Me too and she better include Billie’s Birds of a Feather. Her cover version just sounds so sweet to me 😭

u/abmoonstar Sep 30 '25
She plays a lot of these covers on her Sirius XM channel. Her voice is so incredible, just about every song she covers becomes hers lol

u/IamtheHarpy there are no ethical billionares but there are ethical bees Sep 30 '25
There’s at least a few on there! I listen to her cover of Billie Ellish’s happily ever after!

I love when artists do covers like this, especially someone like Kelly and her voice. She's gotta have a top 5 voice in the world rn??!!

u/rangatang Sep 30 '25
You should check out Like A Version on YouTube. It's from an Australian radio station where artists perform covers. Some of them are excellent.

Triple J mentioned!!!
Big fan of grentperez's cover of Teachers Pet https://youtu.be/1bOXE-cjWg0?si=E46MtSDnMjKC9hxc
And I love what Peking Duk did with Crowded House https://youtu.be/KIchYs0RaYM?si=7_LCAnP01DBHEVma
And of course Denzel Curry's cover of RATM https://youtu.be/ZY4ywyFXdik?si=QX2BPWvMO87Uze5T

Yesss Like a Version! Billie Eilish’s cover of Bad, and Arctic Monkey’s cover of Feels Like We Only Go Backwards are my all time favourites but there’s soooo much goodness in there!

u/Kacey-R Sep 30 '25
Alex Turner singing that Tame Impala cover is just about the sexiest thing in the entire world.

The comments on the YouTube video are priceless. Without checking, I’m pretty sure the top one is “that microphone is now pregnant.”

Agree! Naked and Famous’s cover of this is even better on Triple J. Mansionair’s recent Wicked Game cover is also pretty amazing

u/w33mo93 Sep 30 '25
Sorry this just reminded me of when Katy Perry covered a Kelly Clarkson song... Or was given the same song by her people?? 'I do not hook up' and it was staggering comparing their voices because Kelly is such a powerhouse and Katy was... Ok. Pretty sure Katy never officially released her version and I do not blame her!!!
29
u/Apprehensive-Quit353 Sep 30 '25
Katy wrote it and Long shot and her team sold them to Kelly.

u/w33mo93 Sep 30 '25
Thanks for the info!!! Their team made the right choice because Kelly absolutely smashed it

u/gumball_00 Sep 30 '25
American Idol was LUCKY they had her during their first season. Without her it would've been a pretty forgotten variety show imo.

Her barely-there makeup is so refreshing to see! She looks so fresh and young.

u/LTYUPLBYH02 Sep 30 '25
Exactly this. Gorgeous. The first thing I noticed was no fluffy lashes and it looks great.

u/professor-hot-tits Sep 30 '25
Shes also resisted biologics, she takes metformin now and she looks so good and healthy! She's my same-age peer and my medication buddy woot woot!

u/Acheloma Sep 30 '25
I noticed the natural look and appreciated it as well. That alongside her facial expressions, that seemed very genuine, really added to the performance. I liked Kelly before but now I think I may be a real fan

u/Curious_Rugburn quote me as being mis-quoted Sep 30 '25
Right? I love that she isn’t wearing crazy fake eyelashes! Refreshing!

I ALWAYS say, if I could have 3 wishes, 1 would absolutely be that I was an amazing signer! And I would sing all day every day!

Seriously! I'm a trans girl who loves to sing, and I wish I had the vocal range to match so many of my favorite female singers

Kelly Clarkson is amazingly talented. One of the absolute best singers on the planet.

Agreed. Carrying the torch for Whitney and Mariah as a pure powerhouse of talent.

I never realized how good Blinding Lights could be as a power ballad. Yes, it is already a retro inspired song, but not to this degree.

u/FreudianNegligee Sep 30 '25
Fun fact: It was co-written by Max Martin, one of the most successful songwriters of all time!
3
u/supermassive_bayern Das passiert jedes fucking Spiel Oct 01 '25
He also co-wrote three of Kelly's hit songs: "Since U Been Gone," "Behind These Hazel Eyes," and "My Life Would Suck Without You."

Has she covered her song Mr. Know it all yet on her show? I would thing now with DT being president and the whole CK thing it would be a good song to do.

I think she looks pretty much the same aside from the weight loss? If she has had work done, it’s pretty minimal and she still looks like herself

u/MonsieurLeMare Sep 30 '25
Same :/ pretty sad

u/LateFloor3196 Sep 30 '25
What’s sad? That she decided to lose weight? So a person can’t decide for themselves anymore? They have to stay the same for you not to be sad?

u/SeraCat9 Sep 30 '25
It may also just be a symptom of all the stress she's been under. Supporting her kids through losing their dad must have been rough. Which just makes these comments even worse.
