I was hoping this would be the album that re-solidifies Kelly in the pop/rock world since she's been missing from it for a minute, but these songs just don't do it for me. Kelly said something about how the 2 songs show off "different sides" of the album, and if that's the case...I fear what the album, overall, actually sounds like, since neither really pull me in and are easily forgettable, like you said. They're her worst singles to date. I can actually see her being dropped from her label if these songs and album don't perform well, and I have a feeling they won't. I hope I'm wrong. Sis this album can flop and they would still not drop her lol And Kelly isn't a pop rock queen anymore. She wasn't really into it after awhile I'm pretty sure. Her last album was a good mix of the two.

The Next Day Posted April 14, 2023 Posted April 14, 2023 (edited) Mine is that *****. It already feels like the perfect opening song, showing Kelly in a moment of restless reflection and then the instrumental fading out at the end only leaving her voice for a moment. It's truly like as if we caught her in a deeply personal moment and she invites us to sit down and talk. I'm really curious what Skip This Part will sound like. Also her label probably doesn't give a ****. It's not like those both songs have a current commercial sound, I think they really let her do her thing. It seems like she licenses her music to Atlantic anyway, it's not like they totally own her masters. This deal they have probably gives her a lot of freedom. Edited April 14, 2023 by The Next Day

Starkboy Posted April 14, 2023 Posted April 14, 2023 They are not hit potential songs but I enjoyed them both

Kelly is too mature for pop rock at this stage in her career. This feels like the right type of music to show off her writing and vocal talents. I would like to speak with Brandon after LISTENING to these songs. It seems like he really let down her and their relationship. Melissa Etheridge says hi.

ithinkheknowsoutsold Posted April 14, 2023 Posted April 14, 2023 Great songs, I loved both of them. Excited for the album but I hope there will be a Stronger/Miss Independent to balance the heartbreak out with its sass.
Black Berry Posted April 14, 2023 Posted April 14, 2023 Tidbits from the IG live today: - Says the most personal song on ‘chemistry’ is the title track, says it’s unlike any song she’s recorded and also says it’s a nod to Jeff Buckley. - Says she references country music on the album but it’s not actually country sounding. Says the album is very pop, singer/songwriter, punk rock, and soul. Says it’s ‘Breakaway’ meets ’Stronger’ meets ‘Meaning of Life’ - Says it’s similar in rawness to ‘My December’ but much different sonically than MD. - Says church vocals on “me” are all her. - Says there’s a big reason why Steve Martin is on the album that is referenced in another song. - Wishes full album was out. - Big announcement coming Monday.

Kelly Clarkson will not get dropped even if this album flops She's too big of a star and has proven herself. She has nothing to prove anymore.
Dmccall0504 Posted April 14, 2023 Posted April 14, 2023 If Kelly went back to pop/rock then some of you would be saying it’s nothing new, it’s what’s she always does, and she needs to be fresh to be relevant. She can’t win either way. She’s already proved her worth so she’s not out here trying to go #1 and make hits. Again and to those who think these are generic and boring go back and listen to Mr Know It all, Heartbeat Song, heck even Never Again. These songs did what they needed to and got the public interest for her upcoming album.

Irvine Posted April 14, 2023 Posted April 14, 2023 i wonder if she actually forgot she did release two songs with MOL too or if she meant two 'singles' since Move you wasn't really a single (?) the more songs she's releasing at the same time, the better
Monstahr92 Posted April 14, 2023 Posted April 14, 2023 Guys.. why are you all worried.. you know she picks the worst songs on the album as her leads… mr. Know it all, love so soft, heartbeat song, MLWSWY, never again, breakaway and a moment like this.. her albums always have so many great songs, so trust this will be a great album! The second single is always what get’s her going… like sybg, piece of me, miss independent etc.. these are her best first singles of any album (breakaway is cute) so just wait and be blown away.. I personally do love these songs.. are they hits? No! But she needed to get then out, because this is her life atm.
Irvine Posted April 14, 2023 Posted April 14, 2023 i think it's really about the album as a whole...she said she let her label pick the singles cause she was fine with whatever song to be released mine and me weren't even the first choices can't wait to hear all of them
josephpatrick Posted April 15, 2023 Posted April 15, 2023 A lot of you pretending you know what's a hit and what's not.....and it's obvious you don't know what you're talking about
