Week 8 (Personal Song Choice)

[Kris Allen]

*This Song Kris Will Be Using The Piano*

Title: Against All Odds

Artist: Phil Collins

Lyrics:
How can i just let you walk away, just let you leave without a trace
When i stand here taking every breath with you, ooh
You're the only one who really knew me at all

How can you just walk away from me,
When all i can do is watch you leave
Cos we've shared the laughter and the pain and even shared the tears
You're the only one who really knew me at all

So take a look at me now, oh there's just an empty space
And there's nothing left here to remind me,
Just the memory of your face
Ooh take a look at me now, well there's just an empty space
And you coming back to me is against all odds and that's what i've got to face

I wish i could just make you turn around,
Turn around and see me cry
There's so much i need to say to you,
So many reasons why
You're the only one who really knew me at all

So take a look at me now, well there's just an empty space
And there's nothing left here to remind me, just the memory of your face
Now take a look at me now, cos there's just an empty space

But to wait for you, is all i can do and that's what i've got to face
Take a good look at me now, cos i'll still be standing here
And you coming back to me is against all odds
It's the chance i've gotta take

Kris,




























this song actually fit you quite excellent! I'm impressed that you stepped up your game, when we're almost halfway it only gets harder from here.

[Akon]

Kris,



You seemed a little nervous at the beginning but you got into your rhythm and owned the song.
Keep it up! As Simon said, it only gets harder from here.
