Wow #1 iTunes Canada, #5 Philippines, #11 Australia, #21 Philppines, #20 South Africa, #40 UK.
And she didn't win World Idol...
Seriously though, that performance did wonders worldwide. She just announced that she's back to still some more wigs.

About every three hours, I go to the iTunes store just so that I can see Piece by Piece in its rightful spot at the top of the chart. It's the little things.

Just crossed 3 million views on YouTube. I hope 1) this explodes throughout the rest of the tracking week and 2) at least half of its eventual tally comes from the US (for streaming total purposes of course) I want to see PBP in the top 10, so get ALL of the sales and streaming, Kelly!

Can't wait to buy the stripped down version. Wasn't someone just saying before this performance that Kelly has never gotten to have her I'm Not Dead moment? This could be it! And it couldn't be with a more perfect song. I've believed in this song from the first time I heard it and am so glad it's getting the recognition it deserves.
I hope that we can really restart the era, but I know that's probably wishful thinking. Can Run, Run, Run and/or Second Wind/Take Me High/Good Goes The Bye follow this? Kelly is so above material like Heartbeat Song and Invincible. Better material does already exist on this awesome album though!

This humble queen's impact. www.deseretnews.com/article/865648721/The-Clean-Cut-Kelly-Clarksons-emotional-American-Idol-performance-viewed-35-million-times.html?pg=allThe Clean Cut: Kelly Clarkson's emotional 'American Idol' performance viewed 35 million times
A YouTube video shows Kelly Clarkson singing her original song “Piece by Piece.” The video uploaded on the "American Idol" Facebook page has been viewed over 35 million times.
Members of the audience, judge Keith Urban and Clarkson herself cried during the performance.
“I’m pregnant, and it’s nostalgic, and I can’t believe it’s the last season,” Clarkson said after her performance.
She explained that she wrote the song when she was pregnant with her daughter. In the song, Clarkson gives a glimpse into her childhood and promises a better future for her daughter.
As a child, Clarkson did not have a relationship with her father. In an interview with CBS News, Clarkson talked about how her husband, Brandon Blackstock, inspired the song.
“My husband came into my life, and he’s the complete opposite of how my father was,” Clarkson told CBS News. “He was present. He wins for being around.”
Clarkson is now pregnant with her second child, a son.
On Facebook last night, Clarkson thanked “American Idol” for “such a beautiful beginning and a perfect ending.”

Imma need them to get that 'INVINCIBLE: NOW AVAILABLE' mess up outta that Twitter cover photo. Why must her social media team continue to be so underwhelming? Get in there, people.

"Piece By Piece" was always just okay to me (and the radio mix is awful), but that live performance was stellar. The song is so much better without all the unnecessary polish. That's how I feel about most of her material. She's so talented, but I feel like much of her material is overly polished. She's someone I can see really hitting their artistic peak when she's a little older and there's no need to pander to pop radio.

Ugh, I keep refreshing Kworb like every 10 minutes to see the iTunes update even though I clearly know it updates every couple of hours. Though I know to never count this woman out I just never thought I'd see her at No. 1 on iTunes again. Amazing to see nearly 15 years into her career.

That was me, and not to get ahead of ourselves, but this reaction is already far more than I ever expected to get out of her performance. I'm having flashbacks to 2007 when Fergie sang BGDC on a results show, and waking up seeing it #1 on iTunes the next day. I think that was the first legit example of a song that had literally 0 exposure (it wasn't yet a single) skyrocketing overnight after an iTunes performance. This is too much!!

Nothing beats that live performance, and I'm ecstatic that she's recording that version because I need it.
The Radio Mix always threw me, it's not terrible, it just doesn't work. The album version is superior. I've always loved the album version, the production's a little strong but it conveys a hopeful feeling that fits perfectly with the lyrics.

Just saw her tweet with the video of the performance and thanking Idol as a promoted tweet! They're paying something to promote it further. Very good sign.
Unless it was one of you putting up coins.

I'm surprised at all the hate for the radio mix. I saw it on Spotify and loved it after first listen, which made me buy it on iTunes. I don't remember having that reaction to the album version when I listened to it. Now that I've gone back and listened to the album version again, I appreciate it more, so I just bought it on iTunes as well.
But I think the radio mix would have a better chance of success if they were to send one of the two version to CHR.

I would not be shocked if it had a premiere on Ryan's show, with a phone call about the performance. Great way to tie the new version to the performance and launch the song as a "new" single.
I'd expect a tweet or something today or tomorrow if we're getting any confirmation at all though

Since Billboard is know for making rule changes on the fly aka "The Eagles" rule, the the "Whitney" rule, etc. Any chance for the "Kelly" rule aka Facebook streaming? Clearly this song has captured America with the sales of single(s) and album(s) to back it. It's too bad radio is so slow to respond. Seriously, what would CHR, AC and HAC have to lose by doing an instant add to rotation? It's clear the public is eating this up in massive way.

I don't think this has been posted yet. I love Keith Urban and how he was so blown away with her performance. This video is just Keith and not the same one as the interview with him and Harry.

I can't speak for everyone, but surely it's understandable that people who got into it as an emotional ballad would be surprised/disappointed to download the song and get a very produced song. Yaaaaas, that's the YouTube video crossed the 5 million mark! Apparently even these may not count because the video is categorized as "Entertainment" and not "Music."
