Tegan and Sara tweeted: 10:52AM: Ummmmmm. We love @kellyclarkson and this cover she did of Closer for her show is so spectacular. How surreal is this??!!
12:11PM: This felt worthy of a second post. DAMN it's cool to hear someone with a next-level-kick-ass-for-real-legit singing voice absolutely SLAYING one of our songs. Thanks @kellyclarkson for a huge jolt of joy on this meh Thursday.

Forgot "Closer" was a Greg Kurstin production. No wonder she sounds like a natural on it!

As a lawyer, I'm shook anyone allowed her to have an oral agreement for something as critical to her career as the commission rates owed to management. Going to be messssssy. Love the idea of her being managed by a major talent agency though. Although FWIW, clearly Blackstock did a great job since she's currently as successful as ever. I have trouble believing that someone of Kelly's size and popularity would ever have an oral agreement to anything. Like, everything is probably locked and loaded into a formal contract. I hope this isn't the first sign of things getting ugly and I also hope this doesn't turn into a money grab from her husband and his family. On another note, her voice is just sublime.

I wouldn't be mad at all if she cut a studio version of "Closer" and released it as a single from the new album.

Maybe it’s a combo of the sound and the fact that the producer is someone she has worked extensively with. But I would love for her to record this song or even better, have them write for her.

I keep coming back to this one today, it ticked off so many boxes for me. Next week Mon – My Future - Billie Eilish Tue – First Cut Is the Deepest - Sheryl Crow Wed – Ring of Fire - Johnny Cash Thu – Don't Start Now - Dua Lipa Fri – I Can't Make You Love Me - Bonnie Raitt She's done FCITD and ICMYLM before during the AIEW tour vip preshow thing and the latter one was also included on first Smoakstack EP.

Update! While we wait for that, she's also releasing a couple Christmas songs this year. She wrote a song that's going to be a duet with Brett Eldredge and the other is a cover that she didn't say what it was yet. 10/28 - "Under The Mistletoe" (feat. Brett Eldredge) 11/13 - "All I Want For Christmas Is You"

So WIR is her favorite album she’s made... hope that means we get another one in the near future! youtu.be/LPoLrn7GdFAAlso interesting that she keeps referring to Brandon as her husband. Wonder if it’s a habit or if it’s just less complicated for her right now.

It's wild how much I dislike that AIWFCIY song, but if anyone can save it, it's Kelly. I do wish she'd just push Every Christmas, finally, if she wants a bluesy christmas moment since that song (I just got chills) has become one of my favorite part of the holidays (chills just intensified) over the last few years.

I have been waiting and waiting for the moment that Every Christmas gets its moment. It is truly one of the best songs she has ever recorded.

Literally all of her original Christmas songs deserve their moments. WIR, UTT, EC, WD, and CE are actually five of the best songs of her career. (4 Carats is cute, but eh.) I could actually see any of those blowing up and becoming Christmas classics. I wish they would've pushed one per holiday season after the initial release.

We should start a petition to get the "(Brandon's Song)" removed from Winter Dreams. I always thought that was kinda tacky honestly. In a way I also think it would be a nice middle finger to him, given all the legal drama going on with them.

Support her by watching her tv show and buying her music.
