“Never Again” climbed its way to #8 on the Billboard Hot 100; respectable, but probably better news to Clive than Kelly. So the label push is on to launch single #2 from My December, “Sober,” which takes a little over three minutes for Kelly to sing about three months, the state of her heart, and being sober.
Kelly Clarkson – “Sober” (QT | Real | WMA)
Prediction #1: This will not chart higher than “Never Again.”
Prediction #2: Clive Davis will celebrate with a drink in his bungalow.
When are we gonna hear that Mike Watt jam? If you need ‘em, “Sober” lyrics after the jump.
“Sober”
And I don?t know
This could break my heart or save me
Nothing?s real
Until you let go completely
So here I go with all my thoughts I?ve been saving
So here I go with all my fears weighing on me
Three months and I?m still sober
Picked all my weeds but kept the flowers
But I know it?s never really over
And I don?t know
I could crash and burn but maybe
At the end of this road I might catch a glimpse of me
So I won?t worry about my timing, I want to get it right
No comparing, second guessing, no not this time
Three months and I?m still breathing
Been a long road since those hands I left my tears in but I know
It?s never really over, no
Wake up
Three months and I?m still standing here
Three months and I?m getting better yeah
Three months and I still am
Three months and it?s still harder now
Three months I?ve been living here without you now
Three months yeah, three months
Three months and I?m still breathing
Three months and I still remember it
Three months and I wake up
Three months and I?m still sober
Picked all my weeds but kept the flowers









































OK… what does that have to do with a Sober music video?
You know what? To hell with Kelly Clarkson. To hell with her, I say. If she can’t accept me for who I am, male-pattern baldness, spare tire and all, I damn well ain’t gonna change for her.
“Dw., get my face tattooed on your bum!”
“Dw., get a Prince Albert bolt on your wang!”
No, Kelly. Not this time. What we once had was special and magical, but to paraphrase Barbara Streisand, my wang belongs to me.
DwD
Has it been officially confirmed that there will NOT be a video for Sober?
No
I wish she would hrry up and get the video out there. Hopefully the video will increase radio airplay!
i love this song… its just perfect in so many ways… i hope more people appreciate what the song is talking about- i can really relate it to my life sometimes. and no its not dull!!! just think about what its saying!!! musically, its almost perfect.
I love this song. I wish that more radio stations would play it. Kelly needs a video in America forall of us. For MTV and VH1. WE LOVE SOBER! IT’S NOT TOO LATE FOR A VIDEO!!!
I’m starting to get te feeling that My December is over. Kelly needs to hurry and get a mainstream pop album out before Carrie Underwood catches up in sales.
Don’t Waste Your Time cover is out!!! View on Wikipedia- release date unknown(should be soon if theres a video and a cover lol
Is it true that kelly is not going to have a video for sober, or promote My December any longer? Any new news on a new album in 2008?
I doubt shes making her 4th album so soon. It hasn’t been confirmed that there isn’t going to be a video but come on no promotion,not released to i-tunes, no phsical release, radio isn’t playing it, huge flop!!!
Kelly just finished her MY DECEMBER tour and she will co-headline with Reba on tour in the new year for about a month.
BEST COUNTRY CLLABORATION:
Kelly Clarksin& Reba
(nominated @ the grammys)
Kelly is gonna stomp Carrie and win the grammy for best country duet.
I am so exasperated. Don’t Waste Your Time got a video but it hasn’t been released to radio is so why did they waste the money????Back in August Kelly said that Don’t Waste Your time was the 2nd canadian single but it was never released ahhh It was supposed to be release in September(U.K) then pushed back to October then pushed back to November and now wikipedia says 2008…It has to be released..it’s common sense:
great song
has a video
has a cover
Now Hole is getting U.S airplay and currently has 2 spins(hope it’s next single)
Anyway I’m requesting Don’t…. at my local radio station: the beat 94.5 Vancouver and hope they play it..worth a try
Is it safe to say that there will not be a video, or airplay on radio for Sober?
