Oh man. Thank God I got this masterpiece of a CD and got to see her live ( at one of the best venues in the country, no less), especially Take You High and the stripped version of Piece By Piece, which reduced me to tears.
So, I guess I will join the album ranking posse, even though I feel like I have played this game several times before.

I doubt we're dealing with anything so dramatic as a career-ending issue. I think she has some serious vocal rest to do, but I'm sure being pregnant and middling album performance played at least some part in the decision to just cancel the rest of the tour. Keep Kelly healthy on all fronts, and hopefully in a position to get a career plan in action for 2016 and beyond.
Oh and:

4-5 could switch on the day...one is the infinitely more important, better project; the other is just a tighter finished project.

Kelly's duet with Ben Haenow is being released to digital retailers next Friday (10/8), but could be premiered via radio or something before then. “Second Hand Heart” was written by Kara DioGuardi and Robyn’s collaborators Johan Oscar Andreas Ekhe & Ulf Peter Lindstrom.

Well I'm certainly not mad about a new Kelly song even if it is a feature

Not thrilled that it's written by Kara but I will be optimistic.

Really looking forward to it. I watched Ben win X Factor last year and my Mum just reminded me that I said his gravelly voice would sound great next to Kelly. I don't get the flack a lot of people have been harping on about across the web; about the fact she's had to cancel her tour for vocal problems but can put out a new song, and perhaps help with promo (couple of live performances, especially on this year's X Factor live shows). You just want to slap your forehead in astonishment. The song's probably been recorded for a while, at least before any major vocal badness, and there's a massive difference from singing a couple performances (if that even happens) and singing every night for hours for months.
And, breath...
Overall, I'm looking forward to it. Hope it bags them both a nice UK number one. Hey, it might even pique extra interest in Piece by Piece if it does.

I'm liking the upbeat sound. Hope it's not as overproduced as it sounds. Why isn't it out yet!? Excited for the video because they'll both be able to bounce off one another rather than bounce around.

I can't see Kelly doing any promo for this. It would not look good even if it is only one song and not an entire concert night after night but her doctor ordered her on vocal rest. That does not mean you fly to Europe and sing, even just one song.

Does it sound like it could be a hit? I know it's just a clip but just curious. Can't listen to the clip because I'm at work damn it.

^To me it sounds like a hit, but as I get older I find I am more wrong than right about what might be a hit. I thought "Invincible" would be huge. Nuff said.

I'd describe it as a faster, more uplifting version of Up by Olly and Demi. It's not MLWSWY-wow. It's more 'I Want You'-nice. It cheers you up, but keeps you seated. Hit-worthy? After checking out his 1st single that went #1 in the UK -> YES. Worldwide ? Maybe. If his label pushes it enough. I thought "Invincible" would be huge. Nuff said. You are not alone..

First song that popped into my mind was I Forgive You, to be honest. Her voice sounds similar to the chorus.

Love love love that clip.
Definitely radio friendly, easy on the ears, with some hit potential.

are we expecting US radio to spin the new featured single? isnt he a UK XFactor winner? is this a full on duet or will kelly just be providing harmony like on prizefighter? im excited nonetheless.

They seem to use the word "featured" a lot and I have not seen it referred to as a duet. Kelly hopefully has one small verse she gets to sing herself but I think most of it will be her singing with him.

Invincible was covered on the voice during the blind auditions. www.youtube.com/watch?v=TLkChZ0RQVUThe studio version is the only thing available. I guess the segment was cut-off in the airing.

Haenow is an awesome singer, I hope this single breaks the US, he deserves it. So cool that she's on it.

I finally got around to buying this album today. I am in love with this album. It may have more ballads than her previous, but it is beautiful. "Tightrope" and "Piece By Piece" are easily my favorite songs on the album. I am not all the way through it, but so far...so good.
