  • my demember is what all rock should be. because if all rock albums turn into my december i'm giving up pop for life

  • This song is for me right now a painful tourniquet,but i still listen to him.

    When you are in deep pain you find out more about yourself.

    Even if it's hard ,it's necessary.

  • Your love, a complete mystery to me.

  • is there actually a studio version because this sounds live.

  • there's something so dark but beautiful about this song. it's like she's singing to you in a way. like your sitting in some kind of scary wonderland and kelly clarkson is telling you her story.

    honest and pure, holding back but being vulnerable, that's kelly, and i only wish she never leaves behind her rock side. because that's where she belongs

  • she reminded of THE BEATLES...idk why

  • I know you're busy, I know I'm just one.....why is it so hard?

  • my favorite song ever! <3 I'd love it if she recorded more of this sad music. :-)

  • Anyone else think this sounds a lot like Exit Music (For a Film) by Radiohead?

  • @thomasfan001 OMG yes! I was trying to figure that out! lol

  • @thomasfan001 omg you are so right!i couldn't figure it out...

  • @thomasfan001 Sounds similar...

  • Fantastic song.

  • "How are you so strong?" "What's it like to feel so free?"... I always wondered that when I would looked at people who just seemed so comfortable with who they are, And then I would go home and feel like this song.... WOW.

  • seriously, when I listen to this I just want to lie on the floor

  • @lautour Exactly. I think of my self lying on the floor with one hand on my chest fiddling with the charm on my necklace looking at the ceiling...

  • I like all of Kelly cd. She is one of my favorites. My December is her best.

  • it's like she took words out of my mind. i love her and i can relate to this pretty well.

  • licks

    

  • She pleads with God to allow her to die so that she can be spared the pain of her terrible loneliness and pleads in vain for him to give her any kind of sign of his existence

    I've been there - Thanks Kelly

  • I haven't listened to anything on My December other than "Never Again" and "Sober," but this tempts me to buy the whole album.

  • @leinawerdna On the cd this song has hidden song after it. As fan this is cd I would recommend. It’s her best one in my opinion. 

  • @JonathanH051088 I'm pretty sure everyone's aware that she's speaking to God. Even though this song is extremely emotional I myself think that Hole is by far the best song on My December..Chivas is another favorite of mine & I agree Clive is a fool, Kelly is a true artist.

  • This song is one of the most painfully spiritual, honest, raw, and beautiful I've heard. Definitely my favorite on this album. So moving. And her voice on this track is especially unique and beautiful. Its really too bad that the mainstream missed out on this one.

  • such a sad song. well-written. i'm actually driven into the sadness... T^T

  • open your mind and let the lyrics take hold of your heart.

  • WOW Re<lly! this song makes me cries... always! SO BEAUTIFUL

  • This song always makes me automatically lie on the floor?

  • what a awesome song!!!

  • @861shell YEAH AND THAT IS TRUE!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • This is one of my all time favorite songs by Kelly. I love it and really shows her talent. Completely raw and amazing.

  • This is one of my all time favorite songs by Kelly. I love it and really shows her talent. Completely raw and amazing.

  • This song is perfection. This is what music is about. Ill be honest when i first heard it i didnt like it, but i listened to the words and it blew my freakin mind. More songs should be like this. It got me through a lot.

  • This song is raw emotion.

  • I've had this song on my iPod since I bought this album when it first came out. But I never bothered to listen to it. A while ago I read that she wrote this "at an all time low" or something like that. And lately, I've been feeling like that and finally gave it shot. I now think this song is one of the best on that album.

  • When I listen to this song, i'll go lie on the floor.

  • amazing song.....but why is this song called irvine?

  • @luciarey1

    It has been stated that she wrote it in Irvine California when she was on tour and having a hard time.

  • @KadenceRain thanks :)

  • This song, (not to sound whiny or 'it's all about me'), saved my life last year.

  • I hate the song at 4.14.

  • If I didn't knew better, I would think that it's a Twilight Saga Soundtrack.

  • Comment removed

  • This song has been on my iPod forever, but I just listened for the 1st time today. It has kind of a Feist. I love it.

  • AHHH One of my most favorite songs of ALL time. Dang She is a powerful woman.

