Cascading guitar licks, thumping bass, pounding percussion and rousing runs— these are the elements that compose a Kelly Clarkson uptempo. Her latest, “favorite kind of high,” is not a new experiment. The third single from Clarkson’s forthcoming album “chemistry” follows a pair of emotive ballads and serves to reenergize the era. On it, she electrifyingly belts out a bop about that feeling when the chemistry is right. Though the song’s familiar production doesn’t forge any new ground (it’s reminiscent of her own hits, P!nk, and Maroon 5), the infectiously fervid vocals from a newly-liberated Clarkson make it soar.
