Before We Come Undone Can't Stay Away would do well too
I didn't think Kris would do well on radio but he seems to have enough radio hits for this cd. He may actually stick around.

Before I was rooting for Before We Come Undone for his second single, but now I'm on team Alright With Me. It's so upbeat and infectious, and I'm sure it would sound great on the radio.

Before We Come Undone, hands down.
Nothing else would be a good choice. Kris needs to build momentum with his career. LLWD has created momentum for him on radio and BWCU could make it even higher and then AWM could be a summer smash and then cap it off with CSA, TT, or WAOMF. Kris is an artist, as of now, whose career is solely based on momentum, if he loses it with the wrong choice of single than this album will be done.

I'd be disappointed with any other choice.

Jive...do...not...fail...me lol. BWCU, imo is one of the best songs on this album period. He sounds great when he uses his lower register and that is in full force on bwcu. Does wonders for his songwriting cred which he cares about, this song shows that.

Before We Come Undone is the only sure-fire hit on the album. LLWD was a gamble and it worked, so it's time to go for the sure-fire hit and build a radio relationship before throwing anything else out there.

AWM is a cool song, but it's hit potential is not that big in the current state of pop radio IMO, it needs to be released with a couple of hits under Kris' belt to be able to make an impact... The LLWD + BWCU duo could do that trick

Pretty sure no one is checking for dude's 2nd single. His gay porn debut, maybe a few people are lookin for that.

I think "Alright With Me" could be massive for Kris and it comes off really well in live performances. You can say it's repetitive and maybe a little simple, but a lot of the biggest hits are ones that even small children can pick up on and sing along with, and I think AWM has a shot at being that kind of song.
"Before We Come Undone" would be a different sound from Kris than LLWD, that might give people the idea of checking out his album. BWCU is very breezy and has a pleasant melody, but it's a little safe to me, especially for someone who has to deal with being dismissed as generic/vanilla/boring/bland/etc. It's not his fault and it isn't fair at all, but it is what it is. I guess I just feel that AWM is a little funkier and different, and even though it's upbeat, too, the lyrics and tone of AWM aren't that similar to LLWD, plus, it's already in ads on TV now, so they might as well just go with it.

KA being topped by a gay film actor dressed and styled as Adam Lambert. Shedding, hair flying.

BWCU is such a ridiculously good song. No way it would not be a hit. AWM could be if it catches on. Considering how difficult it is for Idol alum to have a successful second single, Kris should go with the safe choice and pick BWCU.

Before We Come Undone is a good song- I see it as a mid-hit.

KA being topped by a gay film actor dressed and styled as Adam Lambert. Shedding, hair flying. Adam Lambert's smirking during his interview on the VH1 video countdown as he referred to Kris and him being roommates confirmed without a doubt that the songs "Let It Rain" and "Written All Over My Face" are about Lambert's semen. Needless to say, Kris will be very comfortable in the porn setting you have detailed. And it will sure earn him more than the 40k albums he has sold.

BWCU. I looove Alright With Me but it needs to be the last single of the era or just stay an album track.
PS love that there's been thirty votes and WAOMF hasn't got a single one.

Alright With Me
It may be a little risky, but it would help sell the album, IMO.

1. Live Like We're Dying 2. Before We Come Undone (Spring-Summer) 3. Can't Stay Away/Alright With Me (Summer) 4. Bring It Back/The Truth (Fall) Heh... if they all have the longevity that LLWD had, then this album will take him well into 2012! I'm pulling for "Can't Stay Away". "Alright With Me" is good, but the chorus is too repetitive for me. "BWCU" is excellent, but too similar to LLWD. Save that one for third single. "The Truth" can close out the era, but I don't think it has the legs to be second single.

This poll shows just how blah this album is. There's no dark horse candidate here since the album is so dreadfully bland. Not bad, just bland and repetitive.
