Episode 208: Global Dance - Essential Kelly Clarkson 1
It's taken me some time to get around to making my next Essential artist compilation but I never had any doubt it would be Kelly Clarkson. Her voice is undeniable. The range, the power and the control. There is literally nothing this woman cannot sing. I remember her audition on the first season of American Idol way back in 2002 and unlike many singing talent show winners, Kelly did not fade from public view after her debut single and album. In fact, she increased he fan base becoming more popular with each album release. Three of her most successful albums Breakaway, All I Ever Wanted and Stronger are some of the highest selling albums by a female pop artist, and all of this by 2011. Kelly's appeal is global as she has had songs chart around the world. She reinvented herself when she became a regular judge on the US version of The Voice with 4 winning contestants to her name. In 2019 Kelly became the host of her own talk show where a highlight of each episode was her "Kellyoke" where she would cover songs by other artists, putting her unique spin on them. This first edition of essential songs features 22 tracks remixed by producers such as 7th Heaven, Division 4, Chris Cox, Barry Harris, Shanghai Surprise, Cosmic Dawn, Wayne G & Andy Allder, Russ Rich, JRMX, David Guetta and DJ Laszlo to name a few. The final track is a duet with Cher but I didn't realize that the remixer had cut most of Kelly's vocal from the mix, so enjoy the final song by Cher I guess. I love listening to Kelly sing so here is a compilation of her biggest hits for you to do the same.
