alex_bandFinished up all my song ideas for @KrisAllen4Real and now I'm rehearsing for my show in Memphis this Sunday!

Just drove home around 9:15 blasting Heartless on the radio. That station has my boy in heavy rotation. Just sayin'.

That's awesome Ross! :) I need to hear Kris on the radio. Do you remember what website it was that gave the total spins? I know mediabase has something, but I can't find the right link.

Isn't it funny that if some of the people Kris is working with didn't get leak out some info we'd all be totally in the dark? Seriously, Kris is the best secret keeper ever.

Adam just blabbed it all out there at the beginning, and Allison is starting to blab. Kris I would tell all my secrets to.

This is the mediabase thing that I had in my favorites. I don't know how to look up a song.

Mediabase 24/7 - 7 Day Charts

So can you guys get MTV now, or not? Because while I was searching through my favorited stuff I found this by Alex Wagner-Trugman.

Hee! I think he's hilarious. I don't know why we can suddenly watch some MTV. But it's good if it's Jim or Alex.

Thanks for the mediabase link Ross. It's a start. I think I had a searchable one somewhere. I'll have to wander into my favourites... a deadly task.

Aw, I kinda love Alex. He's awesome. TWOP had a debate about Kris and google trends indicating his popularity.. but the good part of that is that it inadvertently led me to what I was looking for. LMAO.. Boston played Heartless 32 times last week.. Okay they are the only station .. but they are dedicated.

Kris and Matt make cameos in Anoop's fan thank you video.

Wow, how weird is it that one station in the entire country is playing Heartless and it's here. What I don't get is how people tweet that they're hearing it on the radio, unless they all happen to live here, which I guess is possible. Well, no, remember the sation in South America that was playing it? And also in Asia.

Remember Gokey tweeting that he went into a 7-11 and heard No Boundaries, while he was here (Boston)? I wonder what station that was on? Probably Sirius Radio, or something.

Did you look up No Boundaries?

Song History

If you scroll all the way down, you can see some stations are playing it while others aren't. (Little Rock -- no surprise.) (It also is being played internationally, though. Or was. I have no clue.)

What was the bad part?

I don't think that site tracks satellite (well I guess it does since some of them are listed - lol) or out of country. It probably doesn't cover every station either there are always some that will slip through the cracks, it's only the stations that report to mediabase.

ha - snap! (I just looked at NB too)

Oh, you know the usual.. no one was interested in Kris his album will fail miserably. In the immortal words of Kris himself Blah-bity-blah-blah.

Yeah, that headline sucks.

But, yay for Kevin Griffin, I guess! He loves his Idols doesn't he? Five of them in the last two years...

Oh, ignore TWoP. Seriously. I never even lurk there. Just Canadian Idol, and that's it.

I always felt bullied by people there with agendas. The 'hate Danny' agenda, the anti-Christian agenda, the Adam-is-better-than-all-of-them agenda. That mod who bans people who disagree with him. Haters. It's like a madhouse.

Google trends? Do these people have lives? Who pays any attention to this ****?

Kris may not be the most popular singer or Idol of all time, I don't know. He's a potentially great artist. The ones who are like Kris don't always sell the most records, after all. He may, and he may not, but what matters is what kind of music he makes. I mean, this guy is not one to think first about the buck, or what gets the most applause. He's trying to be really good. And if he does a good job and succeeds as an artist, that's what matters, and will make him popular in the long run.

I'm always hopeful when someone good doesn't really believe he deserves all the applause and all the praise. It means it's not going to his head, and he has his eye on the ball. He understands what matters. So...

DO NOT WORRY ABOUT KRIS.

That's an order. lol

Another writer for Kris (and Adam? Love Adam... but Is it too much to want Kris to not be linked to Adam even if it's just by writers...grrr)

This guy writes with all the idols. Archie, Cook...a song is a song is a song.

Is it also wrong to not want Kevin Griffin because he has written for 5 Idols in the past two years? Just sayin'...

Did you guys ever run across these interviews from after the finale? They are posted on Star World's website (Hong Kong) But are from the US media outlets.. one long conference call. No wonder they get exhausted.

STAR WORLD - Audio

I don't get that headine. What does it mean?

Better than Ezra had a song called 'Good'.

Oh.

Eh, they just did that because of the alliteration.

I'm still dense, I guess. Did you just think it was stupid, or did it bug you they called Adam "Glambert"? Or was it becasue it mentioned Adam, not Kris?

The last one ;) I don't mind if they mention Adam, but the lack of Kris mention really bugs me. Especially since it isn't like there was any more information in relation to Adam. It was basically that he was possibly working with both of them. The End. so grrr.
