Kelly Clarkson - Piece By Piece (American Idol) (Emotional Reaction!!) 

I have a lot of respect for Keith Urban,crying during her song.That’s a real Man that can express his feelings 💯❤️😭👩🏼‍🦳

This song is such an amazing story, but I cry every time

This is a TOUGH song. I couldn't ever leave my son. Not ever.

If most emotional songs cause allergies, this one is anaphylaxis, especially knowing he failed her too 😭

It’s so sad to hear this knowing that her husband turned out to be a jerk too. She may never trust another man.

You know that feeling where you're super stressed or overwhelmed or whatever and you just know if you could cry it might feel better? This is my go-to song for that feeling.

I give props to the piano players for continuing even when she broke down. That probably kept her going.

She certainly deserved that standing ovation.

So her husband was who came along and restored her from her childhood. This husband & Father to her children, has stolen millions of dollars from her while they were divorcing. My heart truly goes out to her. It’s heartbreaking, I love her. She is so humble, and kind, beautiful, and Uber talented🤩

This song is powerful enough that all the people doing reaction videos give very very genuine, honest reactions even if they try not to.

When my dad left my brothers got me through it they showed me everything this song saids

She wrote this song. Bawling. Great video

This is a brilliant song. I can’t believe they ruined the studio version making it a club song. Had they released this version, the song would have been massive.

This song starts off seeming like a lover abandonment but with the 6 yr old line it directs the deed to her father then to the idea that he will only be there if you have something he wants otherwise you're not worth noticing. Any parent or child whose been abandoned by a parent will not only relate, but feel the same emotions that stirs from the 2 verses. How can a person just not care about their child and leave them at 6 years old, but sadly it does happen. Be it by substance abuse, the desire to leave the other parent, or just narcissism people do cut their kids out of their lives and the child is left to feel like they are the reason.. 3rd verse was so powerful, filled with hope, love, and optimist, that we all start becoming emotionally vulnerable. Add on the emotion and break downs she had while singing to a simple piano melody, you have to feel it. Especially when she hit the note on 'he loves her', thats a sledgehammer to the wall.

This one hits me in the feels every time.

I can't imagine a parent making a child feel like that. Too bad the man that picked up the pieces is now her ex husband. Another song along these same lines is I Wonder by Kellie Pickler ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Du-pGXQEWLU.html this is a video where both sides tell their side of things ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-iHbIquCi9Bo.html .. That was Brad Paisley's wife who introduced Kellie before she sang. The Song Ticks by Brad Paisley is a good one. funny.

This song is about her dad that never wanted a relationship with her. Kelly tried to get in touch with her dad, but he didn't give her the time of day. He unfortunately died last year when Kelly did the pilot to her show. So she never had the love from her dad. In 2013 she got married to Brandon Blackstock. They have two children together and he has shown love not only to those children, but also to the other two children he had from a previous marriage. Now Kelly and Brandon are getting a divorce. I pray that he shows love to ALL his children even though he is getting another divorce. Kelly is such a strong woman. She brings life and energy to those around her. She is so talented, humble, positive, and kind. I love her music! Through her songs she has touched millions of lives. Thanks for reacting to this video Dream Team Neal!

The is by far the best reaction I’ve seen to Kelly’s performance. Thank you for being real, man ❤️

I had the same reaction. I love ❤ how genuine and caring you are!

“i’m human, i talk back”❤️ i smile every single time he says it🥺

I'm 43 years old. My sister and I were physically abused by our egg donor. We will never refer to her as our mother. She walked out on us. Abandoned us. She had mental issues and was put on medication. There's no excuse. It didn't change anything. She was in and out of our lives, whenever it was convenient for her. My dad remarried and our mom (step) treated us like we were her own. We started calling her mom shortly after we met her. They never said anything out of the way about her. They encouraged us to visit with her and we did. Just when we would get used to seeing her, she would up and leave again. It went on for years. She even moved to the same state to be around us. Of course it didn't last. Last time we heard from her was in the early 90's via a certified letter. The letter said she didn't even want us. The only reason she had us was because our father wanted kids. She said once we had kids of our own, we would understand where she was coming from. My son, almost 18 and my daughter almost 16. My sister has a son, 7 years old. And to this day I still don't understand. My kids are my life. She didn't even know we both graduated from high school. I went into the Army at age 17. My sister married her high school sweetheart August 1995. I married in December 1997. Found out she died in 2002 which is ironic considering what would have been her first grandchild was born the same year she died. All I can say is it's her loss. I'm the woman I am today, no thanks to her...

