    She is wildly underrated as a vocalist. She's truly one if the best female vocalists of our time. Her pitch, range, vibrato, phrasing, and overall texture and artistry sets her aside. She's magnificent!

      @@cathyv3424 If you watch the compilation of all of her American Idol performances, you'll see how incredible her voice was back at the start. Her contract with the "Idol" people forced her to sing songs that they were trying to market but not necessarily the best showcases for her talent. Once she had served her contract and went out in her own is when HER songs, and HER true style came through. She's even become more stellar as the years have gone by, but she (in my opinion) has never been named when the discussion of "great female vocalists" is brought up. Mariah, Adele, Whitney (rest in peace), Ariana, and many more amazing women are always brought up...never is Kelly put in that group even though she shreds! Anyway, thanks for the comment! Much love! Have a great night!

      I picked her right out from the beginning also. I am not sure that it was the audition video (cuz I didn't really watch those episodes) but when I saw the first top "whatever" video with her in it... I thought, "there's the one that will win." And throughout all the eliminations, I kept with my judgement... she was clearly the best... and still is...

    She was so great back then, but boy has she grown so much as an artist since then. She's the real deal. She's probably one of the greatest cover artists out there too. Literally anything she covers is gold. This was incredible to watch. I was pretty young when this first season came out, and I thought I watched it all, but I don't think I saw some of those first performances before. Just her growth during her time on the show from beginning to end was so cool to watch. It's like she leveled up during the show, and then catapulted. I couldn't imagine being against her in that season, haha.

      Max Powell They’re “supposed” to be authentic but they’re just reality tv shows at the end of the day. That’s why there’s always heartfelt stories and cuts to the judges/audience emotions so often. They create unnecessary drama and suspense to provide entertainment. Most of the time the winner is predetermined anyway.

      @@DJTiger-tp2kc I disagree. The show itself blew up and while they weren't going to the let the first winner fail, Kelly's sucess as just the winner of Idol was very small. They rushed the second season, gave them twice as many episodes and said F**K the first season pretty much. Hell, Clive would have had Ruben and Clays CDs out at the same time as Justin and Tamyra's...which makes ZERO sense. 90% of Kelly's success has NOTHING to do with idol. Her being marketed and signed as an International artist is why she is the superstar she is. People who never saw her on idol (including her best selling album with a completely different fan base) is what kept her career. Had it been just Idol as her sole promotional vehicle (like they did with Tamyra briefly for the second half of S3 ..even putting her on that seasons tour and starting a label for her release) and then NOTHING.

Saddest part is she didn't get the same recognition throughout her career, even though she proved shes an absolutely outstanding vocalist. 2 Best Pop Vocal Grammy's is something quite impressive though.

      When America Idol first came out it was very much a capella. No big bands playing behind them so we really were just hearing the contestants vocals. Now all these singing shows have too much background music playing so it’s hard to hear the contestants and they’re also extremely nervous. But Kelly Clarkson has always been really great at projecting her voice. Not many contestants can do that while at the same time being nervous.

    It is fun to go back and watch the humble beginnings of the show- Kelly Clarkson put the show on the map! She's one of the main reasons for season one's success. It showed the potential of this competition. Many other contestants, even though some were very good, sounded like karaoke compared to her, she was in a totally different class of singers. There's a difference from being very good to being star quality great. Every one of her performances was concert quality singing.

Kelly's voice is out of this world. She can literally do ANYTHING with her voice. EVERYTHING. I mean, who would've ever thought to take Natural Woman to that level? And how many people could've successfully pulled that note off? She displayed virtuoisity on that platform that goes unparalleled to this very day. What a voice.

I do notice her vocal fatigue setting in around Top 4, she had bronchitis and kept going and even won the whole damn thing. That’s extremely rare ability to possess as a singer. Especially the big ballads she sings. She’s truly always been gifted. She’s very underrated in the industry.
