Kris Allen Debuts New Single, “Live Like We’re Dying” - American Idol 8
American Idol 8 winner Kris Allen took little time releasing a new single, but he should have waited longer, in my view.
His newest single, “Live Like We’re Dying” is nothing new; in fact, it’s reconstituted from another band, if you really wanna know.
Kris Allen - “Live Like We’re Dying”
After listening to the song, which sounds like a Blake Lewis joint, by the way, I get the impression this song is gonna fade away.
The chorus is catchy, but the lyrics are too fast, as though Allen were trying to rap his way out of a paper bag.
Also, I think people will find the song a tad too poppy. Some pop is good, but this song take the bubble gum quotient and stretches it out forever. At least that’s what it sounded like to me.
So Allen’s first joint? Not too impressive if you ask me. There have been other Idols who still did alright after their first single tanked, however.
