This song is crap. It's overplayed and so depressing. If you live like you're dying you're always fearful and panicky and depressed, stressed to do everything you want because you think that you're dying. Who thought this was a good idea? The thing to do is like KISS says in Lick It Up, "You've gotta live like you're on vacation." See? There, you still get everything done that you wanna do without feeling depressed or fearful. You get to enjoy life. That's my philosophy.
I am a HUGE fan of the script but I have no problem with this song. It is a true cover, and kris allen sounds a lot like Danny O'Donaghue so I'm not complaining. I think that they just wanted this song to be more popular in the US, so why not have an American Idol winner sing it? I like the original, and I like the cover. Go the Script and Kris Allen!
THE SCRIPT WROTE THIS SONG- i personally like kris's version better though but he didnt even make the lyrics the song or anything he just sanng it -_-
we only got 86 400 seconds in a day to turn it all around or throw it all away, we gotta tell em that we love em while we got the chance to say...gotta live like were dying!:)
I like the script's version better. kris allen kinda sounds like he's trying to copy it. i think my opinion would be different if he added something of his own to it.
I completely agree. There's really no point to covering a song if you're going to try to sound just like the original artist. It's as if he's singing karaoke...
He doesn't really add anything, but i admit his vocals are better. But I feel kinda weird that it's not really his song. Not to say that he doesn't sing it well.
kris allen kris allen kris allen kris allen kris allen kris allen kris allen kris allen kris allen kris allen kris allen kris allen love kris allen !!!! who's with me ???
he didnt just take this song from the script. all american idols do that. but he really didnt change anything at all. his vocals are the exact same, no variation, thats why i think its unfair
This isn't covering, this is stealing. The Script is so much better and I feel like I have to defend them because they're just so awesome and they don't deserve some newbie to steal their songs :(
just like the jonas brothers stole from busted. i understand with covering a song and whatever, but ur supposed to give credit to the original writers/performers (thats why i dont really like it when ppl
i understand that the script gave him permission and stuff but the script version is sooo much better. it is physically impossible to be better than the script.
i loved this :) and kris did NOT copy. The Script gave him the fricken permission so just chill. and since kris won American Idol, he's under the songs that they write for him, so BLAH!! Stop the complaining, kris did the awesome singing :) u ppl who leave bad comments, keep to yourself :)
Yes but Kris didn't made his original! He copied all the tunes altho he requested permission I dont like the way that the tune is almost exactly the same, and the background voices appear at the same time. Kris should at least change the tune a little bit or like make it original.
LOL i saw the comments and gave the original a listen and ppl are saying how he 'stole' or 'copied' The Script...sounds like he sang THE SONG rather than do anything with it at all...its happened many times like with Cascada and What Hurts the most by Rascal Flatts or Dont Stop Believing...its perfectly fine as long as they have permission =) and Kris sang it well but if anyone attempted this with a Michael Jackson song...theyd miserably fail...because hes one of a kind and so is his voice =) <3
That is funny that people are saying he stole the song from The Script because in the music video he looks sooo much like the head singer in The Script, I thought it was him, they not only look identical but they sound identical.
I don't understand why people say he "took" it or "stole" it from The Script. He has to get permission from them to use it. And, I do agree it sounds exactly the same...
@ifockey910 CMON first of all the script is getting so much press from kris's song. and before today i had no idea who the script was. but now because of kris(theobvious more popular one ) i know of them. ITS CALLED A REMIX. every artist does it and it is a good song so lay offf
Is this a cover cuz if it is he probly just put his own spin on it? Rite?
