[Music Video] Kelly Clarkson – “Dark Side”

There are few things worse in this world than a music video that shows the artist singing some emotional song in between scenes of a bunch of random nobodies experiencing various hardships. It was cute when Christina Aguilera did it, but for everybody else it’s just a big fail.

That’s the approach that Kelly Clarkson has taken for the visual for her flawless new single “Dark Side”. Kelegend should have just shown clips of people having anal sex instead, because we all know that’s what this song is really about.

If you cut all the excess baggage out of “Dark Side”, it’s a pretty good clip. It’s just Kelegend singing into the camera and walking around in a cool dress, but she looks stunning, sounds stunning, and is rocking a very nice wig.

Are you dumb broads ready for Kelly’s iconic new smash to take over the world?

    Great vid, very modern and simple but was enough, made me look at the song differently as in no one is alone we all have problems, but the vid could have ad te darkness of behind these hazel eyes and it could have been darker and deeper but either way it was great n Kelly looked amazing

    Other than the black dress, the entire thing looks terribly dated. I don’t care much for the song myself anyways. I still have my fingers crossed for “I Forgive You”.

    I love the song. It’s actually one of my favorites off of her album.. but this video is mediocore & nothing special.

    I realize Ms. C is not a “video artist” but she’s better than this. This is a fantastic song, it could have used a better and more creative video. I don’t need to see the 40th remake of the Beautiful video.

    You seem awfully sure this song will smash, but the song’s iTunes performance hasn’t been so hot even after two high-profile performances and a music video release.

    We’ll see how radio takes to the song, I guess.

    Well, it’s not yet released as a single… plus it’s still being blocked by Stronger which sits at the top 40…. But I think it will be a guaranteed hit. Considering the fact that it’s already entering the top 100 in UK and Ireland before its release.

    This is a total flop. Paris is so much better, as you said before!

    I LOVE this song… it is beautiful and reminds me of music boxes but the mv is so lame… feels like a high school video project.

    Unless you mean Paris the city you need to go to Azerbaijan because that’s the only place Paris Hilton is still known.

    Great song, nice dress, boring video.

    Here’s the thing. I get why some folks are disappointed. I mean, this song could’ve. Had a flawless video with a plot, and some cinematography. That being said though, I like the way Kelly incorporated the struggles that are out there at the moment. The video is simple, and a nice concept, but I agree that it’s been done too much. Christina Aguilera nailed this theme HARD with her ‘Beautiful’ clip, cementing it as a historical piece of pop music. Kelly could have done something similar, but this clip is sooooo simple, that it’s almost vague. It’s hard to tell what ‘Issues’ some of these characters are struggling with… Whereas with Christina’s clip it was 100% obvious.

    i was shaking my head when i pressed play and realized kelly went with this tired concept for the video. it’s directed by the same guy who did the terrible video for stronger, so cleary she should never work with him again..
