Heartfelt song

"'Because Of You' is a beautiful, heartfelt ballad. Kelly's voice sounds great as usual, but what really makes this song so good is the lyrics. Kelly wrote this song when she was sixteen, and it's about broken families and the pain divorce can bring. It's a sad song: "Because of you I never stray too far from the sidewalk, because of you I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt, because of you I find it hard to trust not only me but everyone around me, because of you I am afraid...""

A ballard for all ages

"Kelly Clarkson sounds nothing at all like Christina Aguilara, and I like Christina's voice and songs as much as I like Ms Clarkson.



Because of you is a beautiful ballard with a great video and it is more country in its sound than pop/rock. I loved it, it's haunting, the melody is superb, the lyrics memorable and Kelly Clarkson has a sound all of her own, so keep on singing girl and don't let no one tell you that you are anyone's music clone, because you are not!!!"
