  Breakaway (song) - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
"Breakaway" is the first single (in North America and Australia only) from Breakaway, the second album by pop rock singer, Kelly Clarkson, although the song is often seen as a stopgap between "The Trouble with Love Is" and "Since U Been Gone".
The song is most remembered for helping her to popularize and explore the pop rock sound to a greater degree for the first time (a new feel that would be solidified in her next single, "Since U Been Gone").
The song is also remembered for its chart longevity, entering in the summer of 2004 and not leaving until the summer of 2005.

The song was originally written in part by Avril Lavigne for her sophomore album, Under My Skin, but she did not release it as she did not feel the song suited her album at the time.
The song also helped her popularize and explore a change to her new pop rock sound (a new feel that would be solidified in her next single, "Since U Been Gone").
The song's longevity in part can be attributed to the song's steady digital downloads, which have gained the single a certification of a platinum digital single.

 Girlposse.com Music Reviews and News - Kelly Clarkson - Breakaway CD review
Kelly Clarkson’s “Breakaway,” one of the most anticipated albums of 2004, was released by the RCA Records label in November.
Indulge me. I wrote this song about being in a crowd, you’re screaming at the top of your lungs and no one is listening.
The first two singles, "Breakaway" and the harder hitting "Since U Been Gone", were a great look into what this CD has to offer.

 Blogcritics.org: Kelly Clarkson: Breakaway
A bloody fine song should be a bloody fine song, regardless of whether a singer is singing a song she didn't write.
Most of the songs don't grate as much as most pop today, and this is due to the strength of Clarkson's voice.
As for her songwriting abilities, can I just point out that the best songs on the album Breakaway are the ones she had a hand in writing.

Instead she dug in her heels and allowed good sense (or a good manager) to steer, and somewhere Simon Fuller and the rest of the TV gang ought to be smiling.
Those songs set the tone for the rest of the disc in all its fury: The innocence is long gone, "Addicted" and "Hear Me" say.
Following her success with Since U Been Gone she released 'Behind these Hazel Eyes' which is one of the best songs on the album and made many rush to the stores to pick up this album...and so glad they were.

Breakaway: Alright, this is probably my millionth impression of this song since late June, but hey, I still love it.
It's just right for this song because it adds to the emotion, as though Kelly is crying for her love while she sings.
This has also been my personal favorite Kelly song since the first time I listened to "Thankful." I love the piano version a million times more than the album version because Kelly interprets it more.

 Kelly Clarkson : Breakaway - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
So, her second album, Breakaway, released late in 2004, was a pivotal moment for her, a chance to prove that she was not a one-hit wonder, a chance to prove that she could have a real, vibrant career.
This time around, the dance-pop elements have been almost entirely stripped away, and the record instead is a rock-influenced, MOR pop affair, not entirely dissimilar to Ashlee Simpson's Autobiography, only a little bit smoother and not as heavy on guitars.
Breakaway has different emotions to each song but each one is great in its own way.

 Kris Kristofferson : Breakaway - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
The Kristofferson/Coolidge albums were very different from each artist's solo albums, though somewhat closer to Coolidge's because they consisted largely of cover songs and the keys were set to her voice, with Kristofferson singing at the upper edge of his narrow range.
He tended to take brief vacations from songwriting for their sessions of love songs, but this album was sparked by two of his old songs, neither of which he had previously recorded, though they had been hits for others.
But the tracks that garnered the most attention were their revival of the old Clyde McPhatter hit "Lover Please" (written by Kristofferson sideman Billy Swan), which reached the easy listening charts as a single and won the duo a second Grammy, and their version of Larry Gatlin's "Rain," a country and easy listening chart entry.

I know she is frequently compared to Christina Aguilera, but I think Kelly's voice is a lot more controlled and inviting, and she doesn't have that nasal quality to her voice that Christina has when she pushes herself too much.
I think this is going to be a big song for Kelly this summer...She isn't the usual artists that I veer to, but I really think she has a great voice.
I'm happy to hear Kelly wrote most of the songs on her forthcoming album, I'm actually interested in hearing it.

First single and leadoff track "Breakaway" topped the pop charts on arrival, and its rock-friendly thumps, dips, and rolls don't wear out their welcome; they blend, instead, into the firestorm of beats and guitars that is "Since U Been Gone," another shout-it-out rocker.
Those songs set the tone for the rest of the disc in all its fury: The innocence is long gone, numbers including "Addicted" and "Hear Me" say collectively, and Clarkson's of a mind to kick it.
Its properly titled "Breakaway" because she's breaking away from her crap that she released on her first album.
