Considering the lyrics, maybe she’s singing TO wjmtv’s next husband…

Still don’t like her…just too brassy…or sumthin… too me. I predict she looks like Nanny Fine’s mother in a few years.

The song isn’t my favorite but I’m rooting for Kim to do well. She’s taken a lot of grief -some self-inflicted but much of it for petty, catty reasons-and hasn’t given up on herself when many others would have thrown in the towel.

I love the single. I think it fits her voice perfectly. If anyone wants to hear more of the album, here’s a link to the EPK: http://vimeo.com/6858400

Ugh. I thought that song was hideous. And I didn’t resent her at all when she was dating wjmtv’s future husband. She was very discreet, both during and after, for which I give her a lot of credit. But I never liked her voice much, and that song just sounded like a lot of shouting.

The song’s ok, not bad, and ,yes, she has been talking about the album for a long time.

I never understood the hate towards her as well. I actually stopped reading boards last year because of it. She’s always been extremely hard working and does have a fun personality. I also believe she’s better at tv, but this is her dream and I’m really glad she’s going for it.

I think she’s cute too and she’s got a fun personality. She does a great job on the ‘Idols Wrap’ show with Justin Guarini. I always looked forward to that.

ITA. I never understood all the hate directed at her when she was dating wjmtv‘s next husband. She’s fun on the Idol show and she and Justin have good chemistry together. I feel like she’ll have a better career developing the TV personality angle than the music angle, but this song isn’t terrible, by any means.

She’s got a a wonderfully husky voice, and I’m one who finds her adorable, too. Plus, I will always respect her for her discretion in regard to wjmtv’s next husband.

(Not meaning to be snarky, but I am curious if she’s always had that husky quality, or if smoking did it.)

She looks really artificial in that picture. I guess it’s stage makeup maybe?

This is the kind of song I would have expected from Allison…

Gah please no.
It does sound dated – no modern elements and too repetitive – with no gut behind it.
But I can see why you say that, because of her vocal tone and thats cool.
Wait till you hear Alli’s Holiday and No One else.

I assume she’s lip-synching?

I would guess yes. Lip-synching is actually pretty common in parades. Definitely difficult to adjust the acoustics on a moving parade float. Although I have seen people sing live in a parade before – I just think it’s a very hard thing to get right under those circumstances.

I think she’s cute. I even thought she was cute when she was dating my next husband.

I assume she’s lip-synching?

I’ve always liked her voice, but she’s been saying her album would be “released soon” for about 17 years now, hasn’t she?

Huh’ ¦ I actually thought that wasn’t bad at all. Sounded like a cross between Pat Benatar, Kelly and Pink. Not sure it’s my thing but it didn’t sound bad to me. This is the kind of song I would have expected from Allison, maybe with a bit more bite in the guitars, but overall even though I’m not sure it’s my thing I thought it wasn’t bad.

My thoughts exactly. I won’t say that I loved it, but I actually thought it sounded good and not dated. And it’s the style that suits her, angry chick rocker.
We’ll see what other songs she has, but not a bad start.

Not the best song I’ve ever heard, but she did okay with it. And I LOVE the Philly Thanksgiving day parade. One of my all-time favorites!

I know it’s popular to dislike her, but I can’t help it, I find her kind of adorable.
