The Voice coach Kelly Clarkson has released a new single called “I’d Be Lyin’,” and fans are loving the upbeat track. This is Clarkson’s first new music release in over a year, as she returns to her Las Vegas residency.
Kelly Clarkson Releases New Single ‘I’d Be Lyin”
As usual, American Idol winner Clarkson shows off her powerhouse voice on the new single “I’d Be Lyin’.” The track starts off strong, with a winky reference to one of Clarkson’s biggest hits, “Since U Been Gone.”
“It’s not the same without ya, you are right where I belong / I can’t remember a time I was happy since you’ve been gone,” Clarkson sings to open the song. However, she follows this up with, “Ain’t what I’m sayin’ / If I said that then / You’d hear your truth, and / I’d be lyin’, no, no, no.”
Fans in the comments of the song’s visualizer on YouTube expressed excitement that Clarkson seems to be embracing her pop rock roots with this new music. One user wrote, “Man I feel like 2000s again.” Several commenters also praised Clarkson’s vocals, particularly on the song’s soaring bridge.
A new single isn’t the only thing Kelly Clarkson fans have to be excited about this week. The singer is also returning to her “Studio Sessions” residency at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas. Clarkson has shows lined up through August 15.
When announcing the release of “I’d Be Lyin'” on her Instagram account Friday, Clarkson teased that she would be adding the new song to her Las Vegas setlist. The singer is also preparing to say goodbye to her eponymous talk show later this year, and she’ll be a coach on The Voice Season 30 started September 21.
