  • two years later and im still confused how he one over adam lambert

  • where i can find the real song of kris allen no boundaries. where is the music video??? plz tell me where. :((

  • watch?v=jt4xHhJCBkU

    Please watch my version , Hope u like it :)

  • Kris allen is just like david cook they both sing and have a guitar while singing

  • @Snufkinized but seriously i prefer david cook lots more LOL

  • wow he is so good (i still prefer adam :) ) he almost sounds like he has asore throt though?

  • pitchy in some of the certain notes. but still he's the besssstttt!!!!!!

  • He got a nice voice. He and adam are best male vocalist. Hehe.

  • No,only adam :)

  • haha. both larh.

  • I agree. This song is just about in the perfect range for him. It's a really powerful song, and they really didn't have any reason to cut it. I have Both Adam, and Kris's version of this song, and personally like Kris's version better. I reallllly looooove this song. And, I might be singing it for a competition, and it's my perfect range too(: Im jelous if you really went to this.

  • great song

  • It looks like he is having a hard time singing this song. I know the song has to stay at such a high level for like 3 mins, it would kill your voice to sing that high for long for 52 shows. As much as I love the song it is better for him not to kill his voice, so i understand why they droped it.

  • how much did it cost to get in?

  • i love him and i love how good kris sings and this song is NOT to big for him its just right... =-)

  • im goin tonight!!!!!!!! i can not wait!!! my mom is comin 2 c adam lambert and im comin 2 c kris allen and matt giraud =D.....we r bringing earplugs for adam though lol

  • They dropped it because this song was shit =) All These Things is so much better!

  • to bad the song was dropped.. but obviously they droped the song because the song is to big for him. im a kris fan but i have to say he struggled with this song, and you can tell.

  • some of the people here are saying they didnt like him singing this song.. i love it though

  • What happened was the song got dropped from his setlist due to "poor audience response". He has been doing "All These Things That I've Done" by The Killers in place of the song.

  • i know thats not fair he didnt sing that in philly! :(

  • dude! he never sung that in Philly! i wonder why? that sucks. if any one is from Philly and went to the concert message me or comment me! im looking for videos and i cant find any. or pictures. anything. thanks a bunch.

  • he never sung that at albany!! why??

  • this vid is pretty good quality. did u tape it or find it online somewhere?

  • great song can not wait for tomm i am going to see it live

  • not this song...he dropped it...

  • happy they killed the song by now and he dont have to sing it anymore.Whats he singing instead??

  • he's singing all these things i've done by the killers, he does great and it's a great "sing-a-long" song for the crowd. :)

  • omg... Poor Kris :( Even though he wasn't my favourite (Adam was) I still feel so bad that he had to sing this. It isn't the greatest song, sure, but it has way to high of a pitch for Kris. They definitely modified his voice a LOT when he recorded it. Hopefully he doesn't perform it tonight in Hamilton.

  • Ew. so happy he aint singing this in Hamilton. time ya BOO when he comes one.

  • i feel bad for him that he had to sing this. adam was better at it

  • i'm an adam fan but, god, poor kris.

    thank god he doesnt have to sing that song anymore!

  • ADAM LAMBERT 4EVER!!!!!

  • I hate this song. He must be glad they took it out of his set. It sucks big monkey balls. Poor guy.

  • I like adams better mm just sayin

  • the funniest thing is that they took this song out of his set because there was really bad audience reception to it. I just saw him last night in DC and it was awesome! GO KRIS!

  • Adam Danny and Matt are the BEST!!!

  • omg yes he looked bored out of HIS MIND from doing that song so many times.

    Dang, SERIOUSLY THOUGH???? listen how can ppl say HE IS A AMERICAN IDOL? plz forget cuteness or whatever. REALLY??? Im AM SHOCKED.

  • What are with all the golwsticks do they give those out or something ?

  • you can buy them in the merchandise stands

  • I went to the concert in Utah and he didn't sing this song! And me and my mom were wondering why he didn't because it's his song! That's really weird that he didn't sing.

  • They cut it from his setlist and replaced it with "All These Things I've Done" by the Killers.

    Lots of people thought the song sucked. Kris has subtly conveyed in a few interviews that he doesn't like the song much either.

  • Oh! Okay! Well, I like the song, but I didn't think he was any good at it. Adam sang it much better. It was more in his range. Just saying though! :]

  • listen starting at 2:21 gosh i ACTUALLY kind of felt bad for him.

    HE HATES this song you can tell. Ugh his voice must hurt after going that (i dont think it is even high?)

