Kelly Clarkson starts every one of her talk shows singing a cover of someone else’s songs and many are quite memorable, but one she did this week where she covered Martina’s McBride’s “Broken Wing,” a song Martina took to the top of Billboird’s country chart in 1998, was just epic.

Kelly’s version of the song gives you chills especially when she hits the super high and long notes by the song’s end.

Check out the performance below.

“Broken Wing” was McBride’s second number one song and came from her 1997 album Evolution.

Jordin Sparks covered the song on her 2007 EP Jordin Sparks. Her version of the song made number 66 on the Billboard Hot 100.
