He's just such a nice, classy person who deserves all the best and it's not surprising that a lot of people feel affectionately for him and feel protective of him on top of enjoying his music.

As for the bonus tracks, I LOVE "From the Ashes". It's an awesome, awesome song. Like, I can't even get over how much I love this song. I like it more than "Send Me All Your Angels", but only because I think "Send Me All Your Angels" sounds like a Chris Daughtry song, and I think it was a good call on Kris's part to leave it off the album, otherwise he'd be accused of trying to be Chris Daughtry, even though I think Kris sings this song well and I love the song. I think "From the Ashes" is definitely edgy and intense and I think it would go perfectly in a soundtrack for a superhero movie. I think ultimately it was probably better to leave it as a bonus track because it doesn't really go with the rest of the album. I wish Kris had reserved it for a second album, so more people can hear the song, but it's all good anyways. <strong>@Diane</strong> I love that hitch in Kris's voice! It's what makes his voice so quirky and endearing, IMO. @SarahP Oh I totally agree that Kris injects a lot of emotion into “Let It Rain”, and yes, the reason it’s such a great song is that we know what it means and that he’s talking about the struggles he went through to get this album out.

I wonder when we will ever get to hear these new tunes seeing as we haven't even heard all the "old" tunes from the album?! It would be great to hear something else on Letterman, but I doubt that will happen. I really hope The Truth will NOT be the second single. I want a co-write for him and I also don't think he sings that one as well. I really like his voice on BWCU. A lot of it is in his lower register and he's very front and center--no fighting with any production stuff. But I do agree with others that it isn't as much fun to perform/watch. So, looking ahead to the Idol appearances, I'd vote for AWM or CSA since they are crowd pleasers. I love Lennon’s In My Life!
