[@JayShupe]

People need to stop sleeping on Kelly, she is an incredible vocalist, songwriter & human.

[@nestorperez6867]

I believe people are starting to finally wake up on her lol.

[@dawna8695]

💯❤‍🔥

[@RoyalMasterpiece]

She deserves to break Grammy records.

[@Pat_Speaks]

Seriously, I don’t Kelly is lacking fans! As far as I have heard, she is very much respected among her peers as well.

[@donnawood3505]

Everyone has different opinions, & being in the spotlight leaves you open for people to express them. I wasn’t impressed by this song. You can hardly understand the words… her stylist should tell her middle hair parts are passe’ ? They don’t do anything for her. Looks she may finally has her weight under control. You should learn to quit telling others how to feel or act, worry about your own.

[@emilythomas2577]

Shout out to Jessi’s excellent vocals !!!

[@evenprejeantouchet5530]

She sounds like Kelly but unique in her own way as well! She’s extremely talented

[@ladylisaromance8129]

Yesss! She sounds a lot like Kelly and that's just a whopper of a compliment. Her voice is stunning and she's beautiful.

[@getoonkel]

Stunning ❤

[@xxo8888]

Is that her name? A-mazing! Her tone is gorgeous

[@lizmillinor8681]

Jessi is amazing! I saw Kelly this summer at her Vegas residency and all of her back up singers are stellar! And so many in her band have been with her for many, many years. Kelly is not afraid to let others shine, like Jessi. I love that 💕!

[@annawallace3383]

One of the greatest vocalists of our lifetime. Props to the backup vocalist. Takes a lot of skill and talent to stand next to Kelly and she rocked it!

[@daveyermold8847]

Jessi Collins. absolute rock star!

[@jodiefontenot]

Jessi Collins is fantastic I hope she and Kelly make magic together forever

[@cuchelo1]

Jessi has been working with Kelly for a decade or so, and she's also the vocal director for Kelly's talk show. She. Is. Incredible.

[@mihaelamars]

@@jodiefontenot well... I actually want more for Jessi. She deserves a solo career!

[@sharonf106]

Shout out to the strings too though!

[@RodrigoPereira-xu1wd]

It’s unbelieveable how mature and even more gorgeous Kelly’s voice sounds nowadays! Shoutout to Jessi’s as well cause they nailed it.

[@rydbthatsme]

Such a heartbreaking and beautiful song! Jessie really does deserve all that shine for being one of the best backup vocalists in the game!

[@adriantan8045]

Such a beautiful song with such a soulful voice! No gimmicks, just pure pure pure talent. I need Kelly to write a video treatment and release a music video for THIS SONG!

[@xmichaelwood]

She's even better than she was 20 years ago! And she's looking absolutely phenomenal!!! I can't wait for daily Kellyoke's to be back in my life!

[@marciaw.2194]

I love that Kelly instantly turns to clap the pianist and her vocal backup singer. Kind.

[@bkm2797]

Kelly's has such a gorgeous voice, and she's looking great!

[@mathemedicseducation5568]

Best singer out there. No other could sound the same or even better LIVE than in their album...but kelly can.

[@justwantedtea]

Mmm I don’t know about that. Kelly is great but I’ve seen Adele live a few times too

[@rhettmitchell]

@@justwantedtea everything is really subjective with singing, so it’s hard to compare. And Kelly is a soprano while Adele is somewhere around alto, kinda a little mezzo though, so it’s not really a comparison to be made bc their ranges are so drastically different. Both sing with crazy amounts of soul and emotion that really connects with people though, so whoever connects most with someone will be their favourite, or the person might think that’s the “best” singer

[@justwantedtea]

@@rhettmitchellI agree with you, everything is subjective.

[@marlenec1600]

Everyone in her Y’all band is amazingly talented. And the fact that Kelly gave her backup vocal her time to shine is truly awesome. She sounded much like Kelly too.

[@stine8P]

the first time i heard this i didnt even realize the switch!

