I am not sure if this is the pictionary game where he reveals the song title but gosh...he is so adorable. I shall post two of the gifs. I heard the song and i must say i am beyond happy. The ending was fantastic. I am glad he manage to make it contemporary but also require good vocals as well.

I guess I'm the only weird person who enjoyed learning that Kris has fantastic handwriting. LOL

And it could totally backfire causing his wholesome image to go down the drain and he alienates his core fanbase. His core fanbase isn't very big, nor has it helped him that much, so it's not a huge risk.' Considering that his photo shoot consisted of him, his wife, and his dog I'm not expecting it to be too sexy, or for it to look like his management finally realizes that he's not 40 years old.

The photo shoot was not only for his album but for other media materials as well such as bio, website and promo packet.

I know that, and even though the photos will more than likely look nice, it's hard to believe that they will stress his sex appeal. It doesn't seem like Kris wants to do that, and the addition of Katy and the dog looks like they are going a different way with the whole promotional campaign.

I am loving this song and it's remix. It sounds like a surefire Hot AC hit. Maybe it can do as well as Gavin's song on Pop formats?

Because of TVOL winning the Last Song Standing challenge on WSTW, the single appears on today's Mediabase CHR chart

Trombones13 I think it is time to change the name of the single to "The Vision Of Love" since Kris has identified it as such & they have changed the name in Mediabase from "Vision Of Love" to "The Vision Of Love". addboard.mediabase.com/AddDetails.asp?sngcde=ALLEVOL

(Darn; I liked it better without it, haha.)

Not a bad song at all. I don't like it as much as some of the songs from his debut, but I could see it becoming a slow-building pop hit (Top 15, maybe).

[ And it could totally backfire causing his wholesome image to go down the drain and he alienates his core fanbase. Again, what's this massive all-powerful fanbase we're talking about? His core supporters are those who've stuck with him through Idol, during quiet times over the last couple of years...they're not suddenly going to abandon him if he takes a few more provocative photos. His core fanbase isn't enough to shift huge amounts of albums, or get his song played on the radio, the masses are. And mass appeal is what he has in spades and what he should play on. I don't understand the dangers or complexities of this idea.

I don't understand the dangers or complexities of this idea. I agree. The label & his management should play up his good looks as much as possible. I think it makes Kris uncomfortable to a certain degree, but on the other hand, he's not stupid. Excited for the press release for this song. I wonder how many formats it will go to? Pop & HAC are obvious and I'm hoping the remix goes out as well. Christian airplay is a given for this song.

Been reading this thread the last few days and I totally agree Jack. First, its safe to say that his core base skews young, they are not going to run kicking and screaming if he shows some sex appeal. He's not prostituting himself but taking the marketing in a subtle direction. And I'm also a fan from practically the beginning(learned about him and adam after idol was almost over), one of those who bought his album etc. So I guess I'm a 'core' fan. I want him to do well and keep his contract and I'm almost sure this is it for him on RCA or a major label for that matter, knowing their track record. So imagine my utter shock that they seemed to have gotten it right when it comes to his first single. And I don't think Kris will have a problem with this like some think . There's been a distinct difference when it comes to how he dresses now, his screen presence on stage, not to mention he's clearly hitting the gym..yep the boy is not stupid. I don't see him pushing this but if his pr folks go there, I think he'll follow as long as it's not so overt. This is not the same flannel wearing, shy guy that popped up on idol. Because he's not a media magnet and probably will never be, his songs will be the deciding factor. But the other stuff can't hurt either. About the single, I've played it a few times now and I love it. His vocal are just ahhh, pls RCA don't screw this up for him. No way this doesn't become a hit on HAC, just hope it can go Top 20 on pop. He's a perfect example of how the wrong singles can derail an album. I think he could have gone gold had TT not screwed things up, hope things go better for him this time around.

Several hints from radio stations that Kris will be one of the artists performing at Live in the Vineyard in Napa, CA, that runs April 13-15. Jason Mraz and Mat Kearney are among the other artists booked for this

Just listened to this, and I really like it! I think this has the potential to become a really big hit if it's properly promoted

Sony Music Entertainment Press Release; AMERICAN IDOL SEASON 8 WINNER KRIS ALLEN TO RELEASE BRAND NEW SINGLE “THE VISION OF LOVE” AVAILABLE MARCH 26 AT ITUNES AND ALL DIGITAL PROVIDERS ON 19 RECORDINGS/RCA RECORDSCLICK HERE NOW TO STREAM KRIS’ NEW SINGLE “THE VISION OF LOVE”: soundcloud.com/rca-music-group/kris...-vision-of-love(New York – March 6, 2012) Kris Allen, winner of the 2009 season of +American Idol returns to center stage with the release of his brand new single “The Vision Of Love,” set for release at iTunes and all digital providers on March 26th on 19 Recordings/RCA Records. Co-written by Kris Allen, Nasri and Adam Messinger, the writer/production team known as The Messengers (Chris Brown/Justin Bieber), “The Vision of Love” showcases Kris’ talent as a singer and songwriter. “The Vision of Love” is his first work as a recording artist since winning the American Idol title in 2009 and releasing his self-titled debut album. Comments Kris: “Winning Idol was such a whirlwind experience - I went into the studio immediately following the show to record my very first album. So, going into the studio this time around was such a different experience, and it really offered me time to hone my craft and create something that really represents who I am as a musician. I was lucky enough to work with such a talented team of top-notch collaborators. Idol has given me such a phenomenal opportunity to reach millions of people and I am so grateful to my fans - can’t wait to share the new music with you!” Kris is currently in the studio working on his brand new yet-to-be-titled album. Since skyrocketing to stardom as the winner of the 2009 season of American Idol, Kris Allen has enjoyed success with five singles on the +Billboard charts. His self-titled debut album features his hit single “Live Like We’re Dying” which has a combined digital sales of over 1.7 million. Since the release of his album he has toured with Keith Urban, Maroon 5, Barenaked Ladies, Lifehouse as well as headlining his own club tour.
