After much anticipation, the music video for “I Don’t Think About You” has finally arrived, and it’s a tear jerker.



I want to start off by saying, I haven’t been moved to tears by a music video is YEARS!

Kelly Clarkson’s video for her newest single, “I Don’t Think About You” just dropped and shows a message of resilience, growth, perseverance and how you can become stronger through all your rocky moments.

The video showcases all of Clarkson’s hardships from her parent’s rocky relationship — talked about in previous records like “Because of You” — to relationship drama to hardships with record labels and critics.

Clarkson is shown in a beautiful black ensemble climbing a whirling stair case, with each step we are taken back to a moment of hardship.

As the video progresses we see Clarkson make her way to the top of the staircase. As we reenter each flashback we see the spirit of each Kelly (at each stage of hardship) leave her body and stand up against the tribulations.

Each version of Clarkson is then seen joining the Kelly we know today at the top of the staircase and entering her body. Showing that through it all Clarkson has rose up and finally become who she was meant to be.

Every moment she thought would knock her down and through every hardship she made it and overcame it all.

The inspirational video is, in my opinion, one of the most beautiful creations Clarkson has ever blessed fans with.

The authenticity in the lyrics was the first thing to get me about this song, but the genuine storytelling in this video will move fans in ways only true artist can.

Everything from vocals to production, lyrics and a beautiful and creative story concept make this single PERFECT.

Clarkson proves that she deserves every ounce of success she has, and proves that she will always be THE American Idol.
