Kris Allen has crossed out his 2009 "American Idol" winning song "No Boundaries" from set list of the on-going Idol tour. "We were talking to the tour director and stuff, and it kinda just didn't work with the set," he explained the removal to MTV.

In replacement of the Kara DioGuardi-penned single, Kris brings The Killers' 2004 track "All These Things That I've Done" to the Idol tour stage. He sang it for the first time during a stop in Sacramento, California on July 10.

Kris will next be seen making live performances with the nine other former contestants of Idol in Dallas, Tampa, Greensboro, Baltimore, Long Island and many other U.S. cities. Beside having The Killers' song on his set list, Kris also has Bill Withers' "Ain't No Sunshine", Kanye West's "Heartless" and The Beatles' "Hey Jude".

In addition to touring, Kris Allen is also preparing to release his debut studio album this fall when his Idol pals Adam Lambert and Allison Iraheta will also drop their efforts. Kris works with Joe King of The Fray and acclaimed producers Salaam Remi (Nas, Amy Winehouse) as well as Claude Kelly (Leona Lewis, Akon) to finish the project.

dm, Adam wears jeans with holes on stage, is it ok for Adam but not for Kris? And you’re behind the times, plaid is in right now. So I guess Kris is right in fashion!

Kris should dress on stage like a winner. His plaid shirts and faded jeans are the same clothes he would wear to work on his car. Dress like your on stage performing in front of thousands.

No Boundaries was too hard of a song to sing live. Kris said its hard to sing. It stays in your upper register a long time, and its hard to breathe.

Kris Allen is an amazing, gifted, talented artist. He know how to interpret a song, make it his own, and above all DELIVER the song! There are few artists that can take a song and make it their own the way that kris does. And, might I add, he does this without any gismos, makeup, etc.. just a true artist in the making@

Nothing seems to work with the set.He is boring. Kris can not deliver as the winner. Bringing Adam out for "Hey Jude" helps save him from total embarrassment.Arkansas can have him!

bitterbert, you're showing your bitterness! Did you know bitterness is a sign of mental illness. You need to get that checked out. In the mean time, Kris is amazing and so deserved to win. Love his awesome voice and delivery.
