American Idol’s performances last night really showed who’s a winner and who’s going home. The best by far had to be Adam Lambert who was honestly the best performance last night out of the male performers. He sung "Tracks of My Tears" that caused the legendary Smokey Robinson to give him a standing ovation. Adam already shows signs of superstardom – able to re-invent himself in a little less than a week, wearing slick backed hair, stylish suit and a voice that is still amazing. He’s got the most versatility of all the contestants, by far. Simon Cowell who makes no bones about anything called Adam, “the best performance of the evening”.
Allison Iraheta with her amazing vocal chords at the tender age of 16, was the best female performance, singing, “Papa was a Rolling Stone”. She is has got to be the strongest female performer of the group. How she got to the bottom three last week, I’ll never know.
Anoop Desai did a heartfelt rendition Smokey Robinson's "Oooo Baby Baby" but whether he can continue to show artistry and originality on a consistent bases, we’re not sure. Not rushing out to download the tune for this one or any other of his songs.
Matt Giraud did well. Megan Joy has beauty and talent but she needs to find a new mentor to help her choose her songs to fit her quirky yet very contemporary style. I’m sure she’ll have a great career in the future. Lil Rounds raced through her song to her detriment and the same thing goes for Michael Sarver who has the right attitude since day one. Chris Allen was good along with Danny Gokey, but I don’t think I’m rushing out to by the CD or even download the tune.
