  • Amazing.

  • LOVE this so so much.

  • Kris has a grate voice it beats adam lucky adam got more popular even though kris won wasn't as recognized.After Idol.

  • studio sounds way better than the live version

  • You Rock : )

  • I know! i loved slow ride too, and i LOVE Adam lambert (should have won, totally, but he turned out more successful soo..yay!) but their harmonies here were SO good. they kicked Styx's ass. I love this version :)

  • i love this version. they sound so good together

  • The only thing this version didn't have was the scream in the beginning. But this version is better.

  • Im Sorry Styx...But Danny And Kris Made You Look Like A Nobody

    -I Love Styx Tho

  • Love it!!

  • danny>kris

  • I love this! Danny has always been my favorite idol! Kris not so much...

  • This sucks. Gah. I'm sorely disappointed. Not just because it's a cover, I'm not a tool. This version is just... Bleh. Styx's original blows this out of the water.

  • not gonna lie me fave 2 throught the season where these two and this is like gravy on epicness

  • As much as I love Styx ... I think is is better

  • Holy chit, they rocked OUT on this song!!!  :o)

  • They did the Styx justice just by nailing the beginning.

  • i don't like styx version cause its to slow. i like fast. GO KRIS ALLEN!!!!

  • do you ever been thought if @dannygokey sings "Heartless"? which one better? :p

  • @silverpotatoes Not really. Nothing compares to the original. I mean this is good, but not as good as the original. But, I give them Kudos for covering it.

  • styx is weeel better :) this is still preety good tho

  • I knew Kris Allen would win

    I knew lee dewyze would win too

    But this year I picked michael lynch and how he did free willy

  • Both very attractive and talented men... great job of this song!!

  • Great and powerfull cover. But in the picture the guys look super gay.

  • omg I LOVE IT!

    they're voices are amazing apart but together is beautiful harmony its...well...beautiful lol

    <33

  • love this type of music.. posted on the munroe series wp... typing blogging tunes for writers :)

  • I remember Adam and Allison had more chemistry in the live performance on stage than kris and Danny, but this studio version sounds a lot better.

  • I love danny gokey and this song too! my dad loves this too he grew up in the 80s and this is one of his favorite songs!

  • they both look sooooo cute in those pictures!!! *faints*

  • all i can say is they two are brilliant artists!!!

  • They are both my favorites in season 8. Great song from great singers :D

  • danny should have won, i picked him in hollywood and for this year i picked casey james in hollywood too... haha every year i pick the number 3

  • 0:19-0:34 freakin beautiful harmony! <3

  • This was great BUT not better than slow ride with allison and adam

  • now this is music!

  • They sound so great together!!! I kinda like this better than adam and allison's version of slow ride...however, if i even recall the live performances correctly, adam and allison did better on the live performance but i like kris and danny's studio version wayyy more than adam and allison's!

  • they are good.

  • @silverpotatoes Agreed. There really are quite a few singers who completely pwn the original version of the song they sing. Blake Lewis' rendition of You Give Love A Bad Name is really good. Those sorts of moments make AI worth watching.

  • This song totally whooped styx's version! They sound perfect together!!!! <3 <3 <3

  • Great Styx song done by great singers! Thumbs up!!!!!!!!!!

  • @amazinggarrett1 shank said who are the singers in the background XD

  • i ment in de song

  • hu r de other 2 singrz in de bkgrnd?

  • I would answer you, but I don't know what you're trying to ask. Try typing in the English language please.

  • @amazinggarrett1

    I think Shank said... "Hey, are there two other singers in the backround?" Well, at least that my guess.

  • I believe it was"Who are the other singers in the background" But I could be wrong

  • @HirokiKamijou1 u r correct, thats what i asked

  • Who are the...

  • yes i sprekin de english...i just choose not to type correctly

  • shank do you speak english?

