Kelly Clarkson has channeled her post-divorce emotions into a scorching new song titled “Red Flag Collector.” This riveting track serves as a fiery revelation, as Clarkson fearlessly puts her ex-husband, Brandon Blackstock, on blast.
The Song Is Inspired By Clarkson’s Post-Divorce Anger
Clarkson has long intertwined her personal experiences with her musical journey, and “Red Flag Collector” is no exception. As the song begins, a grungy guitar riff sets the tone, serving as an auditory representation of the raw emotions fueling her performance. Despite the end of her marriage to Blackstock three years ago, the track exudes an aura of celebration rather than mourning.
Through the song’s defiant lyrics, Clarkson showcases her unyielding spirit and determination to move forward. The song then culminates in a powerful chorus, where Clarkson reflects on the lessons she has learned about love, admitting that sometimes it simply isn’t enough. Her vocal prowess and the inclusion of Latin horns add depth and flavor to the track, which then leaves listeners awestruck.
Accompanying the song’s release is a live music video filmed at the historic Belasco Theater in Los Angeles. In the video’s introduction, Clarkson reveals her motivation behind “Red Flag Collector,” emphasizing the need to channel her divorce-induced frustrations into creative expression rather than destructive impulses.
“Red Flag Collector” joins the ranks of other amazing tracks from Chemistry, including the previously released singles “Mine / Me,” “Favorite Kind of High,” and the collaborative effort with comedian and banjoist Steve Martin, “I Hate Love.”
