Kelly Clarkson: A Voice Only Carries So Far

Thor Christensen of the Dallas Morning News reviewed Kelly Clarkson’s debut solo album ‘Thankful’, giving it a C+ rating. Christensen says of last season’s ‘American Idol’ champ: “Don’t be surprised if the public spoons up ‘Thankful’, but the CD probably won’t earn her much credibility as an artist. In real life – unlike the fantasyland of American Idol – a golden voice only carries so much clout.”
