However, some critics compared this song toAlicia Keys' single "Doesn't Mean Anything"(2009) andBruno Mars' single "Just the Way You Are"(2010). The song became a commercial success, it became her ninth top-ten hit on theBillboardHot 100,and topped theBillboardAdult Pop Songschart.

The song's accompanying music video was directed byJustin Francisand features a "wall of doubt" background in which derogatory headlines about Clarkson are posted. Several of the critics noted the video's informal fallacy approach to mainstream media. Clarkson has performed "Mr. Know It All" in various locations around the world, most notably at the2011 NRL Grand Final,on theAustralian,BritishandGermanversions of the television seriesThe X Factor,and on the set-list of herStronger Tour.

Background and release

edit

During an interview withRyan Seacrest,Clarkson revealed that "Mr. Know It All" was the last song recorded by her in February 2011 inNashville, Tennessee.[1]At the live single event, Clarkson then stated that the reason she picked the song as the first single because "it was unlike any other song that I really ever came up with." She later added that "Secondly, just because it's very different from a first single for me. Usually we go with an anthem, guitar-driven song. This is very different... It's just super sassy and it sets up the album nicely," such as "Never Again"(2007) and"My Life Would Suck Without You"(2009).[2]On August 17, 2011, Clarkson revealed that the first single will be "Mr. Know It All," which was set to be released late August. On August 26, 2011, the song leaked online.[4]On August 30, 2011, at 5:30 PM ET, the song was played during a live webcast Clarkson hosted on her official website. The song was available as a digital download from September 5, 2011.[5][6]Fans who pre-orderedStrongeron Clarkson's official store received the single for free upon its September 5 release.[7]Clarkson recorded an acoustic version of the song for her second extended playiTunes Sessionin December 2011. In April 2012, a country version, containing re-recorded vocals, of the song, produced byDann Huffwas released.[3]

Composition

edit

Clarkson described "Mr. Know It All" as "different from any of her other singles because the message is not just about relationships. Even though Clarkson admits she has a list of people that have brought her down, she states that the song is also about ignorant people who think they know everything about someone."[1]Monica Herrera of theRolling Stoneremarked, "Clarkson narrows her octave range – no American Idol glory notes here – and sasses a controlling man with double-entendres (" Baby, I ain't goin' down ") that up her R&B appeal."[8]

Critical reception

edit

Unlike several of Kelly's leaks, which have gone down a more traditional pop-rock road, "Mr. Know It All" has a distinct R&B flavor, showcasing a side to her vocals we haven't seen in a while. As opposed to the "Since U Been Gone"Kelly, the" Mr. Know It All "Kelly sounds softer and more feminine as she sings."

MTV Buzzworthynoting Clarkson's departure from her signature pop rock sound[9]

The song has received generally favorable reviews. Upon hearing the single,MTV Newscommented, "The song is an obvious Clarkson joint: feisty and straightforward, with a strong melody and a sing-along chorus."[10]Entertainment Weeklyremarked, "We love it too, Kelly. Especially since we’re not the men involved."[11]Billboardstated that "Clarkson's lyrical message may be one of sass and strength (as fans have come to expect from her), but musically," Mr. Know It All "is a bit softer; instead of rock-focused energy, the single goes midtempo with touches of piano and subtle strings."VH1reluctantly admitted their positive review, stating "We don’t have to lie. The mid-tempo ballad isn’t our favorite of her tracks, and we wish her vocals were mixed higher, but we dig it nonetheless."[12]

Some of the critics noticed the song's striking resemblance to Alicia Keys' single "Doesn't Mean Anything" (2009) and Bruno Mars' single "Just the Way You Are" (2010). Music websitePopdustfocused on its resemblance, remarking "The resemblance is as blatant as that of"Already Gone"and"Halo,"but at least those two had the same songwriter (Ryan Tedder). "Mr. Know It All" was written by a collection of non-Smeezingtons, none of whom apparently heard or cared about the resemblance. "later adding," To Clarkson’s credit–and at this point, the track really needs credit–she sells the song with all her considerable vocal worth, and she sounds punchier and more engaged on the verses than she did on much ofAll I Ever Wanted.The fault lies with the songwriters, not the vocalist. "[13]Bill Lamb fromAbout.comrated it four-and-a-half stars out of five and went to praise "the understated vocals with perfect nuance", "the production that wisely gets out of the way of the vocals" and "the words of strength".[14]Lamb also wrote that "Mr. Know It All" features one of the most impressive female pop vocals of 2011. The raspy approach here matches the strength informed by pain of the lyrics of the song. It is a style decision that makes the brief moments of gentle clarity in her voice even more affecting. "[14]On March 5, 2013,Billboardranked the song #23 in its list of Top 100 American Idol Hits of All Time.[15]

Chart performance

edit

"Mr. Know It All" debuted in number 30 onBillboardAdultPop Songschart just hours after its release and peaked at number 1.[16]The song then debuted on theBillboardHot 100chart on September 24, 2011, at number 18, her highest single debut on the chart since "Never Again", which debuted at number 8 in 2007. It also debuted on theBillboardDigital Songs at number 9 with 107,000 downloads sold, and at theBillboardPop Songs chart at number 29.[17]On the first-week release ofStronger,"Mr. Know It All" rose up on the Hot 100 chart from number 19 to number 10, becoming Clarkson's first top ten hit since "My Life Would Suck Without You" in 2009, and her ninth top ten overall.[18]As of September 2017, "Mr. Know It All" has sold 1,919,000 paid digital downloads in the United States.[19]

"Mr Know It All" also debuted at number one on the digital sales chart for international artists onSouth Korea'sGaon Chart,with around 180,000 downloads.[20]On September 26, 2011, the track debuted on the AustralianARIACharts at number 25 and peaked at the number 1 position following a promotional tour by Clarkson, which included a performance at the2011 NRL Grand FinalandThe X Factor.[21]The song reached number 46 on the AustralianARIAEnd of Year Charts. In the United Kingdom, "Mr. Know It All" debuted at number 6 on October 23, 2011, the same day she performed the single during the third live results show of season 8 ofThe X Factor.The song rose to and reached its peak of number 4 the following week.

