Week 3 [Love Songs]

[Kris Allen]

If I Fell
by The Beatles



Lyrics

If I fell in love with you
Would you promise to be true
And help me understand
'cause I've been in love before
And I found that love was more
Than just holding hands

If I give my heart to you
I must be sure
From the very start
That you would love me more than her

If I trust in you, oh please
Don't run and hide
If I love you too, oh please
Don't hurt my pride like her
'cause I couldn't stand the pain
And I would be sad if our new love was in vain

So I hope you see that I
Would love to love you
And that she will cry
When she learns we are two
cause I couldn't stand the pain
and I would be sad if our new love was in vain

so I hope you see that I
would love to love you
and that she will cry when she learns we are two.

Why Did I Pick The Song:
I picked this song because it holds a special place in my heart. I've always been a fan of The Beatles, and this song is definitely one of my favorites. Also, I think it is more the style the judges are looking for - based on their more recent critiques (whether I agree with them or not)

Edit: I would probably lower the key from this version, just a hair, to avoid doing too much falsetto.

[Randy Jackson]

I liked your performance tonight. Lowering the key was the thing to do. Even if you don't agree with us, at least you are improving.

[Kara DioGuardi]

FINALLY! This is Kris Allen music! You are VERY VERY lucky that Carrie did not sing becuase you would probably not be here. But now you should definately stay. I really loved this great job!

[Simon Cowell]
