If you heard the song and felt like you were having déjà vu you aren’t imagining things.  The music for the song is remarkably similar to that of Beyoncé’s song “Halo.”  This isn’t a case of Kelly copying someone else – both singers got the shaft.

Kelly that she wrote this song with OneRepublic frontman, Ryan Tedder.  She explained: "Ryan and I met each other at the record label, before he was working with anyone else. … I’d never heard of a song called ‘Halo’. Her [Beyoncé] album came out when my album was already being printed.  No-one’s gonna be sittin’ at home, thinking ‘Man, Ryan Tedder gave Beyoncé and Kelly the same track to write to.’  No, they’re just gonna be saying I ripped someone off. I called Ryan and said, ‘I don’t understand. Why would you do that?’.  In the end, they’re releasing it without my consent. It sucks, but it’s one of those things I have no control over. I already made my album. At this point, the record company can do whatever they want with it. It’s kind of a shitty situation, but. … You know, you learn."

Man… I would be FURIOUS!  Like off the rails pissed off if I were Kelly.  I am glad that she’s the outspoken person that she is and that she set the record straight because I definitely thought there was something weird going on.

Anyway, check out the new music video.  She looks really pretty:
