American Idol 2009

Wow I cant believe its finale time? It seemed to go so fast this season..
Next week will be exciting for sure.

Hooray for Kris and Adam! Danny's rendition of "You Are So Beautiful" was better last night than the previous night, in my opinion. Next week should be exciting. I'm glad Kris made it to the finale, but Adam should win this.

I was sad to see Danny go . All three have 3 different singing voices. Danny does have a future as a singer and shouldn't have a problem getting signed. The so-called experts were saying that Adam peaked early and may be in for a surprise finale .

[jillywilly65]

Wow Three songs each tonight and I thought Adam did really well with all 3 Kris did well with 1 and so so on 1 and Icky on the last (just my opinion) I think he did soooo good to make it this far and I bet he will do well and get signed anyway ? But I think Adam should be the Idol after tonight.

the last song they had to sing last night...omg, whoever wrote that needs to be slapped! really hard, it was awful!
I want Kris to win, cause een though yeah Adam can hit those high notes, yeah he can. But it seriously hurts my ears it so shrill. I can name you singers... Freddie Mercury, and Jimmy Gnecco, can hit notes like Adam can, and they sound so much better. I just dont like adam. sorry

[blueeyz]

Tonight's the night!! I love both of the contenders!

Isn't Queen supposed to appear on the show? If so, I will if Adam sings "Under Pressure" or another one that really hits the high notes....hopefully he'll reach them if he gets that opportunity.

Well it's' official I am no longer going to watch this show.

Sometimes we forget that it is a REALITY tv show.

And as i remember so vividly back in 2005 with RS, the best performer does not always win. Idol is a people's choice show and Kris is more mainstream. I think Adam is in a different league of talent than any of the other of the contestants this year. But he may have been a little to extreme for some. Sort of reminds me of the Mad Conductor. Talent beyond words.

Let us remember CHris Daughtry came in 4th. Adam is going to be a huge rockstar.

I was sorry to see that Adam did not win but I'm sure we will be seeing lots more of him.

Good Luck to Kris - he seems like a nice guy.

[blueeyz]

OMG, are you kidding me?

As much as I like Kris....clearly Adam should have won.

[rockfan]

Yes, it was quite a shock . I think alot of the Danny Gokey fans voted for Kris which helped put him on top. I actually wanted Danny to be in the final two . Kris is a talented singer but Danny has a more unique style. Adam will become a big star regardless of not winning. Look what happened to Jennifer Hudson, Chris Daughtry, etc.

RF you have a good point that I hadn't thought of and that is Kris
gaining all of Danny's voters. I get that. I know it was a reality show and it was a very exciting season too. I did feel very much like I did the night Marty lost to JD. ROB and we voted till we gave ourselves headaches and eye strain ..willingly and gladly for Marty only to have him come in second was so sad?!
You are right Adam is a very talented singer and I hope we see him make it big in spite of this loss on AI
Good Luck to them both Adam and Kris. Life sure is a crazy trip and full of surprises. Enjoy the ride.

[blueeyz]

You're probably right, RF. I tend to forget that aspect of the competition. When a contestant gets voted off, the voting dynamic changes. Duh! Having said that though...I still can't believe Adam didn't win. Oh well. He's a true entertainer, and hopefully we'll be seeing and hearing a lot of him in the future. Best of luck to both him and Kris.

[hammerfan]

I think Adam Lambert should have definitely won. He is awesome & so talented. I will buy his cd & go see his show.

[cfbj01]

I never thought of that either RF but that is probably what did happen.

I can't wait for Adam's CD. He has such an amazing voice.
