10 Kelly Clarkson Songs We Can't Get Out of Our Heads

• 10. “Piece by Piece” (2017)

  Share

  A song was written about the pain her father caused her when he left the family when Kelly was just six years old. The song is actually a sequel to her 2005 song "Because Of You." It's powerful for sure and was also the title of her seventh studio album. The version of this song she sang on ‘American Idol’ in 2017 was nominated for a Grammy for Best Pop Solo Performance.

• 9. “A Moment Like This” (2002)

  Share

  This song was released as her debut single. Later, it was included in her debut studio album, ‘Thankful’ (2003). "A Moment Like This" was written to be the first single for the winner of the first season of ‘American Idol.’

• 8. “My Life Would Suck Without You” (2009)

  Share

  Reviews for this song were mixed, but TIME named it the best song of 2009.
• 7. “Heartbeat Song” (2015)

  Share

  This beat just won't quit. Lyrically, it’s about meeting someone who restores the narrator’s faith in love.

• 6. “Mr. Know It All” (2011)

  Share

  When this song was first released, Clarkson described the song as a "vocally raw record" and said that she and her producers strove to record her voice as it is heard at live performances, using as little auto-tune processing as possible.

• 5. “Breakaway” (2004)

  Share

  A classic hit pop song. It was initially intended for Avril Lavigne's debut studio album. After being deemed unsuitable for the album, it was passed to Kelly to be recorded as a soundtrack for the film ‘The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement.’
• 4. “Miss Independent” (2003)

  Share

  A top ten hit that Clarkson's record label didn't want to release as a single, but Kelly insisted. She co-wrote the song with Christina Aguilera, Rhett Lawrence, and Matt Morris.

• 3. “Since U Been Gone” (2004)

  Share

  This may be the song most closely related to Kelly Clarkson. Clarkson performed "Since U Been Gone" at the 2005 MTV Video Music Awards and at the 2006 BRIT Awards. Fun fact: The song was first given to Hilary Duff, but she rejected it because she could not reach its higher notes.

• 2. “Stronger (What Doesn’t Kill You)” (2012)

  Share

  What a great song to get anyone through a breakup. The song's accompanying music video incorporates the theme of a global flash mob dance, featuring submitted videos of people dancing to the song.
• 1. ” Because of You” (2005)

  Share

  It is just one of the most honest and heartbreaking songs. One line in the song just kills, saying, "My heart can't possibly break / When it wasn't even whole to start with." Kelly's emotional performance of the song on the record is just excellent. Clarkson even wrote the treatment for the video herself to reflect the pain that she felt due to her parents' divorce.
