I have a feeling Tracy Chapman is flattered and impressed with this cover. Kelly sang the crap out of it.
Wow...just wow!
You can find too many styles of loud singing nowadays. Sometimes, it ruins the song. I'm still inpressed with TC, the original, too.
1111+
LOL
I mean, it’s a country/folk/blues song so if anyone could do it justice, it would be someone from the south rockin that Southern twang. PUT SUMMA DAT STANK ON IT KELLY!!! 🙌🏾🖤👑
I would absolutely love hearing her do a BB King cover.
So many reasons to love Kelly Clarkson
Asia Ami Thanks *InstaPhamous* for the fast followers
So many chins to love.
Om Nomsky how many do you have ?
Om Nomsky Really..Wow that's a bright comment. I'm sure you are model gorgeous as well to be throwing out comments like that to insainely talented people like that...yeah
Green Raver ur so dumb
This lady can sing ANYTHING. She is amazing. What a talent. More Kelly Clarkson!!! Looking good, girl...and sounding better than ever.
She has such a gift and I love this return to a little more soul. Thanks Kelly. No other winner can switch it up like she can.
Bet she cant sing "take on me"f by A-HA
Wolf Man Lyken who gives a toss Wolf man..a-ha is crap anyway lmfao
Keith Bangs A-HA is a great band, respect them......( are you respecting them yet?)lol
Way to go! WE WANT THAT KELLY! She won American Idol by singing Blues, R&B, Soul, Jazz...That's what she should sing! Now, don't get me wrong! I love her songs, and her pop stuff. BUT SHE WAS MEANT TO SING THAT! Her tone is GOLD and pop stuff just can't explore that. PLEASE DO MORE R&B STUFF KELLY! Few people in the history can reach your level on that area!
I hope she will do an blues album in 2016. xxxooo
Shawn Williams I wish she would too, but I think the country album is coming next. She's been saying she nearly has one completed.
Johnny Boy I TOTALLY agree! She sounded at ease like that was her HOME. Ya know? It was so natural. She just has an amazing voice and can sing anything but something about RNB, blues that just touches my heart.
she did the R&B stuff because she was contractually obligated to. She prefers anthemic pop.
***** She loves anthems, but she recently said that she'd love to make an R&B/pop album in the future, something reminiscent of 'The Trouble With Love Is.'
For one this is a classic song. Tracy will forever be the epitome. I just feel like Kelly walked in here on her way to lunch and said “yes I got y’all” and left. Soul is a genre that not many can acquire. She is one who has mastered it. Timeless artists x Tracy and Kelly in my opinion.
love both versions. both are tremendously talented women.
She puts her heart into it, great job Kelly!
yes!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just AMAZING!!! She literally OWNS every cover she sings, no matter the genre, no matter how iconic the original.
This is just another example of how amazing and timeless this record will always be. Tracy wrote a great song and she sings the hell out of it. The fact that every genre has covered this song from the Blues to Metal is a testament to this classic!
She is so good! She can sing anything. God, what a gift, to be able to sing like that.
Beast
I wrote Kelly Clarkson off as your average pop singer until I heard her singing this song. Very thankful that Tracey Chapman allowed this to take place not that Miss Chapman needed it but this compliments her original
OMG!! The girl got SOUL!! Go on with ur bad self!!! 1st time ever!! Hearing Kelly C sing!!! Bad A**!! TY girl!!!
Great performance by everyone!
Kelly is flawless on the vocal, the Acoustic guitarist was impressive, and the rest of the band made it happen.
So, if you don't like the way Kelly looks, wait until you deal with some adversity in your own life before criticizing others.
I think she is beautiful and has a heart of gold! There are so many phony balonies in the music business, especially the uber successful. She has class and she can sing!
I was seriously late to the party hearing this song from TC. Became an instant ear worm. This version is amazing, too. Both different tones and styles and both do it justice. 🫶🏻👌🏻
I love this version and I love Kelly. I also love the original and Tracy. That's how the the comments should be going, period.
