A song has reportedly leaked from Katharine McPhee’s upcoming album, Unbroken, due to be released by Verve in January 2010.

Check out the breezy (and a tad lightweight) “Lifetime” after the jump. Based on what I’m hearing so far–including her single “Had it All”, Katharine’s music could use a little more heft.   She could be an adult alternative darling with the right material.

Last night, Katharine joined Sheryl Crow, Ben Harper and Tom Morello in Los Angeles   for the Rock a Little Feed A Lot benefit concert with proceeds to benefit both Feeding America and the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank.

A charity single, called “All We Need is Love” written especially for the event will be released next week.

And if that isn’t enough Katharine news, check out her latest on Funny or Die HERE. Katharine and Alyson Hannigan, Emily Deschanel, Minka Kelly and Jaime King do the funny for breast cancer awareness.

    not a huge fan of her or her music, but can i just say, I love her broad swimmer’s shoulders!

    Fun song. Cute, upbeat lyrics. It sounds more like folk than country though. Had It All, Katharine’s single, does sound country.

    David Foster has Helped foster the careers of of a lot of the Best of the Best iconic like singers Like Celine, Josh, and buble. Lately he seems to be missing the mark when he has picked up some unsuccessful idol contestants.
    I don’t know, but he does seem to be losing his touch, or he is getting soft about who he is agrees to work with. Kat had a bad rep at idol even before she got her Idol contract, so it is not surprising that she might be difficult to work with.
    I personally did Love her voice, but I do not feel this song is particularly good or even particularly bad just …Meh!
    I do however take a strong stand on her Bleached Blonde look….Totally
    washes her face out!! She was stunning as a Brunette!!!
    I too, think she should do an album that combines some of the jazzy
    standards or music out of the 30′s 40′s and 50′s. She could cover some of the great divas and make them her own.

    I like Kat better in brunette hair. I’ll always think of her as an actress who can sing and I think that is her niche.

    The song itself does sound a bit country to me – as in it could be remade as country with the right singer, instruments, and arrangement.
