This is all so shocking! No1 has curred about Idol for years now, and artists never get sales boosts from the show any more, so for this to be happening for Kelly..it's just amazing. People are really connecting to the emotion in the song and her performance. Go Kelly!

A teary A Moment Like This performance is exactly what I wanted her to do, it'll be much more impactful than singing Piece by Piece. Remind them of your hits and how it all started! Wrong sis. So so so happy to see this happening. It would be just magical if RCA sent it to CHR immediately and made it into the hit it deserves to be, but as others said, an iTunes #1 and a second Hot 100 hit from the album will still make a very nice bookend to an underwhelming era that deserved so much more. Add it to the list of beautiful moments in a magnificent career so far.

I just opened iTunes and thought my eyes were deceiving me when I saw the single at #1 and album at #3 on the main chart! Completely deserving though; if only RCA would capitalize and send it to Pop radio ASAP just for the hell of it.

Still increasing 1 Kelly Clarkson - Piece By Piece 1.0000 1.0000 2 Rihanna - Work (feat. Drake) 0.6052 0.6647 AND Zayn is decreasing! Fifth Harmony is now up to #3 with dark green updates as well, but still losing ground on this! :'(

Wasn't there a post years back about someone's performance making grown men cry and making all sorts of ridiculous things happen? Kelly made that happen last night. :'( A teary A Moment Like This performance is exactly what I wanted her to do, it'll be much more impactful than singing Piece by Piece. Remind them of your hits and how it all started! Wrong sis. I know, I already admitted how I know nothing anymore. :( I'll wait for her tear-filled A Moment Like This performance to chart higher than this year's winner single on iTunes to have my moment.

From ew.com:
"Kelly Clarkson’s moving return to American Idol Thursday night had the entire audience in tears, and the singer is still reeling from the emotional response.
“I am still overwhelmed and in shock from last night. The response to ‘Piece By Piece’ has me in tears,” Clarkson tells EW in a statement. “To say last night was nostalgic would be an understatement. It was an unforgettable moment and to have my family and friends there with me made it even more magical.”

So none of those 35 million views will count? I know it is from Facebook but where is the video being hosted from? That is such a shame. I don't expect Kelly to get a #1 out of this but I would be thrilled with a top 10. I don't want those streams to be the difference.
Oh, and the radio edit is at #66 now so she is getting some sales from that.

She really snatched every wig, weave and hair piece last night. People are out here bald and crying from this.

Oh, and the radio edit is at #66 now so she is getting some sales from that. Facebook has gotten grief from advertisers and media companies because they goose their video views. Every time someone scrolls by a video, it autoplays, and counts as a view if the person doesn't pause it within 3 seconds.

Well, supposedly anytime someone scrolls through their feed and the video shows (automatically) for even 1 second it counts as a view. That's different from active viewing. I've also read that plays can't be reimbursed to individual accounts when it's through facebook.

I know it's highly unlikely, but it would be so rich if she broke her own Hot 100 record jump with this song.

Didn't I read she filmed a performance for the Idol finale? I'd think that would be "A Moment Like This."
"Piece By Piece" is a good track- but it's even better in stripped-down/ballad form. The regular version doesn't have the emotional wallop that last night's performance packed in spades.

I wonder if Kelly will put the stripped down version of Piece By Piece on her next record, just like she did with Beautiful Disaster. She never sang Beautiful Disaster on tour the way with was recorded on the album. She always sang it stripped down or acapella. She said she didn't like the production of it on the Thankful album. She's never sung Piece By Piece on tour the way it was recorded on the album, it's always been stripped down with just the piano. Maybe her next label/contract will let her do her songs the way she wants them to be heard. :)