GORGEOUS! Kelly keeps getting more and more beautiful with each passing day.
She sang that PERFECTLY.
Nahhh.. Its perfect.. And polished yet u feel her soul
Oh Kelly! There ya go again girl...givin' me the chills with your blues! Love it. Woo!
I have really learned to respect this girl...she's cool and down to earth on the Voice, and I knew she could sing but, OMG! She's sooo good at the blues right? Love you KC
This was incredible but Tracy wrote and sang give me one reason with conviction and passion. Anytime Tracy sings my heart feels her pain. her raw grittiness.. etc. Tracy is a humanitarian and it shows in her music/voice, and Kelly is just a powerhouse pop singer Kelly doesn’t invoke the same feelings in me as Tracy does, and always has. That being said Kelly really can sing ANYTHING though so I’m definitely not denying that.
Cormack IV For the original artist damn right :)
as a old fan of tracy chapman from the fast car days i have always wanted to hear kelly clarkson doing one of her songs and i was very happy with the results, it may not be as good as Tracys version but keep in mind just how long she has been putting out songs, i look forward to hearing kelly do more music like this in the years to come as she grows as a musician.
Such amazing vocal range and vocal skills. Still one of the best singers of our generation and still one of the most down to earth, genuine and kind performers in the industry.
She's got the grit!...and she's got the grace! Damn that woman can sing!
I met Kelly Clarkson and she's really not big at all. She's actually very normal. And super sweet and by far the best hugger everrrr! ❤️if you ever get a chance to meet her, don't pass it up!
You got to meet her? So jealous!
She is such an extraordinary vocalist. People can say what they want about comparisons, but from a technical perspective this was exceptional. She brings so much to bear as a singer, in terms of ability and emotion. She really is peerless.
Extremely talented in whatever she sings! You go girl!
This version of the song brought me to tears in a good way, it's full of soul, amazing music
Kelly has such a meaningful voice with such soul. Her talent is undeniable. This is a great song for her. She's able to really make sense of the lyrics and bring a personal aspect to it. Bravo!
The only song that you don’t need to add or adjust anything it’s perfect just the way Tracy wrote it excellent soul feeling song
Wow! That was amazing. One of my favourite Chapman songs and Kelly nailed it. Well done!!!
Wow really was impressed by the entire way she flipped Tracy's song and let it become not only her song but also the reason that would make me stay just so I could hear her sing some more
Why do people even have to compare it to the original? It's like can't we just enjoy both versions? I hate the internet sometimes.
Exactly. And whatever happened to T. Chapman?
EMily AdaMs Mauled to death by tigers, I believe. Very tragic.
JaximusDecimus1 lmao^
EMily AdaMs Tracy Chapman continues to be awesome; performing, collaborating, giving time and money to humanitarian efforts. She's a different kind of artist than Kelly Clarkson. But, I agree that it's not necessary to diminish one in order to support the other. They're both amazing.
Derrick Dobson cause we fucking felt like comparing it so STFU
Love this cover. Kelly Clarkson, in my humble opinion, is the pinnacle of American Idol success. They got it right the first time out and should have left it at that. Way to go with this cover. as good as, if not better, than the original.
Beautiful singer, beautiful voice, beautiful song, all beautifully done!! I think you can see where I’m going here!!
Superb. Kelly you deserve ALL the recognition tat you get, plus some more. Absolutely correct, here.
Something about her voice is just honey to my ears every time I hear her sing live I’m blown away
Love Kelly’s voice and she does a good job with Tracys song.
Crazy thing is that she's holding back in this lol. She's just that great! You Go Kelly!
YES!!! Girl!!!! Sultry, soulful….perfection!!
Hi seleina how are you doing
Is what's the good word is.. really though..😱 soul... pure and simple.. wow lady.. I called you winning American idol the first time I seen you sing for an absolutely real reason, and you did that completely..😢😭
her voice is an instrument of its own.
