Kelly Clarkson covers Cardigan’s “Lovefool”
Kelly Clarkson also showed off her soft side during the week of love. She previously announced that she’s celebrating singles awareness week leading up to Valentine’s Day. She previously performed Cardigan’s 1996 hit song Lovefool on Tuesday, February 9.
For her version, Kelly stood at the microphone with her trademark purple lights shining down on her and her band. She stuck to the original version before she heads into the song. But she didn’t let her powerhouse vocals overpower the song. Instead, she made it all her own.
Of course, Kelly’s fans were in love with her cover of the song from the Swedish band.
- “Oh here she is again… singing like she owns the song… love you kelly.”
- “Never knew this song could be covered and sounded as cool as this. I’m lovin’ it!”
- “A classic singing a classic.”
- “Here goes Kelly again stealing my heart and singing like the goddess that she is. I just keep falling inlove. 🌻❤️🥺🔥”
- “I really thought that this song AGED pretty bad that’s why I stopped listening to it. But, just now, listening to Kelly sing it again, I realized how wonderful and awesome Lovefool is. It really is a CLASSIC.”
As fans know, Kelly is in the midst of her divorce from Brandon Blackstock. But it’s not the first time that she’s sung a sad song. She previously covered Another Sad Love Song by Toni Braxton. She also revisited the ’90s last month when she covered Soul Asylum’s Runaway Train.
