Kelly Clarkson just doesn't stop releasing the hits, does she? After two fantastic singles, Breakaway and Since U Been Gone, the current single Behind These Hazel Eyes is racing up the charts all over the world.
Sounding even angrier than the two singles released previously, her strong vocals impact over the standard background music made up of mostly guitar and drums. After a few rounds of listen, I couldn't help but scream Behind These Hazel Eyes along with the song! Also, the bridge is especially fantastic. It's quite funny how the first American Idol winner went pop (like the delicious-sounding Ms Independent) on her first album and rock on this album. It sounds like she belongs to a rock band, with the cool drums and angsty lyrics, except that she's a solo artist! And a very credible one as well. The sophomore album Breakaway has sold 2 million copies in the US alone. While Since U Been Gone has just moved up a notch to #8 on Billboard this week, Behind These Hazel Eyes jumps up 6 notches to #18 after 6 weeks on the chart. The video is awesome too!
Oh and did you know that her original hair colour was blonde? Talk about trying to break away from the stereotype of young blonde singers!
