear on her verses--it's almost as if it was recorded around Wrapped In Red. Nice to hear how her voice has really overcome the post-pregnancy issues she was having, but I'll never hear that song again.
Also, she looks amazing in that little video to Aretha.

I can't wait to get in my car and listen to the new recording of O Holy Night. I will be interested in hearing it now vs. 15 years ago. I do find it interesting that she decided to record a song that she had previously recorded as opposed to some other classic that she had not done before. Knowing Kelly, she doesn't remember recording O Holy Night before. lol

O Holy Night was for a movie, so Kelly probably didn't have a choice. I like the new rendition much more than the first one.

I do have to agree with the MOL piano version sounding a bit underwhelming. I listened twice and still think it's better with the full background of instruments. This isn't a PBP situation where the lyrics are the main point of the song; the beat and instruments make the song too, and I just don't think the lyrics of MOL are personal enough/strong enough to stand on their own merit a la PBP. 7/10 not bad, but I actually like it better with the orchestra.
On the other hand, that O Holy Night. I was slain, resurrected, and slain in an endless cycle during that time. 110/10 much better than the original rendition of hers.

I just got the album last week and.... it's definitely her best album since.... maybe ever? She has so much style and attitude and she sounds so free on it. I'm so happy for her!