Daddy issues are not just something women suffer from. There are too many "fathers" out there who don't tell their kids they love them, that they are proud of them, take an interest in who their kids ARE. Its not hard to invest your feelings and be proud of your kids. You will be so happy when they grow up as well rounded adults who know their worth. Parents really need to stop spending more time on their phones than with their kids.

This song is so raw and painful and beautiful..... This story is waaay too common today and we should be embarrassed by it.

she opened her heart up. and touched my heart deeply

I cry every time! I could of never left my kids!

No Place that Far-- Sara Evans/Vince Gill

Your reaction speaks more toward you heart & character than anything else .

Amazing how an artist can capture what others go through and put it into a song. I mean, I know that pain. I feel it with her. Biggest hole is you’re left always wondering what did I do for them to walk away? Can I change something to heal. It never goes away. I WAS 6 years old when I met him the first time and I begged him to take us back. Mom stood in the distance and just watched him look at my sisters and I and say, “not now” he meant not ever. I grabbed onto his leg so tight but he just pulled me off and walk away and that’s all I remember, his back. I feel you Kelly. But a man walked into my life at 11 and that’s my stepDad. Still in my life 38 years. Hard to hear this song and keep it together.

I can't hear this without tears. It even got to Keith Urban. They are friends and I think he had issues with his father, too.

This song gets me every time.

I love your reaction to this song!! Thank you!!

Same way i reacted the first time i saw this video and still do

This one tears me up every time. Your reaction was heartfelt and spot on.Of all the reactors to this I've seen you are the first one to point out her writing this , how hard ( but cathartic I imagine)it must have been. Of course I had to smile when you didn't see how she could sing it without breaking down, because I knew what was coming.

I see the song but haven't hit play yet. My man, your allergies are gonna kick your ass on this. Merry Christmas 🎅

I cry every time I hear this song

Best reaction . Love your channel. So genuine brother !! Kelly is amazing. Such great emotional connection 🙌🙌

Kelly wrote this song about her dad abandoning her at 6yrs old, but know she's going through her divorce and her ex husband has abandoned his own kids 😢😢❤

I subscribed because of this reaction. Love you brother. ❤️

I love how much concern and empathy you had for her. Says a lot about your character. That was a five star reaction you did right there.

This was me. Except I was 6 months old instead of years when Daddy took me out of the orphanage. There's no greater love for a Father whose Daughter was Chosen. I was naughty though and when we were kids I always told my little brother my parents got him from the Blue Light Special from the Orphanage rofl.

Yoi have chosen some great songs to highlight during your December challenge !! Excellent job

Let it out bro!!!!

IT'S SO HARD TO BELIEVE WHAT SHE, AND MANY OTHERS, HAS GONE THROUGH SUCH A TERRIBLE TIME BECAUSE OF HER FATHER. MY EX-PARTNER LEFT ME WHEN MY DAUGHTER WAS 2 YEARS OLD, SHE IS 26 YRS OLD NOW, AND FORTUNATELY LOVES ME AS I DO FOR HER. xxx

I am a new sub due 2 organic response & got the meaning right away. Kelly was very pregnant w/ her baby girl during this performance. 👏🏼😭💞

You’ve got a great ♥️

Sometimes the kids have to be the stronger ones.

❤️ she’s a powerful performer I cry every time

she was pregnant with her second child here so it was very emotional with you know the hormones that women go through

Thanks for your genuine reaction❣

I wonder if she'll ever sing that song again!!

I requested this song!! Thank you!! I can relate as my bio father left when i was very young and i never saw him again. My step dad came and and filled that void and is now my real father. So that song means a lot to me. Kelly wrote that song about her biological father when she was pregnant with her daughter, the man who taught her a father could love was her husband.

What a great reaction. This song hits hard every time. Please react to I dare you (multilingual version) She sings in 6 different languages. It's AMAZING!!!! 👌❤️

Oh beautiful reaction my friend. I can not imagine being a father and grandfather ever turning my love away from my family , children or grandchildren, this brought tears in my eyes thinking this really happens, no child deserves this.

