Kelly Clarkson covers Luke Combs for “Kellyoke”

Kelly Clarkson’s widely popular daytime talk show, The Kelly Clarkson Show, became a quick success after it debuted in September 2019.

Clarkson’s talent was first exposed to the world when she competed on and won the inaugural season of American Idol in 2002. To pay homage to the early days of her career, each episode of The Kelly Clarkson Show featureds a musical segment called “Kellyoke.”

During “Kellyoke,” Clarkson picks one of her current favorite songs and performs it with her own personal touch. Recently, she tackled a cover from country music powerhouse Luke Combs.

Luke Combs recorded “Ain’t No Love in Oklahoma” for the Twisters soundtrack

One of the most highly anticipated movies of the summer, Twisters, hit theaters in July. Details of the soundtrack, including the all-star lineup of featured artists, were released before the film’s debut.

Country music staples like Miranda Lambert, Thomas Rhett, Lainey Wilson, Jelly Roll, and more lent their talents to creating songs for Twisters: The Album. The album reached the third spot on the Billboard Top Country Albums charts and the seventh spot on the Billboard 200 all-genre chart.

Luke Combs, Jonathan Singleton, and Jessi Alexander wrote the album’s first available track, the moody country-rock tune “Ain’t No Love In Oklahoma.” Combs simultaneously released the music video, which built even more excitement for the film. See it below!
