Kris Allen takes the crown!

" Seconds hours so many days
You know what you want but how long can you wait
Every moment last forever if you feel you’ve lost your way
What if your chances are already gone
Started believing that I could be wrong
But you give me one good reason
to fight and never walk away"

The world takes on the new American Idol. He is the one and only Kris Allen- the dark horse of the competition. It was tense before Ryan announced the winner because to me, they are both very talented singers.

" Coz hear I am — still holding on!

Every step you climb another mountain
Every breathe its harder to believe

You’ll make it through the pain (or through all your aches and pains)
Weather the hurricane
To get to that one thing

When you think the road is going nowhere
Just when you’ve almost gave up on your dreams
Then take it by the hand and show you that you can"

With his 'Ain't No Sunshine' sung during the final showdown, and favourites like 'Falling Slowly' and 'Heartless' throughout the season, he deserves to win! He surely has come a long way.

" You can go higher
You can go deeper
There are no boundaries
Above and beneath you
Break every rule coz there’s nothing between you
and your dream "

Winning the title, he sings the winning song, 'No Boundaries' and he definitely sang it more than Adam. The judges were right, the song was more suitable for Kris- it's a story in the song.



Adam was really good too. Throughout the competition, his performances were stellar and surprisingly great. He chose 'Mad World' for the finals and i liked the effect- may be because it was theatrical. Anyhow, he was top-notch!



And so be told, we will have to wait until January next year for the new season to come in. And the adrenaline rush too. wc09 wows American Idol 8 for yet another awesome season!

" Every step you climb another mountain
Every breathe its harder to believe "
