Standard performance setup, which we should be used to by now, but more importantly
YAS QUEEN SERVE VOCALS

she killed it. I was nervous after her having to pull for a save during the bridge.

She was out of breath by the end (makes me concerned for the tour) but sounded good. For Kelly, it was a B+. By anyone else's standards it was a solid A

I thought it was great. Like, better than great. Amazing. Maybe by HER standards it was on par but for what we saw tonight, easily the best vocal. Loved the falsetto, just pure heaven. I wish her mic had been turned up, though. I loved how she is so in control. She knows her limits and she knows when she isn't going to get to a note and she knows how to change it without anyone but her hardcore fans even noticing. This is how she has lasted so long in this business.

I think she did a great job, I admit I was nervous given the inconsistency we've seen. Verses were very strong, and I raised my hands up in delight when she went for those notes at the end and hit every one of them. The song isn't really my fave but I'd be lying if I said those notes didn't excite me every time I listen. I'm very pleased, I hope it translates into some decent momentum for the song, it's gonna need it.

omg that was great, finally a single that shows off what her voice could do and her range somewhat well. wish i like the song more.
and unlike the kiss boston radio performance last night, she didnt take a breath, and held the big "what was i running fooOOORRR..." AMAZING! she looked as good as she could for her current weight, hair make up and dress looked good as well. they also gave her a respectable slot, instead of the usual first 40 mins into the show. i couldnt have had asked for a better night. thank u kelly u rocked it, and its only gonna get better as she does it more. omg

The BBMA was a solid B+ performance, but did you HEAR the full version at the Kiss concert? SPECTACULAR. Better than the recorded version, harder and higher vocals. Insanity.

Billboard Music Awards 2015: 10 Most Memorable PerformancesVan Halen ignited pyro, Simple Minds brought nostalgia, Kelly Clarkson unleashed her pipes, and other must-see moments.Kelly Clarkson, "Invincible"American Idol may be nearing the end, but its first season winner shows no signs of slowing down. Performing her new single, the pop star one-upped divas like Mariah Carey by, you know, actually hitting the high notes. www.ew.com/gallery/billboard-award-2015-best-performances/2194973_kelly-clarkson-invincible She sounded awesome. I'm still dubious of this song's hit potential, especially because they don't even have a Pop adds date, but here's hoping. Still listening to this album like I did the first week I bought it.

I liked "Invincible" when I first heard it but then I kind of lost interest. After last night's slaying, my interest is fully renewed. Queen Kelly served.

The ending at the KISS concert was unreal, but the rest was better at the BBMAs. Now if she combined the amazing parts from both performances into an A+ The Voice performance.. that'd slay hard!
On a side note - I've always LOVED the song. I kinda understand what people could dislike about it.. but then I don't! The chorus might appear weak at first, but when those oh oh oh oh's come, it's all fine again. And whoever isn't satisfied until the bridge, they will be slayed at '..that didn't exiiiIIIIIst' AND IF THAT'S NOT ENOUGH THERE IS THE FUCKING END ON NO-ONE CAN RESIST THE SOUND OF HEAVEN!
The structure of the song is fascinating to me. Whoever thinks it has weak spots, they'll get shivers earlier or later while listening to it.
I do hear a smash, but well, it's just my taste.

The Kiss performance of Invincible is definitely her best post-baby performance.
