[@goldcellist]

It was an honor to be a part of this and play cello with her... It was a treat just listening to her kick ass at everything!

[@BENJISCOTTPARIS]

Nicholas Gold u really played with her ? How was it?

[@goldcellist]

Yes. Have recorded and performed with her a number of times. Kelly is the most down to earth and nicest person ever. She's one of the best live performers I've ever worked with... (which is a lot of people.. lol). It's always nice to hear her live like this. Kelly is obviously a f-ing badass.

[@alicorn7]

so jealous right now - thank you for sharing

[@stephuhhnieeTee]

I probably would have cried hearing that voice up close and personal.

[@jaykay5086]

You guys are heavenly. What’s the price range to get this exact arrangement to play this song live at an event?

[@danielfloyd.]

I am not even gonna exaggerate, but this was probably the BEST live vocal performance I think I've ever seen.

[@neutralman9124]

It's her best live performance, for sure. Absolutely flawless.

[@jpratm1993]

It gives me goosebumps every time.

[@gravincas3916]

It's phenomenal, but I also love Jesus to a child by George Michael live performance on the MTV awards in 1994. It blows my mind. Both are just so breathtakingly beautiful. Ugh. Have you seen her piece by piece in American idol? It's so raw and emotional. She astounds me every time she opens her mouth to sing.

[@diegonunes2728]

Have u seen her live performance of The Trouble With Love Is at the Ryan Seacrest Show? For me its her best live vocals ever. 😍

[@tkdrgnon]

I agree this is my second favorite of hers. Try this Kelly performance and give me your honest opinion. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qoHHfqqlZ6tmp6c

[@shawnleong3605]

Why is she so underrated?! I want to know the reason. This woman deserves the sales of Adele, Taylor Swift and Beyonce.

[@seanjun_]

Shawn Leong true

[@mariangerula4079]

Wish I knew 2..

[@TheSeuloSound]

Shawn Leong People went crazy over Hello and Adele's music (which is great), but you mean to tell me......Kelly can't get the same sales. Meaning of Life is an American "25"......come on now

[@TrisTan-wo7tf]

Poor marketing? She doesn't show her ass and boobs? That's modern music. You have to show some skin to sell. Voice is not enough, unfortunately. Adele is an exemption though. Adele is something new in the biz. No one has her tone, sound and musical style that's why people bite her music.

[@Itsjoeymckenzie]

And NO ONE sounds like Kelly Clarkson lol. But anyways!(: R BH

[@user-ur2wd8du4z]

this is her best era and yall slept on it

[@shawnleong3605]

Many people say P!nk is underrated... But how is she underrated when she is debuting HUGE numbers on Billboard. Kelly is the real definition of underrated here...

[@leumamk5259]

And for me, she's BETTER than P!nk at singing.

[@mackenziewalrath9235]

Kelly is amazing no hate on P!nk because she is a good singer but Kelly is one of the best singers i have ever heard, also you didn't really need to say anything because that was rude

[@mcreyrey]

Funny because Pink and Kelly remind me of each other. I guess it’s the tone of their voice.

[@lucas3420]

In my Country (Italy) her music doesn't even exist! I mean.. i've never listened her music in the radios.

[@mitaboop]

@@mcreyrey well, must say that im bllod fan of both P!nk and Kelly, and they are actually quite ecual when it comes to the singing and voice. P!nk live, that's on another level incomparesent to her album singing😍🤩

[@heffty5]

I swear if Kelly doesn’t win her 4th pop vocal Grammy for this album I’m never watching the Grammys again

[@markashton2873]

Will Heffernan I’d like her to get a different Grammy (as well?) this time! She’s more than just vocals!

[@heffty5]

Mark Ashton very very true!! She deserves so much her! She’s so underrated

[@sharronhutchins952]

Will Heffernan agreed

[@YOUNGDOUGLAS1]

The deadline for grammy submissions ended about a week or 2 ago, I believe, So I don't think the album is eligible :(

[@markashton2873]

Next year then...

[@GarageStudio7]

*Kelly Clarkson has the ability to revive music to it's golden vocal era!* ✨ She growls and has a raspy voice but she doesn't sound strained... I love that she's playing with her headvoice/falsetto more.

