For Ladyinred

[lara]

They give him a boring song and then blame him for it being boring.

[TonyWpi]

Exactly!!

I hope it backfires on them! I though Kris did well with the song they gave him but you just knew they were going to pimp Adam with it.

[retrokitten]

That was Eddie Murphy.

[jennyjenny]

Yep. Kris plays, makes and sings music. Adam performs with the assistance of flashing lights and fake fog.

[clamper1797]

What DirectTV channel number are you on ... I’ve got FTA

[nufsed]

Is this the weakest finals night in quite awhile? They better rock the house on their last songs.

[Majie Purple]

I know...right? The nerve of Randy!

[maggief]

“Her dad is a lawyer.”

I hope he’s a good one. Her husband has the CO$ legal crew behind him ... literally.

[lewisglad]

Michael K is hilarious... :)

[I'm ALL Right!]

Are we surprised that Simon Fuller was trying to give Adam the upper hand?

[TurtleStink]

this two songs didn’t change anyone’s mind.

if you like adam you liked his
same for kris.

his wife looks too too cute tonight. better than the so called movie stars in the audience.

[Lil'freeper]

If this AI thing doesn’t work out for Adam, he can gueststar on that new show “Glee”. dontchathink?

[nufsed]

388 Fox NYC. I had network feeds east and west because of weak local signal 10 years ago. When I moved they let me keep it.

[LA Woman3]

Who is going to host the “Glee” live thread?? /sarc
I am so sick of the promos for that show!!

Round 2

Kris Allen

Simon Fuller's choice for Kris is "What's Going On".

"War is not the answer ..." Let's shake hands with third world dictators, apologize for America and other Hopey-changey bullshit.

He performs with an acoustic guitar, seated with three other guys playing bongos.

Randy: We got ourselves a real live competition. Song for the times we're living in. A little bit light for this big old room.

Kara: You've been true to yourself from day one. I like Simon Fuller picked a socially concious song. Makes people think, makes people change. [VOMIT!]

Paula: Made Marvin Gaye proud!

Simon: Loved the song, but if I'm going to be honest it was like three friends strumming along with Marvin Gay in their bedroom. Sorry. Too laid back.

Seacrest asks Simon who won Round 2.

Simon: Oh a million percent Adam, Round 2.

[maggief]

Recently. :)

He’s not handling the divorce, but supposedly gave her advice. At the very least, someone in Katie’s family REALLY hates Tom and is feeding Blind Gossip this stuff. LOL

[Fu-fu2]

I’m thinking the same, as I’m sure alot of others are. The producer of the show Simon Fuller picked the songs. I thought Kris’s version sounded like a song I would like listening to on the radio while driving in my car. Adams songs—if you just listen and don’t watch—sound like Broadway. I don’t listen to stuff like that.

[silent_jonny]

I expect Kara’s song to be junk

I really hope so. I hope it's laughably bad.

[nufsed]

I think Adam is better, but I think Kris was great last week and beat Adam on round 1 tonight. I think the memory of Gaye’s version put Kris way behind for the second round tonight.
