Best Kelly Clarkson or P!nk album tracks?

[Liucci]

Been enjoying both artists a lot lately, but mainly their singles. I am not really familiar with many of either's album tracks, so I'm curious what album tracks from either you would recommend for me to check out and potentially add to my playlists?

Oh, bitch, this is my topic!! There's so many gems in both of their discographies. Gonna have to come up with a list and come back to this thread, but I can safely say that absolutely Kelly's "Maybe" and P!nk's "Long Way to Happy" will be on this list.

Kelly - 'Honestly' - should have been a single, vocals are truly top notch. A moment and a total mood imo.
'If I Can't Have You'
'Don't Let Me Stop You'
'Long Shot'
'One Minute'
'Einstein'
'You Love Me'
'Let Me Down'

These are mostly her rockier/pop tracks. Can't give an opinion on her more r&b leaning stuff like what's on MOL, as I am not into that sound from her.


For P!nk, 'Walk of Shame'
' My Signture Move'
and I know 'I Don't Believe You' was technically a single in some countries, but it gets overlooked I think
her original version of 'Whataya Want From Me' is great too.

I had every intention of saying "taste" when I read your list of Kelly's tracks. Then I saw the bold song.

Kelly has maybe 5 duds in her discography. "Einstein" is one of them.

I would recommend (by album):

Thankful: "Just Missed the Train" is always a good one, though other than that you're not missing much here IMO.

Breakaway: "Gone", "Addicted", "Hear Me", and "Beautiful Disaster (live)" are required listening for any diehard Kelly fan.

My December: Apart from "Maybe", I think "Sober" and "Irvine" are the best this album has to offer.

All I Ever Wanted: The aforementioned "If I Can't Have You", "Long Shot", and "Don't Let Me Stop You". If you are willing to count bonus tracks, I'd throw on "The Day We Fell Apart" as well.

Stronger: The aforementioned "Honestly", "You Love Me", and "Let Me Down". Skip "Einstein". Otherwise, "Alone" is worth a listen, though I do think it sometimes gets overpraised. And I've really been enjoying her "Hello" as of late.

Piece by Piece: "Someone", "Tightrope", "In the Blue", and "Let Your Tears Fall" are all fantastic.

Meaning of Life: "Whole Lotta Woman" is again required listening and is a mainstay at her concerts now--it was basically a single tbh. Otherwise I think "Would You Call That Love" and "Don't You Pretend" are worth a listen, though overall this album is honestly not my favorite by her. I'm not big on her Soul/R&B type stuff. I can't really put my finger on it, it's just not my favorite.

chemistry: The whole album. Lol but if I had to pick a few. "magic", "red flag collector", "lighthouse" (technically her current single though it's doing nothing so), and "chemistry" are all fantastic.

Her Christmas stuff: She has a way with Christmas original songs. I'm not huge on most of her covers, but her originals are definitely worth a listen. If you pick 5: "Every Christmas" remains my favorite song from Wrapped in Red by a mile. I also enjoy the album's title track. From When Christmas Comes Around... I would pick the one-two-three punch of "Merry Christmas Baby", "Christmas Isn't Canceled (Just You)", and "Merry Christmas (To The One I Used to Know". (Actually, CIC(JY) was technically a single so I guess I'll put "Glow" on here instead.)

I can't speak for P!nk...I enjoy her music when I hear it on the radio but not enough to seek out her albums.

You have a pretty good for Kelly up there so I'll do P!nk! Let me know if you need me to do Avril. ;) Just make sure you listen to the entirety of Let Go, perhaps the best pop debut of all time.

Can't Take Me Home: - "Hell Wit' Ya"

Missundaztood: - "18 Wheeler," "Numb," "Dear Diary"

Try This: "Save My Life"

I'm Not Dead: "Long Way to Happy," "I'm Not Dead," "Leave Me Alone (I'm Lonely)," "Runaway"

Funhouse: "It's All Your Fault," "Ave Mary A"

Truth About Love: "Walk of Shame," "Timebomb," "Good Old Days"

Beautiful Trauma: "I Am Here"

Hurts 2B Human: "Happy"

I haven’t listened to both artist’s respective albums since shortly after their respective releases. I always liked Pink’s albums (except the 2B human one) but after getting into them i didn’t revisit much. Someday I’ll have to revisit - or maybe I’ll follow this thread and start with what gets mentioned here.

For Kelly, “Sober” is her best song to me. It’s the one I listen to the most. For Pink, it might actually be “Glitter in the air.”

All ready to type out a list for you but musicfan134 basically nailed the assignment.
