At first I was bummed to hear this was a cover, but I feel like Kris injects new life into this Script song. The original vocals by The Script sound like Adam Levine (from Maroon 5) and Kris's voice sounds distinct on this take. I also like that he didn't go the traditional route and release a power ballad or something safe. Instead, he went with a wordy, upbeat song that he usually doesn't do and it shows that Kris likes to take risks as an artist. The song is perfect for those moments when you're driving with the windows open and the wind blowing in your hair - it's just a feelgood, anthemic song that you can't go wrong with. People who are not fans of Idol will appreciate it, and Kris Allen fans will adore it, because the song still showcases Kris's laid-back vibe and impeccable phrasing, while also posing a bit of a challenge for Kris since it is a cover as well as an up-tempo, wordy song. Congrats Kris! Great single!Get more detail about Live Like We're Dying.
