I wonder if Kris is gonna be the first guest performer when the Top 12 begins... he would still get the chance to perform LLWD before it peaks on radio, and with a boost in digital sales, it might hit top 10 on BBHot100. Highly highly doubtful. Even under the most optimistic view, LLWD has a month max before it has peaked. Theyre not going to ask Kris back to perform that quickly. Anyways, I dont want him to waste an Idol performance on LLWD. The song does not work well live. Its too hard to sing and a live performance of it has never made that much of a difference in sales. Save the next performance for the second single.

Yes it was subtle but emotionally packed. Someone said it best he doesn't have the 'biggest' voice but he knows how to use it to its fullest.

I wanted to vote for him again. He's just going to get better, too. He's just now starting to realize he's pretty damn good and belongs there.

Never been his biggest fan, but that Let It Be performance was very good. Better than any performance he ever gave on the show, imo. I would've voted for him if he had performed like that last year.

That was a beautiful performance of "Let It Be." I'm looking forward to buying it on iTunes. I hope it becomes available early tomorrow, and we don't have to wait an extra day for it.

What made those performances for me is what he did with the arrangements, not the vocals. I never had a performance of his on the show that I thought, wow he can really sing. Tonight I did think that. That's just me though.

I really enjoyed Kris's performance of Let It Be on Idol. Both the vocals and performance were really good.

i like him when he performed man in the mirror but i totally love him and pick him as my favourite when he performed make u feel my love. he had been and always been the one who knows his strength and able to pick the right song to sing and sing it well. by having so little screen time last year,he was smart by not play instrument on the semi final round and just sing.he did his best by choosing the right song and sing it well. then after that week he show his talent on playing instrument and sing well like falling slowly and aint no sunshine.then after that showing how he can change the arrangment of songs like heartless and she works hard for the money. PS:u guys are right,he should pick something like this over llwd.

Am I the only one who didn't think it was amazing? I s t a n over Kris as much as any other but I just wasn't feeling the arrangement. His vocals were quite good, but the arrangement made it feel cheap to me. (Not that I expected some highly technical production.)

Really wierd that this is seemingly going to peak on HAC before it does on pop. Would never have expected that.
