Top 4 Perform

Rock on Dude! I was not impressed by two people during this show. Kris Allen and Danny Gokey, and this was expected. They are not hard core rockers or performers for that matter. Allison and Adam just tore - it - up last night. Adam of course was way decked out in rocker attire and Allison finally got her hair right...!

Let's Discuss:

1. Kris Allen was so out of his element last night. He put his little twist on "Come Together" by the Beatles, but it was sooo not rock. After Adam went first anyways, everything was pale in comparison. Is he too cute to be a rocker?? That answer is yes my friends.

2. The next one up to stink on the stage was our little pal Danny Gokey. He tried to sing Aerosmith's "Dream On" and of course those last notes really only belong to Steven Tyler. (and possibly Adam Lambert had he sung it) He looked so uncomfortable... he had a very off night the entire show.Duet Time.... These two were paired up together for a little "Renegade" by Styx. Wow, it started off bad, then they finally got going. But Danny outsang Kris for sure. p.s. I liked the duets this season, it is interesting to see how they can handle the stage with another person and harmonize.

This duet really got the stage cookin'. These two sang "Slow Ride" by Foghat. Love this song, mostly because it's on the Dazed and Confused soundtrack. First off, Adam's pulling off some crazy pants, secondly, they are having fun!! It was really exciting to watch these two rockers perform. Love the boots.
3. I firmly believe that the Adam fans went into overtime to vote last night since he was in the bottom last week. He for sure is safe after singing Led Zeppelin's "Whole Lotta Love". I am not too familiar with Led Zeppelin so this was a new song for me. Of course he nailed it, and yes, he has weird facial expressions, but he is performing! Love the attitude and clothes for sure. I've been playing a lot of Rock Band lately, and this is something I would buy my character.. he he.
4. Allison is suppsed to be in the finals with Adam, they are fun to watch, they have energy, and she has not received the proper credit that she deserves. This girl can sing for cyring out loud! She sang Janis Joplin's "Cry Baby" and really rocked it. I really like her a lot and her hair is soooooooo much better this week.
Set to perform tonight are Paula Abdul (K. What??) Daughtry, and Slash.... This is going to rock!
My performance rankings after last night are:
1. Adam
2. Allison
3. Kris
4. Danny
(3 and 4 positions are tied for suckiness)

I must not have been in the mood for tonights show. I fast forwarded most of the show because I was bored. I know you are not going to agree with me but .... I am glad the person who got kicked off got kicked off. Now as I say this I have had a horrible day so maybe my mood affected my thoughts about Idol.

I was so sad to see Alison go...I really liked her and thought she was not pushed to be voted on like some of the other contestants. So there you go...Adam's got it for sure now as if there has been any doubt.

Hmmm. I wasn't a big fan of Cry baby. I thought she could have picked a way better song...Poor kris tried but it's just not his thing. You know, he could have picked 10 other Beatles songs, and not even sung them like a rocker, just made it his own, and he would have been much better off...I know lots of people think Adam is full of it, but I really felt that he let Allison shine in the duet...