  • I. Love. Them. <3

  • ok for some reason i was not expecting to like this,

    but wow, they sound awesome. Kris sounds really different.

    love it love it.

  • Sounds 10X better than the original.

  • I am obsessed with this song!

  • wow! this is great! Danny and Chris sound soooo good together! =) love them.

  • @brittanylove909 i agree but its Kris with a K ;)

  • @mle4realz i know.. lol. i was in a hurrt. haha. :(

  • They are my two favorites, and when they did this, my life was like complete :) I LOVE DANNY AND KRIS! And if Danny couldn't win, I wanted Kris too, and he did! YAY KRIS!

    They totally should do a song together for each other CD's :)

  • I have this on my ipod. THATS HOW MUCH THIS KICKS ASS. Kudos to Styx for introducing such a nice song.

  • Tbh I think they sound better than the original singer

  • okay this sounded wayyyyy better than slow ride by adam and alison... they just sounded so good together

  • @SRPerkins16 The studio does sound a whole lot better but they performed it really badly, Imagine if Adam and Alison had this song instead...

  • @SRPerkins16 You must be kidding. Adam and Alison was way better, maybe because they had fun. Kris and Danny seemed to hate each other during that performance, no conection at all

  • Amazing!!!!

  • I think they both did an excellent job and actually sound quite good together... i enjoy the 'harmony'.

    Too bad they weren't 'feeling it' the night they did it live. Admirable turn around though.

  • Well. The winner is danny gokey.

  • I like Kris's voice better than Danny's, but I thought Danny was better. I've been voting for him since the day he auditioned. I hadn't even noticed Kris till like top 10 or something. But I love both of them! <3

  • danny did better then kris

  • Ooooooh, this is really really really good.

  • Person 1: What's your religion?

    Person 2: Oh, I'm KrisDan.

  • i can`t say who`s better their both great in this song

  • LOVE KRIS ALLEN AND DANNY GOKEY

  • BREAKING NEWS: This just in!!! Obama wins the Heisman Trophy after watching a college football game!!!

  • That's funny.

  • brilliant!!

  • An Oldie but a REAL GOODIE, due to an a really good collaboration on your parts -, Rock on  KrisDan !

  • Great job Danny and Kris - Love to hear that H A R M O N Y you guys got going on !

  • amazing duet....both of them shouldve been in the finals but i think danny shouldve won

  • I can't decide which duet I like better.

    hm..

    they're both awesome in their own way!

    don't compare them guys, they're both totally different in style and genre.

  • I love Kris Allen ... they didnt do a good job... Kris did so good with Keith Urban ... Amazing duet

  • do you think kris won because he was straight ?

  • no i dont think so.... maybe i hope not... cuz Adam was amazing... and if people didnt want him to stay because of his sexualality they would not vote for him to stay .. am i right

  • in my opinion the reason kris won is because danny was a similar artist to kris so when danny got voted off, all of his votes went to kris. kris has great talent, not saying he didnt deserve to win but i think thats what made him get more votes.

  • i wanted either danny or adam to win but kris is good too i hope all 3 of them get record deals

  • yeahh i think all three of them already have and are working on albums. just what ive heard, could be rumours but i have no reason to believe why they wouldhnt

  • dannys album is coming out in january!!!!!! im like so excited and for adam and kris and i love allison if a girl deserved to win it was her! she is good and check out my vid of her single!! lol but all 4 of them are great

  • i dont think so either and people dont spam dealerovski82 because he is only asking a question and i think kris won because everyone was probably like adams gonna win so its ok if we dont vote thats what i think so and be cause i think danny fans went to kris because danny was like adams rival in the competition thats my opinion so i THINK! thats why

  • i like this song...its one of my fav for kris

  • i love love love the first 35 seconds of this song...and then that's about it.

  • i totally agree

  • personaly i think Danny and Kris did way better then Allison and Adam did in the duet part! Even the Studio Recording Kris and Danny's was way better!

