He had admitted to MTV News that "Live Like We're Dying" has been eyed to be a single for his debut effort. "[The song] was actually one that we had listened to really early on, and we kind of just fell in love with it. Everyone did," he confessed. As for the album, he revealed, "We got a couple different producers on the album, but there's a couple songs that [Frampton and Kipner have produced]. And I'm actually going to London to work with them again."
Kris Allen will release his post-"Idol" album in U.S. on November 17. For the effort, he works with The Calling's vocalist, Alex Band, and will enter studio with Kevin Rudolf in October.