Love you man. God bless

Merry Christmas 🎄🎅☃️. Hope you have a wonderful & healthy holiday❤

I'm a New Subscriber and I'm going through your playlists. Lovin your reactions! Clicked on this one..and it hit home! Btw..my bday is Christmas Eve! There are No coincidences! This was meant to be! ❤

I cry everyone I see this performance.. this is a true story for Kelly to sing this is so amazing.. she’s a good human period !! And she’s an amazing songwriter!!

Great reaction and comments!

Yoooo bruh watching u reacting this video U got me in 😭 😭😭 as well

I get misty eyes every time I’ve seen this.

Beautiful Soul❤️Father in Heaven will never let you down😉

You’re so great with your reactions man thank you for this. This is a phenomenal song. React to her singing I Know You Won’t please!

Real feelings require bravery... don’t worry we were totally sobbing 💯

Hey my friend, you are all heart! Love your sincere reactions to these songs and how you break each song down. Merry Christmas to you & your family.

This is my story! God Bless Kelly for writing this song and singing it!!!💕💕💕

I cry every time... So powerful...

👏👏👏 Loved your reaction and admitting it was tough for you not to cry too💔I find this version almost impossible to get through without sobbing😭 My Dad & I don't speak....haven't done for years because he treated us like crap & was very violent to me. As a child you don't know what you've done wrong....and every little girl wants their daddy to protect them.....even tho I'm grown, sometimes that little girl inside me still wants my daddy to love me, but it's just too painful 😢 THANK YOU for your sincere reaction👏 Peace☮️

Yay! I have been waiting for this one! Another great live performance is Demi's "Anyone" from the 2020 Grammys. It was her 1st performance after her overdose.

I love your reactions I’m subscribing you got me

Wow

Great song and Merry Christmas to u 2

❤❤

Your reaction was spot on perfect! Another one that is amazing that the writer has the strength to sing is Toby Mac's "21 Years". It so powerful. Very emotional. Prepare yourself before you listen and watch that video. It's about his 21 yr old son.

Love Kelly, so much heart, the way she always feels the music but this song is beyond amazing...damn. Neal, I love you! So sincere and thoughtful in what you say. You actually listen to the lyrics and I'm always inspired by what you say. Thank you.

You'd be surprised how many of us are out there

You’re such a cool dude. Thank you for this reaction video. It’s nice to see men show their emotions. It is a very sad song and knowing it’s about her life is even more sad because she’s such an amazing person. I feel the ache every single time I see this performance.

Merry Christmas eve and hope your with loved ones tomorrow on Jesus birthday and God Bless .

Merry Christmas everyone

I could never leave my son. My son is 13years old when he was 5 his dad left and i married again. The man i married adopted my son and gave him his last name. Thats a dad for you.

Merry Christmas to all

I really appreciate your reaction....this song resonates so much with me...although in my case it was my mother who did the rejecting (she was a narcissist).....however, I was blessed with a kind and sweet father, and we still have a great relationship to this day - I am 60 and he is 83....so grateful he is still here! Bless you and Happy New Year

I love this version of the song so emotional!!! Great job Kelly !!

Your reaction is literally me the first time I seen this 🥺🥺🥺 so beautiful and sadly relatable

I love that you feel the same way I do with EVERY song you review!

Your reaction is beautiful. Vulnerability is beautiful.

Excellent reaction.... we all cried together! 💗

I love this reaction. Thank you for being vulnerable. 😍😍

My eyes “sweat” every time!!

Amazing reaction bro it was a very emotional song and your reaction was genuine. Keep up the good work

You would like GFBF, "I'm not well" It's Tom MacDonald and Nova Rockefeller singing a duet. They are so adorable together.

so sorry when i suggested this it is such a good song where she picked up her self and made a good life for her self

This song kills me I know how it feels but she is amazing

I am still waiting for that man..the healing of an absent parent is real.

And the recorded version is very upbeat

Merry Christmas eve

I'd like to think this song could be about the Jesus showing us the love of the Heavenly Father is greater than the disappointments of an earthly father.

It sure is a crying and sad song

You are always so happy coming in and then I see the song and I'm like oh no here we go I cry every time also can you react to rascal flatts live. I won't let go he is so much better live he hits those runs thanks Merry Christmas

I feel horrible for her now that she and her husband are divorcing.......😢😢

How many times have children said this to themselves but just couldn't put it in words or just say it so they no how we fill
