Kelly has a writing credit on a song from K. Michelle's new album called "Run Don't Walk," produced by Chuck Harmony. I know she worked with him for this album cycle, so I'm assuming it's a song that didn't make the cut:

Run Don't Walk is pretty! But it's kind of weird that it landed with K. Michelle yet is more pop-leaning than almost everything on MOL. It does lyrically and melodically sound like something Kelly would sing, if Kelly were still doing straightforward pop. The production doesn't fit the overall sound MOL was going for so I'm not sure I think it's a 'leftover' per se, rather something she felt had potential and wanted to pitch it elsewhere. K happens to be a labelmate, so it was an easy pitch I'm sure.

This video aired a few weeks ago, but I have never seen it (so sorry it's a repeat), but if you're short for time, scroll 5:20 to see Kelly fanning out when she met Mia Farrow and see Mia's reaction:

super late! Listened to this album about a week ago and I've allowed songs to sit with me for a while! Incredible album with incredible vocals; I feel like she's wanted to make this album for a loooong time! Here are some of my standouts: Heat - lawwwwd an album standout, I've had this song on high rotation since the album came out! and the staccato background noises remind me of Rihanna's "Cockiness (Love It)" which I find hilarious tbh! Meaning of Life - gorgeous mid tempo ballad and I'm here for it being a single! It's such a gorgeous song and her VOCALS are astounding! Whole Lotta Woman - such a funky jam! very retro and modern in the vein of 24K Magic (the album, not the song) Cruel - I just REALLY love that chorus! Wow! Would You Call That Love - sonically reminds me of Gaga's "The Cure" - a gorgeous and catchy pop song! <3 Go High - sounds so different from the rest of the album, but I just love it because of the political tie-in and the weird vocal effect on the "highhhihihiihghihgh" part

I know she worked with him for this album cycle, so I'm assuming it's a song that didn't make the cut: I saw that on Wikipedia but there is not a credit to be found in the booklet. Claude did work on it though.

In an interview with Kiss 108 on FB she said they were previewing "Medicine" and it'd probably be the next single, but it was still between that and "Heat."

I also noticed that KC performed "Medicine" but not "Heat" at the Jingle Balls in Toronto and Boston over the weekend.

They’ve certainly had enough time to thoroughly test both songs. Therefore I expect whatever the choice is to have been proven to resonate with their target. There’s too much good material here for them to throw out something that doesn’t (Invincible).
Of course, I think it’s likely they’ll find that both of these tracks resonate similarly.

I didn't formally have a preference between Heat and Medicine but I have since changed my mind. It needs to be Heat.

My preferences. "Heat" for live performances, but "Medicine" for radio and as the 1st single between the two. Bring on "Heat" later next year.

Is Christmas Eve as amazing as the other performances? Can't wait to listen when I get home.

She got a sort-of-annoying honorable mention in Time's top 10 albums of the year: I say "annoying" because MOL represents that last line perfectly, and they still chose to include Taylor's meaningless, weightless reputation instead. 🙄

Off-topic: How do y'all actually deal with people who deny/ignore Kelly's talent? Like I get it.. you don't have to like her work if you're not a lot into pop, but saying she is average or talentless drives me nuts. I actually distance myself from people who don't acknowledge her talent. The perception of her talent is very bad, yet everyone knows 'Because of You' for example. That logic. I hope people will wake up soon - Atlantic is doing a great job, but without Kelly's VEVO account, the reach is very limited :/

If anything I've run into people who don't quite know who she is, and you have to sing SUBG or mention AI and they go "oh, that girl" LOL. I have run into people who didn't know she actually writes songs for real, if that counts.

The only negative thing a friend had ever said to me about Kelly is they think she is a great singer, when she isn't yelling/screaming.....I'll take that. As we all know Kelly can border on that from time to time. That's The most negative thing anyone in my life has ever said.

Just because she has a powerful belting voice does not mean she is screaming. I try explaining this to some people but whatever. It is something that comes up but I’m 99% sure they read it on the internet rather than actually think that because Yelly Clarkson hasn’t been allowed on stage in a very very long time.

Yeah, "screaming" tends to really mean "singing higher than my fave" since like 2009, with only a handful of exceptions since then.
