Anywhere there's a Strip Joint
After a good performance by alot of musicians the show was a let down with Kris Allen winning. He couldn't even sing the finale, his voice was breaking all over the place. He always needed songs in his comfort (safe) zone, but Adam could sing anything.

It's okay though, because Adam Lambert will have no problem landing a recording contract.

Adam could sing anything as long as he was screaming at some point. I thought Kris deserved to win and was solid all the way through. The finale song sucked and was written by Kara, even Simon said (or started to say last night that the song sucked lol) I couldnt stand Adam and most everyone i talked to said the same thing. Not one person said they would buy an Adam Lambert cd. but hey im old. The show was great with some really solid guest artists. Fergie though was not as hot as i thought she was
 
Yeah the screaming was his theatrical side, if he toned that down he could do an excellent album.

You have to admit Kris' voice really showed limitations at times...he was actually pushing it.
 
Tatiana runs on stage! :D

btw it was cool to see Kiss play there
 
I thought it was a let down also. I bet you it was fixed due to the fact adam was obviously the better singer and was going places even if he didn't win. I bet they fixed it so kris would win, to help him out.

I missed the kara show, she damn hot IMO

I just watched the video, wished she would've shown more :)
 
is Kris the one with eye makeup or is that Adam. I caught about 2 minutes of Idol this season.

Adam should have won because of talent and stage presence.
Maybe Allen got the teeny bopper vote.
Agreed!

Exactly, Adam is basically guaranteed a contract. Shit, he could have fit right in with Queen tonight. (Paul Rodgers has left so they need a singer.)

I recorded it so I have to watch Kara in slow motion. :D
 
and 18 months from now he'll be lucky if he's singing the national anthem at arena football league games.
 
In a year from now, no one will remember Kris except his family and friends while Adam will have a thriving career.
There was a lot of controversy around Adam being gay and the american folk not voting for him because of it.
Bullshit if you ask me.
 
I thought they both sounded good. Kris just has a more mainstream sound while Adam probably has the better talent.

The entire show last night was great (except for the groups songs where they brought back the latin gay caveman guy...man is he scary). Rod Stewart was a little scary...thought he was going to break a hip but he still sounded pretty good. KISS...Not enough makeup to cover up the fact that they are now late middle aged and fat. Bikini girl...blech. Cara the judge in a bikini...boing! Santana...son of a bitch sure can play! Just a great show and I really didn't care who won.

Kris' wife sure hit the jackpot though. What's the over or under on how long that marriage will last?
 
The Right Guy Won

Adam had a problem. It was always going to be a hard sell to the general public for this guy to carry a concert. He would have been like a bad movie that you want to leave half way thru. Oh sure.... he dressed up nice... was a little eccentric, and could sing. But he could only entertain thos e young people who would go to hear the 'neighbour boy' play at a local pub.

But Poll after Poll after Poll suggested that people would far sooner go and sit thru a Kris concert than an Adam concert.

I was one of them...I could not see myself buying an ADAM concert ticket...as talented as he was on TV.

And the voting bore that out.
 
Adam was the most entertaining by far and has a great voice for rock a la Freddie Mecury ( same sexual orientation too I think- probably cost him a lot of votes in mid-America). Chris Allen was a joke.

I think Idol just jumped the shark with that vote.
