Kelly Clarkson climbs to number 1 on US Billboard Hot 100 with 'Stronger'
Well done to Kelly, who has surpassed Adele and taken the number 1 spot on the Billboard chart with Stronger - her 3rd US number one, following 'A Moment Like This' and 'My Life Would Suck Without You'.
I'm so pleased for her that she's till achieving success ten years after her win on American Idol

not in terms of singles. Adele's singles weekly sales for SFTTR are average in terms of the USA. Airplay is a massive factor, kelly has had massive airplay and got more radio airplay faster than adele did.
from Billboard:
Stronger" soars to the Hot 100's top spot with top Airplay Gainer honors, charging 33-15 on the Radio Songs chart (58 million audience impressions, up 49%, according to Nielsen BDS).
On the Digital Songs survey, "Stronger" spends a second week at No. 1. The song sold 237,000 downloads (up 6%) in the list's tracking week, according to Nielsen SoundScan.
As Clarkson motors to the Hot 100's top spot, Adele's "Set Fire to the Rain" descends to No. 2 after two weeks at No. 1. The song pushes 4-2 on Radio Songs (127 million, up 8%) and holds at No. 2 on Digital Songs (after leading the tally three weeks ago) with 165,000 downloads sold (down 1%).
I gotta say Stronger is growing on me though. I'm still gonna give the album a miss though as it sounds rather shite.
I think it peaked way too early due to big airplay (I think) or the album release. I think it was the latter. All of a sudden people were buying it. Same for Domino.
I think Dark Side is so much better, and would like to see her release Hello too.
It's interesting you say that because I think it was only the first two singles that were 'un-Kelly' if you get what I mean, I think the rest of the album is amazing and more suited to her vocals - it's not better than My December though which in my opinion is her best album to date
Try Tip of my Tounge, Impossible, All I ever wanted and The Day we Fella apart from that album, great tunes and nother like MLWSWY!
I just couldn't get into it, as much as I tried there's not a single song on AIEW that appeals or stands out to me. Stronger is still growing on me, and i'm playing the album more but apart from Stronger and Dark Side everything seems very... plain. My December is such a good album, I could listen to songs like Irvine and Maybe forever.
Actually her album has sold moderatley well. It's not flopped at all.
And you say this as her album has climbed up to number 12 this week, and her single is number one?! And just after she sang the national anthem at the Superbowl? Yes, clearly she's flopping.
Honestly one artist who no matter what, I will always love her voice and music.
I'm hoping for Alone, Darkside or Breaking Your Own Heart will be next.
