Kelly Clarkson Almost Had 'Brain Aneurysm' as She's Given 4 Days to Record Song in Six Languages

The former ‘American Idol’ champion is struggling to record her new single called ‘I Dare You’ in six different languages including French, Hebrew, and Arabic.

AceShowbizKelly Clarkson thought she was “going to have a brain aneurysm” as she recorded six languages for her new single “I Dare You” in just four days.

The 37-year-old singer dropped the new tune on Thursday night, April 17, 2020, and appeared on “The Tonight Show: Home Edition with Jimmy Fallon” to talk about the process of laying down the track.

While Kelly “literally begged” her record label to give her ample time to hit the studio for the tune, it ended up that she only had four days to record all the versions.

“It’s not their fault, it’s just how it happened, but I was like, ‘Please don’t send me all these languages at once, to record at once.’ And I recorded all of them in four days,” she sighed. “I thought I was going to have a brain aneurysm one night. Because my brain – I mean, I’ve never even spoken Hebrew or Arabic, you know?”

Kelly is joined by French singer Zaz for the French version of “I Dare You”, Moroccan performer Faouzia for the Arabic version, Blas Canto for the Spanish version, Israeli star Maya Bouskilla for the Hebrew version, and electropop duo Glasperlenspiel for the German one.

While she struggled with the Hebrew and Arabic versions, Kelly felt more comfortable singing in European languages, as she “grew up singing opera” and therefore learned to perform in different languages as a child.

Now Kelly is hoping that dropping the new tune amid the coronavirus pandemic will help remind the world that we are united as one.

“I feel like (we) were in a world – even before pandemic times, I mean this song ironically is very fitting right now, but before pandemic times – it’s no secret like, as a nation, we’re super divided,” she explained.

“As a world we’re getting even more divided. So I thought this song would be cool to do in that sense and then all this happened and we were like, ‘Well, I guess we’ll just keep the release date,’ since we’re super connected now globally.”
