Just heard from one of our posters Jstar, that Kris Allen is singing Glen Hansard’s “Falling Slowly” from the movie Once

 

Thank you Jstar!  :)

    SPOILERS

    Good choice, Kris. Once is a fantastic movie. Stripped down, just like I hoped!

    That is a PERFECT song choice for Kris. Perfect.
    He will be terrific with that one.

    I am so excited now! Kris is my favorite and the songs from Once are some of the best ever. This could be amazing!!

    Never heard that song or saw the movie.

    I need me some Adam spoilers! :D
    Or even Anoop or Matt spoilers would be good! :)

    I personally never found the movie, as a whole, remotely as good as all the hype around it. I mean, I liked it, but i’d never have any inclination to actually sit and watch it ever again.
    That being said, the song itself is beautiful, and if this turns out to be a true spoiler, an amazing song choice for Kris. Especially if he keeps it completely stripped down, just him on acoustic guitar or piano, someone else on whichever he doesn’t play, plus maybe a string or two at most. It could easily cement him well ahead of everyone else but Adam (who, even as a gay man, i still don’t comprehend the attraction)

    FABULOUS Kris! I loved this movie and the music. Such a moving song. Kris will get a great boost on this one.

    Chalk one up for Buddy TV predictions. Wonder how many others they get right…

    I like this song and I am sure Puppies and Rainbows will make it all lovely and dreamy (which is it anyway so not far to go there). Will be hard to strip down as it is about a stripped down as you can get already. But that said he always does well when he keeps it all soft and sweet and melty. Which is fine song by song, but a whole album of that stuff would rock me right off to sleep.

    I hope Anoop is singing a Boyz II Men song:)

    Good choice for Kris.

  11. suebrody says:

    Does this mean Kris went first? I assume so. Hm.

  12. suebrody says:

    I have decided that Adam needs to sing Under the Bridge by Red Hot Chili Peppers.

    Too late to suggest that? ;)

  13. Terpetrator says:

    This song was written as a duet. I think it could be rather monotonous and unemotional as a solo performance.

    I’m so excited!!! He’s a friend of ours in Arkansas and we just heard. He knows what works for him, and I think this is really a great choice to get him back on the american idol front runners train.

    JUST A RUMOR!!!!

    Another site has posted that Adam will be singing “When Doves Cry.” If that’s true, it will be INSANELY awesome! But again….just a rumor!

    GO ADAM!!!!

    I heard ADAM is singing “When Doves Cry”???

    If so, that will be interesting.
