Fresh (RE)lease





Kelly Clarkson is a pop mega star, and a reality show winner. The two aren't exactly synonymous, but Clarkson proved that her insanely powerful voice was a forced to be reckoned with. Three albums and two Grammys later, Kelly is back with her fourth CD titled "All I Ever Wanted. It's being pegged as a more mature of her multi-platinum album "Breakaway" and less of the singer- songwriter vibe that was found on her less commercially successful, yet critically acclaimed third album "My December". What we have here is a track from the new album named "The Day We Fell Apart." Normally, I'm not a fan of super cheesy pop music, and thankfully this isn't that type of the song. Kelly's voice is in prime form, and the drum line in this song is so powerful that it becomes an instant rocker. The best part about her performances is when she sings, she makes sure you feel everything that she's feeling, which makes for an even better experience. A catchy melody, strong verses, and an emotion-filled delivery prove that not only is Clarkson back, but is securing her place as one of the greatest pop singers of the new millennium.

"All I Ever Wanted" is slated for a March 10, 2009 release.
