Over the years, many winners of\u00a0<em>American Idol<\/em>\u00a0found themselves struggling when it came to navigating the music industry. But for Clarkson, she let her voice lead the way as she produced hit songs like \u201cStronger\u201d, \u201cBecause of You\u201d, and \u201cSince U Been Gone.\u201d Selling millions of albums and winning three Grammy Awards, Clarkson recently showcased her wide range when she covered Benson Boone\u2019s \u201cBeautiful Things.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For any fan of\u00a0<em>The Kelly Clarkson Show<\/em>, they know besides speaking with celebrities and fellow musicians,\u00a0Clarkson\u00a0will prove her talent with the Kellyoke segment. Having covered some of the most iconic songs, the host decided to sing \u201cBeautiful Things\u201d on her talk show on June 11. Keeping the same rhythm of Boone\u2019s hit songs, Clarkson didn\u2019t shy away from the strong vocals that accompanied the chorus. Not skipping a beat, the hitmaker even hit the high notes with relative ease.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wMAMxn1E\"><\/div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"twitter-tweet twitter-tweet-rendered\"><iframe id=\"twitter-widget-0\" class=\"\" title=\"X Post\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/embed\/Tweet.html?creatorScreenName=AmerSongwriter&amp;dnt=true&amp;embedId=twitter-widget-0&amp;features=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%3D%3D&amp;frame=false&amp;hideCard=false&amp;hideThread=false&amp;id=1800673308024922550&amp;lang=en&amp;origin=https%3A%2F%2Famericansongwriter.com%2Fkelly-clarkson-fans-never-want-to-hear-the-original-again-after-she-owns-this-cover-of-benson-boones-beautiful-things%2F&amp;sessionId=af0f9ef9a3526612a62ea729e7ce3ccef13fb46a&amp;siteScreenName=AmerSongwriter&amp;theme=light&amp;widgetsVersion=2615f7e52b7e0%3A1702314776716&amp;width=550px\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-tweet-id=\"1800673308024922550\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-origwidth=\"\" data-origheight=\"\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p>Shocked by her wide range in music, fans gushed over the performance, writing, \u201cI never want to hear the original again.\u201d Another fan added, \u201cNow she needs to record and release the full version!!!\u201d And one comment read, \u201cThis Queen can do no wrong!\u201d<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"h-kelly-clarkson-and-benson-boone-share-unique-connection\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Kelly Clarkson And Benson Boone Share Unique Connection<\/h3>\n<p>Much like\u00a0Clarkson, Boone found himself standing on the\u00a0<em>American Idol<\/em>\u00a0stage back in 2021 during the 19th season.
