When do we get a tracklist? Not sold on that song yet, but the concept has me piqued.

 

[GNL]

She really should just release studio versions of all the songs she performs on her chat show tbh.

 

[ManicKangaroo]

When do we get a tracklist?

1. Blue Bayou
2. Call Out My Name
3. Happier Than Ever
4. Queen Of The Night
5. Trampoline
6. Fake Plastic Trees

 

[straightorbroken]

Ok I am sold on Queen of the Night and Fake Plastic Trees (well I have hopes for them). I don't know the others.

 

[Pipo]

5. Trampoline

this?

Spoiler

 

[Christian]

I was hoping for How Soon Is Now and Arcade

 

[GNL]

1. Blue Bayou

Little Ronstadtsters, our time has come.

 

[ManicKangaroo]

this?

Spoiler

Yes

 

[Jark]

OK I hate to say it but I fear this cover of Happier Than Ever may actually leave the original in the dust.

 

[straightorbroken]

I was watching Kell interview Alanis. If anyone remembers Shannel on season 1 of Drag Race, it was very that

 

[POP!]

New album not coming anytime soon, but sounds like a full on divorce album will be coming after she takes a break this summer. I assume we won't get it until fall 2023. These Kellyoke EP(s) will bridge the gap.

 

[GNL]

OK I hate to say it but I fear this cover of Happier Than Ever may actually leave the original in the dust.

It couldn't be MORE suited to her voice.

Skewer your ex through the medium of cover songs, QUEEN.

 

[Pipo]

It couldn't be MORE suited to her voice.

My thoughts exactly, it suits her voice very well. I love the original but Billie does sound strained in some bits, whereas Kelly just belts and belts without breaking

 

[GNL]

EP out today.

The 'Queen of the Night' cover FUCKS.

 

[Loufoque]

The second half of Happier Than Ever floors me.

 

[Loufoque]

I like QOTN too, but the problem is that no one can do Whitney like Whitney. The tone, the phrasing, the attitude was just the stuff of a legendary legend.

THIS. You just shouldn't BOTHER. It sounds actual karaoke.

 

[Christian]

Bloody HELL at "Happier Than Ever"

WHAT a COVER!

 

[Pipo]

her version of Call Out My Name is proof that the Weeknd should sometimes write songs for other artists.

Little Ronstadtsters, our time has come.

Happier Than Ever is incredible. If only her self-penned stuff was this interesting!

 

[POP!]

Happier Than Ever is incredible. If only her self-penned stuff was this interesting!

I don’t think it’s miles apart from stuff like “Sober” tbh…

Her “Fake Plastic Trees” is also lovely.

 

[funky]

Oh Kelly, don't attempt Whitney.

And I say this as someone who thinks Kelly has a great voice. She sounds great when covering acoustic / folk / Americana type stuff.

 

[POP!]

 

[POP!]

Well Kelly sounds good at least

 

[POP!]

Oooh

 

[Apoca]

This one is doing the rounds on twitter aka bring on the 90s RnB tinged album, please thanks.

 

[Jark]

such an effortless slay. she's so great.

 

[Berly]

The Breakaway duet with Sam Smith is pretty gorj

 

[Apoca]

such an effortless slay. she's so great.

Exactly, effortless is the word. There's something so comforting about a seasoned pro stepping to the mic. You know they'll always swing and hit it out of the park.

 

[ILL ADVISED]

This is superb

 

[POP!]

Love this too

 

[Jark]

that Mitski cover is absolutely sensational

 

[POP!]

 

[Pipo]

Kelly covering this song was not on my Bingo card, let's goooo

 

[untilted]

Love this too

Oh this is wow
