If it's like "People Like Us", I'm here for it. Either way I'm hear for it. I love Kelly.

Whenever this ends up being released, I'll be here to welcome it with open arms. Can't wait.

^^ Ugh, I hope the new single is nothing like 'People Like Us'.
I'm not a huge fan of Kelly's, but I always look forward to new material from her. Every one of her lead singles (bar 'Mr. Know It All', which was decent at best) has been ace.

Catch My Breath is my fav single from her. Definitely hope it's more along those lines vs. People Like Us, which is recycled and dated.

Didn't care for "Catch My Breath" and hated "People Like Us"... But I'm still ready for this.

MR. Know It All and Catch My Breath are two of my least favorite Kelly songs in general so I hope the single is better than that. However, even if I don't like the lead single I always love her cds so I am not too worried!

I just mentioned People Like Us cause I hear it everyday at work lol. Overall, I think Catch My Breath and PLS were more dance-ish, but her voice still shined.

This thread is too early and I'm mad that I didn't start it.
I hope this is nothing like PLU, if it is I'd vomit. But Kelly is smarter than that. Catch My Breath was/is/will always be perfect.
Anyway this will slay, rip ur favs, vocal chameleon, etc.

Hopefully she scores another hit ala WDKY. I have liked all her singles with the exception of Sober, and MKIA was ok. So really looking forward to this.

I'm always ready for new material from Kelly. I wasn't that big of a fan of "People Like Us" but "Catch My Breath" was excellent. I'm hoping for success just like "Stronger" had.

I think the source could be way off. Maybe they got a scoop on the release date but I think Jan 5th is a horrible time to drop a single. No one is going to be paying attention. Also, the only description offered up is that it is "pure pop." Well, ok then. That is a pretty safe bet considering that she releases her singles to Pop and has had plenty of pure pop singles since her more pop/rock days. Also, "pure pop" is so subjective, it could mean one thing to one person and something completely different to someone else. I just don't put too much stock into it. I do think a single is coming but I was thinking more late January to early February. So soon after Christmas and New Years seems like a great way to get completely lost in all the madness that is occurring that time of year. A good single would still make it but why risk it?

Should we move this thread exclusively to Hot AC? I don't understand the question, if my memory doesn't fail Kelly had a big number one on pop last era

I didn't like either of the Chapter 1 singles but both Mr. Know It All and Stronger are among my favorite Kelly singles. I'm ready for a new direction for her though. Btw has she completely given up on the idea of going country? I remember reading that she thought of putting out a country EP before another full album but judging by her country single's performance I wouldn't be surprised if she scrapped the whole country thing.

If she releases on the 5th (which seems too soon, and an odd time to drop a lead single), it's going to be a long year for all the other favs to go without their wigs.

Her last two lead singles, Catch My Breath and Underneath The Tree, are her best lead singles ever, so I have high expectations. My hopes for this are for a strong, big melody and that it isn't a retread of her past material.

My hopes for this are for a strong, big melody and that it isn't a retread of her past material. All the original songs on Wrapped in Red aren't just amazing Christmas songs, they're amazing Pop songs (that happen to be about Christmas). They're easily the best across-the-board songs she's written. The lyrics, music, performance, all of it just syncs and it's magical. If they caught that lightning in a bottle again (Kurstin was involved with this album for sure), then she could turn in some truly outstanding work this time.

Can't wait! Hoping she comes over to promote in the UK, which she sadly never got to do with her Xmas album (because of the pregnancy).

I would looove for something in between Stronger and Breakaway. I know that's not going to happen.

Someone on KCE said they heard from a friend in Australia, that works at a radio station, that they heard January 5th as well.

Since we're ranking her lead singles...
1. "My Life Would Suck Without You" - So bouncy, nostalgic, and smile-inducing. Triumphantly suggests "Kelly's back, bitches." 2. "Never Again" - Amazing energy. You can feel her anguish. My go-to jam when I'm pissed. 3. "Underneath The Tree" - I hate Christmas music, but I love this. Already a modern Christmas classic. 4. "Miss Independent" - Great song that she slays live. The original production is dated as hell though. 5. "Breakaway" - Her best lead lyrically and most relatable. I've just heard it too many damn times (Princess Diaries 2 trailer, anyone?). 6. "Catch My Breath" - Either a total hit or miss for me depending on my mood. It just doesn't work as well as her other singles, and I've never figured out why. 7. "Mr. Know It All" - Meh. Should've been "Let Me Down." #stillbitter
