I think you guys are letting ur cock rule rational thought. did u see the segment on chris where they were cutting between him singing and then they used the glen hansard original of that song for the music under the video of him going home? it made me cringe.
AI is like walking into your local 7/11 and culling for talent. it's tru by comparison you'll find ONE that's better than the rest, but that doesn't make them great. the only thing that floats the winner's career (briefly) is the HUGE amount of money they pour into promotion. It's all marketing, from the auditions to the finale.
but i guess when the so called legit music industry is dominated by crap like the jonas bros, the bar is pretty low to begin with.
Well I am 100% so my dick isn't doing any thinking for me. My mind is, and my mind has told from day one that Adam Lambert possesses talent like no one else on the show has ever had, or ever will have. I don't think I've ever witnessed someone with such a powerful combination of stage presence, confidence, vocal control etc. I mean, what American Idol contestant is going to pick Mad World, and make it better than any previous version? (greatest song ever)
It has never really been a debate about who is the best this year; to anyone who knows anything about singing and music, it has been Adam. It is only about whether or not America is truly able and willing to vote for someone like Lambert to win the title (sound familiar don't it?). Kris has been showing since he did Bill Withers way back that he was in this for the long haul. He is the safe pick. He is the pick that scared Americans will make when choosing. Adam represents a whole lot more than some vanilla wafer cookie cutter typical American Idol guy does. Someone who, from day one, has never doubted who he was or hid who he is. Eyeliner, nail polish, whatever. "Here I am America, love me or hate me, get used to me".
He will be the most successful Idol of all time in the end in my opinion. Slash offered him a spot to be the new lead singer of his band. HELLO? He is a ROCK STAR. Daughtry is not one of those, neither is David Cook. They are wannabes compared to this guy.
Don't let the whole American Idol stigma fool you. Some people on this Earth possess extraordinary talent; they only need to find the right vehicle or platform to show it.
And whoever thought Lil should be in the finals must not have watched past the top 36 performances, she got worse and worse every week and she picked the most stupid songs.
