WOW! Miss Independant, those are some strong words against the Clive. I guess he just rubs you the wrong way.

Yowch. Well, at least you’ve got a strong opinion, Miss Independent. I like it (and your screen name too!).

Clive Davis is a ego maniac who tries to control everything – hats off to Kelly who doesn’t give a **** who he promised what – she is not going to sing to 8-10 year olds or 70 year olds only because that is who Clive thinks will make him money – he has never liked Kelly and has always treated her disrespectfully – he has done everything on the backs of others – he puts himself in a no-loose situation and takes credit whichever way it goes – you can like him if you like but he is truly a p***k

Regina – I definitely know that Clive Davis is an….experienced man. He certainly knows how to work the industry. I can see your logic. Thanks for adding that!

Please don’t beleive the media! they are gonna write what labels want to hear. Clive DAVIS IS A POWERFUL MAN WHO CAN MANIPULATE MANY THINGS..
Look at Mario Vazquez: all the vibe about him, so talented, bla,bla..and now he’s forgatten by Clive!!!!!!!!!!
Guitarist CESAR called Clive ofices many times and sent his CD and Clive never accepted simply because is not coming from his ‘buddies”. Cesar played w/ Placido Domingo, Luis Miguel, George Benson, London Philharmonic and the old man still hidding in his manhattan suite and listen to his pals ONLY!!! Clive, you said you believe in real talent. So do what you say please! Kelly Clarckson is talented but without Clive she would be nothing! singers like her need a mastermind behind other wise they die.

KELLY CLARKSON’S
MY DECEMBER HITS ON JULY 24, 2007
Grammy Winner’s Third Album Already Yields Top 10 Hit Single, “Never Again,”

LOS ANGELES, May 7, 2007—RCA Records recording artist Kelly Clarkson is back and raring to rock. My December, her third album, the follow-up to 2004’s Breakaway, which sold 6 million in the U.S. and 10 million worldwide, will be released on July 24.

The first single from the album, “Never Again,” has already climbed into the Top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 following in the footsteps of such #1 hits as “Since U Been Gone,” “Breakaway,” “Behind These Hazel Eyes,” “Because of You” and “Walk Away.”

Produced by Grammy winner David Kahne [The Strokes, Bangles, Sugar Ray, Sublime, Paul McCartney], My December is Clarkson’s most personal album yet, all of which she’s either written or co-written. The Los Angeles Times Ann Powers calls My December “a 21st century idea of hard rock, incorporating loops and other studio effects to find a middle ground between the raw and the cooked.” L.A. punk legend and bassist Mike Watt, currently playing with Iggy and the Stooges, appears on three songs, while Clarkson’s other touring band members, Jason Halbert and Jimmy Messer, also contributed.

Whether it’s the funky new wave of “One Minute,” the startlingly confessional “Sober,” the meditative, soulful Christine McVie-style strains of “Be Still,” the bluesy Joplinesque twang of the cheeky, kiss-off song, “Chivas,” the blues hard-rock of “Hole” or the full-throttle Pat Benatar howl of “Haunting,” My December shows another side of Kelly Clarkson, who told the L.A. Times: “I’ll always come out with a different record each time.”

The Times’ Powers raved: “Clarkson has the moxie to rock without worrying about what anybody else thinks… Her gift is finding the source of vitality in absolute mainstream, people-pleasing pop, which by its nature breaks stylistic rules in favor of magpie mash-ups, bold appropriations and happy accidents.”

*It has been done February and she begged Clive to release, it and it grew on Clive..Just a little, really little bit. Obviously you guys are still doubting, but you’ll see, the album not be redone.

Another thing, its reported that they spent million s of dollars for this album….Clive is the most cheapest person in the world, he would never pay millions more for a new one. And plus, her album has been February, Clive listened to it but didnt really dig. But what was, there was a quote, and she begged to Clive. Here it is (its part from the review i posted up by Ann Powers)

It is very aggressive,” Clarkson said. “And it might be too much. But I just needed to be able to make this record and not have so many hands in the cookie jar saying, ‘Pull this string, pull that string.’ I was like, ‘Just give me this one thing, and I will make whatever record you want next time.’ Now, I need this, for me.” And obviously the gave in.