    Funny how adam goes billions higher and it doesnt even effect him. AMAZING>

  • i know! i went to san jose and he didnt sing it either, they cut the song from his set b/c the song was to high for him and hurt his throat to sing other songs + he didnt sound that good when he didi it live

  • It doesn't sound good period. Well, I guess the studio version is okay, but it's still not in his range. It just doesn't work for him. I think everyone knows that. :]

  • omgggg. i think id cry if i saw him i love his voice

  • I'm glad they lowered the key so it's easier for him to sing. Even though I'm a fierce Adam supporter, I still wish Kris the best. He's an awesome guy and very talented.

  • finnaly an Adam fan thats not HATEIN on Kris. thank you

  • gayest song.  Ever.

  • I Cant Believe They Changed The Song , That Makes Me SOO Pissed ! , HE SINGS THIS SONG SO AMZINGLY ! , WHY CHANGE IT , THE PEOPLE THAT GAVE THIS SONG BAD RESPONSE , GO SUCK ASS ~!

  • Sorry but.. what do u mean?

  • welll they changed the songg in the concert , and he doesnt do this anymore. and i think they should of kept because when i go to the concert i would like him to sing it. and they changed it because people gave the song bad repsonse , even though theres nothing wrong with the song , everybody just hates kara .

  • OMG he didnt sing this on friday night down in Ontario California mt gf and i were looking forward to this and he didnt sing it

  • this song doesn't fit any voice

  • Yeah! thank you for posting Adam is making this AI tour "The Whole Lotta Love Tour!" NOT COOL. Kris has a good heart and he's a great singer don't forget!!

  • I agree that Adam sings this song alot better. This song sucks to begin with, and it doesn't fit Kris at all. That is not his fault. Kris and Adam are way different types of singers. The reason Kris won, and not Adam is because the majority of America wanted a family man that is married with values, and not a guy with painted finger nails. I mean, Adam is an awesome singer, and I couldn't care less that he is gay. Look at Elton John, and how good he is. Good luck to Kris, Adam, and the other 8.

  • Adam sings this song a million times better, I like Kris but this song is for a a bigger voice and Kris has a more softer voice. that is why Adam sounds better,

  • Yeah but... i think ((IN LIVE)) kris did it better than adam,,,

  • I'm not a singer, or record promoter but.....

    I'm not hearing what is 'supposed' to be great about this guy. Is it really the song that just doesn't fit him? OR....is he (maybe) not feeling his "IDOL STATUS" working for him??? He looks like he is pushing it, and that the time isn't short enough. Hmmmm???

  • Aw, it looked like he looked at the people leaving and then got mad himself. I feel bad; it's not his fault the song is horrible. I mean, look who it's written by...

    Still a good performance, though. <3

  • he's got a CUTE BUTT!!

  • Love Kris but can we drop this song please. Painful to listen to. He could be really enjoying himself.

  • Nice job with a crappy song.  That mic sounds terrible, sounds like you are slurring. Both Kris and Adam are great artist, please stop comparing them. Kris is more commericial and Adam is a strong singer but he is very broadway.

  • your Kick Awsome,Kris!!!!!!! :)

  • ...all i saw was people leaving in the background.......hahahahahahah­lolololololol

  • CONGRATULATIONS for winning the

    2009 American Idol, KRIS ALLEN! ! ! You

    so deserve to win!!

    Enjoy the AI tour! You're awesome KRIS!!

  • okay, i try to do not say anything mean. But i can really listen a whole song from this nice kid. I don't understand why he won AI. Well go Adam.

  • I love him!!I hope he is very successful at everything he does because he has the heart and the voice.

  • Poster before me I see Your Pain....LOL....sounds likek a Miley rip-off to me....

  • I WISH I WAS THERE JUST TO SEE ADAM & DANNY i meen don't get me wrong i love Kris Matt and Allison but I LOVE DANNY AND ADAM THE BEST!

  • This is one of my favourite winning-idol songs actually. Ahhh can't wait to see this performance tomorrow @GM Place in Vancouver!! =)

  • Poor Kris, saddled with this god awful song.

  • I actually really luv the song!

    a lotta ppl say they dont like but i really dont think its awful.

    What DONT you like?? i'm just curious..

  • It's literally FULL of cliches. It's as though they were trying to achieve every cliche in one song. Mountains, hurricanes, boundaries, take you by the hand, road going nowhere, dreams, moments lasting forever, holding on.

    These are things that every bad song addresses.

  • LOL! thats kinda true.

    still an alright song tho.

