Kelly Clarkson went country again. The pop icon and beloved talk show host selected an early 2000s Keith Urban song to perform with her band Y’all during the “Kellyoke” segment of The Kelly Clarkson Show on Wednesday (May 25):
“Pray that it's raining on Sunday/ Storming like crazy/ We'll hide under the covers all afternoon/ Baby whatever comes Monday/ Can take care of itself/ ‘Cause we've got better things/ That we can do/ When it's raining on Sunday”
The “Raining On Sunday” cover marks Clarkson’s latest cover of one of Urban’s songs, following her rendition of “Tonight I Wanna Cry,” which she performed earlier this year. Clarkson’s other country covers include spins on iconic songs by Brooks & Dunn, Kelsea Ballerini, Lee Ann Womack, Kacey Musgraves, Randy Travis, Dolly Parton and more.
“Music is in the DNA of everything I do, so when The Kelly Clarkson Show started we knew it was the perfect way to kick off every episode,” Clarkson said in a statement, announcing her six-song Kellyoke EP. “Over 500 songs later, and we’re still not running out of amazing artists to pay tribute to. …Thanks for singing along with me y’all!”
