American Idol 8 Final 2 Discussion

ROUND #2
Adam performs A Change Is Gonna Come and Kris performs What's Going On.
For me, Adam's song choice was weird. I don't know why.. i think i expected him to sing some melo tragedies song to boost up the mood and atmosphere of the place with his voice. But he sang it GREAT.
And Kris.. light-hearted, extremely well sang.. BUT, it definitely wasn't appropriate for a night like this.. and not his fault fully because Simon Fuller chose the song..
Second round IMO, was a tie because both songs were weird choices IMO. But if i have to choose.. ADAM wins!!
DONG DONG, third round up next!

ROUND #3
No Boundaries, what are your takes? People said it was sucky, but i actually thought i really liked it and it was really a very good and nice song to hear.
Adam's rendition was very dramatic and although he sang the song well, there was no feelings within.
Kris's rendition should have been ONE KEY lower, and he would have NAILED the song and won the night.
And it's true, the song sounded WAYYYYY better on Kris. I believe America can hear that and it's without a doubt that even though it was not a stunning finale performance by both artist.. but just based on the last song, i believe that since it sounded better on Kris.. it would propel Kris for a win.
With that, i'm making my prediction that Kris Allen would win just base on the last song. He went off pitch 4 times, but the song definitely sounded so much better than Adam's one. And i could see him make a hit out of the song.. like Inside Your Heaven, This Is My Now, I Believe and A Moment Like This!

I predicted it would be close.. but I never thought it would be this close. Every other year that I can remember, Dial Idol has predicted the winner using the green button. "Not predicted to be voted off." This year they have Kris leading but still in danger of losing because of the margin of error.
About the third song. I didn't care for it much. I thought it didn't suit Adam's voice or style. It was better suited for Kris and for the most part, he sang it well.
It was a GREAT finale!

I am just now beginning to be able to get through for Adam consistently. Maybe the kids are in bed. (But I bet Tory and Pledge are voting as fast as they can for Kris!) ;)

Ummmm :-[ Yes I Was !!! :waves: Kris's lines were also very busy. I would get lots of busy signals and then get through a bunch and then back to busy. Yes, I want Kris to win :hearts: but if Adam wins I will OK because he is a fantastic singer/performer also.

It looks like Kris might just win it all.. Between you and Tory, I'm sure you outvoted me. :lol: She's probably still asleep! ;)
I'm OK with either one, they are both going to be successful, no matter who wins AI. :tup:
