The Kelly Clarkson Show Host and former The Voice Coach (Seasons 14-21, 23) covered "Jaded" by Cyrus, a pop star herself and fellow former Voice Coach (Season 11, Season 13). And Clarkson's rendition was so emotional.

The singer put her heart, soul, and plenty of voice into the song, which is about pitying an ex because he isn't even mourning the break-up of an important relationship. Listen to her stunning performance here:

What to know about "Jaded" by Miley Cyrus

"Jaded" was the third single off Cyrus' 2023 album Endless Summer Vacation. According to Genius, it was produced by Greg Kurstin, who told Billboard, "Ron Perry and [Miley’s co-manager] Jonathan Daniel both reached out to me about Miley. We initially got together to write songs and 'Jaded' came out of one of our sessions with [writer] Sarah Aarons. We spent a lot of time at my studio. Miley is great to work with because she has a clear vision of what she wants and she doesn’t stop until she gets it. She’s also a lot of fun."

"Jaded" by Miley Cyrus lyrics 

I don't wanna call and talk too long
I know it was wrong, but never said I was sorry
Now I've had time to think it over
We're much older and the bone's too big to bury

Oh, isn't it a shame that it ended like that?
Said goodbye forever, but you never unpacked
We went to Hell, but we never came back

I'm sorry that you're jaded
I could've taken you places
You're lonely now and I hate it
I'm sorry that you're jaded

You're not even willing to look at your part
You just jump in your car and head down to the bar 'til you're blurry
Don't know when to stop, so you take it too far
I don't know where you are and I'm left in the dark 'til I'm worried
Oh, and it hurts me

And it's a fucking shame that it ended like that
You broke your own heart, but you'd never say that
We went to Hell, but we never came back

I'm sorry that you're jaded (jaded)
I could've taken you places (places)
You're lonely now and I hate it
I'm sorry that you're jaded

I won't lie, it won't be easy
When somebody new's on your body
I'll change my number but keep your T-shirt
I don't mind it's torn up and faded

I'm sorry that you're jaded (jaded)
I could've taken you places (places)
You're lonely now and I hate it
I'm sorry that you're jaded

I'm sorry that you're jaded