Kelly needs to do a straight up blues album
Kelly Clarkson is an amazing talent don't really care for this version of the song but she absolutely killed it!! What's disappointing is every video showcasing her splendid voice has some comment on her weight.Why is it so easy to focus on the negative when you're bombarded by her electrify vocals, yet that still isn't enough for some. One of the best voices of our generation!
blessings4eva it is kinda upbeat. I love her vocals but im not a fan of the instrumental aspect of this version either
You made comment on the very thing u complained about. No need to defend her. Some things are best left ignored.
FREAKING FANTASTIC!!!! She nails everything she sings.
Hi Brandy how are you doing
The soul in Her voice sinks into every bone in My body.
So sweet and loving and DAMN TALENTED!!.Ms Clarkson may your career continue and soar!. Bless you
She sings it as if she wrote it herself. She is a breath of fresh air!
Damn!! The girl can sing and she is certainly bring this already great song up to a whole higher level.. Love it!
Had to come back after she covered this again on her show. It's too good
Holy shit, this woman is incredible! I really hope Kelly's children have inherited her voice because we need more of this talent in our world :)
Heard this song a lot growing up and Kelly Clarkson killed this!! 🙂❤️😘
Wonderful cover of a Tracy Chapman classic by the remarkable Kelly Clarkson. Tracy Chapman did a phenomenal cover of Ben E King's 'Stand By Me' on David Letterman on 4/17/15--rare to see her perform, and it's a treasure. Watch it--you will be moved.
it's a great cover.....yet no one can beat Tracy Chapman original take! Awesome Kelly is trying new things
Agree, but where is Tracy Chapman these days? Great voice, but a one hit wonder, while Kelly killing songs in EVERY genre!!!
I think that she's the only person on Earth that can cover any song of any artist and sound brilliant :D
You know what? Go Kelly.
Go Kelly for shaving part of her head; go Kelly for wearing whatever she likes; go Kelly for owning her weight, despite the unreasonable beauty standards people in her industry generally live up to. Doesn't her success despite her refusal to meet these ridiculous requirements prove her talent even more than she already has? Doesn't it show that she is so talented she doesn't even have to meet beauty standards because her beautiful voice is so gorgeous?
Kelly Clarkson is not her body. Kelly Clarkson is so much more than her body. Kelly Clarkson is a singer, and an incredible one at that. She is so much more than these ridiculous measurements and judgments the media is making about her body. It's none of our business, as viewers, how much she weighs, or how she chooses to style her hair, or even how healthy she is, because Kelly Clarkson is a singer, and that's the end of it. Her intention is to make beautiful music, and if you are too stuck on her body to see that, then maybe you should reevaluate your priorities.
I’m still blown away by Kelly’s incredible voice. It still shocks me after all these years. Oh how I love this song!
Still head and shoulders, the most talented Idol.
This women AINT NO JOKE!!! HER VOICE IS ENDLESS
Last I looked she is a singer and not a swimsuit model or a soldier or any profession that requires a skinny body. Her voice sounds great and her singing is great she doesn't need to look any certain way for that.
Rachel Sun that’s Why I love the voice auditions. Because they don’t see what you look like they just care about your voice.
Rachel Sun male artists get to look like hell and nobody cares (Dylan, Lovett, Studdard, etc...), it’s such a double standard.
Agree! I thought she gave a sensuous song, without bones showing. Wow!
Kelly Clarkson may be the most versatile living pop vocalist.
Kelly.......we love you! Keep singing!
Good god she has so much soul! I would love to hear Kelly do a blues album.
Fabulous voice, great singer.
Kelly didn't even even put her own spin on it. Tracy was the creative original and accompanied herself on the guitar. Love Tracy!
Love Kelly's version. She is awesome..
