I like it. its style is similar to a lot of the pop rock songs in the radio.
Any prediction where this will peak?

It's nothing that's gonna set the world on fire - but it's catchy! I think it'll do better on HAC than on Pop but I'm sure it'll do decently enough.

This should do well because it's catchy. That said, it's kinda boring so part of me hopes it doesn't become too big a hit. I'll get sick of hearing it pretty fast. Kris should have his picture next to white bread in the dictionary.
I could see a peak of 15 in Top 40 and 10 or better in HAC.

They want to have musician as their job, and they want an audience for their music. But for the most part Idol's stars are not hoping to be Hollywoodish and be on tabloid magazines.
With a Z100 debut this should have no problem going top 20. At least top 15.

I'm gonna say around #16 on CHR....it's pretty radio-friendly so it should be able to perform decently, but it's nothing to get excited over either so I don't see it getting much higher than the lower top 20. As for the Hot 100, he doesn't have a lot of hype so I don't see him getting a super high Hot 100 debut (like David Archuleta's Crush did last year - Adam might, though). I'll say a peak in the #17 - #25 range on the Hot 100. This will probably perform the best on Hot AC.

Just like Taylor, his career's over before it ever got started. This will do nothing, followed by a 2nd single that will do even more nothing, followed by him being dropped from Jive. Bank on it. LOL. love how sure you are.

Jive rarely drops an artist. They still have Nick Lachey on their label.
The single is alright. I was expecting a little more but it should be able to go top 20 at the very least. :)

Debut at Z100?! Awesome!!! This is why I LOVE Jive! Exactly... they won't let this flop. As usual, a lot of people are underestimating Kris. I hope he comes out on top yet again!

LOL @ the comparison to Taylor Hicks. Let's be realistic about the music business, looks do play a bit of a factor. Plus Taylor wasn't exactly singing mainstream/radio-friendly songs, making it hard to actually promote him. As for Jive possibly dropping Kris really quickly, I doubt it. Even though Jordin Sparks had the lowest Idol debut sales, they stuck with her, pushed her singles on the radio and look at all the platinum singles now (and platinum debut album). Different story if it's RCA. Debut at Z100?! Awesome!!! This is why I LOVE Jive! Exactly... they won't let this flop. As usual, a lot of people are underestimating Kris. I hope he comes out on top yet again! It'll be fun to come back to these first few pages and read those "flop!!!" comments if this song become a hit lol

(not implying anything, just answering a question) i get it ...u mention RCA is not taken care of their artist and adam lambert is in that company. ok it does not mean anything.....as long adam has good single and the album sell great i dont think there is problem since there are plenty hot producers for adam.... back to kris...meltdown,i was also loving kris when he sang for the first time in semi final.hope kris makes the fan proud by having a great successful single.dont disappoint me and the others.

I would be shocked if this got top 20. I guess it depends on how much the "Kris Allen" name can carry the single, but I just don't see a top 20 showing.
Maybe my opinion will change when I hear the full version.

I don't think Kris name can carry this song to the top, but Jive can.

If Tattoo can be one of the worst songs I've ever heard and go Top 10, Kris can get pretty far with this song.
