Michael Slezak of EW has been listening to Kris Allen’s new single “Live Like We’re Dying” since Tuesday, and he floves it.
…the good folks at Jive sent a don’t-leak-under-threat-of-death link to one of my colleagues ‘†and Kris, who admitted to me during his Idol tour stop in Albany last month that he loves surprising people with his musical choices, shows a new and impressive level of vocal adroitness on the rapid-fire chorus, without missing an emotional beat in the process. Suddenly, the idea of the nation collectively rolling down its windows and chanting ‘You’ve only got eighty-six-four-hundred seconds in a day to/ Turn it all around or throw it all away/ Gotta tell ’em that we love ’em while we got the chance to say’ ¦’ seems not only plausible, but entirely likely.
The rest of us have had to settle for a 22 second clip, but fear not, we’ll all hear it soon. New York’s Z100 will be premiering the song on Monday, September 21, at 7:40 am ET.
I’ll get up early for that…
