From the heartfelt "Before Too Long" and the raw emotion of "Darlin’ It Hurts," to the narrative brilliance of "To Her Door," the singalong favorite "How To Make Gravy," and the powerful messages in "Dumb Things" and "From Little Things Big Things Grow," Kelly’s music continues to inspire and captivate.
