Product description \American Idol" Kelly Clarkson's moment has come with the release of her first solo album. Genre: Popular Music Media Format: Compact Disk Rating: Release Date: 15-APR-2003""" Amazon.com Kelly Clarkson, the toothsome winner of Fox TV's first American Idol competition shows that her prime-time win was no fluke. She blithely skips through octaves and genres like a seasoned pro, belting out power ballads like hooky "Low" and the Diane Warren-penned "Some Kind of Miracle," with the aplomb of Pat Benatar in her prime. Clarkson tackles the neo-gospel "Anytime" without flinching, then shows some dirty street cred as she growls through "Miss Independent," a song she penned with Christina Aguilera. But Miss Independent would be a gross misnomer; despite the fact Clarkson co-wrote four of the album's tunes. Clarkson not only had uber record exec/executive producer Clive Davis at her disposal, but an arsenal of producers and songwriters to make sure she didn't make a creative misstep. Despite Clarkson's sublime vocal talents, excessive gloss at times overwhelms the quirky charm and personality she displayed on Idol. --Jaan UhelszkiASIN: B00007GUIOVSKU: GGV.B00007GUIO.LNCondition: Like NewAuthor/Artist:Clarkson, KellyBinding: Audio CD