  • Kelly's talent covers so many styles of singing and performance.... she's truly remarkable!!! So versatile and a voice that is thrilling!!!! I look forward to so many years of listening to this great star! Go Kelly!!! Love you!!!

  • It reminds me one tree hill. i think it was one of the songs of the fifth season. this song's amazing.

  • this song is my life right now, how I feel... I don't understand it use to be so great, and now so dark... I don't know how to get up from this low spot, it seems to only get worse.. I dont know...

  • @Scottmoca2 you're not alone. I'm feeling the exact same way right now. Thats why I turn to this song all the time. I relate so much. I just feel very alone all the time. I don't know how to deal with it sometimes...

  • Comment removed

  • i love it. nuff said.

  • was sitting in class today and this song came on , id never listend to it and i completely got lost in the music .... such a goodsong

  • i love this song

    because i know that feeling

    :(

    i just ..

    dont know

    whats goign to happened to my life

  • @itissohard1 Stay strong girl or guy (if you could please tell me if you are female or male because I don't want to refer to the wrong sex) you need to stay strong and work your way through things. And because what you wrote is scaring me also, I've decided to befriend you. So I'm redzoro92 but you can call me Pete. I hope we can become good online pals. Later

  • this is my fave kelly song ever...she should do more songs like this, her voice is just...i dont know....amazing?! :)

  • words do not give justice to how beautiful this song is. kelly is just too amazing. and i can't believe i haven't heard this song until now.

  • Its almost scary listening to it, and thinking about what couldve happened. I really do thank God she had the strength to carry on, because I honestly do not know how I would get through things if she didnt.

  • omg ..

    i have to cry when i hear this song .. !!

    it remembers me of my boyfriend ( ♥ ), my two best friends ( ♥ ), my dad and my brother .. i lost them all .. !!

    in december my boyfriend and my best friend ..

    in january my dad and my brother ..

    and in january my other best friend .. ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

    miss you all .. :(

    RIP .. stefan ( ♥ ) .. noni (BF) .. agi (BF).. daddy .. simon .. ♥ ♥ love you .. miss you .. need you

  • Shit,I am crying this song hit my weak spot.

  • the day i heard this for the first time was the day of my mums funeral i always associate this song with her .one of my favourites of her best she has ever done

  • she sounds like eva cassidy

  • I think she wrote this about God. She is a Christian after all. And we have trials in our lives I think Kelly was really loosing faith or something. GOD BLESS HER <3

  • @brunetteDUH its close to that its about her singing to god about wanting to kill her self

  • It is.

  • I wish she would sing more songs like this. It shows her true talent and her ability to portray emotion through her music. I really don't like many songs by her, but this made me look at her differently

  • This is the most underrated album I have ever heard. Why did it not get more recognation and awards I will never know? This is so different and unique. It has so much emotion to it. The way they put songs together and the lyrics are so emotional. This song is one of the favorites off of My December.

  • This song has more pure raw emotion than most songs that weren't released by pop artists. When I heard this for the first time It took me to my knees. I wish music these days still had the emotional core that it use to... This song delivers that.

  • @KadenceRain

    gregory alan isakov - 3am

  • @pnizzzi

    Thanks , I will check that out for sure!

  • @KadenceRain great post!!

  • @chasechunt

    =)

  • @KadenceRain I agree. That's why she is my fav female singer of all time!

  • 3:07 i love her hair it looks just like my friends .x

  • OMG Just the best song Ever!!

  • i lived in irvine CA for 12 years

  • lol, same :P

  • I absolutely love this style of Kelly, it's so unique from her usual stuff. I love it.

    I really love the picture for Sober, I think it is one of the prettiest I've seen of her.

  • This song is so haunting and angelic at the same time. You can relate to her pain in this song, therefore you get lost in the music.

    Absolutely wonderful.

  • you're right. when at times I listen to this it made me cry.. I had a terrible day and when i listen to this it made me feel better. Just like a pain reliever. She said on her interview that "My december" is a "free therapy" which is about pain and everything that she experiences and want her fans to relate.. I cry every songs she wrote and "My december" to me which i say is like a "Diary" a ghostly and more haunting which i say and is about darkness in her life. I just lovveeee herrr..

  • and even more... this song was recorded on her mac... you can hear the click. she took the original vocal to the studio with a better lead track recorded. sung one time. the demo is even more raw without that reverb

  • can you hear original demo of this somewhere?

