This is a case of the wrong artist getting the song. I like Carrie's version but it doesn't hold a candle to the way Kelly does it. She's so damn soulful and vulnerable with the lyrics and the way she plays around with the original arrangement. It proves the difference in talent between her and Carrie.
@bethelducky I couldn't agree more. I really wish Kelly could release the song. There's just no comparison between the 2. I think Kelly is the best singer out there by far.
I think they're both good versions for diffferent reasons. Why make it in to a compitition. They can both sing amazingly well and we know this. So grow up and give them both the credit they deserve. They both won idol and deserved it. Just stop trashing.
@LittyCat82 It's not trashing it's being honest. Everyone has given Carrie credit where credit is due but Carrie cannot even come close to Kelly on this one.
I love love love this song, and I wish Kelly would record it because I only have Carrie's version on my ipod, and this performance is so superior to Carrie's. Carrie can't mix up her vocals like Kelly, nor can she make those high notes sound effortless, and there's no emotion in Carrie's voice. I wish I could sing 1% as good as Carrie, but Kelly is just on another plane.
ALL WHO DISLIKED THIS VIDEO IS CARRIE FANS, let's face it.. both are talented.. and has nice range and personality.. but kelly's voice is just way soulful and it demands attention.. stop being idiot repeating who had bigger range and who sold more.. Kelly got 3.2 octave range, carrie got 2.3.. kelly sold 23million albums and 36 million singles.. kelly belts 6 notes higher than carrie.. and an octave higher.. KELLY IS BETTER.. DEAL WITH IT! A FACT! not saying carrie sucks coz she is very talented
@carshe209 To be fair, Carrie's lack of a proper mixing technique hinders her ability to "belt" as high as Kelly does; Carrie sticks to a very dominant, throat-driven chest voice, which makes it more difficult to belt higher pitches than would a good mixing technique. But it's not a 6 note difference....it's a 3 1/2 note difference. Carrie's highest belt is F#5...Kelly's is C6. But again, Kelly knows how to mix her voice up there, and does it very very well, so her C6 is very very head-driven.
Yeah, I prefer this to Carrie's... With Carrie's performance I mostly remember her super long note and the strange way she stressed words in the chorus: "You-say-you'll... COOOOME!"
Thanks for posting... I now have tidal waves of goose bumps. She's got to be the most underrated singer ever, most people don't give her the credit she deserves. The most amazing voice, LOVE HER!!!
This is the voice of angel... :D

When Carrie sings this it sends her right back to the Idol's stage. Kelly is light years ahead in talent.

Kelly's version is more soulful and more emotional. I believe Kelly taps in to the heartbreak of the song better than Carrie does.
