haha, way to turn a nice little anecdote around. Was more to say how amazing she looks in that video. On point. Like a classic beauty.

[/img] [/img][/quote] I know, right! The incredible thing about that "Shelter" performance was that Kelly had pneumonia at the time and got out of her sick bed to honor her commitment to the telethon. You can hear she's laboring when she breathes but she still sounds wonderful.[/quote] That's what I love about her voice. She still manages to find a way to sound incredible even when she's nowhere near her best. I think her being sick only added to the effect of the song. Can't imagine it sounding any other way. Let's take it to church for just a second....

I love Kelly and Fantasia together. I think their voices compliment each other.
here's another performance from that Christmas special. To me it proves why Kelly, Ruben and Fantasia won their season of AI.

As much as I love Kelly's music, it's her covers that usually populate her "best performance" lists. She treats each song with lots of care.
One of her best covers.
You can add her three latest covers to ever-growing list.

Kelly is great with "Blue Christmas", but I still prefer Porky Pig's cover.
That's the Looney Tunes cartoon character, for anyone who wants to make a joke.

I love this soulful rendition of her own song 'The Trouble With Love Is' from a few months ago while in Hong Kong (I like it as much as that Ryan Seacrest Show performance which had those ridiculous A5+ belts):

Jill is a large woman but lets all be honest here- Kelly is pretty big herself. Maybe 10-20 pounds. Just because someone is bigger than her doesn't mean that she isn't big herself. . But I don't see it as much of an issue health wise, but if she gets to be as big as Jill, then it'll be a big problem. That's all I meant. Thank you, that is what I meant as well. Oh, I am lovin all these videos!! It is amazing to hear how much her voice has grown and gotten stronger over these years! Shelter....my top 3 all time favorite Kelly song, recorded or live! Her voice with Ray's lyrics....damn. I would love to see them collaborate on something...he is just amazing.

I really don`t get her album sales. Already Gone is a big hit and the album is still dropping. So sad. I`m not so sure she`s selling 1 mil anymore.

She'll sell 1 million eventually. Sales should definitely pick up a little bit during the next few weeks. Hopefully at the minimum we'll see her get to 10,000 for a week. The good thing is that there's no way this project won't be receiving another single. She's touring for the first half of next year so they need SOMETHING out. Whatever that single may be will more than likely help keep sales up, even if they are only 2,000-3,000 a week. It might take a while, but 1 million will more than likely happen.

If she keeps this pace, she`ll sell 1 million in 2015. Hopefully the AMAs had some effect and she can go from there to the holidays bump.

I loved when Kelly covered Patty Griffin's "No Bad News" at the final show of the My December Tour. I don't think anyone got full video of it, but here's a little movie someone made up using Dirty Little Secret, and No Bad News. I think it's hilarious..lol. jmo! if above ^ doesn't work for you, this will.. www.youtube.com/watch?v=JONZ_VzClec

it's funny, isn't it. it's even funnier to listen to Clive justify why he doesn't want Kelly to write. There's a link to vijdeo response right underneath the above video and it's an interview Clive did about her. My impression of him from that interview...he's an a$$ (or maybe just senile because he makes no sense).

I really hope some holiday season love kicks in soon. Its already started elsewhere - check out hitsdailydouble - some major numbers are starting and there is no reason to see that dying down for the next four weeks. Ride that wave Kelly!

Is there really that much of a difference lol? Either way, 755K sold on three top 10 singles is not that impressive, even with the market the way it is. She just doesn't have the same pull anymore. It shows in her digital downloads and touring figures as well. I think a lot of it is an image thing, because it's certainly not the music or her voice (which is the best it has ever been since 2002). I guess we'll know for sure when the next album drops.

I would have bought Already Gone, but I would need another really good single to make me buy the album, but that's just me.

Unfortunately, it's definitely looking like her image is the central cause. People still showed lots of interest in MLWSWY, so we'll see what happens with album 5.

More people bought MLWSWY because it was released before the album was available. That's why a first single always sells better. Look at how Never Again sold, compared to its lack of longetivity on airplay. MLWSWY is also an extremely catchy pop song. Max Martin is a pop factory for a reason.

If I was't a fan, My Life would've made me check clips, and maybe but the album, I'd of skipped on IDNHU, and AG would've sealed the deal for me if I hadn't already bought it.

My Life started to wear off for me, so if I wasn't a fan I don't believe that song would've done anything for me. I kind of think My Life and SUBG are both overrated, but they are both great live.
