** "Breakaway" is one of the absolutely iconic pop songs of the [=2000s=] for a reason. It's an absolutely lovely GainingConfidenceSong with fantastic instrumentals.

* SequelDisplacement: A large number of people outside the U.S. think the popular ''Breakaway'' is Kelly's first album and not ''Thankful'', which was made right after she won ''American Idol''

* SurprisinglyImprovedSequel: ''Thankful'' was an enjoyable but somewhat pedestrian R&B album that was clearly made [[ExecutiveMeddling under a business contract.]] Kelly's second album, ''Breakaway'', was where she really showed her talent as a singer/songwriter and went from being a flash in the pan R&B singer to one of the defining pop singers of the 2000's.
* SuspiciouslySimilarSong: Dr. Luke admitted that "Since U Been Gone" is a sort of musical FixFic of "Maps" by Music/YeahYeahYeahs. He felt that the more subdued chorus of that song didn't do it's intense verses justice, so he reversed the dynamic with subdued verses and an intense chorus. Indeed, not only are both songs in the same key but they have near-identical bridges.

* FanonDiscontinuity: Several of her fans like to forget ''My December''. Creator/SonyMusicEntertainment likes to think of it as CanonDiscontinuity. Within the fandom it is actually an AcclaimedFlop and adored for not being an attempt by Kelly to make ''Breakaway II'' but instead taking a bigger artistic risk, doing an album of more personal, noncommercial songs against her label's wishes. (See TrueArtIsAngsty below). Her next album ''All I Ever Wanted'' was derided by some fans for being a blatant attempt by her label to return to shallow pop, although it does contain some personal songs like the previous album. Almost all her fans would like to forget ''Film/FromJustinToKelly'', though. [[OldShame And so would she.]]

* TrueArtIsAngsty: Some fans consider her low selling ''My December'' album her best because of this trope.

Added DiffLines:

** "Already Gone" has a very similar arrangement to {{Music/Beyonce}}'s "Halo", and both songs were co-written by Music/OneRepublic frontman Ryan Tedder. Once Kelly heard "Halo", she tried to keep "Already Gone" off ''All I Ever Wanted'', fearing she'd be wrongfully blamed for the similarities, but the track-list had already been finalized; ExecutiveMeddling subsequently led to it being released as a single. Because of the similarities, she performed it on the tour promoting the album [[RearrangeTheSong in a new acoustic arrangement]], and even sang it as a medley with "Halo" once.
** "Heartbeat Song" also had many people saying it sounded suspiciously similar to Jimmy Eat World's "The Middle".

* BreakawayPopHit: A somewhat literal example with "Breakaway", which became her first major success after the ''From Justin to Kelly'' fiasco. Hardly anyone remembers it was a tie-in to ''Film/ThePrincessDiaries 2'' (unless you watch the music video).

* WhatDoYouMeanItsNotForKids: Kelly has her music played on Radio Disney, and has starred in a few kids' works like ''WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb'', ''WesternAnimation/HomeAdventuresWithTipAndOh'', ''WesternAnimation/UglyDolls'', and ''WesternAnimation/TrollsWorldTour''. However, some of her songs contain adult themes and mild cursing.