In early 2012, Clarkson and producerDann Huffremixed the song for thecountry musicformat. The single version was given a release date of April 2012,[22]although it had already entered theHot Country Songscharts at number 59 on the chart dated February 25, 2012.[23]

Music video

edit

Background

edit

Filming of the music video for the song took place on August 25, 2011, in Nashville and was directed byJustin Francis.[24][25]Clarkson explained that "The idea behind the video is variety. The whole point of the song that I like is ‘you don’t know a thing about me.' I love that concept because it’s ignorant to think you know everything about a person. There’s many sides to everybody’s personality. We’re kind of doing a variety of different Kellys." The video featured a "wall of doubt" in which headlines about Clarkson such as "Why So Single Kelly?", "Sponsors Drop Kelly Clarkson", "Too Fat", "Music Leaks" and "Kelly has no style" are posted. Clarkson remarked it as "basically all the crap that’s been said about me that’s kind of funny or ridiculous…we’re playing with that…it’s how I handle it…kind of sarcastic and funny." Another feature of the video is Clarkson dressed in a long gown with feathers on her hair which represents freedom.[26]The video premiered on VEVO on September 26, 2011.[27]In an interview with MTV News, Clarkson described herself in the video,

"I think there's that free-spirit side of me, and then there's that feisty performer in me, Then there's the funny side of me. I mean, obviously you have to be funny to have a big giant wall of doubt with actual headlines of your life on the wall. It's a little fun, a little feisty."[28]

The video Clarkson was watching was actually a scene from her previous music video "I Do Not Hook Up",the second single fromAll I Ever Wanted,which makes a reference to a scene ofCameron Diazin the filmWhat Happens in Vegas.And the fictional internet article featured in the video was taken from the website Kovideo.net and was edited to avoid plagiarism charges.[29]The article featured a real-life situation in Clarkson's career where several demos of the songs originally recorded forStrongerwere leaked into the internet in July 2011. Clarkson responded to the situation by stating "Oh my God, have you ever been robbed? I have. I’ve been physically robbed a couple of times, but this is much worse." later adding "No point in getting angry because there's nothing I can do so I hope (everyone) likes the music."[30]

Synopsis and reception

edit
Close-up screenshot of the "Wall of Doubt", containing derogatory headlines about Clarkson.

The video features Clarkson singing behind a wall full of newspaper articles, both derogatory and favorable, about Clarkson's music career and personal life. The video continually cuts Clarkson confronting a man as a metaphor for "Mr. Know It All" by singing angrily at him. Throughout the chorus, silhouettes Clarkson's touring band fade into the wall as she sings. The video then features Clarkson watching the music video of her single "I Do Not Hook Up"on aSony Google TVwhile reading an internet article about the song leaking into the internet. Clarkson later scans through the comments section and laughs at it sarcastically. The video then depicts Clarkson packing her clothes and accessories in a suitcase then leaves the man behind. The video then features Clarkson, dressed in a velvet dress, singing with feathers on her hair. In the final shot of the video, Clarkson tears some of the newspaper clippings at the wall, creating a hole and revealing a sunny, beautiful valley and a road, similar to the one featured in the music video ofMadonna's single "Don't Tell Me",in which Clarkson enters along with her suitcase.[29]

Several of the critics noted the video's approach to media, in which they assumed that the "Mr. Know It All" is an individual man. Brad Wete ofEntertainment Weekly,remarked that "It’s interesting how she used the video to kill two birds with one stone. The song itself is about a misinformed individual, but the clip takes a swipe at the media and blogosphere. Personally, I prefer more direct musical approaches—likeMichael Jackson’s "Tabloid Junkie.”But Clarkson’s song is cool. "[31]VH1remarked, "When we first heard Kelly Clarkson‘s latest single, “Mr. Know It All,” we figured that, thematically, it was a fairly straightforward kiss off to an ex that did her dirty. However, after watching the video for the song that debuted in the wee hours this morning, it's apparent that there's another target for her ire: The media. "adding," However, it turns that it’s not just old media that’s got Kelly down. The blogs are on her case, too! "and later concluding," Whether you’re a big music superstar or someone whose only exposure to the rumor mill comes courtesy of Facebook, gossip is unavoidable. How you choose to react to the haters, however, is entirely up to you. You can wallow in their nasty comment sections (or op-ed pages!), but at the end of the day, wouldn’t you rather go outside and see the sunshine? Kelly Clarkson would, that’s for sure. "[29]Hollywood.comremarked "Clarkson puts a man (whose face we never see) in his place for thinking that he knows everything about her. While she's a few unicorns and eccentric costumes shy of creating aKaty PerryorLady Gagaexperience, she brings enough sass and glamour to the video to make it worth watching. The lyrics itself are powerful, but her meaningful looks into the camera and bold demand for independence really help to drive the message home. "[32]
