It really adds to the thread and I think I fnally got the point. I didn't know Adam was a homosexual.
BTW I was officially identified as the AI troll on the troll thread running tonight. See if you can find the reference. I guess being a troll means some bad guy comes along and criticizes you and doesn't kiss the ring.
Danny was off on his first song, but his second was one of his best. He finished strong.
I thought this was Kris's best night. Simon was wrong and off point by criticising the judges for the song choice and then not arranging it for him. It was a distraction and I think he was trying to demean Kris.
I thought Adam was great in his first song. Quiet and soft at the beginning and end. Some of what he brought in his great ballad performances earlier in the competition. I agree with some to the "screech" callers on the second song. However it was rocker style and he can go on tour with many of the major bands if they wanted.
Adam consistently out performs the other two. They're just not in his league. Singing pipes, Adam should win it all, but as I said before it's up to the teeny boppers and people like some here to see who has the best speed dials.
As we've said before on the thread, it's not a singing competition, it's a popularity contest. We'll see if the teenies or the anti-gay vote wins out.
Adam is the next Steven Tyler...Definite Rick Star
But my fav has always been Danny Gokey..I like the sounds of Old Motown and he sings like that...
I’m with you nufsed on this one. All of them are really impressive, no doubt they would not have gone so far.
Yet, Adam is the one who, to me, really stands out. I have seen a lot of Danny’s, they can sing. But Adam, wow, he’s going to be something special once given the chance to cut an album.
Kris was super tonight. As much as Danny has a likeable persona, if I had to pick the next one to go, sorry it would be Danny.
Now, my wife knows where’s my head on this, and she’s a Danny “fan” so she doesn’t like my message. Yet, Adam really is special, and come on, get real. Let’s think about it in terms of releasing a cd. Who is the one that you can best imagine delivering a cd that could even possibly become classic vinyl?
Kris, would have a few selective “hits”.
Danny - he would a deliver a “ok to play with company around” cd.
Adam ... bingo ... classic vinyl. Potential for history.
That’s the difference. Not a few selective hits, but potential for history. If he had a band, it would go to the top.
Sorry, but I got to put in my five cents one more time - Adam can close the deal with “Stairway to Heaven”. But it could all come down to which song is picked. Wrong choice in the song ... can ruin it all for you.
But I think Adam isn’t that stupid. He will probably make the right choice at the right time .... he will think about it, and make the right choice whatever he decides.
Other point I want to say, I thought Adam did a class act when he praised Kris and Danny tonight. I just like the guy. He’s a class act.
Since you posted this to (all) I feel entitled to respond. Far more than just being a singing competition, American Idol is a contest to find the American Idol. And most folks idea of an American Idol is a male who makes love to other males.