  • stux? And there are very few people better than Styx, but this one is pretty good.

  • would have been better with danny & ADAM

  • i love this so mucchhhh!!! i have it on cd:D woo! :)

  • that last message was to americanidolz2010HD btw.

  • i LOVE THIS SONG! and their harmony is AMAZING! oh and for the record the only thing i could think of while adam was singing ring of fire was 1. a stocker in my room and 2. demons.

  • U guys really need to tell me the name of your company that u get .99 per comment from. I could be making a fortune here, no?

  • Comment removed

  • And for the record, I really don't hugely DISLIKE Danny. I'm just not particularly a fan. And I do think that this live performance really showed that he is quite socially inept in a lot of ways. I don't think it was INTENTIONAL, but I just think he never even realized that Kris was trying to engage with him (which is what a duet is meant to be), because he was so in his own world. He just needs to how to better pick up social ques from those around him. Because it DID make him look like an arse

  • 4 the record, the only person looking like an arse here, mick, is someone taking a 3 minute event and turning it into so much more than it is, and to what end? Tell U what, let me get some cameras to follow you around 24/7 for the next month, and then let me write up my subjective comments on how I interpret your social skills based on what i see. From what i see Danny is an exceptionally loving and social human being. U better pray like heck that every moment captures u having a nice day ~

  • Everyone, i think they both did an amazing job on this, kris amazing, danny amazing, so shut up already. And this does have something to with adam because if he saw some people dissin on his friends what would he think? Yeah, he would think we are all a bunch of assholes so pleas no hate comments!!!

  • Comment removed

  • Had to drive 500+ miles today, and let the Danny Gokey studio versions of songs play over and over. I really had to say that once Danny and Kris had more time to work things out, and Danny was feeling a little bit better, that they really did an exceptional job on this song. The harmony was very good, and each stood out in their own way to make this a truly enjoyable experience. Too bad that it was an off night during the show, and a lot of Lambert fans are using that to hype their project

  • rotf danny was a jerk..... watch the live version or this, he completely ignores kris

  • i think wut it was was that all the guys wanted to do the duet with allison(cuz its better if u do a duet with a girl). and maybe kris and danny didnt feel comfortable doing the duet together so it might have felt ackward for them. and also, danny or kris did say that they had a hard time picking out a song that would "fit" them both. so danny just let kris pick the song and said w/e he picked was fine. thats wut it was. btw, i have nothing against kris, i like kris too, but danny more.

  • GO KRIS

  • kick ass solo

  • How can u feel more bad for Kris than Danny? Everything went Kris' way. He wasn't overpimped by producers so the public didn't tire of him. Adam and Danny suffered from a ridiculous backlash over sexual orientation and a tragic death respectively. Kris suffered from nothing. I feel for Adam b/c the top prize was wrongfully stolen from him b/c he's gay and I feel bad for Danny b/c ppl are mean to him for no good reason.  And ppl really didn't vote for Adam b/c he's gay and they are stupid.

  • I was COMPLETELY pulling for Adam to win simply because I feel he deserved it (I do adore Kris though too), but to say he didn't win because of his sexuality is just silly- even Adam himself thinks so :) He was runner up! If it was really a prejudice thing, he never would have gotten that far.

    Nope, Kris just happens to have a style that appeals to a wider audience, that's all. Not a bad thing! Adam is still going to be a huge rock star, and this way Kris got the recognition he deserved too :)

  • The thing is, what MAKES Adam so amazing and what gives him the potential to be truly groundbreaking is precisely WHY he didn't win. Because he's polarizing, he's non-conventional- he's someone we haven't really seen before. Pretty much ALL great legends start out with some people who hate them too- because if art is truly new, not everyone's going to get it right away.