[@jenifferdejesus7722]

Yes! Unlike Christina Aguilera! I used to love her voice but now she tries too hard and it doesn't sound good.

[@nelsonm5004]

THANK YOU for bringing back real music!

[@johnsuttoniiijs]

The entire band murdered this track live. The intervals at the end vocally. omg.

[@CryNoAngel]

Low notes High notes Whistles Falsettos Growls Soul I'm no expert in the technicalities, but dang! I love this woman so much!

[@kendalledwards6898]

Don’t forget Riffs and Runs

[@stormbob]

Girl. GIRL. Why you gotta step up and just snatch a piece of my soul like that?

[@bankkamon]

This should be #1 on bb chart, so perfect song.

[@heatherm3071]

Wow!!! I love her vocals so much. She is amazing.

[@fromthemtothel4897]

I'm so dead.... her vocals, holy shit!! That falsetto run at the end, wtf. I can't describe how amazed I am.

[@SeeTwittyTV]

I really need the Nashville Sessions to be an official release because they sound so much fuller than the studio album

[@dpd624]

8 people didn't like this video. 8. why? this is amazing. kelly is killing it and looking good doing it

[@eloyhernandez1742]

I know this is like one of best live vocals but it’s Kelly Clarkson we’re talking about guys, this performance, up to the mountain, never loved a man, cryin’ I surrender, I will always love you etc it’s hard to choose, I think my brain just can’t choose one lol She’s definitely a certified goddess vocalist 🔥

[@lifes_a_journey]

Kelly is SO good! She is the best, most underrated vocalist of this time. She is passionate, emotional and her voice is sooo powerful! Love hearing AND SEEING her perform!!

[@samthesung4902]

Wowza. This is what happens when you get a few years under your belt and then take it ALL back to the roots and the heart of where you came from, but this time wrapped up in the experience and skill that was earned the hard way all along the road to where you are. It's you, but polished, and modern. It's the next big revival of the Motown sound and R&B. Excellent! I got chills all through that piece, not just on the high notes, but in so many places where your vocal prowess just stepped up to be recognized. Stellar supporting artists, the production is perfect. I am in love again.

[@hellopaolo]

SamtheSung amen!

[@dioggopereira8252]

Preach!

[@austinwilpan2719]

SamtheSung yasssss, well said

[@jherlenecargill4081]

Yasssss

[@collinkennedy5174]

I couldn't have said anything better, Kelly shakes my foundation. God bless you girl.

[@johnsuttoniiijs]

Can we just talk about seconds 1:36 to 1:37!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Name another rn who's improvising that run live today. I'll wait.

[@Jimbojub]

Loving my girl but let's show some love for her 3 beautiful singing backups

[@leovaskes]

Jimbo Jub I couldn't agree more. Do you know if they are the ones credited on the album?

[@juansebastiangonzalezperez8699]

They were :)

[@pedroheilel130]

1:50 through 1:53 should be enough to make you Win another Grammy!!!

[@rosenbergbenadretti]

If this doesn't win a Grammy then there's no justice in the world

[@OwnedByKitties]

I’m from the future .. there was no justice lol. She was nominated for this album, can’t remember who won instead now lol.

[@jimhardy579]

@@OwnedByKitties Ariana Grande for the album Sweetener.

[@OwnedByKitties]

@@jimhardy579 Ah, thank you, I couldn’t remember who won and forgot to look it up. Lol

[@chrisga9771]

Best singer in pop music today, female or otherwise.

[@Dannyboi2]

Damn , girl takes no prisoners...This should be all over the Radio not the crap they have now... Come on DJ's it's time to show people how Music is Done.

[@SuperMartinCC]

Yes I agree, all I keep hearing is from 1970's, I know it's a good era, but come on, there is Kelly Clarkson the best female singer since Celine Dion, I love listening to Kelly's voice 24/7,

[@ChristinaTaft]

I THINK THIS IS MY FAVORITE SONG ON THIS ALBUM!!!!!! Amazing vocals and some meaning lol

[@lyndahicks4921]

damn straight

[@gabrielasilva41]

Yes

[@pedroheilel130]

Kelly Clarkson NEVER disappoints. Yes, you read It right, I Said NEVER!!!! Too bad you cant say the same thing about certain so called 'singers', can you? Too bad

[@mstea1105]

Kelly Clarkson you are Phenomenal since day one

[@kylejackson3334]

Literally one of the best vocalists of our generation

[@rahulvaswani749]

This is a master class in vocals

[@badhabit7553]

She always killed it, so proud of her.

