I’m not one for pop, but that tune “Miss Independant” is pretty good. The bridge needs some work but it’s catchy. ---

Don’t you think it sounds exactly like the new Christina Aguilera (that I can’t stand!)?? I was shocked, then I heard she wrote the song for Kelly… It is catchy. ---

Christina A. is exactly who I thought it sounded like. It’s crap, anyway. She’s capable of much better. If she’s just gonna churn out the same stuff we have already, why bother having her around? ---

I really don’t know Chistina A but I’m surprised to hear she writes her own songs based on what little info I know. ---

I LIKE IT. I really didn’t think I’d end up being a “Kelly Clarkson Fan” and I’m still not totally sure I am one, but I think she sings good, and I do like that new song. Very catchy! It’s been in my head since I saw a promo for her singing it on American Idol a few weeks ago, and I only just heard the whole song last night. ---

oh, sorry Grace, I meant written BY Aguilera, I don’t know if she wrote it specifically for Clarkson or not…?