[@michellecena8159]

She’s Jessi Collins. As Kelly’s backup vocalist, she shines on Kelly’s talk show regularly.

[@richardcolosimo4308]

She wrote the song, she sang the song, she lived the song and it shows! THE BEST SINGER OF THIS GENERATION. Hands down. Yet is almost never played on radio or promoted. She’s so good it’s scary!

[@pigul8038]

Her album Chemistry is so good........

[@ScarlettJ1221]

an underrated Queen

[@wherearewegoing378]

Nothing unrated about her honey. She is as mainstream as it gets

[@MisterPlaytester]

Her bounce back is INSANE! The best revenge, I feel, is to get that body back, have your face & voice everywhere, sell out concerts, and keep it pushing... and she's doing just that! So proud of you, Kelly!

[@annalissac]

Stunning and heartbreaking 💔. Love this stripped down version

[@shawnleong3605]

I like how many of you namedrops Jessi and being so familiar with her even though she is a backup vocalist. Goes to show that talent needs a platform to shine, and Kelly is a kind hearted soul who gives her band an opportunity to be noticed (shoutout to My Band Y’all). It’s Kelly’s way of giving back given her way of rising to fame. Kudos to her, Jessi, Jason and the rest of the team!

[@andrewjaymedina1838]

Truly! Jessi is sooo good and can keep up with Kelly vocally the transition between Jessi and Kelly's voice after the bridge is so seamless.

[@asandi4444]

This song is not only incredibly beautiful music, it is powerful medicine.

[@jackierogers5588]

You’re right! This song is extremely powerful, and helps others find their voice in the midst of extremely painful situations! Kelly isn’t just amazingly talented, her vocals are honest, sometimes very raw, and yet there is a level of hope that everybody can cling to when they are going through terrible situations. Thank you Kelly, for your gift of writing and singing, and (not mentioned enough) having the hottest band ever, including Jessi’s great back up singing.

[@andreab5865]

My first time hearing this song...heartbreakingly beautiful. I felt her pain in every syllable. ❤️ Love it

[@jackierogers5588]

Kelly’s voice is multi- generational. What she’s doing now will still be classic fifty years from now. I’ve smiled through her music, and cried as she pours her soul into the lyrics she’s written. Besides being magnificently beautiful to watch, Kelly draws her viewers in and lets them feel what her heart speaks! She IS the ultimate vocalist!❤️🌺🥰

Kelly Clarkson is by far and away the best vocalist ever! Her show THE KELLY CLARKSON SHOW is wonderful, funny, interesting guests, touching the way she reaches out to adults and youngsters doing reallly special things in their communities. Kelly and her guests inspire people to “get involved” and help where ever is needed. Kelly is here for the long haul on so many levels. She shines!! And she puts a light on so many others who need a little help themselves. I love her music, and I appreciate how she showed her pain through her divorce - helping so many other women going thru like situations. Stay strong Kelly! Take care of that amazing voice! Continue to be the best Mom you can be, cause you only have real influence over them through their formative years. And oh, I love love your laugh and your humor and your JOY ! So uplifting! Kelly, I’m an 80 year old fan who has loved you and your talent since you first walked on that stage! You were sassy, funny, and oh so talented! And you just keep getting better and better! You are really growing into your big girl shoes as an interviewer; your enthusiasm shows and your sincere interest in your guests is so apparent. You go girl! Have you guessed by now I’m one of your biggest fans!!

The angelic sound of her voice in that register stunned me. A great song by a truly incredible performer. Just discovered her version on the Today Show. With four backup singers and her thrilling vocalizing near the end, it may even be a better performance than the Fallon one.

[@carryjgful]

This song is so poignant and relateable to all who've been thru it. A long relationship with crisscrossed expectations and incompatabilities. Just like most of us she let chemistry lead her & that always lets us down. Its so insidious, masking as love. So many victims of the mismatch. She got lots of material from that time & as time goes by she'll write more thru the phases of perspective that come to her as inspiration. Can't wait. I want her cd. Its deep and soulful. Ive had two divorces and still comevto reflective realizations even now over 20years later.
