No Boundaries

This is the American Idol Season 8 coronation song. This song was cowritten by Kara Dioguardi, on of the judges of the show. This is a nice song and it really fits Kris Allen's style. For me, Kris Allen's version is better that Adam Lambert's.

No Boundaries - Kris Allen

No Boundaries
Kris Allen

Seconds hours so many days
You know what you want but how long can you wait
Every moment last forever if you feel you’ve lost your way
What if your chances are already gone
Started believing that I could be wrong
But you give me one good reason
to fight and never walk away

Coz here I am - still holding on!

Every step you climb another mountain
Every breathe its harder to believe

You’ll make it through the pain (or through all your aches and pains)
Weather the hurricane
To get to that one thing

When you think the road is going nowhere
Just when you’ve almost gave up on your dreams
Then take it by the hand and show you that you can
There are no boundaries x2

I fought to the end to stand on the edge
What if today is as good it gets
Don’t know where the future’s headed
Nothings gonna bring me down

I’ve jumped every bridge and I’ve run every line
I’ve risked being saved but I always knew why
I always knew why

So here I am still holding on
Every step you climb another mountain
Every breathe its harder to believe

You’ll make it through the pain
Weather the hurricane
To get to that one thing

When you think the road is going nowhere
Just when you’ve almost gave up on your dreams
Then take it by the hand and show you that you can

You can go higher
You can go deeper
There are no boundaries
Above and beneath you
Break every rule coz there’s nothing between you
and your dreams

Every step you climb another mountain
Every breathe its harder to believe
Yeah…

There are no boundaries
Every step you climb another mountain
Every breathe its harder to believe
You’ll make it through the pain
Weather the hurricane
There are no boundaries x3

Kris Allen - American Idol Season 8 Winner

America finally decided. 100 million votes have been casted. *Dim the lights..* And the American Idol 2009 winner is... KRIS ALLEN!

Yay!! I wasn't really expecting that Kris Allen would win. Adam Lambert was the expected winner as we all know that he's the front runner and the best singer in this season. It was really a shocker. Nevertheless, Kris Allen truly deserves the title. For me, he is the only contestant who really grown up and improved every week. I believe it's not only because of his guy-next-door image taht made him the winner. His artistry, his attitude and his passion for music were the reasons why most Americans favored Kris Allen.

Now here comes the big question. Did America get it right?

Well, it's up to you. If you're an Adam Lambert fan, you would say no, but if you're a Kris Allen fan, you'd probably say yes. Right? IMO, both deserve to win. They're great artists and they're both stars. It just happened that votels will determine the winner.

Heartless - Kris Allen

This was Kris Allen's personal pick for the final three performance night. Very smart song choice. Great version! As Randy Jackson said, this is way better than Kanye West's and The Fray's version. I have to agree with this. This song is one of my favorite idol performance ever. And I believe that this song also made Kris Allen to land in the finals.

Kris Allens Heartless Studio Version.mp3 -

Heartless
Kris Allen

In the night, I hear 'em talk,
The coldest story ever told.
Somewhere far along this road, she lost her soul.
To a man so heartless..
How could you be so heartless? oh.. how could you be so heartless.

[Verse 1]
How could you be so, cold as the winter wind when it breeze yo.
Just remember that you talkin' to me though.
You know need to watch the way you talkin' to me yo. I mean after all the things that we've been through.
I mean after all the things we got into.
Hey yo, I know of some things that you aint told me.
Hey yo, I did some things but that's the old me.
And now you wanna get me back and you goin' show me.
So you walk around like you don't know me.
You got a new friend, well I got homies.
But in the end it's still so lonely.

[Chorus]
In the night, I hear 'em talk,
The coldest story ever told.
Somewhere far along this road, she lost her soul.
To a man so heartless..
How could you be so heartless? oh.. how could you be so heartless.

[Verse 2]
How could be so Dr. Evil, you bringin' out the side of me that I dont know..
I decided we weren't goin' speak so.
Why we up 3 A.M. on the phone.
Why does he be so mad at me fo'.
Homie I don't know, he's hot and cold.
I wont stop, I wont mess my groove up
Cause I already know how this thing go.
YOU RUN AND TELL YOUR FRIENDS THAT YOU LEAVING ME
They say that they don't see what you see in me.
You wait a couple months then you gon' see.
You'll never find nobody better than me.

[Chorus]
In the night, I hear 'em talk,
The coldest story ever told.
Somewhere far along this road, she lost her soul.
To a man so heartless..
How could you be so heartless? oh.. how could you be so heartless.

[Verse 3]
Talkin', talkin', talkin', talk
Baby lets just knock it off
They don't know what we been through
They don't know 'bout me and you
So I got something new to see
And you just gon' keep hatin' me
And we just gon' be enemies
I know you cant believe
I could just leave it wrong
And you cant make it right
Im gon' take off tonight
Into the night..

[Chorus]
In the night, I hear 'em talk,
The coldest story ever told.
Somewhere far along this road, she lost her soul.
To a man so heartless..
How could you be so heartless? oh.. how could you be so heartless.

American Idol Season 9 Finale: Kris vs Adam

This was the most unexpected finale in the idol history. Most of the judges expected a Danny vs Adam finale since these two guys are the best singers in the season, and the judges have been consistently putting the spotlight on them. I can still remember the first performance night of the 13 finalists and Paula made a prediction that Adam Lambert and Danny Gokey will make it through the finals. Simon Cowell's been praising Adam Lambert everytime and it's very obvious that they're rooting Adam for the title.

It was really a shocker when Kris Allen was the first one to be announced as the contender for the finale, and sending Danny Gokey home. It's a no brainer that Adam Lambert would be in the finals. In my opinion, Kris is more deserving than Danny Gokey for the finals. But we can't take the fact that Danny is a better singer and he's the only finalist who can outsing Adam Lambert. But Kris Allen is the true artist in this season. He sounds good and his songs are great. Look what Kris made to the song Heartless. That was a very good rendition of the song originally done by Kanye West.

Well, so much for the introduction. And I know it's kinda late to post this, but for my blog's sake, I'm still gonna post what happened in the Finale performance night. :D

Round 1 - Personal Pick

Adam Lambert - Mad World
He received a standing ovation from Simon Cowell when he performed this song on one of the idol performance night. Nice pick.

Kris Allen - Ain't No Sunshine
Great song choice. I personally like his rendition of this song. It seems he won Round 1.

Round 2 - Producer's Pick

Adam Lambert - A Change's Gonna Come
There goes the screaming once again. But Adam Lambert is really a good singer.

Kris Allen - What's Going On
Kris with his guitar. Nice song.

Round 3 - Coronation Song

Adam Lambert - No Boundaries
I think this song is not for him. But he was able to sing it properly.

Kris Allen - No Boundaries
This song really fits his timbre but the song is too high for him. The studio recording was very great though. He is indeed a winner!
