Kelly Clarkson Covers Frank Sinatra’s ‘I Get a Kick Out of You’: Watch – Billboard

Billboard

Kelly Clarkson kicked off the week with a classic on Monday (Nov. 20), when she performed Frank Sinatra’s rendition of “I Get a Kick Out of You.”

“I get no kick from champagne / Mere alcohol doesn’t thrill me at all / So tell me why should it be true / That I get a kick out of you,” Clarkson muses in the chorus, dressed in a black off-the-shoulder top and leopard print maxi skirt.

“I Get a Kick Out of You” was originally written by Cole Porter and first performed in 1934 for the Broadway musical Anything Goes, before it was featured in the 1936 film. Over the years, the track has been covered by legends beyond Sinatra, including Dolly Parton, Ella Fitzgerald, Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga. The Bennett/Gaga rendition was nominated for three awards at the 2022 Grammy Awards, including record of the year.

There’s also a live version of “Mine” live from The Belasco.
