Look, bottom line is that there will never be a better contestant on Idol than Adam Lambert, and Simon is on his way out. With Adam gone, and without Simon, this show will crash and burn. And I don't care because with them gone there is nothing left for the show to do for me, and I don't mind watching it crash and burn with people who are more artist-like rather than typical pop-stars. Give me those 4 or 5 girls and those 2 or 3 guys any day playing their own renditions of songs on their guitar over anything related to a pop star or recording artist, I could care less about that. Maybe you guys are looking for a "pop idol", but I'm not into pop music unless it's from the 1980s.
