Is this one of Kelly's best vocals ever?

I'm sorry I love the album version but this (especially the second half) is INSANE :jonny:

A tad shouty.

 

The Trouble with Love Is is her best vocal performance, IMO. I know she has talked about her preference for singing pop rock (despite her primary influences being R&B/soul), but I think her voice is much more in its element when she goes the R&B route.

Yeah I can see how it comes across shouty, it's a demo and she toned it down a good bit for the album version (a lot of those big belts are in the final version, just pushed to the background and mixed in with the instrumental) but I think it had a lot of potential to be cooler than the final product.

 

I'd love a re-recording of The Trouble With Love Is, she sounds amazing on the original but her voice has gotten so much richer when it comes to soulful stuff and I think she'd pull it off better now.  

 

I honestly think that overall, some of her best studio vocals are me and goodbye

 

 

 

But I'm a sucker for big belted notes and obsessed with this new demo version of Honestly for that reason, the constant sustained G5s :jonny: 

 

I don't think she's ever said she prefers singing pop/rock, has she?  If anything I think she's talked about the more soulful stuff being more at home for her

I always thought her live Tightrope from the PxP extended cut was top tier :jonnycat:

I think I remember her saying that in an interview, but I'll have to find it.

I was ready to say no but I have to say well.... YES! I love this song. Its definitely one of my favorites by Miss Clarkson. The way I used to belt this out out of tune in my car.  :clap3:

The album version has way better vocals than this, and also the whistle. Still, the instrumental sounds amazing :jonnycat:

I think this demo confirms that whistle was never there and it was just a G5 with some effects on it :/

Wait I like this way more than the album version. Her vocals are so clear.

Yes. It's a shame it wasn't included in the album version

I lived a lie lol. But yeah, just searched and found this recent video that filters the note... and sounds like the G5 of the demo :deadbanana4:

Yeah, it was always just a G5 but with a ton of reverb and effects on it and I think you kinda hear a resonant frequency that could make it somewhat sound like a whistle note, but she was just belting G5s.
