Third single from his self-titled album, and follow-up to "The Truth". It'll probably be a minor top-40 hit here, but I'm not expecting much more than that.

Wow really! COOL SONG :) I liked this or BWCU for his 3rd single so I'm glad they picked this. :)

Wow. This really should have followed up LLWD. It could have been big. Right now, I think "Before We Come Undone" is his best shot for another big hit.

^ I completely disagree. After the failure of The Truth, Kris' best shot is with something upbeat. I think this song works perfectly. I could see it being a Top 20 hit.

That song is good but has no hook at all. I think this song the've chosen is a smart choice. It's upbeat, catchy and fun. For people to go searching for it after every idol show just by hearing a 3seconds snippet of it in a commercial, says a lot about the song IMO. It just grabs your attention. As for Jive not choosing this as follow up to LLWD, there are lots of things that go on behind the scenes in this industry regarding contracts with songwriters and others that we may never know. So, I'm just glad that they gave Kris his due by releasing a song he co-wrote. I think it would do extremely well. |

Where did The Truth peak on HAC? 17 (I think, maybe 18?) before plummeting into oblivion. |

Kris just tweeted:
@krisallen: "Alright With Me" has been released to radio! So call your radio stations and request that stuff! #alrightwithme

This song could be a big hit if Jive actually pushes it to radio. When it was on HitPredictor, it got a fantastic rating -- like Top 10 Pop/Top 5 HAC.
So far, it has gotten spins from Hot AC stations in Little Rock and Orlando (6 spins total that I know of). Will be interesting to see if it gets any adds on Monday.
They really should push this song to both Pop and Hot AC

Kris said in his MTV interview when asked about a music video for AWM that they (Jive I assume) are looking into some stuff. So it looks like there may be a MV coming. This time he will not be in the desert.

It looks like this song will get at least 3 automatic Hot AC adds this coming week. It's also getting spun by the CHR station in Little Rock.
It's on All-Access's site under Cool New Music as well as on the "spin increase" and "taking off" sections on the Hot AC mediabase chart on A-A as well

this song is moving up steadily. It has made 1st first appearance on the mediabase POP chart
217 KRIS ALLEN Alright With Me 6 0 6 0.013
I am sure it is on the mediabase HOT AC chart as well, likely much higher than #217. Does anyone have access to the full Hot AC chart?

As expected, AWM has gotten 3 automatic Hot AC and 1 automatic Pop add so far today. It is now #174 on the Pop chart. It is listed as one of 5 "Hot Picks" on the Hot AC section of All-Access

Anyone think that releasing this at the same that Lee is releasing a single could hurt the chances for this single?

I don't think Lee will affect anything for Kris, and vice versa. Lee is on RCA, Kris is with Jive. Yes, they're both managed by 19, but I imagine they have different people working with them. IMO, they won't impact each other in regards to promotion.

Lee's is a first single, this is an afterthought single. Even top 50 on HAC will be a challenge for this song.

If Jive actually pushes this song it will go Top 50 Hot AC without any trouble. It was rated a Top 10/Top 5 smash on HitPredictor. It just needs the label to get behind it. It would also help if they release it to Pop as well as Hot AC

Also, HitPredictor ranked songs like Diary, Kissin U, and GITA high in Top 40 (few recent examples I remember..,) but none of these songs reached the top 10 in Top 40, so I personally think their results are questionable. I also wonder how many people actually voted for each of these songs there. |

Kris stated last night in an interview with a reporter from OK Mag that he has a whole list of radio events that are pending. So, it looks like Jive is going to push AWM. Hopefully something will be finalized soon. He still had no adds date info. He also revealed that an acoustic version of one of his songs will be available soon for his fans.

According to Brian Mansfield at USA Today, AWM is #63 on the Hot AC chart.
Considering it hasn't gotten an adds date and Jive doesn't seem to be pushing it at all (unless they are doing so very subtly) that isn't horrible. Would be nice to see how it would do with an adds date and a video, though

Kris is going to be on Ryan Seacrest's radio show at 8:30 a.m. (Pacific time) tomorrow. He's also taping something for Extra! (1 p.m. at The Grove in L.A.) and is playing the KIIS-FM "Purse Party"
Will be interesting to see if KIIS gives AWM a token spin

Well someone seems interested in promoting Kris and/or AWM because he had a BOATLOAD of interviews/appearances/performances in Los Angeles today Interview on KIIS-FM w/ Ryan Seacrest Performance at KIIS_FM's Purse Party Performance/interview for ExtraTV! that as filmed live at The Grove (will air on Thanksgiving) Performance for E!News interview with Lyndsey Parker (Yahoo) interview with Young Hollywood interview with AI.com interview with examiner.com Meanwhile, if you look on yes.com, the spins for AWM have picked up not to mention this: mix941fm.radio.com/2010/11/17/kris-allen-is-number-1/now whether any of this will give AWM and/or Kris a real boost, who knows? But it's nice to see |

Kris did radio interviews on Billy Bush's syndicated show and Rick Dees as well. Also tweeted this today as a thank you to the fans  I dont want to be too optimistic, but this seems like it is really happening. Dont see an adds date happening until January, but signs are pointing towards that actually happening. |

What signs? Kris tweeted that this went to radio over a month ago and no adds date yet? I've seen nothing by Jive to indicate they're doing anything with this song.
That video is adorable though.

Last night was the final stop on Kris' tour opening for Lifehouse. He decided to surprise people by debuting a new song, called Leave You Alone. Here's video of the song www.youtube.com/watch?v=bBo_0BQurPw |