Trishelle, I have a strong feeling that Don’t Waste Your Time will go huge in the U.S and that will make radio play Sober(like Pinks U+Ur Hand and Who Knew), then we’ll get a video…so I hope that happens. With One Minute failing Don’t Waste Your Time has started to recieve airplay in Australia. Wikipedia indicates it’s the 3rd Australian single. Don’t waste Your Time will be released to the U.K in 2008(i hope). As for Canada and the U.S i don’t know. All i am tryinging to do is get Don’t Waste Your Time on the radio. Irequested it twice yesterday but i haven’t heard them playing it(cross your fingers)……There’s always hope for SOBER!!!
I just looked @ mediabase Top 40 and Hole is no longer recieving airplay(darn it) but Be Still now has 2 spins lol
Start requesting Don’t Waste Your Time at YOUR local radio station please
Hi, Trishelle/KaliAnne/Sasha Frey/Candice/Kyle/Clarice/Charlote & Others
Sober is finished…. I need you to tell me if you are from the U.S or Canada. It will help me to know if you are going to be part of my project or ThE Kelly Express’ project.. just please tell me
Hey Everyone,
I requested Don’t Waste Your Time for the 4th time this week and today I got my friends:
DA,MF,EG & Yc to all request it so I hope they play it.. I called it the Kelly Clarkson “Single” project
US. what do you mean that Sber is finished?
I mean Sober is finished for now.
Now that I know you’re from the U.S I would like you to head over to the Kely Clarkson Express or Kely Project on Myspace.They are deciding what single they should request and Promote in the U.S It looks like they are going to choose.
If you were canadian(which you aren’t) I would want you to request Don’t Waste Your Time @ your local radio station(The Kelly Clarkson “Single” Project)
No offense, but the fans aren’t gonna create a radio hit. Kelly has to want to do somthing. she clearly hasn’t made any attempts to really promote MD. She released sober, but no video. I think, much like her boss, she has given up on MD as well.
PS: Why was there a video for DWYT, but not 4 sober? Clearly she knows her fans like sober better… but a video for DWYT? What’s she thinking?
I was just on wikipedia and it is explaining the Kelliy Clarkson Project thing in the U.S
It says:
They picked HOW I FEEL
They are making a youtube promotional Video
They will all pick a day to buy HOW I FEEL on i-tunes
Hope it gets on a bilboard chart
Will request a few days after they but it from i-tunes
Sounds like a Good Plan!!!!!! I don’t know if it will work but we can see. I am no longer requesting DON’T WASTE YOUR TIME because my radio isn’t playing and my friends think it’s stupid to request it(what do they know lol). Anyway I will rquest HOW I FEEL for a couple days and each time I will tell them about the KC Project and say why she needs this song to be a hit!!
I don’t think this song will do anything. Maybe with a little editing. For sure not without a music video.
It’s way to early to know for sure but a spanish source has put a list of next years albums coming out. Kelly Clarkson’s 4th Album is(acorrding to the list) set to be released on OCTOBER 28th(2007).
MY DECEMBER went PLATNIUM a few weeks ago!!
A million copies isn’t bad. Imagine how many it would’ve sold without the negative publicity w/ Clive.
It has also sold 2 million worldwide
And according to the spanish source:
Clive Davis is involved.
Genre: Pop w/a country feel
Any news on what songs of Kelly’s will be sung in the tour? I hope sober.
No offense, but I would rather it be just Kelly, but oh well.
Not yet, but I expect BECAUSE OF YOU and Kelly is still doing her mY DECEMBER Tour until April!!
Any new news on a possible single release in America?
Not that I know of but maybe if she wins the grammy they might think of releasing a new single. But I’m sure we’ll get a BRAND NEW SINGLE in the summer because she’s expected to release ALBUM #4 in the fall!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol lol lol lol
Has # 4 been 4 sure confirmed yet? What genre? Kelly needs to re-promote Sober. Nearly all of her fans liked that song the best, yet she still makes no plans give us what we want. I wish she would do it, because really the only single we got was the short-lived Never Again, which bombed after the negative publicity w/ Clive.
