5.0 out of 5 stars Great musician and singer!
He is a truly gifted singer. I can't wait to hear more from him, a CD will be nice!

1.0 out of 5 stars Eh...
I like the song, truthfully. But I only like the way Adam sings it. Kris' voice just sounds too mediocre in this one. I mean, this song is flat out, pass-me-the-paddles-nurse-cuz-I'm-not-feeling-a-pulse kind of dead. No if's, and's, or but's about it. I love his version of Ain't No Sunshine, and I like Live Like We're Dying (I believe that's the correct title). So I...

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Vocals, May 23, 2009
This review is from: No Boundaries (MP3 Download)
Kris wasn't my first choice to win the competition, but he did come the farthest.

This song wouldn't have been my choice as the winner's single, but of both versions, I did prefer Kris'. Adam's was good, but when he performed it live, I could not understand one word. This song fit's Kris Allen's voice much better.

Listen to both versions if you are going to only choose one. You may like Adam's version better.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic, October 6, 2009
This review is from: No Boundaries (MP3 Download)
I love Kris version of the song because you feel the passion and I can believe that he means what he singing. He is a very humble young man and I pray he will go far. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Sorry Kris rocks this! There are no boundaries!!!! I love it!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Good singer, tough song, September 16, 2009

Kris Allen is a good singer and arguably the best one to ever win American Idol. This song however gives me pause. It's full of off tempo beats combined with soaring ranges. Kris does as good with it as anyone could with his level of training and experience. This is a difficult song for Kris' vocal range. I think when his first album comes out in November with songs that HE has chosen to sing, we will all be in for a treat!

5.0 out of 5 stars Kris Allen No Boundaries, September 1, 2009
This review is from: No Boundaries (MP3 Download)
Kris Allen is one of the most talented singers to emerge from American Idol. His ability to take an old song and modernize is amazing. He can also take a bad song and make it work. This is what he did with the song No Boundaries. Kris made me love this song. Kara DiGuardio should be kissing Kris' toes.

Kris ROCKS!

1.0 out of 5 stars A Bad Song Forced on a Nice Guy with Average Talent, June 20, 2009
By 
This review is from: No Boundaries (MP3 Download)
This song is ridiculous. Poorly written, musically idiotic sounds just like the other never freaking ending mountain song by Miley Cirus (sp?).....Nobody can (or would want to) sing it. Especially Kris Allen who has a sub average range. Watch the AI "judges" all making excuses for him even the writer Kara said right off the bat oh yeah it wasnt your key. Oh really? But nothing was said to Adam about the stupid range in that song because he can DO IT. Then they back pedaled saying "it fit Kris's voice better than Adam's. WTH?

Don't waste your money. AI not withstanding, the songs a waste. And DON'T REWARD mediocrity. Just because AI "NEEDS" a song they shouldn't get a pass on crappiness. Poor Kris saddled with this everywhere he performs LOL.

Wonder how he'd do with Ring of Fire, Black or White, and...oh yeah...that's right we already saw him doing Queen. <eyeroll>

i wanted kris to win from the start he has the voice that would sell a million and one records and still keep going. i love the song! sooo much better than adam's, i love adam great guy and all but the screaming is a little annoying after a while! the song although most disagree is brilliant and is the right sound and style for kris- cannot wait for an album the u.k fans are hot for kris - bring it on!

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome!, May 24, 2009
This review is from: No Boundaries (MP3 Download)
Kris' version of this song is the better of the two. He wasn't my first choice for idol but he's certainly more of an ARTIST than Adam. Don't get me wrong Adam is talented but as far as a career as a recording artist...the right person won. This also wasn't my favorite of the "Inspirational Idol" singles but after a while this song really grows on you....Over all a good song by a great up-and-coming artist. Think it's funny that, even after all the press about what a shock it was and that Adam would sell more records(at least on itunes) single sales reflect the votes...Kris' version has been in the top 2 since it was released and Adam's wasn't listed on the top 100...

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing singer, so-so song, June 20, 2009
This review is from: No Boundaries (MP3 Download)
Going up against someone who has been a professional since a very young age and WINNING is a great accomplishment! Adam is talented, he should be with the years of experience he has had. Kris is more talented and I'm glad he won. This particular song is not so great but can't wait to hear what he'll come out with next.
