Kris Allen Uses Music to Express Himself

Kris Allen and Adam LambertAmerican Idol winner Kris Allen says his emotions are visible in his music.

The singer — who shot to fame on the smash hit US TV talent show — says he uses songs to show the world how he feels.

“I’ve been writing for probably six years or so,” Kris told E! News. “I love writing music. It’s the way that I express how I feel because I’m not a man of many words.

“I’m not very expressive or emotional or whatever, but it comes out in my music. And that’s kind of who I am. I don’t know how great I am at it, but I think I’m getting better.”

“I felt like I did exactly what I wanted to do on the show that I would want to do on a record,” Allen said of his forthcoming CD.

“I mean, maybe stray a little bit on some of the stuff. When I went on the show and I did ‘Ain’t No Sunshine,’ I felt that was the kind of stuff that I wanted to do, stuff that kind of moves people and has that feeling.”

“The only thing that I really want to do is just be respected in the music industry,” he added, “”And whether that means selling albums or winning Grammys or people just liking your music, that’s what I really want to do.”