It has been CONFIRMED.Album #4 is in the works and is expected to be released @ the end of the year(October/November).Plans could change and it could be relesed in 2009 but I doubt it because ALBUM #4 has been in the works since MY DECEMBER came out………. It was just announced by Ryan Tedder,Lead Singer of One Republic /Manager:Timbaland, on his myspace that he is currently working with Kelly on her her 4th album. She has stated in interviews that she loves One Republics sound so it makes sense that she is working with him. Also, One Rebulic have released huge hits: Stop & Stare, Apologize and Ryan Tedder has written and produced songs for Hilary Duff/Leona Lewis/Blake Lewis and many others.SO: KELLY CLARKSON IS RETURNING!!!!!!!!
The GRAMMY’s are less than 1 month away!!!!!!! I can’t wait. I am gonna be so happy if KELLY & REBA win Best Country Callaboration!! The competition they have are 2 songs I have never heard of and CARRIE/BRAD. I listened to Carrie/Brads somg for the first time and it was HORRIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Totally, Kelly and Reba are gonna dominate. I also heard Kelly might team up w/ Timbaland. Thankfully Kelly decided to go w/ another pop album. I hope it’s not like MD. What’s an estimate on a new single for #4? I hope she keeps the long blonde hair for the cover.
Yeah, I’d love it if she kept her blonde hair for ther cover like on the European Cover of BREAKAWAY. I also hope it’s not like MY DECEMBER even though I loved it and it was named the 5th Most Liked Album of 2007 by Bilboard viewers!!(GO KELLY)
As for TIMBALAND, I heard that Timbaland was dissapointed that he didn’t get to work with Kelly on his Shock Value Album.It is possible because she is working with One Republic who is managed by Tim!!
As for 1st single I will definatley buy it request it and promote it.She has to go back up the charts.Carrie will not takeover!!!!!!!!
Timbaland remixed SINCE U BEEN GONE. Check it out on YOUTUBE.
Where did you here she was teaming up with tim???
I saw on another post somewhere that she was working with Tim. How awesome would it be for them to make a song. It would probably be better and even more successful than Promiscuous. This will be Kelly’s “Breakaway” year!!!
I know it’s not reliable lol but WIKIPEDIA says a song called “In Theese Eyes” was supposed to make BREAKAWAY but instead it’s making the 4th album.
I read somewhere that it was BTHE in its originl form. If it’s anything like BTHE it will be a smash hit.
Go Kelly! I hope the new album is more like Breakaway. Kelly’s goin back to the top of the charts!! It was smart to go for a pop cd.
I agree, I doubt she can ever top BTHE or SUBG, those are my 2 favorite songs in the world.
Kyle, no one ever said she couldn’t top BTHE or SUBG. So who do you agree with?? lol
Anyone got any new news.Just letting you tim fans no that his new video “Scream” premired on Yahoo today.I saw it.It’s pretty good 3.5/5 stars. It features Keri Hilson(who featured on Tim’s THE WAY I ARE) and Nicole Scherzinger(Lead singer of THE PUSSYCAT DOLLS)
I’m bored!!! No Kelly releated news any where on the net! *cry* lol
The Kelly Clarkson Express are still doing the How I Feel Project. UPDATE:
I-tunes Download Day: February 14th
Start Requesting: February
Video put on to YouTube: Next week
I know you guys think the idea won’t work but I’m believing in it.
I went on to wikipedia and edited the Kelly Clarkson page under 4th album saying she is working with Ryan Tedder and is rumoured to be working with Timbaland. Under My December: Singles I said no more singles are being released, How I Feel is going to be fan promoted. I added How i Feel to her singles area on My December and on Singles Disography.
I hope it works, but I’m not very optimistic. What kind of video is it gonna be? Maybe if it’s good enough she can return to TRL and VH1. Kelly needs to get involved.
I saw the videos that were the options, and the one that it’ll prolly be. No offense, but it’s not something you would see on any countdown. She just needs to hurry up with the new album.
The video is fan made. I think theyare voting for the right video now and should have a winner by Monday (I think). The video is going to have performances and fans acting stupid! lol
I am optimistic. I sooooo hop it works!!
Kelly will go back to the top! CArrie is goin down!!! THe more I hear people talking about Carrie the less I like her. I think the majority of people prefer Kelly. She needs more “friendly” songs to prove it! Go Kelly!!!
