Billie’s sound like she’s writing her feelings and pain in her diary. Kelly’s version makes sure her message to him was sent to his face.

[@andthas]

Billie is a girl, Kelly is a woman who’s been through it

Now this is what you call a "COVER", singing an original song as if it's your own, adding new emotions, flavors, and a brand new soul to the piece. Your version is just pure eargasm. Ms. Kelly Clarkson, you are an ARTIST, a living legend. I'm beyond happy that I grew up listening to your music. We love you.

[@ThuNguyenLifeDesigner]

Love the twists to the lyrics “I get it you hate this city” instead of “You made me hate this city” and “just like a kid” instead of “cuz I was a kid”. They really show Kelly’s emotions as a woman that has transcended above the adolescent angst phase. Billie’s original version is great too, very relatable for youth. I alternate between the 2 versions depending on my mood lol

[@lindaraney4024]

Astute observation! I had no clue there was a change in lyrics. I love it more.

Well I think that Billie should write Kelly a song or three. People of all walks are really wearing out her songs as covers. She should be every bit as much of a writer for all the great voices. Or is it her brother? I'm so confused.

[@missmochiicecream]

this has huge P!nk vibes (which is intended to be a compliment) - Kelly is awesome as always.

I got the Pink vibes as well. I love both of these singers, so I agree it's a compliment.

[@bryanmartin5901]

Except unlike Pink, Kelly would never tell people with expletive-laced rants to never listen to her music ever again just because they accept that murdering human beings in utero is a state issue not a constitutional right. Pink lost all respect from me bc she is a leftist loony who literally is willing to vilify more than half her base bc she wants people to murder sentient human beings with heart beats and brain activity at any point in pregnancy for any reason however unethical or unnecessary. Despicable.

It's not iconic, but it was a pretty cool idea.

[@lauraclark92]

Billie introduced this song and it was amazing then Kelly brings it to life in 3D color. Billie whispers, Kelly pierces your soul with it. Amazing. The video was awesome, loved the color and fireworks!!

[@pieter.singer]

stop saying that Billie is whispering, she's singing and her singing ability is beyond amazing

[@lauraclark92]

@@pieter.singer I happen to be a huge Billie Eilish fan. I think she's brilliant as far song writing, her and her brother Finias. She's a very talented singer as well. I meant that her singing style is often times softer and more quiet. That doesn't mean it's ALWAYS like that. ... This is a comment forum. I didn't say anything bad. I expressed an opinion which is what is done here. Yes, I compared two artists but I wasn't putting one down to build the other up. I also meant on this particular song, I've listened to both versions, that Kelly's version while it may start out quieter, it gets louder and louder which is what I'm sure she intended to bring this song to life in 3D color! Billie let's the lyrics speak for themselves and doesn't belt as much as Kelly does. It has a sleepy 1940's feel which I like. She tells him off too, it's just not as loud. Both versions pierce the soul. I didn't mean that she's literally whispering... I don't know why I'm explaining, this post has gotten long and I wonder if you're still reading this. If you are, awesome! While I admire your passion for Billie Eilish, you need to learn that it's rude to jump to conclusions and tell someone else what opinion they should have. My opinion is just as valuable as yours or anyone else's. If you don't like something, fine you don't have to like it, just keep it moving, unless you can say something without being so rude. Everyone just needs to be kinder.

[@chrisdick2305]

The term "whisper" is technically inaccurate from a singing perspective. You literally cannot whisper and hold a melody. Try it yourself. I am not trying to be critical. Most commentators on these sites are not experts on the mechanics of breath control. What Billie does vocally is more difficult than most people realize. She uses her almost perfect pitch and breathy intonation to create a very subtle but powerful emotional pallette. I viewed the great Alicia Keyes cover of the Billie song 'Everything I Wanted', and she really struggled. What is true is that Billie's style would not be easy to achieve without microphone amplification. But this is true of many singers, although not perhaps of the great Kelly C.

[@alexismasson5472]

Best description.

[@lauraclark92]

@@chrisdick2305 ok so you're a literal thinker. I didn't mean what I said in a literal sense. I was moved to almost tears by Kelly Clarkson's rendition of this song. To be honest, I hadn't heard the original by Billie Eilish yet. Since I liked what I heard so much, I decided I wanted to hear the original. So after hearing them both I let that resonate. Later, I came back to KC then made this comment on here because I was moved again. I was simply commenting on Kelly Clarkson's amazing cover of this song. I truly like both versions, but each one gives you something different. I mainly meant that Billie's style is often softer, Kelly is more in your face. I meant for this song, to me Kelly brought the song to life in 3D color, but that doesn't take away how amazing Billie Eilish is. I don't know how else to explain this. I know I didn't have to but I felt compelled to try to explain what I truly meant. I really thought the song by the title was going to be a happy cheerful song, but was I wrong!

[@tiovanna8802]

[@galvezdaniel7618]

The song just blew my mind! The soft part in the beginning, I felt like there was some "Adele" vibes into it, the way Kelly sang that part. But when the rock part began, that's when I was really mind blown, as she really poured her heart into that song! Absolutely amazing 👏 Kelly, I hope you keep singing these kinds of songs! Lots of love from the Philippines! 🇵🇭

[@tylerwilmoth5046]

I’m sorry but this is Kelly’s song. Mix of radio head and an early behind these hazel eyes vibe. Forever iconic. She’s also smart. I feel like she’s doing a cover album of songs about her divorce so her name won’t be tied to the songs. Smart girl. Saving ur kids backs in the long run with that. Even tho we all want a breakup album bad.

The other songs on this EP are spectacular as well. Kelly is by far my favorite vocalist of all time. She sings every note without any sense of difficulty. She's incredibly gifted with her abilities, and she's an amazing human to boot! I hope she knows how much she is appreciated and respected.

[@Meriale46]

It's being sang the same way Billie Eilish sang it (she wrote the song) Kelly has a great voice no doubt and I love her music and this version of the song, but make no mistake, Billie Eilish's performance and vocial style was perfect for the song. I'm certain Kelly Clarkson is well aware of how incredable talented she is without the need to bash other singers to make herself feel superior. These are 2 different artist with 2 different incredable vocals and style. We should celebrate them both.