All these negative comments on such an amazing voice and version of the song. Sure it's not the original but maybe she wasn't going for that, this is just her rendition of it. She fucking SLAYED no matter how big or small. That voice can win anyone over.
she's amazing
This is one of those songs I could take or leave, but Clarkson delivers a solid performance, really nice job.
Give me one reason to stay here
And I'll turn right back around
Give me one reason to stay here
And I'll turn right back around
Said I don't want to leave you lonely
You got to make me change my mind
Baby I got your number, oh, and I know that you got mine
You know that I called you, I called too many times
You can call me baby, you can call me anytime
You got to call me
Give me one reason to stay here
And I'll turn right back around
Give me one reason to stay here
And I'll turn right back around
Said I don't want leave you lonely
You got to make me change my mind
I don't want no one to squeeze me, they might take away my life
I don't want no one to squeeze me, they might take away my life
I just want someone to hold me, oh, and rock me through the night
This youthful heart can love you, yes, and give you what you need
I said, This youthful heart can love you, oh, and give you what you need
But I'm too old to go chasing you around
Wasting my precious energy
Give me one reason to stay here
Yes and I'll turn right back around
Give me one reason to stay here
Ooh and I'll turn right back around
Said I don't want leave you lonely
You got to make me change my mind
Baby just give me one reason, Give me just one reason why
Baby just give me one reason, Give me just one reason why I should stay
Said I told you that I loved you
And there ain't no more to say
Kelly's voice is so diverse! I love this cover just as much as the original!
This is reeeeaaaally good!
That’s the way to do it! 😮
After listening to this, along with all the other wonderful and often unexpected covers Ms. Clarkson performed on her last tour (there are quite a few here on youtube), my only question is, when are you going to put out a covers album?
qbear17 word. I need a covers album!
I would love to hear kelly sing mariah carey theres got to be a way!!
There is in fact 2. Smoakstack Sessions Vol 1 & 2
Beautiful sommers Didn't she do a Mariah song during the Stronger tour as one of the fan requests?
Can Kelly do a country album please. Her voice soulful, evocative and so moving. She is blessed with God's gift
I enjoy most of her original music but if Kelly Clarkson ONLY covered other songs, I would be fine with that, too. So good.
Absolutely awesome!!! Congrats!!
Never heard the original, but her rendition is really giving me the feels. This rush to my chest.
Check it out. The original is excellent too. Love them both!
original is better
You have got to hear the original one!!!. This is good and I am glad someone brought the song back. I
Francisco .Velloso The original IS better, but Kelly is killing it. Do that Kelly!
Francisco .Velloso LaRae Carter Better is a subjective term and you are both using it as if it is an objective one.
FANTASTIC!
no one can sing better.. when the original singer is tracy chapman
LOVE this girl's voice! What an instrument!
Her voice is so unreal. She's so incredibly talented, not to mention a great songwriter.
& she's beautiful. The people commenting on her weight can suck a bag of farts
😂🤣👌
Models, right
Jacob Alexander I mean for real🤣🤣🤣🤣 I agree.. she didn’t make a career bc of how much she weighs it’s her voice... she’s gorgeous and can sing like a mothaf***** no matter how much she weighs that’s why she’s successful
LOLOL
Tracey Chapman wrote this song?
❤️ her voice!!! Keep ROCK’n mama!!! You are amazing!!!
✌🏽😉👍🏽
This was GREAT! Kelly you're awesome :)
I love this....Kelly was singing from her gut.....you have to feel that in order to sing the blues. Kelly you ROCK.
