Haha. (BTW, refreshing to read an article mentioning Kris where KK and her "friends" haven't visited the comments section.)
So KAB will have to be on their toes. The fact is, though, Kris has the voice.
I wouldn't be surprised if they do go to Boston though, Boston had that interview up with them. Live in the Vineyard too - that might convince some skeptics.
You know lots of Kris fans were mad at Jive for releasing The Truth as a second single. They were mad because they felt it is not "single material". I'm sure they like the song, but they didn't like it as a single. I 'm having the same feeling about Archie's "Elevator" and it has nothing to do with "personal taste". The thing is, if he can’t sell enough records, he will be in the jeopardy of being dropped. We all have seen that every season with promising Idol contestants. Look at Allison... I'm not sure she will be signed by another major record label. I wish her well though.Everyone will always have their own ideas about what they like musically. That's pretty much a given. We all just like what we like.

BTW, I've just learned that Tim Urban is working on a CD and it will be released on November . It will be funny if he outsells Lee
The American Idol winner Kris Allen recorded one of your songs Live Like We're Dying. That must have been a nice earner?
It was great. Many radio stations had to decide if they were going to add Break Even or Live Like We're Dying to their playlist that week. But both were our songs so we won. That song is up to two million in the US, so we've sold four million songs there.
We love exactly what you do. Now do it differently. We can't have an Indy type artist on a major label. Why the bleep not?
I'm not in the loop apparently. I guess I'm just supposed to sing songs and be a lame obiedient dog. Sorry, not this woman.
Do you know how hard I tried to become what you want me to be...Jive
I don't really know how smart it is for Crystal to go on the attack like that though before releasing a single thing, because is Jive any different from any other label? You're right missaddicted the business comes first for them. And they could sit on her album forever if they wanted to while owning a good chunk of whatever she's writing during this period.
I'm curious to see how this will all unfold.
So, new Idol judges? Zzzzzzz.
Heh. There's always some useless angsting somewhere, right? Not that I don't understand people being pissed that other idols are being dismissed, but being angry at Nigel doesn't seem worth it, IMO.
Oh, and Come Back To Me is now a gold single. A year and a half after its release. Hey, better late than never! I'll take it, LOL.
Did they say that there would be no instruments? Because I don't know how excited I would be to go back to that.
Quite frankly I might die of shock if they ever said something nice about Kris.
I don't want Glee on American Idol, if that makes sense.
Who?
I don't see how with Steven Tyler and J.Lo on the panel it's not going to be all about the judges once again. I'm sure both of them have healthy-sized egos that will need to be stroked once in a while.
and Hedley's on that page too. :icon_smile:
except the Hedley comments always annoy me -- lol. :roll:
ETA: Tim releasing his album in Nov might actually be a great strategy for him, because he'll be piggy backing on the publicity that Lee will get for releasing in Nov. Mainly in the Idol fan market, but that might be larger than he would get normally.
I personally don't know what Allison wanted to become. I don't think her image and style have changed much since she left Idol. It's not like Jive forced her to become a Selena Gomez clone.Do you know how hard I tried to become what you want me to be...Jive
You guys both love Glee? I absolutely detest Glee. Detest!! Since you hardly ever mention it any more, I was kind of hoping you decided you didn't like it any more. lol
I hate the Kelly-Carrie comment. I can never understand what they think they gain by undermining their own Idols.
Did the guy from the Script mean that LLWD has sold two million, or Breakeven?
If she wants everything her own way, why did she ever go this route? Unfortunately there has to be compromise.
Hedley was no longer on that page when looked at it. What are the Hedley comments that annoy you, usually?

Selling their own Idols just makes sense. It sells the show. Every time an Idol winner has a hit song, or succeeds in some way, it sells the show. Isn't it obvious that you would want to boost them any way you could?
The Dutch TV program "Popstars" made a video of contestants singing WWFM at the audition. Those people should not try to be popstars .
