When it rains it pours, and Kelly Clarkson just shared a lot of new details about her new single and album! She took to Twitter in the wee hours to set the record straight and to answer some of her fans’ pressing questions.
Perhaps the biggest and most important news came from her
last tweet, in which she gave fans some mysterious hints about her upcoming
single:
2 clues for the
first single ….Proof of life & Dr. Dre #TheNextEpisode

This may seem puzzling to most people, but some clever fans
have figured it out already. We’re 99% sure that the answer to this puzzle clue
is “Heartbeat Song.” If hearts are the proof of life, and Beats by Dre is what
Kelly means, this song fits perfectly.
Way back in spring 2014, “Heartbeat Song” was registered on
ASCAP. Kelly co-wrote it along with Kara DioGuardi, Audra Mae, and Jason
Evigan. It’s great to know the lead single was written by Kelly!
And that’s not all. Kelly mentioned a few months ago that
the single will be coming out in January. This plan has not changed, so be
ready for a new single within the next few weeks.
@KCAustralia yes

Now to address those pesky rumors: The first single is NOT
going to be a duet. The first single will be just Kelly, and we will have to
wait a little longer to hear the duet.

And more on the duet: This male artist is someone that Kelly
has sang with before. Who could it be? Kelly has sang with John Legend, Adam
Levine, Robin Thicke, Chris Daughtry, and at least a dozen country singers.
We’re hoping the duet is not with a country artist. Not that we dislike
country, but nearly all of Kelly’s duets so far have been in that genre. We’re ready for a proper pop duet this time
around. Out of the guys Kelly has sang with before, we’re putting our money on
either John Legend or Adam Levine. We could be wrong, but that’s our guess for
now.
Oh and people also
keep asking about the duet on the record. Here's a hint ....this wasn't our
first time to sing together :)

Note: It is a bit disappointing that the duet partner won’t
be Bruno Mars as rumored. Hopefully it can happen in the future.
While we’re on the topic of genres, it looks like the two
separate pop and country albums plan is out. Although Kelly promises this
record will be pop, it has plenty of influence from other genres.
People keep
asking. My next album is pop. But I am always influenced by music I love, which
is pop-rock/country/r&b/dance #whoknowswhatsnext

As previously reported, Kelly might have worked with Sia on
her new record:
@KCAustralia maybe
— Kelly Clarkson

“Maybe” probably either means “Yes, but it’s a surprise so
I’m not telling you yet” or “Yes, but we have to confirm the track list, and I
don’t want to promise something that isn’t actually going to happen.” Consider
us ready for Kelly’s own “Chandelier.”
@Finnishgirl84
soon :) but really can't wait for y'all to hear the entire album! It's so
great! It's gonna be a fun record to tour with!

That’s so much exciting news! We’re excited to hear Kelly’s
new, non-duet single this month. “Heartbeat Song” sounds like a great first
single for the new album! The duet will remain under wraps a little longer, but
hopefully we’ll have a lot more information on the album in the coming weeks.
Kelly’s album is due out this spring, so we’re not too far off now. You can
catch up on everything we know about the album, and be sure to check out a list
of known song titles.
This is just the beginning, so keep checking back here for
all the latest Kelly Clarkson music news.
But wait, that's not all, Hidden Jams also makes an article called New Kelly Clarkson Songs Registered. So let's check it out, shall we?
New Kelly Clarkson Songs Registered
Last month, a few new Kelly Clarkson song titles popped up
on BMI. Although it’s possible one of these may appear on her upcoming 6th
studio album, due out this spring, nothing is confirmed yet.
“I Love You For Trying” is the most promising of the two
songs here. The songwriters are best known for composing country songs. Dave
Berg has worked with country stars like Reba McEntire, Carrie Underwood, and
Blake Shelton, but has also worked in other genres as well. Marty Dodson is
also mainly a country writer, and has worked with Carrie Underwood, George
Straight, and Rascal Flatts, as well as the pop rock band Plain White T’s. Christina Bell, on the other hand, is more of
a pop writer based in Nashville. If this song is for Kelly, it will likely have
more of a country sound.
“In Love Alone” is unlikely to be on Kelly’s new album. It
was already released by the Dave Harris Project featuring Michael Willet in May
2013. If anything, Kelly probably only recorded a demo of the song.
Neither of these songs was written by Kelly, but of the two,
“I Love You For Trying” looks like the more promising track and is more likely
to appear on her upcoming album.
Kelly’s lead single is coming out this month, and more news
about her album will be announced in the coming weeks. You can check out our
full recap of everything we know about Kelly’s new album so far, and also look
over our list of known song titles that could appear on the record. Keep
checking back here for more of the latest Kelly Clarkson music news.
OK, that's it for this article.What you you think? Are you exciting for more Kelly Clarkson in 2015? Do you think her 2015 lead single might going to be her number 1 2015 single? What are your thoughts on Kelly Clarkson's upcoming 2015 album? Sound off below!
