Since U Been Gone

Unfamiliar with this week's tune? Hear it here. 

 

1) In this song, Kelly Clarkson is dissatisfied with her relationship and she's moving on. What's something you've moved on from lately? It could be anything from a romance to the laundry detergent you've been using for years.  I moved on from my deodorant--I've used it for over a decade and it "stopped working" so I moved on

 

2) She sings that she can now breathe. Studies have shown that July can be a good month for allergy sufferers because trees and grasses are no longer pollinating. How are your eyes, ears, nose and throat this morning? all systems are go!

 

3) Kelly complains that their romance reminds her of a "stupid love song." Let's be more positive: what love song do you associate with positive memories? "Tell Her This" by Del Amitri

4) While Kelly's first love is music, she's established herself as a TV personality. In addition to her daytime talk show, she's been a judge on The Voice and hosted an awards show. Have you ever been on TV? there have been several interviews with the local news, if that counts

5) She has confessed a weakness for Doritos. Would we find salty snacks in your kitchen right now? you would

 

6) Kelly has found her weight the source of public debate. Are you like Kelly, whose weight fluctuates? Or does it stay stable? it's stable

 

7) In 2005, when this song was popular, a motorist made news in Texas when he was ticketed for driving over 200 mph in a 75 mph zone. Have you ever been pulled over by the police? no, I have not

 
8) Also in 2005, Tom Cruise had a pop culture moment when he famously jumped on a sofa. Do you remember where he did this? he was professing his undying love for Katie Holmes

 

9) Random question: Tell us about a photo you wish you'd taken, but didn't. I wish I had taken more selfies with my sister and niece while on my Virginia trip
