Kris has been back in the recording studio the last couple days and he has tweeted what appear to be partial lyrics for new songs
He tweeted this one overnight on Monday:
"I don't wanna believe that love is just a dream and now we're wakin up."
And then today he tweeted this:
"This city's gonna break your heart. It's gonna leave you colder."
On Wednesday, he tweeted this lyric:
"I could build a dream that we won't ever wanna wake up from."
On Thursday he tweeted this:
"maybe I should wear a warning that says there is danger if you ever get to close to me."
It's not clear whether these are from 1,2, 3 or even 4 songs. But since he's always been very closemouthed about his songs, fans are hoping that the fact he's tweeting lyrics means that we are getting very close to hearing a release date or at least the name of his next single

A dj/producer accidentally posted a techno dance remix version of the Kris song "Vision Of Love" produced by Finnish duo Maison & Dragen. The site has been taken down. This is a remix of the song Jive previewed for PDs back in July last year. The original was described as being an uptempo pop/rock song with enough of a beat to appease top40 PDs.
Full Remix:
Still no word if this is the first single. There was also another Kris song "Jump Around" that was making the rounds last week from the same guys about remixing for RCA.
Unofficial Edit:

I'm trying to picture it unremixed. I guess it could be decent? It's so hard to tell. A Kris dance remix...how weird.

Yeah, the remix goes on a bit too long in spots (especially in the hook when he repeats "Stand for the vision of love" like 20 times) but it sounds hot and his vocals sound superb on it. I feel like I'm almost going to be disappointed when I hear the original b/c I'm really feeling this remix so much. Still, I have a feeling I'll really like the official version. Can't wait!

More news from Toby Knapp: KRIS ALLEN fans... get ready for THE OFFICIAL single and CD details from RCA records as soon as next week!But wait, does that mean the song which leaked this week... might not be the single? Here's what we know... Sources close to the label and ALLEN's radio promotions team at RCA Records, who had a possible REMIX of ALLEN'S song leak after one manager of one of a remix DJ, clearly excited, posted a link to the remix on his TWITTER timeline this week, say that the label will release their offical plans at some point next week. Quoting those sources close to the label... "Kris’ new album is almost done & this is one of the songs that we’re super psyched about... and is in the running to be the first single. Because the original version of “The Vision Of Love” is uptempo Kris thought it would be cool to... on the down-low... experiment with some fresh, unexpected remixes... the producers we’ve approached have all been really into the song... and it seems like this trance remix team from Finland called Maison & Dragen just got a little over-excited with their version." It should also be pointed out that the single's official title HAS NOT been confirmed by the label, although these things generally are found in the chorus - or hook - of a single.

So excited -- seems like we are finally getting really close to getting new music released by Kris!
I really like the dance remix of Vision of Love and am interested in hearing the original. I want to hear all his new stuff, of course, but one song he mentioned (before they edited the interview) really intrigued me -- it's called "Monster".
Got my ticket for his show at The Mint on 2/9. Can't wait!

I haven't been as obsessed with a song as I am with Vision of Love in the LONGEST time.
The original will be top notch as well I'm sure.

LYA = Leave You Alone. It was the first new song after his post-idol album. He started performing it live about a year ago. So far, here are the song titles that we know about (very likely that some of these dont make the final cut; just listing whatever is known).
Vision of Love Leave You Alone You Got A Way Keep That Devil Out Out Alive Monster Teach Me How Love Goes Im Coming Over All We Need Is This Love

Other song titles that we know about (again, unknown which if any will be on album)
Fighters For Better or Worse Best Intentions Headed Towards the Sunrise We Are Keep the Light On Unique Better with You Beautiful Breakdown Breaking in a Broken Heart 100 Reasons I Just Want You Somewhere I've Never Been Record High Love Rooftops
Kris' guitarist Cale Mills reportedly said that Kris had written or co-written more than 80 songs since KATA was released... and he said that months ago, so I wouldn't be surprised if that number was actually over 100

I hadn't thought about the song being in a major key--I'd been imagining that it would be G minor (like the remix) instead of Bb major (the original). I'm looking forward to hearing the full version--hopefully it won't be long now.

This thread gives me so much life today. Glad that there are some cool Kris fans on Pulse. I was a HUGE supporter of him during his time on Idol and I bought his CD and thought it was stellar...definitely one of the best Idol debuts.

I'm looking forward to hearing the full version--hopefully it won't be long now. The snippet of the non-remixed one sounds promising. Perhaps a different set of vocals were used for the remix. I feel like the song should have a bridge, and maybe that was omitted for the remix.
