Intriguing title but I'm on the fence about it. It is irrelevant though until we start hearing the songs.
One thing that does worry me is Kelly doesn't seem to have many if any writing credits on this album. I know this was to be expected after MD but it is disappointing that is the case :(

I'm not happy that Kelly doesn't have writing credits, either.
But I suspect that the people like me who have a concern about that were people who bought and liked "My December." Unfortunately, in terms of commercial success, most music fans in Kelly's genre appear not to care about that. They voted with their dollars, not only not buying the album as opposed to "Breakaway," but also not buying concert tickets, which led to the cancelled arena tour. Even the revamped theater tour did not sell out at every venue.
Kelly is pretty much doing what she said she was going to do: If the suits gave her "My December", she'd totally play ball with them on the next album. Sure, the suits gave her "My December" while throwing mud all over it, but she still got it.
"Masquerade" is a very interesting title, if the songs match it at all. Kelly may be acting in an unfamiliar role as a pop tart about to "Suck" a heart-shaped lollipop -- with her mouth open and her tongue visible, but it's acting. Yep, her life would "Suck" without the guy in the song, I guess.
Is she still the Kelly Clarkson who wears a half glove on her hand and performs barefoot at concerts? Or is she just another Rihanna, Katy Perry or Gwen Stefani?

I hope none of the Katy Perry tracks make the album if I am honest. Can you imagine how much people will slag her off for it? People are already saying the single is very Katy Perry. Plus I don't like that Kelly doesn't have any writing credits on those tracks. That's the first time I've heard that MLWSWY sounds like a Katy Perry song. Also, we don't know if the songs we know about even made the album, other than MLWSWY. I did talk to a couple of Kelly's bandmates and they told me there would be songs written by Kelly on the album, so that made me happy.

I, too, absolutely LOVE the title of the new record, because it has multiple interpretations. I wonder if there will be a track titled 'Masquerade' or if it will be themed record much like 'My December' was.... Interesting evolution: 'Thankful' 'Breakaway' 'My December' 'Masquerade' :) I have to say that as much as I am still rather put off by the title of the first single as we have discussed ad nauseum, I would be even more irritated if both of the previously recorded Katy Perry tracks 'Hook Up' and 'Long Shot' make the record unless the lyrics are MASSIVELY changed. I am a bit biased because I think Katy has a horrid voice as well which makes me despise the tracks even more. Houster, your post is very much how I view this era, but I have to suppress my natural knee-jerk reaction to the era as we all should because, we still have not heard one iota of a confirmed track from this record, save a blurry backtrack to 'Life Would Suck' from that Clive/Maher/Luke video clip. This thought naturally leads me to that quote from Simon Cowell about Kelly: "The great thing about Kelly is......No messing around with this girl, she makes up her own mind what she's going to do". www.youtube.com/watch?v=izbb0EhtBv4. Kelly is so strong-minded that she would not record something that she believes is not right for her and that more importantly, she would not enjoy performing for her fans live on stage, since touring and performing is why she went into this business...This era has been uber-intriguing and the addition of the confirmed title makes it even more mystifying that I can not wait for the suspected radio or internet leak this week !!!!!!!!! On a much, much lighter note, I have learned that there might be a Kelly Clarkson appearance today at Second Chance, a fundraiser for the homeless in Beverly Hills, CA. Hopefully we might get some pictures of the girl who seems to be in hiding before the "big reveal" this or next week :)

American Idol Secrets From Simon Cowell: Kelly Clarkson and Kara DioGuardi-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- By Ginger Marks Jan 3, 2009 American Idol's toughest judge is delivering the inside scoop of the show and on the big changes and exciting new twists in store for the hit show's eighth season, a new report from Star Magazine details. Simon Cowell recently said that he believes that Kelly Clarkson was the most talented idol winner ever (wait - did he really say Kelly Clarkson?) and now he has spoke to Star Magazine about some of the changes to get people back to the show. American Idol's Kara DioGuardi There's a new judge! Songwriter and producer Kara DioGuardi gets a seat at the judges' table for Idol's eighth season. And the report notes that industry veteran, who has worked with Hilary Duff and Celine Dion as well a Idol alum Kelly Clarkson and Carrie Underwood, is up for the challenge. *** "Kara has written hit songs and is not snobby about this kind of music," Simon Cowell tells Star. "I have no idea if this is a good idea, but I support trying new things. That's the delicious thrill of making reality TV." Related - Wild Vegas New Years (Photos) Plus Idol's Kara DioGuardi News And Than means a new voting process! Adding a fourth judge has one unintended consequence - Simon becomes the tiebreaker, the report from Star notes. That should lead to some fireworks and the other judges are not pleased. "I love that they hate it!" Simon tells Star. "At one of the auditions, a girl walks in wearing a bikini; and since I had the casting vote, you can see her again." www.nationalledger.com/artman/publish/article_272624431.shtml

awesome cover. awesome album title. dang, i can't even begin to explain how excited i am for this!
btw - i kinda like the timing of this album. Kara DioGuardi worked with Kelly before, so it shouldn't be a surprise if Kelly makes multiple appearances in AI this year.

I really like all the different styles of songs we're hearing about. I like Why You Wanna Bring Me Down, a lot, I think it's my favorite of the two, but Kelly would sound incredible on the chorus Of All I Ever Want.

Sadly, I don't think that's going to happen this time. :( I have a feeling we'll get 3 at the most written by Kelly.

Unfortunately, I agree. :( I remember a quote from the "My December" era where Kelly said that she'll do what the label asks for for the next project. I still have a tiny hope, though. I mean, "Breakaway" was so successful ---- and she wrote half of the songs from that album!

It doesn't bother me one bit whether or not Kelly wrote on the album. I already know she's a talented songwriter. She doesn't have to write every single song so that it's "good" nor I do think less of her if she didn't.

I'm not saying that... what I'm saying is: Kelly likes to write! and if she didn't write anything on this album, it shows that she was scared and feeling insecure because of what Clives did to her. I'm sure that she'll write at least 3 songs on this cd. I just love Kelly's lyrics.

I really love the chorus of 'All I Ever Wanted' especially because of my vision of Kelly's voice on it. 'Why You Wannna Bring Me Down' could be a good song if reworked, IMO. If I could only have two (from the choice of four songs between Aranda and Katy Perry demos), I would much, much rather have the Aranda ones. That being said, these demos/songs are usually majourly reworked, so who knows....

Umm....do you not think that it might show that Kelly is keeping her word for singing on tracks that the she and RCA agree on ??? Since we know no official final tracklisting, all this talk if presumptive (but fun :) ). That being said, I would not be surprised if Kelly changes words around or makes them fit her on several of the tracks that she sings on, much like she did with 'Behind These Hazel Eyes'.... Do I need to remind that (at 0:50): www.youtube.com/watch?v=izbb0EhtBv4 . Haha, I just made it my signature so I don't have to repeat myself ;)

I'm not so crazy about all the rumored songs that we've heard so far. I just need to hear Kelly's voice on them in order to properly judge them. The 2 we got today are too rock for my taste and for Hook Up and Long Shot, I can't stand Katy Perry's voice so I thought they sounded terrible. ![:-X](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/lipssealed.png) I haven't heard Save You, so idk. Despite this, I still have a lot of faith in this album, she's worked with a lot of great people and I know the material will reflect that.
