Simon slammed Allison for ‘sounding like’ Joplin and not changing it up, making it original. Did Adam change Whole Lotta Love up, or make it original somehow, that I missed? Or was he a sound alike, too?
No, you got it right. I even pointed out to Mrs. kevkrom after Adam sang that he'd be given a pass on it while the judges slammed other contestants for doing it.
I wouldn't call it a slam really. Simon said he meant it as a complement.
