You’ve been “waiting” for it, and now it’s here! Kris Allen’s “Waiting For Christmas” EP!

Download Waiting for Christmas at iTunes

The five song EP includes:

1. O Holy Night
2. Holly Jolly Christmas
3. Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas
4. The Christmas Song
5. White Chrismas

The Holly Jolly Christmas arrangement is super fun!  Plus, beautiful versions of “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” and “O Holy Night.”  I think you’ll like Kris’s jazzy interpretation of “The Christmas Song.”

And now for a bonus:  I took this video of Kris singing a folkier version of  ”The Christmas Song” at Mechanics Hall in Worcester back in December 2009. Blast from the past y’all.

    Downloaded my copy this afternoon and promptly burned a cd for my car. I had so much fun cranking it up on HJC! I really love what Kris and Andrew did with that song (and like others, it wasn’t one of my favs–I liked it well enough when Burl Ives sang it, but you know, it’s ok). But this version is really fun–the hand slaps, acoustic guitar and his accent! Yatda yatda da da! Love it! :-)

    Ratna: “White Christmas is sexy, like Kris whispering the song into my ears.” I’m listening on headphones now and this is so true!! Gah!

    I think I’m obsessed with these two now because they’re new, but I’m enjoying the other songs, too. A very special little EP! Thanks Kris–it was worth the wait!

    Isn’t ? White Christmas and Holly Jolly Christmas are so different and yet so Kris. I can not wait to SEE him sing those at StageIt .

    HJC is the most repeated for me though, so much fun.

     My favorite so far is still White Christmas, but yet it is HJC that I usually turn on first because its so much fun to hear Kris sing it, as well as to sing along to it!!!!!!!! The Christmas sounds really sexy how it starts out before he starts singing it!!!!! I just got up like 30 minutes ago and have listen to it twice already, Kris voice is just so sexy that it makes you want to melt!!!! I love how he sings the goodies part, on TCS!!!!! The way he sings that part is so sexy!!!!!!!

    Downloaded Kris’s Xmas EP late last night and fell asleep listening to it. It’s been on repeat this morning.  Love all the songs and must say HJC put a smile on my face.  Having Kris’s EP to listen to will certainly make the holidays a lot brighter. 

    Thanks MJ for the link to Itunes – took me right to Kris’ EP.

    I really don’t like Christmas music much, except for O Holy Night. I’m not sure why – maybe because I only hear it

    I agree that Kris makes these songs fresh and interesting – which is exactly what I was expecting so I’m not at all surprised.  Love the EP and so far I like each one for different reasons – haven’t picked a favorite yet.

    I just love this EP, from the way Kris changes up the melody, the harmonies with Andrew, and Andrew’s instrumentals and their arrangements.

    Great job, Kris & Andrew!

    Love the EP; the arrangements, his voice. Everything is just perfect like I thought it would be.  Great job.

     I will wait until it’s available on Amazon then.  The nice thing about Christmas music is that Christmas comes around every year . . .  :-D
