What was supposed to simply satiate fans’ appetites until the first single from her album was released turned into a global hit that became the title track of her 2004 album. Featured on the soundtrack for The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement, “Breakaway” was originally released as a single when Clarkson was in between albums.

Kelly sounds great singing it, and it was a big hit for us.”Ĭlarkson’s voice took the song to new heights. Breakaway Date NovemLength 44:47 Producers Clive Davis Kara DioGuardi Dr. Lavigne's Let Go (20th Anniversary Edition) take on the song sounds relatively similar to Clarkson's 2004 version, though the 'Complicated' singer adds a heavier guitar pattern and slightly alters. “As it turned out, it wasn’t quite right for Avril’s album, so we pitched it to Kelly Clarkson. It was inspired by her life,” adds Gerrard. “The song was originally written for Avril. “Avril came over to write with us, Avril talked about her life and what things were important to her, she was the inspiration for the song,” Benenate told Songwriter Universeabout how the song was written, adding that Gerrard built the track while she forged ahead with the lyrics. Trying to reinvent her image, Clarkson parted ways with Idol management and shifted to pop rock for her second studio album, Breakaway (2004). They approved, with the song’s famous opening lines being, Grew up in a small town / And when the rain would fall down / I’d just stare out my window. She asked Lavigne and her co-writers if she could change the original line and when the snow would fall down, inspired by Lavigne’s upbringing in the wintry Ontario, Canada, to “rain” to reflect the weather in her native Texas.
Though Clarkson didn’t write the song, she did make a notable change.
