In the very beginning Kelly started to praise Alanis' songwriting and called it a unique ability to capture universal experiences.

What exacly Kelly said?

“You have a way of saying what we really want to say, or what we don't know how to identify," Clarkson said. "And 'Hands Clean' is a really rough song. Is it from childhood trauma?"

“I remember the record company having said, ‘Let’s do this video where it’s a karaoke and there’s kids and it’s joy.’ And I asked them, I said, ‘Have you heard the song?’ And they said, ‘Yeah, it’s great.’ I was like, ‘OK, so you haven’t heard the song,'” said the three-times Grammy winner.
