If I was a professional singer and found out Kelly was doing a quick cover of my song I would be pissed.. lol She is so good. Of course it would be an honor but... She sings better than Most..

Although this is one of my favorite songs of all-time, I am still amazed after all of these years how she manages to infuse such a unique delivery into each and every song that she covers. The tone and texture, various βvoicesβ (chest, head, falsetto), and nuance into each facet seen in this cover is simply flawless and angelic.

How many performances does she film in one day because I knew she had the eye patch for what I thought was one day but maybe it's for a couple so I'm just curious.

It's criminal that we don't get full covers of some of the songs. Today's is an example of that. Just heavenly.

How many performances does she film in one day because I knew she had the eye patch for what I thought was one day but maybe it's for a couple so I'm just curious. She did the first week of shows with it, so 6 shows total. There should be one more that has to air. I'm totally here for that opening tomorrow. :) What still blows me away with the covers that she does is that she really doesn't rehearse them outside of one or two run throughs. Jessi has said she'll give Kelly a track that she and Jason have worked out to listen to while Kelly's in glam to familiarize herself with it and off they go. Then she just goes out there and does her thing. In that setting it would be so easy to just follow the original completely but they don't and just about all of them are Kelly-ized in some way. Now that's not to say some don't work, but the amount of them that do is crazy. ETA β Jason mentions how little sleep he's gotten lately between working on her album, the show and putting the BBMA performance together. And Kelly chimed in with "and recordings we're doing for other projects." He also said they've gotten over 200 people involved in the performance, so that call they put out a couple weeks ago must've been for this. She gave him some nice props at the beginning of the video too.

Can't wait for Kelly's opening. She has truly killed it the last two years whilst managing to represent as many genres as possible. What a talented, relatable, and geniune woman. America made no mistake choosing her.

"Biggest TV Show Opening ever." Big words Jason I'm excited. Edit: Aside from the opening, I hope Kelly has another performance too.

She gave me CHILLS. I think some of the mixing was a little off, but aside from that she killed it.

I could have done without Pentatonix but Sheila E was a great addition to her performance. Kelly never fails.

She is a trooper for fronting this show because it is an utter snoozefest. I hope she has a second performance coming up.

Itβs crazy how Kelly was literally the face of AI/Fox for years, then moved to ABC, then NBC. Queen of TV.

She dropped a lyric from a song she recently wrote for the album in this clip with Hoda. They were talking about how hard it is to make changes and how much easier it is to stay in your comfort zone but that's not really living.
"it's not living, but it'll do"

Hopefully some some of you will get to see the "higher love" performance before youtube takes it down...

Kelly's microphone was so damn low. Tbh, I noticed that for a LOT of her TV performances. Frustrating because the vocals were on fire.

Wonder where her Bruce Springsteen cover is? Might be another issue with song rights or they're holding off on posting it to let the performance from last night have time to permeate online since it was obviously a highlight.

The same thing happened with Secret Garden so I think it's for sure a rights/usage issue with Bruce.

They were talking about how hard it is to make changes and how much easier it is to stay in your comfort zone but that's not really living. "it's not living, but it'll do" It's really touching and reassuring that even successful people like Kelly and Hoda have second thoughts about their life trajectories sometimes. Can't wait to hear that new lyric in the context of the album.
