Fans continue to beg Clarkson to release a country album.

Kelly Clarkson put her own spin on Ella Langley’s chart-topping hit, “Weren’t For The Wind,” during her “Kellyoke” segment on The Kelly Clarkson Show, and fans are loving it.

Clarkson is known for covering songs across nearly every genre on her show, but there’s something extra special when she delivers a country song. As a Texas native, it’s in her roots, and for years, fans have been begging her to release a full-length country album. While she has dabbled in the genre through collaborations with Jason Aldean, Reba McEntire, and others, a complete project has yet to happen.

As fans await that day, which honestly may never come, they can always count on her to deliver country hits on “Kellyoke,” and her cover of Langley’s hit did not disappoint. The performance even caught the attention of Langley herself, who called it “Insane” and added a few mind-blown emojis, clearly shocked that an iconic artist like Clarkson was covering a song she co-wrote.

Of course, Clarkson’s rendition was flawless and warmly received by fans.

“She has ALWAYS made singing any song, any category absolutely effortless,” one fan wrote, while another shared, “Every country Kellyoke convinces me the most that we need a whole country album.”

“Weren’t For The Wind” was Langley’s first solo No. 1 single and second career No. 1 overall, following “You Look Like You Love Me” featuring Riley Green. Langley co-wrote the song with Joybeth Taylor and Johnny Clawson, with Will Bundy producing.

When the song topped the charts, Langley shared a heartfelt post thanking everyone who has supported her along the way, giving a special shoutout to her co-writers.

“Weren’t For The Wind” is featured on her 18-track project, Still Hungover.

Langley enjoyed an incredible 2025, capping off the year with two sold-out shows at Nashville’s iconic Ryman Auditorium and a standout night at the 59th Annual CMA Awards, where she took home three awards. She also wowed fans with a performance of her red-hot new single, “Choosin’ Texas,” which is quickly climbing the country radio charts.

2026 is already shaping up to be a big year for Langley, who has teased that new music is on the horizon.
