    My daughter shares a b'day w/ Kris; she's 25 today. He's such a great actor/singer. My favorite KK song is Why Me Lord. My favorite KK films are Convoy, A Star Is Born & Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore.

  • I've loved Kris forever. Bought all of his albums and when I wore one out I bought it again. Love the way he sings. He's the best songwriter in the world in my opinion.
