On Monday, January 11th’s episode of The Kelly Clarkson Show, Kelly took it back to the ’90s  with a “Kellyoke” cover of Toni Braxton’s classic single “Another Sad Love Song.”

“It’s just another sad love song/ Rackin’ my brain like crazy/ Guess I’m all torn up/ Be it fast or slow/ It doesn’t let go/ Or shake me/ And it’s all because of/ Here comes the strings/ Then somebody sings/ It’s just another lonely love song,” she wailed on the chorus before going for the key change on the final note of the track’s forlorn bridge.

With her initials spelled out in purple lights on the floor, the talk show host slightly updated the new jack swing of the song’s original arrangement with some help from her house band, Y’All.

The track was written and produced by Daryl Simmons and Babyface, featuring additional production from L.A. Reid, it was released as the lead single from Braxton’s self-titled debut album on June 29, 1993. The song fused R&B, pop, and new jack swing music with flourishes of downtempo and hip hop music. Lyrically, “Another Sad Love Song” talks about Braxton complaining that every song played on the radio is a reminder of her ex-boyfriend.
