I guess I like soppy singalongs; I used to groove to N’Sync stuff too back in the day; even attended 2 concerts! I know, sillyness. But if I could rip this tune from the internet, I would! If it was on iTunes, I’d DL it! OK, let me have it now….. I can take it!

As for this song – (Oh no this is the salient point in the second paragraph). It does sound just like a JC Chasez song!! Especially the end. I could picture this being sung by N Sync…lol..

I’m sure this is just a demo and he won’t lead with it. It’s not bad, but it’s not good either. It’s forgetable. When Kris finds the right song he hits it well. He just needs the right material and this isn’t it.

If i wasn’t curious before, now I’m practically dying to hear what type of songs are picked for his debut. I think Kris is going to surprise alot of us here (for better or worse)

I think the song is pretty enough, but it doesn’t seem suited to Kris’s voice. His lower range is so beautiful and I think this song just wouldn’t highlight that. C’mon songwriters, give him something to sing in his warm deep voice.

so agree with this…. I wish at least one will showcase this

I doubt it will end up on the album.

I see this came from a JC fan site and there is nothing official about it. He possibly submitted this to Jive, as I’m sure quite a few songwriters (and wannabe songwriters) do. Or one of his fans got hold of this demo and decided it should go to Kris.

I could seriously write a song (hey, I’ve written poetry and I have Garage Band on my computer) and get my nephew’s award winning blues band to record a demo and tweak it a bit. Then I can, or they could, shoot it off to Jive saying it was written for Kris Allen or whomever via registered mail.

There we go … with very little effort I can honestly say that a song I’ve written has been accepted by Jive for inclusion on Kris Allen’s debut album. I can have the demo ‘leaked’ on said nephew’s band site and myspace music. Instant hits for them and maybe a few people will buy their stuff. (It’s actually very good.)

I just checked out the youtube of the song JC wrote for David Archuletta. It stinks to high heaven and is incredibly sing-songy.

Could Kris Allen change up this sample to make it something ok? Most likely. Should he? No.

hope it wont be on kris’s album…

is jc the lead singer..the dark hair dude? how i loved n-sync in my tweens years…esp bye bye bye

The truth is, JC has never been good on his own, his debut solo album sucked

Wait, was that the album that Blowin Me Up With Her Love was on? LOL, I loved that song hard, it was my singalong jam for months. But true, not exactly a songwriting masterpiece. But in a totally different vein, Something Special was a really nice song, very sweet yet sexy.

But yeah, JT has completely eclipsed the guy.

Maybe JC saw how much attention The Scripts got for their leak of LLWD

It’s probably just semantics, but I don’t think you can really call the youtube of The Scripts version of LLWD a leak, since it’s been up since January of this year, back when the Idol Season 8 audition episodes were still airing.

And unless the record company is already married to BSM, which seems unlikely (although I do think that Kris could really do something with it) I would say that the leak of the song really does tank its chances to make the album. I would think anyone whose songs are approved for the album is under a strict non-disclosure agreement, and it seems like the leak would violate that.

I don’t think his voice sounds like Kris’ at all. And I’m sure Jive had tons of better songs to choose from.

I’m [thinking] this song has already been rejected. Otherwise why would he put it up now? it doesn’t make sense, does it? If it’s really still being considered, I don’t think he’ll put it up for people to listen to, IMO.

Maybe JC saw how much attention The Scripts got for their leak of LLWD, so he figured he’d try it too, to give himself some publicity.

As was pointed out earlier, JC co-wrote (with David Archuleta) the song “Don’t Let Go” which made it onto David’s album, but he also wrote another song for David called “Ruined Me” which never made it onto the album. That song is even listed on ASCAP with JC Chasez as a co-writer and Archie as the performer. However, it has never seen the light of day. No leaked YouTube or MP3. No one knows what it sounds like.

My point is that since “Build Some Love” has been leaked, then it is very possible that it will be showing up on Kris’s album. Besides, if it didn’t make it onto the album, it would be doing the future buyer of that song a disservice to leak it. The fact that it has been leaked depreciates its value. Having said that, the opposite is also true. If it has made it onto the album, it does a disservice to Kris to have leaked the demo. Very disrespectful indeed.

IMO Kris is way better than this’ ¦. i want him to do well

He will.

If Kris were to record this, it wouldn’t be a cover. This is a demo. Writers do demos for their songs all the time, then submit them to labels for consideration. That’s just how the process works.

Remember Adam’s cover of “Want”. It wasn’t meant to be released.

Wow, Ryan wrote this and sounds like Ryan is singing. Is that realllllly Kris?

No’“JC Chasez wrote this song and it’s his voice on this demo.

Oh haha, if I had read a few posts I would have known that, lol. Just got here and misread what MJ wrote I guess. I wondered how Kris was hitting thos lowwwww notes!

So Ryan is writing for both Kris and Adam. I guess it’s o.k but all Ryan’s songs sound like Apologize? I don’t know his music that well but every song I hear by him sounds very much the same to me……just asking.

Wow, Ryan wrote this and sounds like Ryan is singing. Is that realllllly Kris?

No–JC Chasez wrote this song and it’s his voice on this demo.

I wish that another nsync member and fellow Jive label mate would help Kris (namely Justin Timberlake).

I’d be interested in that, too. I could see Kris doing well with a song like “What Goes Around Comes Around.” Didn’t Kris say in his most recent interview with Slezak that he was listening to Justin Timberlake on his iPod?

I like the melody and words and think that Kris could do something with it. Everything he does has his own stamp on it. I think he would step it up a bit and just Krisify it.

When I first listened, I thought Kris was singing (which is why I wasn’t so sure at first–not because I thought it was Kris, just wasn’t sure about the voice I was hearing). Then I realized it was a demo and not Kris singing the song. I think Kris could make it his own. No doubt about it.

So, the song is okay. Kris would make it much better. Hope that clarifies my point.

As for JC’s stuff, just meh!!
