Top song of 2005; "Since U been gone."

2005 was filled with music that people could play over and over again OR music that was most people's WORST nightmare OR music that made a person want to punch someone whilst listening it it! 2005 was filled with music from all three areas, however this post wll focus on the BEST HIT of 2005. So what made a particualr song so good ? It is the lyrics? The instruments? Or is it the singer itself?




The BEST song of 2005 was most certainly Kelly Clarkson's "Since U been gone" from her hit album "Breakaway." The song was overplayed on the radio millions and millions of times, with fans learning the catchy lyrics word for word! 2005 was the year that Kelly Clarkson outgrew American Idol and became a major pop star in her own independence. "Since U been gone" reached number two in the U.S. and the top five across the world and also earned Clarkson her first Grammy Award for "Best Female Pop Vocal Performance."


So what made the lyrical composition so great that each individual soon had the tune and lyrics stuck in their head? The lyrics are concerned with the relief that Clarkson is feeling after her breakup and how she is feeling a sense of "freedom" and a "new beginning." The lyrics became so successful due to that fact that many teenagers and even adults can listen to it after a breakup as a sense of motivation to move on with their life. The tune is catchy with a playful beat that makes girls want to jump around and forgot the boy that broke their heart and nearly destroyed the person they were! Clarkson's image was simple with a high class of personality which made her singing of this song come from the heart, full of attitude and revenge. It is this built persona that made the song so successul, and made a wide range of audiences worship her!


"Since U Been Gone" is one of the most brilliant slices of pop-rock in this decade so far and became the most successful release from Clarkson's album "Breakaway."