  • Kris is fantastic at what he does and super talented and I love him, but let's be real here. He's not GROUNDBREAKING. His style is awesome and most people love it- because we KNOW it. Because it's exactly what's popular right now. Adam's style is much newer- less conventional. So naturally not as many people are going to take to it right away. But 50 years down the road or whatever? If he plays his cards right, he really DOES have the potential to do something truly memorable! :)

  • Again though, I LOVE Kris. I think he's so talented and so good at what he does, and he has the best taste in music <3 And I think he's going to be VERY successful in today's music industry- at least I hope so! But I just think that Adam has the potential to be more groundbreaking because he is so unique and fearless as a performer. But I was just INCREDIBLY happy that Kris won over Adam instead of Danny! haha. Not a Danny fan. Nice voice, but no charisma or artistry imo

  • Just keep saying it over and over and over stephlem89, Hitler proved that that tactic works for some. I know the people who have invested great sums of money in lambert have a big stake in the return on their investment. However, some of us who happen to like Danny are feeling just a little bit nauseated by being force fed the party line on lambert. Can you take this to a lambert vid instead? PS how come Rolling Stone attempted to assassinate Danny by saying HE was the polarizing one?

  • I <3 Kris's opening vocals. I think he totally deserved to win. Adam might have stronger vocals, but Kris is a true musician. He might sound more generic now, but I think with time he could grow to be a better, more unique musician in his own right if Brand New Shoes is any hint of what the future has in store for his fans. I didn't get into Idol until Post-Season, but both Adam and Kris would have gotten votes from me.

  • There are a lot of true musicians out there. There are also tons of great vocalists. What sets Adam apart from the rest is his vocal chops (extraordinary vocal range) and his stage presence and charisma whihc he exudes. I am by no means a liberal, I do not like their politics i.e., * universal healthcare* and pacificism and crap like that. BUT I HAD EARS AND EYES AND I VOTED FOR THE ONE WHO DELIVERED THE BEST PERFORMANCES THE WHOLE SEASON LONG INCLUDING THE FINALE-ADAM.

  • I agree with you A HUNDRED percent! :)

  • Kris' vocals during the start of this song are just amazing. He is just so talented. The live version of the song was a train wreck, mainly because of Mr. Gokey, but the studio version is just amazing.

  • Also I found it dumb that simon decided to judge on "who sang better" and gave Kris a rough time. Simon basicy was edging Danny on to act like more of a fool.

    The order or the people that sang... Kris sang Renegade then at commercial he changed costume and had to immediately sing again. (Come Together). That was unfair also... Of course Adam is always going to sing last which brings him in more votes. Sad 2 c him lose =(. Anyways theres no way Danny could have sang two songs in a row like dat

  • thats fuckin retarded none of them would have gotten that far if they couldnt

  • That's funny,...Because Adam sang "Whole Lotta Love" to open the show.

  • did you watch the whole episode of not?!?!?!? of course he sang first, the producer's wanted it to seem like they were not trying to help adam win, but then again that didn't matter becuze he also sang last "slow ride" and that was the highlight of the night so...

    there you go

  • So..He sang first, It's a producers conspiracy to get him votes?

    He sang last, It's a producers conspiracy to get him votes?

    That is your theory?

  • No, it's not my theory, but I beleive what has been said... go to iTunes and download the Krisallenation podcast and listen to the episodes you'll learn a whole lot. (and they don't only like kris, they like adam too)

  • U don't think ragging Danny and making crap up is wrong. It is. Who is to say how seriously any of them took the competition. You aren't in their minds. I can guarantee you Danny was a lot less serious than Kris and Adam. Danny experienced real loss and tragedy and a nationally televised singing contest takes a huge backseat to that. Danny had to endure tons of crap from the media cough cough Michael Slezak and co cough. (Adam should have own based on talent.)

  • Sound like you dislike Danny and prefer Kris above all. First of all, you are making things up about Danny which is ridiculous. And Kris won, he has good lucks and seems grounded. I wish him luck and I don't think he needs to be pitied. Truth is down the road, ppl just remember the winner usually. IT should have been Adam but stupid ppl like u picked Kris so now the rest of us have to live with that dumb DUMB decision.

