Who is the next American IDOL??

Finale

Kris vs Adam: Neither of these guys were on my radar for top 5 let alone top 2. After 5 months, I have to say they both made a difference, took their own path to where we are today. Unlike most seasons, I could careless who wins, not that I am not a fan of either, but that they are both good at what they do and did to make this season one of the best Idols ever.

Adam Lambert

1)Mad World – this was the performance that put Adam on the map. I personally wasn’t sucked in but every blogger, news article and fox special loved Adam’s original performance of this song. Tonight’s dramatic entrance was straight out of a Bootayace concert. The man is an entertainer.

2)Change is gonna come – That was not one of my favorites by Adam but I did get goosebumps – I think it was a Clay Aiken flashback. The wailer made the song his own.

3)No Boundaries – The “winner’s song” has never been a favorite of mine ever. I guess it was good.

Again, It took me forever to get on the Adam train, I tried to get off a few times. The bottom line Adam made this season – Go Adam.

Kris Allen

1)Ain’t no sunshine – Kris’ first performance of the night was throwing down the gauntlet. He was not going to let Adam take the title easily. I don’t believe I liked this performance the first time around but dude has soul tonight.

2)What’s going on – 2 for 2. Simon said it was too laid back for the finale but (I can’t believe I am saying this). Like Adam, Kris did what he does best – stripping a R&B classic and doing what got him to the top in the first place.

3)No Boundaries – What that a young Bruce Springsteen? This show is far from over. If the voting is judged on tonight’s performances…either guy could take it.

Kris was the dark horse - I didn’t see him coming. He fought hard for this thang.

Winner: Based on the season ADAM!
