"MEANING OF LIFE" is the album Kelly Clarkson was destined to make with Atlantic Records, a collection of smart and sensual soul-inspired pop that immediately belongs among the legendary label's classic canon.

The New York Times concurred, declaring simply, "(Clarkson's) voice is as big as ever."

Furthermore, "Meaning of Life" has proven among the LP's unquestioned critical highlights. "A celebratory new song," raved Rolling Stone. "With each colossal chorus, Clarkson injects 'Meaning of Life' with more soul." "'Meaning of Life' is Kelly on her diva steeze," declared Vulture, "inflecting her signature powerhouse wail with a smoker's rasp. Kelly doesn't need to prove a thing to anyone about the quality of her voice, and still she puts on a show of vocal acrobatics on every inch of this gospel-assisted song." Billboarddecreed "Meaning of Life" to be "a doo-wop-tinged belter about an estranged lover...as triumphant as we've come to expect from the pop star." "Another predictably sublime vocal performance from Kelly," applauded Idolator. "She has truly rediscovered her sound over the blazing production." Harper's Bazaar summed it up best: "'Meaning of Life' will give you goosebumps...it packs one soulful punch."
