Give it a listen,
By glitterball (England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Kris Allen (Audio CD)
On the first listen I agree that there does not seem to be any stand out tracks however I persevered and found it to be a grower.My favourite tracks are The Truth, Bring it back and a rather brilliant version of Kanye wests song Heartless. Two of the songs are written by The Script (Live like we're dying and written all over my face) so if you like them you will most likely enjoy this album too

Surprisingly delightful,
By Firedire (London) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Kris Allen (Audio CD)
This cute Allen guy is only 24, married and has little fanfare - I'd expected formulaic pop songs filling up his debut album with maybe one or two hit singles.I was really surprised when I listened to the stream of the songs, they are more cool Indie pop-rock, which were exactly in my musical zone. Beautiful melodies, brilliant lyrics, emotional delivery, little nuances in his vocal, understated instrumentations - all spell QUALITY. Love the raw ballads 'I Need To Know' (Toby Gad, Kris Allen & Lindy Robins) and 'Bring It Back' (Co written by Allen and Francis Eg White) the best. But the indie vibe in Red Guitar (solely written by Allen) is simply brilliant, giving us a glimpse of his potential in song writing. Before We Become Undone and The Truth give us snippets of Allen's gorgeous low register. The playful Alright With Me, Can't Stay Away, & Written all Over My Face will definitely appeal to college going guys, they are that cool. Vocal wise, Allen adapts it differently injecting different nuances for different moods of the songs, excellent delivery. A CD which does not need the Forward button. I'm impressed.

This review is from: Kris Allen (Audio CD)
This is actually the first time I've ever bought an album from an American Idol winner. You cannot say it is an exceptional work but is a quite good pop album, fresh and entertaining. It is worth listening to and way better than some of the other winners from this massive singing contest.
