Thanks for reminding me to vote, SleepinIn. I just did - a lot. Can you tell me where he is on the countdown (and where I can find that, on the site)? I saw he was in the Top 20, but they didn't seem to be ranked. (TIA)

I was reading some of the comments under the video. There were some nice comments, but I think this was my favorite:

this is ok, but truly expected better from Kris.. oh well.. c'est la vie!! TG Adam is around, I can't wait to see him perform on the AMAs Sun the 22nd!!

C'est la vie.

I like listening to Kris acoustic because his voice is showcased and sounds so good. I hope they do that same set when I see them (probably not -- I don't think he likes to repeat himself). Nice sound in the second set of clips!

Kind of surprised by the somewhat noisy audience and what looks like a few people milling around. (I'm going to blame it on teenagers.) Hey, I know! It must be those same people who went to the Idols tour, walking out in droves again as soon as Kris is onstage. Yeah, that must be it. :)

I voted too! He was #10 this week from what I could see, up from #12 last week? Or #14? Do the votes from Canada count? I tried to watch a video and it's not available here, so I was wondering if they counted the votes from Canada.

Thanks for the videos, SleepinIn! I'm going to watch now...

Now I suppose I have to go vote for that damn People's Choice award. See what you did?? Grrr...

Didn't I vote for this guy enough during the season? I'm going to be voting for him for the rest of my frigging life. He already owes his career to me, what more does he want? Geez.

So true. I like that Kris is changing things up, makes it interesting. Heartless/Gangsta is awesome and MITM seems to just get better and better.. I think Buffalo is going to be more like Sacramento set wise, although if he does Heartless/Gangsta I think he would slay them. Buffalo is the station that played that on the air. Justin Beiber is making an important announcement at Kissmas bash with a special video message.. lmao. Tweens will go wild I'm sure.

Your concert will be really cool I think *jealous* The accoustics will be awesome.

Just the important stuff, (no more twitter walls for me) someone at MJ's said that the sales of the single improved on the weekend after the video was played on VH1. I've only been voting for Kris, I hope that counts. I should check on that. lol. I think they count Canadian votes, or they seem to anyway.. they may be humouring us.

Either of you read TWOP today..? so hilarious. There was a posting from a certain person, and then a lot of replies of snarky agreement.. very funny stuff. That person is a broken record. lmao.

Yes, the VH1 countdown is supposedly really good promotion. I learned tonight though (from reliable people) that it's mostly based on the HAC chart and just a little on fan votes. If a song starts to fall down the chart, they will remove the video from the countdown, even if it's still has a lot of fan votes.

Wow! LMAO!!! (Was the line 'ITA with all "three" of you' supposed to be snark as well, re the multiple personality of a certain poster???) That stuff was hilarious.

Thanks--that sounded good. Did they do Alright With Me? They need to do that. They need to do that. They'd better do it tomorrow.

I was in Newbury Comics today (record store). This is where I bought Kris's CD. When I bought it there were about 20-30 copies on the "new this week" endcap, and about 10-15 more in the "Top 30" section. Today there were three left. What that means, I don't know. That they sold about 35-40 copies? Assuming they haven't put any more out since Nov. 17th, which they may have. The only no-so-great thing is that they moved Kris lower on the endcap to make room for Allison's CD (there were about 30 of them -- all across the top). SuBo's CD was under Allison's, right in the center, under above Justin Beiber and Adam. There were about 12 Adam CD's and there were 12 more in the "Top 30" section (Kris was no longer in this section.) SuBo was #1 in this section, Adam was #15. (I don't know how they determine this Top 30.) Kris's CD is kind of hard to see, due to the cover. Adam's is very easy to see, due to the cover. Anyhow, it seemed like Kris's CD had sold pretty well. Adam's may have, also, and maybe they brought out more copies. Who knows?

I don't know, the guy's battery was sputtering, so I don't think we saw the last song, it might have been AWM, I hope he does it for you too. That would be awesome.

Not a whole lot of Kris on this Kiwi thing. He just played Allison though. :)

Small interview with Kris from Buffalo. Kris addresses the AMA thing (again) He was pretty funny, and said he was going to make a shirt with a picture of him shrugging, lol.

I was checking on the CD's in Walmart - another unscientific poll. At first I thought there wasn't much Kris and a whole lot of Adam but then I found them on another shelf. And they were together, probably about the same amount. No Allison though.. :/

The snark continues on TWoP, huh? Isn't there a thread called "After Idol Prospects?" If so, why does Sybil, or whatever that poster with the muliple personalities calls herself, post her prognostications of Kris's career doom over there? I don't think the KA thread is the place to be making predictions of the demise of Kris's career. It's supposed to be for discussing Kris as a performer, I believe.
