Kelly Clarkson Masters Nat King Cole Yet Again with a Perfect Cover of ''L-O-V-E''
Clarkson put her own spin on the classic jazz tune.
Kelly Clarkson sure knows how to sing classic jazz tunes.
During her cover of ''L-O-V-E'' by Nat King Cole, she crooned in a swanky, upbeat tone, before an epic horn solo broke out.
This hasn't been the only time that Clarkson has done Nat King Cole justice. In November 2023, she sang his 1954 version of ''Smile'' as a Kellyoke segment while on The Kelly Clarkson Show, and her silky smooth rendition will make you feel warm and cozy. Listen to it here.
Then, back in 2019, Clarkson teamed up with John Legend, who was also a Coach on The Voice at the time, for another heavenly cover of ''Smile.'' Check out their lovely duet from Legend's YouTube series ''Trailer Talk'' here.
