Original Song by Jeff Daniels Tears Kelly Clarkson Apart

Jeff Daniels: Actor and Songwriter Extraordinaire

Jeff Daniels, renowned for his acclaimed acting career, has garnered nominations for Golden Globes, Primetime Emmy Awards, and Tony Awards, with notable roles in films like Arachnophobia, Dumb and Dumber, and Speed. However, many are unaware of his musical talents, which came to light during his appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show.

With an acoustic guitar in hand, Jeff introduced his original song, “When My Fingers Find Your Strings,” describing it as a love song to his guitar, inspired by moments spent on the porch with his “best friend, the guitar.” As he performed, Kelly Clarkson was visibly moved, exclaiming to the audience, “What is happening?” The heartfelt performance left both Jeff and Kelly in tears by the end.

The audience in the studio and viewers online were equally captivated. The video of his performance quickly amassed over 1.4 million views in less than ten days. Fans praised his musical talent, with one commenting, “Jeff Daniels isn’t even known for music, yet that was one of the most heartfelt, poetic and well-structured songs I’ve ever heard. Not to mention some pretty good guitar playing. That, folks, is talent!”

In the interview segment, Jeff revealed to Kelly that he has written approximately 450 original songs over the years. He shared that songwriting has been a source of solace and comfort, especially during the early years of his acting career. It was a creative outlet he could fully control, providing a backup plan if acting didn’t pan out. Reflecting on his dual talents, he humorously remarked that he thought he could “fail as an actor and then fail as a singer-songwriter.” Clearly, he has excelled in both arenas.
