Kelly Clarkson is an American Idol winner, top 40 hit-maker and current daytime talk show host, but she's always shown an appreciation for hot-blooded rock music. Her 2004 breakout, "Since U Been Gone," is an anthemic rock song that hits with a pop-punk force, and during a recent episode of the Kelly Clarkson Show, she took center stage to belt out a powerful cover of Soundgarden's 1994 hit, "Black Hole Sun."
Clearly, this wasn't Clarkson's first time crooning the Chris Cornell classic, as she demonstrated a skillful knowledge of the song's vocal crescendos and decrescendos, and truly let her voice rip during the climax. Watch her belt above via YouTube.
