Top Two!

I can't believe I haven't been on here sense the top 5! AHHHH!
For the record, I was sad that My boy Matt went home. After that, I'm glad Allison left, even though it was her best performance of the year she left on... (just like matt the week before!) And Then it was time for Danny to go, He had peeked too early, and i just can't see him be a good recording artist... call me crazy.... Speaking of Crazy, how awesome was Kris on "Ain't No Sunshine!" ... the answer... really awesome.. thats why its my favorite, but for some reason no one has been posting good videos of performances as of late.. so i'm stuck just directing you to youtube!
so click the link.... here and it should bring you to youtube so you can watch Kris hit it up!

Anyway, before I start on tonight I should really reflect on my thoughts of the season, I love Idol as much as the next fan crazed tween girl.... but this season seemed lack luster, from the contestants that just fell flat (like Anoop, Lil Rounds, Blind Guy, Jorge.. and so many others) to the fact that the mentors weren't that good (what was Quinten talking about when he was on the show?!) To the lip syncing that got out into the press (on the results shows, the group songs) to the fact that Paula is still drunk, Kara's opinion has yet to matter, and Randy seems to be off target more then ever.

however, with all that said, we got some pretty cool moments.
Namely: Kris's 'Heartless 'last week, and his 'Ain't No Sunshine'... both times he did it.

Matt Girauds "my Funny Valentine' was unreal... Simon said he sounded like Nat King Cole.. LEGEND! And Matt's Performance of 'So Smal'l by Carrie Underwood was pretty spectacular.

Adam was more original then anyone we have seen.
I still feel that if this was 1980's he would be a a world phenom by now, but its 2009.... but he is still pretty sweet, he has more control over his voice then anyone i have seen, and although he seems a bit cocky he also seems like a cool guy, his performaces of 'Tracks of My Tears' is still stuck in my head and 'Mad World' of course was great.

And let us not forget that lovable songbird that was Megan Joy! Her "Walking After Midnight" Was Phenomonal! She should be a star, adele, Colbie, and Megan Joy.

Our favorite Glasses wearing Jesus Freak had a couple really good performances, the only one that really stands out is the time he did Rascal Flats "What Hurts The Most" , fantastic job.

So good season... better then last year? Nah, more talent last year... but you know what, Idol is still awesome.. so how bout that finale?

Three Songs -
Pick your Favorite, Producer Pick, and Kara writes you a song... So Here We Go..

Pick Your Favorite :

Adam - He goes first and sings "Mad World" again, which is a great pick because a lot of DVR's cut off the performance, it was more quieted down than last time i think, i also think he went way over the top... the fog... the trench coat... i dunno... That stuff won't make me buy his record, but his voice sounded great.

Kris - Sang 'Ain't No Sunshine' made some small tweaks that made it better. was on stage with a grand piano instead of a keyboard, was alone on the stage this time, really awesome job. Best of the season by him, great time to step it up. The judges agree and Simon says Kris won round one!

Producers Pick:

Adam - He sings 'Change is Gonna Come' by Sam Cooke, and this was my favorite of his of the night, maybe of the season, he had it chill AND rocky, I don't believe he has ever mixed those two like he did. Maybe not the BEST song choice by the producers, but he did an amazing job... I was scared for Kris.

Kris - He sang "What's Goin On" by Marvin Gaye, which i Love! And I'm sure the people back when he wrote it for the Vietnam war loved it too. Maybe NOT the best song pick either, Kris made it real chill, he had a band onstage with bongos and the whole deal, he played guitar this time... which is cool to change it up. I would buy this single, but the judges felt that it wasn't BIG enough for this stage... I love that he stayed chill.

Kara's Crappy Song:

Kara Wrote this song called No Boundries and both singers had to sing it. The judges didn't talk about their performaces too much. It seemed too low for Adam and too high for Kris but Kris made it sound better, Kris' sounded more like a song we would hear on the radio. But just like last years single by David Cook "Time of My Life" wasn't right for him, this song seemed uncomfortable for both these guys and I hate that one of them will have to sing it for the next few months before their own CD comes out...

So here we go! I think Kris will do better as a recording artist in my opinion, because Hair Bands are no longer big so Adam has to really do this on his own, so we will see.

Runner Up - Adam Lambert

Winner - Kris (upset) Allen

Woooot!

We'll See,
My Favorite won Dancing With the Stars and she was an underdog so hopefully...

Enjoy,
