Stay is absolutely gorgeous. Somewhat in tears? What's wrong with me.

Stay was great, thanks for the video. I love how she changed it up just a little. Gorgeous.

Stay Slay :'(
There was something touching about Rihanna's numb delivery of the original, but I really like that she wrung every damn drop of drama out of this song. It was like Patsy Cline on steroids.

I'm probably in the minority among Kelly fans, but I really like "Invincible."
I tend not to care for Kelly's anthemic smashes, but for some reason, I love most of her songs that don't fare that well on the charts.
It's funny, because although I can see why "Invincible" isn't connecting with the general public (it lacks that spark and punch her past smashes have in common), I think it's a cute song, and I am a tad surprising it has performed so poorly.

Frankly, still too in shock to do a proper review but...I've been to hundreds of live shows and Kelly's was far away the best vocal experience I have ever witnessed in person. It's not like I am surprised but...I am. I just wasn't expecting that LEVEL of perfection. The raspiness, the sexiness, the playfulness, the technical ability...even the pop rock songs I didn't care for blew me away. I thought Uptown Funk was hot (especially how she said "gon' GIVE it to ya!) and Bang Bang when she came out and slayed that ending, even with those perfect backup singers. I even thought she looked good. Also, Radio City has such great acoustics. It was awesome being in the front row center of the first mezzanine but I thought, during SUBG, that the thing would collapse from all the people jumping up and down. I just kept saying "WOW." throughout the show. I will see her WHENEVER she comes back to the area, even if in another state.

Love your improper review Overloaded! She's the best there is, imo. I'm happy you finally saw her live. :)

^^I agree, Overloaded. This was my first Kelly show as well and I'm still shocked at 1) How good she sounded, 2) How into it the crowd was 3)Her overall star presence from song 1 (As soon as the music for Dance With Me started, she bounced onto the stage and cutely said "I'm baaack" and everyone jumped out of their seats.) Best live show I've ever been to.

Her cover of "Stay" reminds me of when she effortlessly slayed Britney's "Everytime" on the Stronger Tour.

Is she wearing these dresses at outside venues in the summer? My gosh! She must be miserable. Other than that, glad to see everyone is enjoying her shows.

She needs to cover 'Pretty Girls'. LMFAO. If it ain't been heard outside of Pulse, Kelly ain't covering it.

Don't forget when she killed Till The World Ends!
If she does Queen Brit again, I'm hoping for Toxic or a cheeky Oops performance.
I'm personally going to be Twitter pleading for Many Rivers to Cross so I can drown in my own tears.

For my date I asked for Britney's Shadow/ any Lana Del Rey song. If she can do it right I think a Lana cover would be incredible. idk if she could take on Off To The Races, but I bet she'd do a great Summertime Sadness imo. but secretly im praying for sad girl

I'm loving the fan requests moreso this time around.

Like, we all love her, we all paid 100$ or more to see her. Get over yourselves people. I'm sure she finds it annoying as well. You want to get her attention? Buy a meet and greet and let everyone enjoy the show. I do love giving the side eye to these people and my bitch face is going to be on point before the show.

Seems like Kelly is beginning to elicit a decent amount of press for her covers again. I hope it does some good.

So where does everyone sit with Piece by Piece 4.5 months in? I recently (maybe it’s due to all of the concert talk) started spinning this album quite a lot lately and these are my current favorites:
1. Good Goes The Bye 2. Let Your Tears Fall 3. Heartbeat Song 4. Take You High 5. Nostalgic 6. War Paint 7. In The Blue 8. Bad Reputation 9. Invincible 10. Piece By Piece 11. Second Wind 12. Dance With Me
I don’t dislike the ballads at all (Run, Run, Run, Someone & Tightrope) in fact they are among some of the highlights of this album but I guess with it being summer I’m just not really in the mood for them. I don’t dislike I Had a Dream either, but it’s just kind of “there” for me. It’s still a very solid album. Three weeks ago I would have ranked Heartbeat Song way lower but something about the summer warmth and this song just struck me again and it’s moved way up for me.

I still love the majority of this album. The only ones I skip all the time are Run Run Run, I Had a Dream, Warpaint, & LYTF
Hard to rank them, but here's how they're sitting with me at the moment:
Piece By Piece Second Wind Take You High Dance With Me Nostalgic Someone Good Goes The Bye Tightrope Heartbeat Song Invincible In The Blue Bad Reputation

Is anyone else surprised by the lack of RRR in the set? I realize it is a duet but could so easily be done solo. It also says a lot with regards to its single chances. For a while a lot of us assumed it would be a single and then we thought it might have to wait its turn with Trainor's duet being out first but I'd say the chances are pretty slim now. She's mentioned other songs as hopefully making it to single status and we all know this album isn't going 5 deep. The song isn't my favorite, it is dark and the end is way too loud and over the top but the Legend factor would have created some buzz.
