Kelly Clarkson<\/a> has joined Spotify<\/a>\u2019s Billions Club.<\/p>\n

The singer reached the milestone with her 2004 hit \u2018Since U Been Gone\u2019, which is also her first track to surpass one billion streams on the platform.<\/p>\n

Written and produced by Max Martin and Dr. Luke, \u2018Since U Been Gone\u2019 was released as the second single from Clarkson\u2019s 2004 album, \u2018Breakaway\u2019.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s one of Clarkson\u2019s most famous songs, reaching Number Two on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in 2005 and winning a Grammy Award the following year for best female pop vocal performance.<\/p>\n

Its music video also earned two MTV Video Music Awards in 2005 for best female video and best pop video.<\/p>\n

Speaking about the song in a recent interview with Apple Music, Clarkson said: \u201cI love what the song does for people, I love that it was very different in demo form sent to me. Behind the scenes, it was not so fun to record because of situations I won\u2019t talk about, because I won\u2019t sell people out.\u201d<\/p>\n

She added: \u201cBut I will say, my favourite memory, if I\u2019m being more positive about it, was the fact that I got to show up to a video shoot and completely trash an apartment, and that was my job. That video was possibly one of my favourite videos ever to make, because literally I just got to just have rage, and just break stuff all day long.\u201d<\/p>\n

Other recent additions to the Billions Club include\u00a0Alicia Keys<\/a>\u2019 \u2018No One\u2019,\u00a0Arctic Monkeys<\/a>\u2019 \u2018Fluorescent Adolescent\u2019,\u00a0Kate Bush<\/a>\u2019s \u2018Running Up That Hill\u2019 and\u00a0Rage Against The Machine<\/a>\u2019s \u2018Killing In The Name\u2019.<\/p>\n

Back in April, Metallica<\/a>\u2019s \u2018Master Of Puppets\u2019 reached the one billion milestone<\/a>, and the band urged fans to \u201csend it on its way to two billion\u201d.<\/p>\n

In other news, earlier this year, Clarkson celebrated the 1,000th episode of her US chat show by sharing that she had \u201clost a lot\u201d since the show began<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Kelly Clarkson Show\u00a0is well known for its \u2018Kellyoke\u2019 segment, in which the host performs esoteric cover versions of beloved pop and alternative classics, including in recent times\u00a0Billie Eilish\u2019s \u2018Birds Of A Feather\u2019<\/a>, as well as tracks by\u00a0Weezer<\/a>,\u00a0Chappell Roan<\/a>,\u00a0The Last Dinner Party<\/a>, and\u00a0My Chemical Romance<\/a>, among others. It also birthed a covers EP by Clarkson in 2022.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Kelly Clarkson has joined Spotify\u2019s Billions Club.
