Kelly has an amazing voice, no wonder she's the original and only relevant American Idol winner. :coffee:

Carrie Underwood says hi :fan: Her album sales trump Kelly's and she continuously cranks out hits (albeit not as big as Kelly's biggest hits).

Only in the U.S. Kelly still wins with worldwide sales.

Yeah Carrie is amazing on her own lane but the only thing they have in common is winning AI, so I decided not to bring her up.

Pink flamingos always fascinated me.

Wow, the slayage. And she was familiar with the lyrics.  Does that mean she's a stan? I'd understand if she wad familiar with Summertime Sadness lyrics but she knew Off To The Races rather well and added her own twists, which makes me think she is confident singing the song because she's done so before. Maybe in the shower or something.

Why did she cover an "unknown" song tho

It was a fan request.

I think it's great that she does this. When fans asked Lana to sing Bel Air she simply said "no, the band doesn't know that" and she moved on. While Kelly covers one of her best songs and she slays it too :giveup:

Fans send in requests for cover songs before and during the tour. Kelly and her band learn a fan request a couple of days before and then perform it, and she moves on to the next fan choice for the next show. Kelly has done this for all of her shows as long as I can remember. She has covered everything from oldies to show tunes, jazz, country, folk, disco, boyband, etc. You name it, she's done it on tour. Kelly is confident singing this song because she has an excellent and highly versatile voice! The girl can sing anything!

I'm not surprised she could pull this off. Look where she got her start: on a show where contestants sing covers. Very well done, Kelly! :applause:

Just repeat to yourself, "It's just a show. I should really just relax."

Yup yup. She sang Valerie at my concert a couple of weeks ago.

Queen Kellegend, Duchess Of Live Covers strikes again. For the latest round of fan request karaoke, Kelly Clarkson took on Lana Del Rey’s “Off To The Races” during her show in Las Vegas over the weekend.

Not surprisingly, the fast-talking Born To Die track was a little less Lolita, a little less hip-hop in Clarkson’s hands. Check out the performance below, while pondering just how the hell she remembers the lyrics to all these one-off covers.
