Philippine Singing Competitions

'No Boundaries' no more!

Posted: 10 Jul 2009 03:20 PM PDT

The Idol Season 8 winner's song "No Boundaries" will be taken off the Idols Live tour! Yehey! I don't like the crappy song anyway.
[report] Kris-Allenrgtour If there was one uneven note in this week's tour debut, it was the same one that caused a fair amount of choppiness at the end of the Season 8 competition. In each year's Idols Live tour, the winner's song has been a fixture of the champion's set. In recent years Jordin Sparks and David Cook scored noticeable blips on the sales charts with "This is My Now" and "Time of My Life," respectively, and rolled out those numbers on the road.

However, in Kris Allen's headline at the concerts thus far, the season's victory song, "No Boundaries," written by judge Kara DioGuardi, has stood out as a bit of an odd duck among the other numbers, which were uniquely chosen for and crafted to Allen's intimate, soulful style.

Reviews of Season 8's finale show widely trashed the victory number and the chilly reception has followed "Boundaries" onto the road. In reviews of the tour, "Boundaries" has been singled out as a misstep, generating a tepid crowd response compared with the other numbers.

The tour's producers have been listening to the sound of few hands clapping. Starting tonight in Sacramento, "No Boundaries" will be disappear from Allen's set, according to sources with the production.

A new song will take its place in Allen's set down the road later this week.