  • I'm still listening to this song it's brilliant and god she is amazing song writer she deserves more respect and much more fame. I'm glad kelly isn't an attention seeker like miley cyrus, britney spears, christina aguilera and stuff, Celebritys way of getting more fame is basically do drugs, go crazy and drink to much like britney, And make out with a hot dude or basically get a baby like angelina.

    Kelly hasn't done neither and she's still so famous i'm impressed by her amazing she rules.

  • This is so beautiful, Kelly Clarkson put everything she had into this song, enjoying every single moment of it...

    This is my personal favourite of hers...

    I love it. <3

    : )

  • Hacía tiempo que no escuchaba una canción tan preciosa. Gracias! :)

  • She wrote this song on a piece of toilet paper after her concert in Irvine and she was probally crying i have no idea why probally about something really sad and during concert you can tell she's very sad look up videos can hear in her voice to.

    She agreed to only sing this once and no more and she did and this is what it turned out to be, she only sang this once and got it so emotionally soulfully and perfect amazing on just one try amazing singer the greatest one we'll ever have.

  • she was apparently so burnt out from everything that she couldn't smile after her Irvine show and had to cancel her meet-and-greet, which she never does.

    This was written at the lowest part of her life, in the Irvine bathroom, like you said.

  • .........:X.........

  • far better than all her other songs together...

  • normally, I'm not a HUGE fan of Kelly Clarkson, but my god, this song is simply beautiful! It really hits the soul.

  • Talk about having soul! lol

  • i didn't think this song was so special the first time i heard it, which was like when it came out...

    but now, it's like.. one of my favorites!!!

  • This is the best song of all time!

  • love this song its wierd this song goes on for 8:48 seconds cuz theres a break then another liitle song its well cool :D

  • That's called a hidden track, a lot of artists put them on their CDs. It's usually the last song, and after the song whose name is on the CD tracklist, there will be a lot of silence, and then there's another song. Usually if you see any track that's longer than 5 minutes, it's got a hidden track at the end.

  • Kelly's new album (All I Ever Wanted) is now No.1 in US and Canada, No.2 in Australia, No.3 in UK, and No.4 in Germany. Keep buying, people, no matter where you are: US, Canada, Australia, UK, Germany, France, Spain, Japan, Taiwan, Mexico, Singapore, Belgium, Israel, Netherlands, Norway, Ireland, Philippines, China, Greece, Sweden, New Zealand, India, Italy, Pakistan, Poland, Argentina, Chile, Hong Kong, Switzerland, ---------.

    What countries are all the Kelly fans from?

  • I love love this song. So perfect.

  • haha everywhere i go on youtube i come across a random twilight comment, e.g when im watching one of my fav songs like this one, twilighters are everywhere!

  • did you listen to the lyrics? This isn't /about/ Irvine.

    (she titled it that cuz she was in Irvine when she wrote it.)

  • sounds very depressing

    like irvine

    im not trying to bash on her at all

    trust me

    i love kelly clarkson

  • This song is so haunting. Longing, lonely, I love it but you gotta be in the mood for it, it's not something you just put on.

  • crazkid...that made my day

  • Are you kidding? Irvine rocks!!! Wait is there more than one Irvines?

  • In the states I thin there's one in Jersey (or somewhere on the east coast) and one in So. Cal. The Irvine she titled this song after is the So. Cal. one.

  • Yeah. I have a few cousins who live there.

  • ronan it's about god ^^ if you understand that she sings about god / people it's mostly about how her life is atm and she has a part B of this song on her new album that will be coming out soon :) i cant wait to hear it ^^ i think it's gona be a little more cheered up since in the song she sings she's moved on and is happy so she is moved on with her old jackass guy ^^

  • I'm waiting for Part 2/Part B aswell!! I can't wait to hear it. I wonder if it'll have the same backing instrumental?

  • omg so beautiful.. I used to live in Irvine so I was like what ? a song called Irvine ? But now I know where it is come from ....

    and so beautiful....

  • this song is already available in the album of One Tree Hill Soundtrack season5. i'm french and i don't undrestand this lyrics but i think her voice and melody are so beautiful....

  • if you're french and can't understand the lyrics, how are you commenting in such flawless english?

    si vous êtes français et ne peuvent pas comprendre les paroles, comment êtes-vous dans de tels commentaires sans faille english?

