Kelly Clarkson turned heads with an epic cover of one of Blink-182’s most iconic hits on The Kelly Clarkson Show.
On Wednesday (Jan. 11), the Emmy-award winning daytime talk show host rocked the Kellyoke segment of The Kelly Clarkson Show with an epic performance of Blink-182’s “All The Small Things,” alongside her band, Y’all.
“All the small things / True care, truth brings / I’ll take one lift / Your ride, best trip / Always, I know / You’ll be at my show / Watching, waiting / Commiserating,” Clarkson sings on the tune’s first verse, before belting out the chorus, “Say it ain’t so, I will not go / Turn the lights off, carry me home / Na-na, na-na, na-na, na-na, na, na / Na-na, na-na, na-na, na-na, na, na / Na-na, na-na, na-na, na-na, na, na / Na-na, na-na, na-na, na-na, na, na.”

Written by Mark Hoppus and Tom DeLonge, “All The Small Things” appears as the second single and the eighth track from the group’s third studio album, Enema Of The State (1999). The tune, which is one of the band’s most successful songs to date, was Blink-182’s first crossover hit on Pop radio and peaked at No. 6 on the Billboard Hot 100 and their only song to debut in the Top 40.
Clarkson has shared a variety of covers during the “Kellyoke” segment of The Kelly Clarkson Show across all genres. From chart-topping country tunes to rock hits, Clarkson has delivered epic covers of some of the biggest hits, including renditions of Lizzo’s “Good As Hell,” Jonas Brother’s “Sucker,” Shelton‘s “Who Are You When I’m Not Looking,” Billy Currington’s “Let Me Down Easy,” Pam Tillis’ “Maybe It Was Memphis,” Wynonna’s “No One Else On Earth,” Jo Dee Messina’s “Heads Carolina, Tails California” and many others.
The Kelly Clarkson Show, which was recently renewed for an additional two seasons extending the show to 2025, returned in September with appearances by Garth Brooks and Blake Shelton.
“Kelly Clarkson is one of the brightest stars of our time,” NBCUniversal Executive Vice President of Syndicated Studios, Tracie Wilson, said. “With more than 500 hours viewed on broadcast, cable and digital platforms since its launch, ‘The Kelly Clarkson Show’ has been a home for stories that entertain, inspire important conversations and connect with loyal viewers across multiple generations in meaningful ways. Together, with our best-in-class producing team, we’ll continue to build on the show’s success and legacy.”

After a brief leave from NBC’s The Voice, Kelly Clarkson will return to her big red chair on season 23 of the popular singing competition show alongside Blake Shelton and first-time coaches Niall Horan and Chance the Rapper.
Clarkson’s return will mark her first season since winning with Girl Named Tom on season 21.
In between hosting The Kelly Clarkson Show and appearing on the upcoming season of The Voice, Clarkson is gearing up to release a brand-new album, which is slated to arrive sometime this year.
“This is an important album. I’m working on this in therapy: I have a hard time vocalizing what I’m feeling sometimes, so music is helpful for me. It’s just been really healing,” Clarkson recently told Variety. “When my ex and I first separated, there were many emotions. It was hard. I hadn’t really been working hardcore on an album until I needed to. I was just very busy. There were so many jobs, and I’m a single mom — well, even with being married, it’s a lot, trying to fit kids’ schedules in and all that stuff. But then the whole divorce thing happened, and I needed to write it.”
Meanwhile, Blink-182 recently reunited with Tom Delonge and announced a massive world tour and a brand-new single with DeLonge called “Edging.”
Produced by Live Nation, the just-announced outing marks the group’s biggest tour ever and the first time in nearly 10 years that Mark Hoppus, Tom DeLonge and Travis Barker will share the stage together.
Blink-182 is set to embark on the colossal outing, which will visit North America, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand starting March 2023 through February 2024. The trek will also include the band’s first ever performances in Latin America.
The massive tour will kick off on March 11, 2023, in Latin America at Imperial GNP (Festival) in Tijuana, MX and continue through February 26, 2023, where the tour will wrap up in Christchurch, NZ at Christchurch Arena!.
The tour announcement also features multiple festival appearances in Latin America and the US, including Lollapalooza alongside co-headliners Billie Eilish & Drake and the 2023 edition of When We Were Young Festival with Green Day among others.
