Well is she or the label buzzing about it? To expect the media to start talking about it without the artist/label making a big deal about it, rarely ever happens.

I guess it depends on interpretation of major media coverage? If you mean it should be big news, then that would have to be something they build up to and get the media train rolling.

The thing with Breakaway is that so many people still draw back to one particular song that defined that era (SUBG), and whatever attention was going to be given to SUBG has mostly already been given.
The Confessions ten-year anniversary rolled by with relatively little fanfare as well, and for that matter Mariah has had tons of landmark anniversaries by now but even with her own mentions attention doesn't linger on them for more than a few days at most...publications mention these things in passing, as a nostalgic bit, but a virtual parade of celebration is a bit out of the norm unless you specifically plan around it (like how Kelly's GH coincided with the ten year anniversary of winning Idol/AMLT). But then, like Coco said, I suppose it depends on what one's interpretation of 'major' coverage is. I expect some Breakaway mentions here and there, not much more.

When I said no one was buzzing about it, I wasn't expecting a Rolling Stone spread or anything, I just meant I hadn't seen a thing on Twitter/no one brought it up on here.
However, when it comes to smaller web publications, I would be surprised if the anniversary was overlooked tomorrow. I mean I saw at least two extensive pieces about the 10th anniversary of a fucking Hilary Duff album last year....

Oh god, I hope that is true!! If people in the biz are hearing it, then that definitely lends itself to a very early 2015 release for the single and probably album in March? Or it can just be another "Let Me Down"-type fiasco.

Nothing about 'Let Me Down' is a fiasco Not the song itself, I'm referring to the rumor that "Let Me Down" was the lead single in July 2011 when a random radio station started promoting it and even WHTZ reported it. Then we waited until September to get MKIA

Not to restart Stronger-era reconstruction but I REALLY just cannot believe still that LMD wasn't a single (and the lead, at that!!). I remember playing that radio rip driving to work on hot July mornings, with Kelly just SANGING the life out of that bridge, thinking "she's here to dominate"

I also post that song every fall on Twitter/FB, reminding everyone that their fav will always and forever be a lesser to the Queen. She drops that mic, and then sets it on fire.

I was hoping for Dark Side as the lead single from Stronger. Dark Side, Stronger, Let Me Down.
All are different from each other, but still huge songs.

^Ooh, DS/Stronger/LMD would have been such a fantastic string of singles! It took me forever to come around to MKIA so I sometimes still think to myself, 'what if the singles had been this instead of that?' I try not to say that out loud much though, because the era went so well regardless that there is not a lot to complain about, all things considered. Am I the only one who took kmbgs' post as being sarcastic? Lmao thank you you so rarely do sarcasm, I honestly wouldn't have guessed. No shade, I'm just too conditioned from the sarcastic tones we get from other posters I guess *shrug*

I wonder if we'll get any old/leaked stuff here--she mentioned a while back that things they had recorded for Stronger were being considered for this album. I still hold out an unnecessary and unrelenting hope that "Don't Ever Give Up On Me" sees both the light of day and an orchestra.
As for Stronger, I think the single choices could have gone about 27 different ways, because when you're working with only one sure-fire hit and a bunch of could-do-its and almost-rans, there are just a lot of possibilities with merit. It's hard for me to side against MKIA at this point given how well the single did eventually and its country remix, but neither one of those was so great that other choices are fun to speculate.

I even thought about 'Honestly' being single #1 - given that Kelly didn't want to lose her voice with that song - it doesn't matter anyway. I just hate that the world still doesn't know how versatile Kelly is and well Kelly/RCA don't do a lot to change that IMO! Recently I played 'Irvine' to a friend of who only knew some of her singles - she couldn't believe it was her and got goosebumps !
On a side note - Kelly has finally reached 1 million YouTube subscribers, she has over 16 million Facebook likes and nearly 10 million Twitter followers !

Also Kelly got a bit of coverage on Billboard: www.billboard.com/articles/columns/chart-beat/6334705/chart-highlights-kelly-clarkson-seth-macfarlane-meghan-trainor?utm_source=twitterAC: \\Debut No. 11 "Wrapped In Red" Kelly Clarkson Artists add their annual holiday decorations to the Adult Contemporary chart, led by Clarkson's debut at No. 11 with "Wrapped in Red."

I love how the press conference banner says "the first coming to Vietnam." Like she's Jesus or something.
Also, I assume by re-release, she just means Wrapped In Red is getting a second push? As opposed to reissuing with new tracks (which we'd probably have heard about by now)?
