American Idol 8 Kris Allen “No Boundaries”
May 19, 2009 by Jeanne
Kris Allen took a crack at singing the winner’s song “No Boundaries” and he seemed almost as uncomfortable as Adam was at first. He seemed to stumble with the lyrics a little bit I think his performance of the single was the better of the two. He also had some microphone handling issues.
Randy said that Kris should be very proud of what he’s done in this competition and that the song fit his voice better than Adam’s. Kara said that she wants him to be judged on the fact that he’s an incredible artist. Paula said that Kris has done an amazing job and that it’s been one of the most compelling finales. Simon said that watching him tonight has been incredible to think about how far he’s come and that Kris thoroughly deserved to be standing on the stage tonight.

I like Kris Allen better than I do Adam Lambert, but because Lambert has more charisma, I think he’s going to get this year’s Idol title.
Allen’s jacket rocks though. xD
Not sure how he could have possibly screwed up the lyrics. If you looked closely, the camera panned twice to the audience revealing a teleprompter!!!! I hated the No Boundaries song – too many words – didn’t give either contestant a chance to showcase their vocals. There hasn’t been a song written for the show since season 1 that has been good. Maybe they should all sing “A Moment Like This!”
i love KRIS ALLEN a lot!!!….and i think he really deserves to win!!!…for him to win tomorrow would be a dream come true to me!!!!….i’d been watching him since the beginning….and he’s my all time favorite!!!…can’t wait for the release of his first album!!!!….i love his version of no boundaries!!!!…
Here is a funny blog bashing her song. Hilarious!