Flawless
The girl can sing! Big talent is still there. The voice, the passion…
First and foremost, I just want to say that Kelly, you go girl! You did the damn thang, and I'm so fucking proud of you! Secondly, your baby girl River is absolutely precious, and you and your hubby are such a beautiful couple. Third, I'm also proud of how you tackle people's comments about your weight with such conviction in your voice, and not letting their small-minded, Hollywood-centric views on what beauty is supposed to look like affect you. Moreover, I think you're an absolutely beautiful human being, no matter what size jeans you're in or what your hairstyle is for the time being (which by the way, I'm digging your hair, girly). Fourth and finally, if you don't like Kelly Clarkson, then leave. No one asked you to stick your two cents in (while you do have the right to an opinion), other people have come here because we actually love to hear her sing. As far as people being downright disrespectful to a woman who has done nothing to you personally, why? Why do you feel the need to insult her? Is it because you're projecting your own insecurities onto someone who clearly has more talent in her pinky finger than you might have in your entire body and you feel the need to pick on her because you need someone to make you feel better? If that's the case, I feel sorry for you. Lastly, to her fans, like myself, whom have stood by her through thick and thin, thank you. Seriously. On behalf of Kellbell, thank you.
She's a really good blues singer. I want to see more of that!
This is awesome :) ROCK ON!!!!!!!!
I love hearing Kelly sing anyway...so I loved it...but I also love Tracy's version of this song as well. They are both great artists.
That's it. It's time to lock Kelly into the recording studio, with her band, and not let her out until she's recorded EVERY GREAT SONG by every other artist. This is too good. I can't. I just can't.
Seriously. Call a medic. I don't know how to live any more. Without these other songs. I am trying to move on but I don't think I can. Not after hearing this.
Now I must live with the knowledge that all the songs I've ever heard and loved could also be performed by Kelly Clarkson and bear the stamp of her unique, expressive, powerful, lush, textured, and beautiful voice. To know such a thing. And to move on. I just don't see how this is possible.
If anyone can help me, please reach out. Otherwise, time to move forward with the studio locking idea. Just sayin.
Every time a great cover is done, it's a CREDIT to the original artist and performer. They are the ones who made the song great to begin with. Doing a great cover is the purest and most epic means of celebrating that original work. It draws attention to and promotes the original piece and causes the music-buying, radio-listening, media-consuming public to take notice of a dusted off musical treasure whereas otherwise, it may have sat on a shelf, forgotten.
When I think about the reasons why we haven't gotten a boatload of recordings like this from the likes of Kelly Clarkson, it pains me to know that a perception exists among record labels and those holding publishing rights that such virtuosity in covering a song could ever detract from the seminal work. Quite the opposite is true. And Kelly Clarkson is the God damned anointed one who needs to bring that to light once and for god damned all.
'MERICA!
No. But seriously. I will lose my sh*t, you guys. Somebody please hold me. I am having a rough time. If we can't have a steady stream of albums just like this from Kelly - in addition to the great albums of new material she already puts out, and will hopefully continue to do - then I don't know what the point of living even is any more. I mean, why bother to try?
Ryann Rutroh Yes, but the problem is that the money is in the publishing. She would have to give away a huge portion of the records revenues to the publishers of the other songs, and she would earn no monies from the underlying songs.
I love and agree with this whole comment.
Big or Thin! Kelly you are amazing!! Keep doing what you do!!
Awesome cover! I wish people would stop talking about her weight, she's a talented singer not a model.
Please, just enjoy the music folks. Leave the arguing for those people who wander thru life looking for a reason to be offended. Same song, different sound. Both are wonderful.
Best voice in the game.. Imo, better than beyonce, Adele, keys, she's my #1
Omg! Kelly! Tracy is it you?.. No....! Kelly owns this one!!!😊😊😊😉
Woah, that was good!!!
Kelly and Tracy both do a good job at singing this song.
Amazing
asdotheternity what is this? a confidence builder? geez, thanks for your compliment
Kelly just hearing you sing this cover just make feel good all over.
All I'm seeing is comments about how big she's gotten... PEOPLE WHO CARES???? It is her weight, her business. you don't like it? Well too bad, this is who Kelly is. and if you can't accept that, then you're not a real fan.
And she had a baby,at the time of this she was focused on her mommy duties and album.
Amen sister!