  • I mastery the ecrit but I have difficulty with the pronunciation especially on songs.

  • they should use this song in new moon, the sequel to twilight. =)

  • sounds like feist! love it

  • Clarkson described this on her record label's website as "the saddest song I've ever written." She added: "The song is a prayer from the lowest point in my life. There comes a time when you feel like, if He's up there, God, Allah or whatever you want to call Him, is the only one that can help me out. After that night, I know there's someone or something out there looking out for me."

  • This was written by Kelly Clarkson in Irvine, California while on tour. She wrote it in the bathroom of her dressing room while performing at the Irvine Verizon Wireless Amphi. Clarkson told The DM"I had reached my lowest point. I thought: 'I don't want to smile or talk about myself, or do a photo shoot. I don't want to do anything.' 4 or 5 yrs straight of doing this stuff caught up on me. Everyone wanted to keep it going and I couldn't. Even though I love my job, I couldn't do it all the time."

  • this song is about god

  • how do u know that?

  • there's something about this song. idk what it is, but I love it!

  • i am writing a book, and i listen to it while i am writing, and it keeps away writers block amazingly. I love it.

  • i just love it

  • KELLY YOU ROCK!!

  • There is just something distinctly exquisite about this song!!!!

    It takes me to another world...and I love it there!

  • Wow. I'd never heard this song before. It's so good. And I live in Irvine. :)

  • Don't you know anything about internet safety?

  • lol

  • wonderful

  • my dad's a musician and he even told me he liked this song, and asked me who it was. beautiful ballad, i love the jazz sound. kelly you rock, keep making excellent music.

  • ooh, of course, I was wrong, I'm sorry, California :P

    whatver, it's a great song

  • Irvine is also a city in California

  • thats where she wrote it

  • hmm.. what does irvine mean?

  • Irvine is a town in UK

    it's also a male person name

    The song is amazing, I don't like Kelly Clarkson but this song has surprised me.

  • yes, it's a really great song. she should make more songs like this one :)

    thank you :)

  • she wrote it in irvine, california

  • she said she wrote the song 'irvine' because she was on tour in irvine one time and she was feeling so depressed that after the concert, she cancelled a meet and greet and wrote this song on the floor of the bathroom at the venue. amazing singer, amazing song.

  • Powdered milk? Cool!

  • Yes. About God. She says so on a MTV thing TRL or something. It's on Youtube.She also had to prank call people pretending to be Miss Mexico and try to get people to buy powdered milk.

  • I love the mood this song puts me in. It's so relaxing...

  • try feist ;) this song sounds very similar, especially her voice :D

  • yahhhhhhh ME too I LOve this song She actualy talking to God I does it like her sometimes This song make me cry

  • She may sing God but that doesn't mean anything. For once is it so hard to drop religion?

  • this song is so beautiful

    love it <3

  • Does she have to spell it out for you people? Honestly if you won't listen to the lyrics then don't comment. It's to God. She is talking to God. She said it herself, it's like a prayer to God. There. Now shut up what it's about and enjoy how beautiful it is.

  • i cant hear this this song and not cry

    this is absoluty brilliant.

  • sad song.

    i can totally relate

    to it.love you kelly<3(:

  • "Your heart is really something

    Your love, a complete mystery to me" Tells it all..

  • if you pay very close attention to the song you might understand what it is about. her faith in god.

  • Irvine is also my last name...

  • It's a city in California, she wrote this song in a bathroom after a venue in Irvine, CA.

  • what does Irvine mean??

  • this is sooo different from what she usually sings...it doesn't sound like her but its a nice song

  • why? she's versatile - she's sang r&b, country, opera, jazz, rock

  • I've never heard Kelly Clarkson sing opera... In which song???

  • She just sang Ave Maria a few days ago to the Pope, do a search for that.

  • no this was strictly a prayer to God, and it was not necessarily because someone broke up with her, she actually hasn't and may not reveal what it is about, but it was somewhat about betrayal in her life. She just was really depressed, it just seems like it is to God...

  • ooh this is in one tree hill! ep 1 s 5!

  • yep XD

  • "irvine" is a city in california. she was performing at the verizon ampitheater and wrote this on the bath room floor.

  • I LOVE THIS SONG!!!

  • why?

  • its a song about her talking to god