Damn it!
They deleted my HIF Project info on Wikipedia. IT WAS JUST FOR PROMOTION!!
Someone keeps tking that off there.So much 4 the HIF thing. O well, on to a new generation of K.C.
Kyle, they haven’t given up yet!
They have :
-2 promo covers
-4 fan made videios to choose from
They are going to:
-make a list of radio stations to e-mail
I put on Wikipedia that some fans have started to request How I Feel at z100. I am, can you to . All you have to do is go to this website: http://www.mediabase.com/mmrweb/7/stationplaylistrequest.asp?format=HI&c_let=WHTZ-FM and request. It’s easy:
Click five songs to request then in the Sonfgs that aren’ton the list box type How I Feel-Kelly Clarkson. Then SUBMIT. It says name,e-mail zip code ect. but you don’t have to put that. So far I’ve requested it 3 times. PLEASE REQUEST!!
So please request it. I’ve requested it 6 times in the last 2 days. I think the station will at least need 50 requests so please request! Get it onto MEDIABASE!!
Let’s start our own KC project!
Tell me if you are interested, then we’ll see how many people we have. Then we can all hound Z100 (seeing as though it’s the most listened to radio in U.S) and see if they play it. Then other station may soon play it!
Tell me if you wanna!
Sounds good to me. I haven’t ever heard of z100. It must be a western thing. I don’t know if it’s available here in the mid-west. O well, cause if the #1 starts playing it, then so will others. Let’s go for the KC project!
I thought this website was supposed to be about GOOD music………
UH YEAH! How I feel is a good song!!
Kelly is awesome. I think we know good music. SOmeone needs to get their ears checked. Any new news on the new album?
Kyle, no new kelly album news yet. Are you requesting st z100? And everyone else; please request!!
I’ve been requesting it. I wonder how far it is from being played. Kelly really should really help with this or it probably won’t work. Very few songs have made it big only from their fans. I’ll hope for the best.
Thanx Kyle. When the Kelly Express start requesting in February I’m sure it’ll get played a couple times! But ya know, Rihannas DON’T STOP THE MUSIC was not released but managed to go Top 20 before Def Jam official released it last week.
Video was picked:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FZacyLaTIlo
I just sent an awesome e-mail to my station. I had the 2 fan made covers then I had all different sections with different colours. It was awesome!! My station is in Canada and theres no support here so I’m all by my self!! Anyway the e-mail was good and check out the video!!
just called in my station and they don’yt have How I Feel!1 Awwww
Alot of people think it should be released as a single to radio. I think that if enough people sould request it to RCA it could be released.
I wonder what the chances of HIF becoming a hit actually is. I can’t wait till Feb. 14. I hope it works. We all need to spread it to other message boards. Idol boards would work GREAT!!! We all need to work together and spread the message!!!!!!!
I really think that we have to work hard for this to work! But I’m in Canada so I can only buy from Canadian I-tunes but I still will download, even if it doesn’t count lol.
Is everyone still watching the video????
Is everyone still requesting at Z100????
Do you think I should post some moire radio links???
Any new news?
Just checkedout the American Idol website aND IT SAYS cARRIE UNDERWOOD IS PERFORMING AT THE GRAMMYS. Which leads me to believe that Kelly isn’t because they would of mentioned it, as they report most Kelly news.
Kelly announced in an interview with Q100, that the new album will be released in th e 4th quarter or this year!
i cant wait!
I read that it’s possible for a single in late Aug.-early Sept. and album some time in Oct. But, everyone knows how that goes. The “Sober music video” was supposed to come out like Nov. last year and as we know there wasn’t even one at all. Apparently she was invited to Clive Davis’ grammy party, so at least she might get his support this time around. I’ve also heard a few people Kelly might be working with. Let’s hope for the best!!!
any new Kelly news on the new album, and what will be on it?
CAN’T BELEIVE KELLY LOST!!!! Oh…On wikipedia there is an actual page on How I Feel sayinging it’s her third and final single EVERYWHERE can’t find any info onthe internet sooooo i guess its PHONY! lol
That did suck that she lost. Willie Nelson? OMG that’s a joke! Hopefully she does HIF everywhere. What’s the chances of it actually occuring?
