Greyson Chance is getting his music career rolling with the release of his first single, Waiting Outside the Lines.

The 13-year-old singer, who was signed as Ellen DeGeneres' first artist to her record label eleveneleven, performed the ballad on today's The Ellen Degeneres Show.

Greyson had this say about his new single:

    “The song comes from the heart and I hope and pray that my fans can use it to 'escape' from all the pressures of life. I can't wait for everyone to take this journey with me."


The teen was first discovered on YouTube after he covered Lady Gaga's Paparazzi. That powerful school performance was an internet sensation ... earning him over 32 million hits.