  • Anybody ever notice when he sings this live, he sings BOUN-DRES. I always thought that sounded funny. still great though.

  • Thats because they wrote two notes in the music to accompany a three syllable lyric. It sounds better musically to make the word into two syllables.

  • Oh man imagine if Adam had to sing this on tour?! This makes me happier that Adam "didn't win" Poor Kris. I'm so glad it's him singing it rather than Gokey though.

  • Kirs is amazing and very consistent. I'm sure if he could have his way he would not sing this song at all. AI needs to do away with the crappy winning moment songs they make these guys sing. I thought Kara was supposed to be a great song writer, well she can't prove it with this crappy piece of work. ROCK ON KRIS!!!

  • I really love this song and so does Kris so i think he doesn't mind singing it. And he sounds awesome, it's better on the recording though.

  • Yes, he was not consistent even on AI, because he if he were, he would just have stayed at the bottom instead of singing his way to the top!

  • Absolutely anyone who thinks Adam Lambert sings this song better is completely off their rocker. This is not a great song to begin with, but Adam doesn't have the heart for it. He needs the big rock anthems. This song is so much better by Kris. I am sorry either of them is stuck singing it in concert, but if I have to hear one or the other, Kris's is much, much, much better.

  • I really feel sorry that kris had to sing this song. Too bad.....

  • I felt bad that he had to sing this song. The crowd lost all their energy they had after Heartless.

  • he's so amazing.

  • The composers did not have him in mind when they wrote the song for the champion.

  • it is absolutely clear that this song was written as Danny Gokey's coronation song... it fit NEITHER Kris OR Adam's voice at all, although Kris has done an exceptional job with it, expecially when she sings is accapella!!

  • By the way, my last comment referencing Gokey was no knock on Kris or Adam... I LOVE them. I just think Kris threw a wrench in their plans when he knocked Gokey out : )

    And GOOD LORD I would have ZERO interest in watching this video if the Gokester had won. GAG!

  • Kris keeps changing this song bit by bit everytime he sings it, making the song more palatable to our hearing plate, and keep the mediocre song interesting each time. Plus, his voice sounds great in this song.

  • dude, this guy rocks!

  • I wish AI wouldn't make Kris sing this shitty song!

  • then why the hell are you watching this moron???

  • because, imbred, i'm subscribed to seattletimesdotcom and in order for the video to get off my home page i have to watch it at least, briefly. i have other videos i'd like to enjoy but they don't pop up on my new subbed vids because there are many others ahead of it.

  • funny. i'm subscribed to lots of channels and i don't have to watch their videos to get them off my home page... and i CERTAINLY don't have to take time out of my day to comment on these videos that i'm not interested in.

    nice "imbred" remark. you know what that means, right? People who don't know how to spell "inbred". since you evidently took the liberty of looking to see that i live in TN, i did the same with you... Kentucky, is it?? HA! what a classy, classy guy you are...

  • no i didn't see what state you live in, i don't give a shit. i'm sorry that's a typo, considering "n" and "m" are right beside each other on the keyboard, but nice try. i also don't have to take the time out of my day to comment videos i'm not interested in. but i like to stir things up. get people's blood pumping. it's good to start your morning off, that way. i knew someone would eventually send me a comment to entertain me. and you, my friend, succeeded.

  • such class... i mean really. your posts just exude it. your mother must be so proud. have a great day now friend... ha!

  • haha. well i'm a music major at saint leo's university in florida. and i play soccer here. my mother doesn't care what i say to people as long as i get an education and become something in life. i look like her and act like her in many ways. yes, she is, very proud of me.

  • well that is just fabulous. like i said, have a great day! bye bye now : )

  • I wish they would have given Kris an easier song to sing for his coronation song. It's a tough song to sing live but I think he sounds pretty great on it.

  • Is this song ever on the radio? I dont listen to it much, so i wouldnt know. But no one seems to know this tune other than avid AI followers.

  • hate that song, but kris makes it so much better.

  • Kris is great, this song is a mood killer loll he did his best with a bad situation tho haha

  • He has a beautiful voice.

  • I would be sooooo pissed if I were Kris! Everyone knows this song sucks so i'm surprised that they are making him sing this. To me it's a set killer but at least he gets it over with at the beginning :)

  • the song has grown on me.

  • i love Kris and he sung this awesomely!! :D

  • LOVE kris... Hate this song...

  • such a horrible song...

  • awesome thanks for this!!!

  • kris, i heart you so freaking much, even on THIS.

  • AWESOME!!!!!