  • ARE U FUCKING TALKING TO ME?!?!? WTF I WOULDA VOTED 4 ADAM IF I LIVED IN US! I absoluely hate danny yes.... he should have been gone after dream on and ppl gave him pity votes... the reason i hate him is bcuze allison should have stayed and he acted like a jerk in renegade...

  • LOl.. u created a new name and account just to come on this vid and act like a jerk americanidolz2010HD? Or R U just another pimp for Adam, coming on Danny vids to get even for your hero's loss? If a bad night should do an idol in... lambert should have been gone on Ring of Fire, not to mention about 3 other shows, one of which landed him in the bottom 3, Causing the producers to make the next week Rock week. How transparent of them, and YOU ~

  • you dumb ass, this vid is for Kris also, and clearly more people liked kris then danny... you think danny won..rotf. kris won and HE beat adam, the only contestant worthy of it. I just think that danny shoul have been nicer to kris, as kris was trying to be nice to him. so this has nothing to do with adam you dumbfuck. and great you hated ring of fire, a lot of people liked it. i guess your more of a country type of guy then. personally i like classic and hard rock.

  • My Dear 2010HD, my my my, what an interesting comment. Let's ask Kris and Danny to give us their take on the situation that night, instead of your party line (ie. manipulative, slanderous, limited, point of view. )OK?

    Actually country music was always my least favorite music. I would suggest you get control of yourself, and find something actually intelligent to say, so you don't have to make yourself looks so ridiculous, by substituting for that, with a potty mouth.

  • well if you didnt like adams ring of fire, it was probably because he changed it to a rockish kind of song on country week, which leads me to beleive your a country guy and thats okay with me. alright let me know when you get a hold of any of those idol contestants and please dont make me wait and stop making yourself look like a fool by saying that i dont know what im talking about when half of your stuff dosnt make sence and the other half is not even worth saying

  • LOl.. Tokiohotel, I mean, ellelesrose, i mean, Keshira, i mean 2010, Don't blame me if what i say does not make sense to YOU? I wouldn't expect you to understand an article on Nuclear Physics or Black Holes either. Adam didn't do country week the way it should have been done as he wouldh't have been very good at it. Even the stupid get up he has coming out of the hole in the stage on tour, doesn't seem 'real' for him. As for my musical taste, you sure do assume a lot. u know what they say ~

  • Adam did what was PERFECT for him to do on country week. Country isn't his thing, he knew that, WE all knew that, so he took a country song and made it his own! That's not a bad thing, that's artistry :) The point of American Idol is not to be able to do every style of music ever- it's meant for people to show who THEY are as artists. That was exactly what Adam did- he used the platform to establish who HE is as an artist. He's not a country artist, so why should he have done it country?

  • Take that up with all of ur PR people and pundits that shout out the party line that Adam can DO and SING ANYTHING !! Can he or can't he? If you are the authority on this issue than let's take your statement here, and make it the official one. BTW.. he is not a rock artist either, to anyone who really lived through the days when Rock materialized.

  • i know what they say and that fact is kris outbeat danny and so did adam so process that thru ur tiny brian. also i do think that adam and allison should have been split up on this week because they were the rockers, but this was just how the contestants picked amoung themselves, and if you think i like kris, well i dont really, i am adam fan... im ok with kris beating him though, cuze he'll have better future with either outcome.

  • Oh....Duhhhhhhhhhhh.....  lol

  • PS??\ who is 'they' pray tell?

  • so wut? kris and danny have two diff voices, but they are both good.adam is just ok to me. i think that them both making it as far as they did is pretty cool. danny has a powerful voice, he is really talented, i know he will do just fine! if he werent talented, he wouldnt have made it this far(the top 3 ) now would he?

