    So this Christmas song is different than the one from Disney World, right ? What Christmas song did Kris sing (not aired yet) at the Bonnie Hunt Show ? And when will that be aired?

    “The Christmas Song” is actually the title of the song he sang tonight and according to tweets from that day that’s what he sang at the Bonnie Hunt Show. Unfortunately we don’t know when it will be aired. At Disney World he sang ‘Rocking around the Christmas Tree”.

    Thanks. Sorry, I did not know that ,that is the title. Wasn’t born here in the US, so I’m not familiar with all the Christmas songs.
    I need to see him sing “O Holly Night”. The one from YT with him and his guitar was really good. Did not think that he’ll hit that high note at the end, but he did a great job.

    I’m going to have to come back and watch some more vids tom. I’ve been busy *ehem* voting, while listening to some BNS on utube. I haven’t heard many of these songs very often, maybe once each. This boy’s sooo gifted and only beginning. Wow! It’s amazing where he’s come from that album (even though I really enjoy it too)!

    Also, if you get a chance pop over to the Carrie Underwood special thread for the vid of DC singing “Lie” tonight. He kills it!

    Somehow I could not open the LLWD from Chicago 12/4 posted before; this is good I think – very clear sound.

    Soooo much Kris Allen goodness!!!! You guys are super ninjas!!!
    Thanks everyone who contributed with tweets, pics, video links, itunes updates, radio adds, maps etc etc. This thread is so full of win! I wanna bathe in it and never bathe again!

  • summersnow

    LOL at the funny banter between Mama Allen and Jim. Jim should feature that as the tweetbeat of the week. Mama Allen is so protective of Jim but it makes me shudder to think that he received death threats just cos he tweeted his followers to vote for Little Rock. Why are there so many crazy pple in this world?

    On the other hand, I always feel that Mama and Papa Allen deserves huge credit for bringing up Kris for him to become humble and grounded person that he is now.

    Wow these are the clearest videos I ever seen. Picture and sound quality are AWESOME! I will leave an appreciation comment in the link to thank the poster.

  • savgal

    WOW. The videos are incredible. Almost like being there. LOVE Kris’s version of “The Christmas Song”. Cannot wait to hear mj tell what it was like in person. Gosh, the four-part harmony on GP. These guys act like they’ve been playing together for years. Whoever put this band together really knew their stuff.

  • Seeker

    “Is It Over” brought me to tears!

  • http://MJO judes

    Thanks to all who brought the videos here & to those that took them!!
    Kris & the band just get better & better. The harmonies of the 4 guys together have really improved !!
    Its funny , until Kris introduced the band I didn’t think the drummer was there – thought the drums were recorded , as he was set back so far!! Drummers need good self esteem as they are often shunted to the side or way back to accomodate the space!!

    Loved the Chestnut song with Kris’s low voice & MITM was so good & I’ll never get sick of hearing the “mashup”!!

    Should I say it or shouldn’t I ?

    Who took these AMAZING videos that Ranta12 posted? In other words who is the AMAZING Annave47′? Well, I won’t say it here, neither should you. Keep your thoughts and your thanks to Annave47 till these videos have their own thread, because I think they will! ;-) I hope you have already understood what I’m talking about or better who I’m talking about. If yes, YEEEEEESSSSSS, If no, wait and you’ll see. Of course you can post whatever you want wherever you want it :-)

  • mimi

    Hey, do any of you guys know how to get those mp3s to an ipod?

    WOW those are some gorgeous vids!!! Thank you Ratna12 for posting and Annave47 for the videos!!! These made my day already and I’m having a little tears for joy even…

  • MusicAlltheTime

    Whoa, the videos are so clear and gorgeous! Audio and video! Thank you Ratna12 and Annave47, you are awesome for finding and posting these.

    I’m so happy they played Is It Over!!! Kris and Cale, FTW! It sounded fantastic, and so did the Christmas Song, and, well, everything.

  • mimi

    Yeah I’m so jealous of those who got to see Kris last night. Is It Over was so fantastic! Kris was so talkative and cute!

  • girlygirl

    I put links to videos and MP3s in headlines thread. There are MP3s for eveything except Heartless mashup and LLWD, I think

  • girlygirl

    Also, these videos show just how good a guitarist Andrew is.

  • snlw

    New thread for Kris available now! Thanks mj!
