Joy Woods stopped by The Kelly Clarkson Show on Thursday to perform the song My Days from The Notebook: The Musical, which is currently running on Broadway.

Before the performance, writer Ingrid Michaelson and Woods talked about the new show with Kelly Clarkson and Michaelson reminisced about her experience watching the movie for the first time.

"I was with my friend on Staten Island and we went to Blockbuster and rented it. We watched it and cried and cried and I rememeber thinking, "This is the best movie I've ever seen in my life!"

Talking about changes to the material, Michaelson tells Clarkson that instead of two time periods, there are now three. Specifically, this comes into play when the older Allie is onstage and she is joined by the two younger Allies, who sing the inner thoughts of the character.

They also both discussed the amount of crying from audiences members. Woods remembers the first preview, when she came out on stage and heard heaving sobs from the audience, followed by a "yelp of some sort." 

"It was kind of scary but now we're used to it," Woods laughed.