  • BTW. i think Kris Allen did an amazing job on this song. I wouldn't mind listening to a whole CD of him and Danny singing together. I only spoke of Danny, because you were only targeting Danny with your nasty comments. Get a clue, Dear.

  • this is my opinion n pleeeeeeeeeease don`t hate me 4 it! :)

    adam n allison`s slow ride duet wuz much better. but don`t get me wrong htis wuz great! adam n allison have better voices n r a little more talented. it`s just my opinion though! u don`t have 2 listen 2 it! i just don`t want any1 2 hate me...danny n kris r good! i just like adam n allison a little better. :)

  • This was a much better duet than Adam and Allison in my opinion. I think Danny and Kris's voices compliment each other better than Adam's and Allison's do.

    This version is much better than the live version! Danny was a bit too loud and Kris was pitchy, but this version is amazing.

  • The studio is much better than the live verison was. In the live verison Danny was trying to scream over Kris. He knew Kris was better than him and he was trying to out shine him. I love this verison because their voices actually work well together. But I am glad to see them not use this in the tour!!

  • Krrrriiiiiiiiiiiiiiissssssssss­sssssssssssss<3333333333333333­3333333333333

    i also love adam ( more than anyone )

    Huuugggeee Kraddaaaammm faaan ! <333.

    Gokeys.. alright.

  • Danny has a really awesome voice. The power and soul of it goes well with how smooth Kris' voice is.

  • Personally, Danny is all that, he shoulda won. He was the best person on American Idol. Go Danny!

  • i thought danny wuz pretty good....n kris wuz 2. but i thought adam n allison should have been in the finale. allison is my favorite. i actually have a.i.o.d. (allison iraheta obsessive disese)lol bu tplease don`t hate me 4 saying all this....i just like allison n adam a little better...but i think danny is awsome! :)

  • it was pretty good i like it :)

  • it does not ur an american idol h8r

  • i am not i LOVE american idol but i love GOOD music not this stuff it is ok but i love adam and don't like danny god just because someone does not like one person on american idol does not make them a hater you are such a loser

  • shut the hell up

  • fuck off and leave me alone i said it was good

  • This was actully pretty good I didn't think it sounded that good at first but I was wrong even though I thoough the pther duet was better and that it should've been Adam and Alison in the finale but Kris is good to I guess

  • totally agree. Adam and Allison should have been 1 and 2. Though Danny or Kris were just as reasonable num. 2's. The only things that were certain was the top 4 were very talented and that Adam was heads and shoulders above the rest of them.

  • yea. totally agree with u laziness4, adam n allison should have been # 1 n 2. but i thought allison is equally talented as adam, she just can`t hit those high notes like him.lol

  • This is actually pretty good.. Their voices sound great together.

  • i agree with you

  • They did a great job on this song! I've loved Kris from the start, but I've grown to love Danny too.

  • I LOVE this song, and I love their version. Danny's voice <3 its heavenly.

  • totally i love him literall he's my uncle

  • awesome vid, i love dannys voice, kris is cute, but ♥ dannys voice

  • This wasnt my fav of the two duet things but it was still freaking amazing I wanted Adam to win and have Danny as runner up but hey, Kris is amazing and he deserved it too

  • danny shouldve won

  • i know! he was my favorite from the start!

    i really wanted it to be a kris/danny finale.

    and i wouldve been with the winner no matter what then, because i can NOT stand adam.

  • I wanted Adam to win by far! But i thought kris was okay. If adam couldn't win i wanted danny to. Allison was my favorite girl!!!!!!

  • same here. i was really disappointed. they made a huge mistake.

    but anyway, Adam's HUGE now... he's more famous than any other contestants. i think next to that fame is Danny.

    [dont hate on me, it's only my opinion]

    and Allison will be huge too.

    i dont think about kris.

    his music is very common and usual.

    anyway. ehehe

  • Danny kills it... Sorry people

    Plus how awesome would it be if it was a Adam/Kris duet.
