Kelly Clarkson’s Son Remy Shows Musical Talent on TV Show

It’s probably too early to know if Kelly Clarkson’s 8-year-old son Remy inherited his mom’s talent, but he’s definitely got her charm and confidence.

Remy’s Musical Debut on The Kelly Clarkson Show

As his mom recounted on The Kelly Clarkson Show on Wednesday (Nov. 27), “[He] just walked right in today and said, ‘Who do I need to speak to to sing my song?’ I said, ‘OK, sir.’ They’re so much fun. I love my kids so much.”

Remy’s Performance of “My Way”

Clarkson played about 25 seconds of video of Remy warming up the studio audience prior to that day’s taping with a cover version of – of all things – the Frank Sinatra classic “My Way.” Clarkson’s 10-year-old daughter, River, provided backup vocal support (and, no doubt, moral support) from the audience. The studio audience gave Remy a warm round of applause.

The Legacy of “My Way”

The song is generally performed by performers at midlife – Sinatra was 53 when he cut it – looking back at their lives and taking stock of their successes and failures. The English lyrics, written by Paul Anka, include this gem: “Regrets, I’ve had a few/ But then again, too few to mention.”

Sinatra’s version reached No. 27 on the Billboard Hot 100 in May 1969 and received a Grammy nod for best contemporary vocal performance, male. His recording was selected for the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2000. R&B star Brook Benton and Elvis Presley also had Hot 100 hits with the song. (Presley’s version, released after he died in 1977, climbed even higher on the Hot 100 than Sinatra’s version had – No. 22.) Sex Pistols‘ bassist Sid Vicious recorded a punk rock version of the song in 1978. In 2018, Willie Nelson recorded the ballad as the title song of a Grammy-winning collection of Sinatra covers.

“My Way” was an adaptation of the French song “Comme d’habitude,” which was composed by Jacques Revaux with lyrics by Gilles Thibaut and Claude François. It was first performed in 1967 by François.