Chances 0to1billion I have given Up!
I know this isn’t a rihanna FORUm or anything but I just had to post this:
DON’T STOP THE MUSIC climbed 2-#1 in Australia this week!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Go riri!!! If it can stay there for 5 more weeks then it will be tied with UMBRELLA!!!! Go riri!!!!!!!
NEWSNEWSNEWS ALERT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Australian Tour: Kicks Off March 1st
Special Guests:S EAN KINGSTON & MANDY MORE
NEW SINGLE:Don’t Waste Your Time is the 3rd Australian single to support the Australian Tour. It has been release to i-tunes along with the video and is the 2nd most added song to radio!!!
NO ALBUM NEWS thou
I read somewhere that HIF has officially been announced as the final single from MD in US. Any truth to it?
Kyle, that was on wikipedia a few days ago but has been taken off I’ll search the net for ya!
All I found was some site saying that How I Feel was the 3rd single(promotion).The date was in a different langue but I think it said dec.29 2007!

That sux. It looks like it over. I heard HIF didn’t even make the pop 100 or top 100 on Itunes. BUMMER
I was @ the Kelly/Reba tour, and it was awesome. I do wish they would have done sober instead of Be Still, but it was still good. I guess since no single promo she can focus more on the new album and get it out asap, before carrie takes over.
Here is the rest of the tour songs:
20.Is There Life Out There?(Reba only)
21.I’m A Survivor
22.A Moment Like This
ENCORE
23.Since U Been Gone
24.Because Of You
25.Fancy
Kyle, HIF didn’t even get played once! So Sad! As for i-tunes I don’t think many people downloaded
it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I really don’t think we’re getting a 2008 album because Kelly & Reba wil be touring again together in September,October,& November but maybe she is being like carrie (she is touring by her self and co-headlining on another tour @ the same time.)
She is promotingin Australia then Europe starting in march so she hasn’t given up on MD and since Aussie is getting a single (Don’t Waste Your Time) to support the tour, then maybe Europe will get a single (One Minute?) to support the European leg!
Oh I forgot! Carrie cannot taken over untill she gets another Before He Cheats which I think she will with FLAT ON THE FLOOR or LAST NAME!
It’s not fair that the first ever winner of “American” Idol isn’t even getting another single in American, whereas Australia and Europe does. Totally makes no sense at all. Even though she is touring there, she still needs to remember where she started and who buys the majority of her albms.
Actually WW bought most of my December *sigh*
I wish she would do another single in America! How I Feel!
HIF would be awesome, but, unfortunetly, I don’t think clive davis will let it fly. I have heard several rumors it would be released.
Is she trying to tell us something?
Hmph…..Don’t Waste Your Time didn’t debut on the Aussie charts this week….Hmph…
At least another idol debut on the Austrailan charts this week:
LW TW
NEW #29 Tattoo- Jordin Sparks
I am very happy with that. I think Jordin will be like Kelly and will be a hit all around the world:
Tattoo:
U.S #8
Can. #3!!!!!
Aust. #29
Brazil #67
Portugese #34
Malta AP #27
In the U.S it has been downloaded almost 1.3 million times on Itunes.
U guys are probually thinking one-hit wonder but she isn’t soooooooo look:
No Air(2nd Single-Released Offically 2 weeks ago)
U.S #23
Can. #34
U.K Pop Itunes: #99
And the video is yet to be released!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Though she has only gone gold in the u.S she is as bigger hit on Mainstream radio than anyone except Kelly Clarkson!!!
I think Kelly should stop releasing singles(aussie/U.K) cancel her tour and spend more time on a new album!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i agre
i agre
I just wish she would hurry up with the new album. I can’t wait to hear the new stuff. I bet it won’t even come out until 2009, even though it’s said to be released in 08. I can’t wait. HURRY!
Theres this forum on UKMIX that is ran by a single person and he posts the 50 singles and albums chart plus he gives u the top 5 most added and a little bit of the airplay chart. He updated it today and Don’t Waste Your Time has climbed from 97-50 whick means we might see it on next weeks chart!
And I’m rooting for TATTOO to go top 20!
OMG look @ #14 and #24