[@bahia774]

Awesome! I don't know why it doesn't have millions of views

[@k7rage]

Round of applause for the one and only.......... Kelly 'Slay' Clarkson 👌💕❤️

[@elysabethrodriguez2201]

Most underrated song 😍

[@mariapulley577]

No one can hold a candle to her. That voice is pure magic. Her artistry and passion in it is so amazing too. She has both raw talent and mature style to her singing. Blown away!

[@Greyson8388]

Angry it took me this long to find this song! Blessed because I need it more than ever❤

[@tomfogbawah3027]

Heart melting voice beautiful! 🤩🤩🤩🤩

[@sharonf106]

OMG. Amazing. How can one person be so versatile? Her voice is beyond description. Can't wait to hear the rest of the album.

[@cathyfutch5993]

The album is phenomenal from beginning to end! Every song is so different and shows off a different side of her personality! People who have not haven't heard it are really missing out! Get it ASAP!!! Stunning!! Best album of her career!!!!

[@xtar8524]

Cathy Futch No truer words have ever been spoken!!!! So an hour ago I was just randomly selecting any new release and turns out to be hers and I gotta say every song from the album is a freaking masterpiece. Her vocals are beyond human and I think this is by far 2017’s best album!

[@ashleyrichardson6267]

This entire album is straight fire 🔥

[@cristianr.brarda4912]

OMG People, this is LIVE! REAL LIVE! It's out of this World! 👏😍👏😍👏

[@theusaosb]

[@Greyson8388]

One of my favorites!!!❤❤❤

[@dhrubaintisher8169]

first of all....who could dislike this??? tone deaf people? She's a vocal goddess! The best in the business.

[@ngtngt44]

dhruba intisher yasss

[@OwnedByKitties]

I don’t know … I’ll quote Simon Cowell “they just don’t appreciate good singers”. It was sarcasm about how excited everyone was when she was on Idol. He was just totally busting on them, but I think it’s true in the real world. Even people in the business say she’s the best. Nobody has ever impressed me this much.

[@Liligal1]

Kelly Clarkson is far too underrated rated for how truly amazing her voice is. She is without question one of the greatest voices of her generation, every bit of equally as good as Adele! Many young voices in today's music scene will come and go, but talent like Kelly's doesn't come along every day. This girl has already proved her staying power., and with a voice that only gets richer with time, she undoubtedly will be around for decades to come! This video clearly demonstrates what a mega-voice she has and what she's capable of doing with it! One word: WOW!!!

[@Bloooo95]

What the hell, Kelly? You release the song and then couldn’t wait to put out a live version that blows the studio out of the water this soon?!?! I wasn’t ready for this!!! 😭💀😭💀😭💀😭

[@nbluejay6762]

Bloo95 😨😲😊😂

[@bernardwilson9688]

hahaha yes! I feel the same! this version CRUSHES the studio version

[@jacquelinestirling4312]

Wow, no surprises here but this is shaping up to be one incredible album. Girl can SAAAAANNNNGGG!

[@karlamendoza285]

She is a real singer! You are the best, no matter what.

[@yesa-b9978]

In shock, this is perfection...

[@ltnprince310]

I am not worthy!!!!! OMG THIS IS GOING TO BE ONE AMAZING ERA!!!!!!!!

[@Volvican]

Her voice is just so amazing on these Nashville sessions. I have never heard her sound better.

[@andn25]

Finally Kelly brought back music with substance. Real music.

[@MrSyasuke]

Holy shiiiiiiit, I know that Kelly is one of the best but girl this was beyond, this is why i fell in love of her and that voice. I'm so glad that she can do the music that she wants 😍😍😍😍

[@kristinseymour25]

Kelly is perfection! And watch out when she sings live with her eyes closed most of the time because she is really bringing it! Best female voice of our generation!!

[@busymama7903]

DAAAMN GIRRRL! No holds barred Kelly, this is true heart and soul and I’m loving it!!!

[@KCThalles]

Beautiful! Now tell me how can I take this “meaning of life life life life” thing out of my head

[@cathyfutch5993]

You can't!!! Listen to "Didn't I" that one will be stuck in your head too! ALL OF THEM ARE FREAKIN AWESOME!!!!!!

RIDICULOUS! This girl can SING!

[@matheusnunes1884]

what a song! what a voice!

[@IblewuponyourfaceIII]

Matheus Nunes the reason why she won American Idol

[@ChristinaTaft]

I think this is my favorite one!

[@dj4celine]

TRUTH! And goddamn you're one beautiful man

[@Nozuka621]

She should release the Nashville Sessions as an Album too!

[@Joseph-lg9fg]

Nozuka I think she is, i saw photos of behind the scenes of this session, and on the teleprompter it said "Slow Dance", which is one of the songs on the album. And as far as i know "Slow Dance" won't be a single, so i think she will release a Nashville Session for each song on the album!

[@YosiaCS]

DAMN RIGHT..!!

[@pollymahone9392]

Damn Kelly Clarkson voice actually sounds like the ones on the cds she is pure and genuine no autotune she is the most honest and most determined artist I've ever seen

[@markashton2873]

Polly Mahone I’ve seen her live 7/8 times over the last 10 years and I’ve always said she sounds much better live than in the studio ❤️ Can’t wait for this tour!

[@1234werken]

Dammm girl, You did it again!!

Everybody else take note. This is how you do it. Chills!

[@kaydrelia48]

Is it bad that is my 56th time listening to this song? I started last night, woke up and started again this morning. SLAAAAAY Kelly....Taylor who?😍

[@Rememberwhenpod]

This is so damn good. Wow. 8 days to go!

[@Helen-jv8ye]

She is amazing! There are no words to describe how up lifting and true this artist is. Her spirt and her delivery of these songs that represent the feeling and passion is just incredible. Life is sometimes hard, but when I hear her and feel her songs I feel so powerful and that makes me feel like I can do anything! Thank you Kelly!!

[@melissag9642]

IF SHE DOESN'T WIN THE GRAMMY FOR BEST ALBUM, YA'LL GOT PROBELMS

[@paulorodrigocs]

I can't wait another day to hear your full album. You've just showed me the Meaning of Life. Beautiful piece of music.

[@samueltrevino1936]

X 2

[@SuperMartinCC]

'Because of You' I have been listening since day one, and your voice Kelly is just out of this time amazing and you are 'Invincible'. 'Piece by Piece' I try to sing along, but I can't hit those notes, so please Kelly never 'Walk Away' because you are amazing and hearing you is like 'Medicine' to my long stressful days

[@EvanRockwell1]

Kelly has one of the best voices ever. But what I love about her music is how she features her band and background singers. Those people need to be recognized too and she gives them their moments. I love it.

[@jefrizulkafli6824]

Definitely she must win the grammy next year... kinda excited for her upcoming album

[@moigonzaga]

This anthem should have more views.

[@carochapelle5642]

OMG. I'm a french girl, 39 years old, not fresh but knowing what the meaning of life is now, not used to let messages.. but.. OMG! Kelly you rock internationally ! That is what singing is about.. You're fire baby no matter what some people say...

[@p0plemousse]

That note at 3:23 just took me by surprise. So good. This album is gonna be great, I can feel it. All three songs already released have been top-notch quality!

I'm getting more excited to hear the entire album due shortly on 10/27. I've pre-ordered but I love getting physical copies. I'll be buying for friends and family. Christmas you know. I'll be listening to this for a VERY LONG TIME because it is a MASTERPIECE!!!

Why doesn’t this have millions of views? Her voice and how she emotes is absolutely incredible

She is one of the few artists that links millennials like me to a time of the greats. We get to experience their soul, artistry, class, and power through her... I LOVE ME SOME KELLY.... #TeamKClarkson #Kclarksonislife
