Not a fan of using the save on Matt.

Next week's bottom 3 will be "anoop, lil and matt"... i Don't care if any of those go... Although I prefer Matt stay, if given a choice!

Seriously how bright will A.Idol look if one of their "better" talents has to go home next week?!

Why is Lil still on the show? :violin:

I say Lil and Anoop. Really, I wish Danny would go but I doubt that will happen this week.

That Adam guy makes the rest of the field look sad...again.

I have been thinking that its all 15-25 year old girls voting but now I am convinced. Lil is gone and Allison is in the Bottom 2 as of now.
Seriously, Matt Giraud sucks and somehow he is safe this week. And I have no idea how Danny Gokey keeps waltzing through every week with no threat of the Bottom 3, the guy is a boner. It has to be girls keeping these guys in and obviously not voting for fellow girls.

THey shot the two right this week. But what the hell was Allison doing in bottom 3. She,s good enough to finish 2nd or 3rd. Once again Adam shows so much talent. He,s going to make big bucks.

say what you want about him personally but he is by FAR the best singer this season

and as much as the judges try and hype by saying this season has the most talented... I think its one of the worst:shrug:

I agree one of the worst years ever. Without Adam there would be no reason to watch the show at all. Last year was pretty bad too but at least they had some eye candy.

For my money Gokey has consistently performed well every week - and I can't say the same for Lambert. Lambert has had a couple ridiculous weeks - none lately, though - and has an amazing voice. I think Chris has really come into his own, and does some really unique things - much like David Cook did last year.

I have no problem with all of the women being voted off this year - including red...she just does not pull it off for me, but I guess I'm in the minority with both Gokey and her. I will admit I don't know what Gokey would put out as a disk - not sure what market would work big time for him. If Lambert could do things like he has the past 2-3 weeks, I can see him being fairly big time - and also think Chris could be pretty well liked with his pop/rock stuff. Still dislike Matt, he just misses the mark for me, consistently, and is getting too much credit.

This season is all but over. Unlike the early frontrunners of Melinda and David Chipmunk, Adam Lambert has personality and a diverse fanbase. There is absoutely no stopping him.

Everyone else is playing for 2nd. Personally I think Allison has the most potential being so young and she could do Miley Cyrus stuff with the right wardrobe and a few months on a treadmill. She has an outside shot of 2nd along with Kris. Danny could get there, although I have no idea why anyone likes him and think he would be gone 8th or 9th without the backstory. Matt is dead money.

It's a done deal. Adam wins....End of story.

He would never in a million years get the rights to do one. Axl would rather die than allow that and he owns the entire songbook.

I'm sure he would do fine, but Adam is hardly the image GNR or axl projects.

axl:

Immigrants and faggots
They make no sense to me
They come to our country
And think they'll do as they please
Like start some mini Iran,
Or spread some fuckin' disease
They talk so many goddamn ways
It's all Greek to me


not saying right or wrong.....just saying

Once again Adam heads and shoulders above the rest. Gokey was pretty good tonight. I thought the others stunk up the place and could not understand the judges praising them.
I do wish they would make them stick to the theme.

I guess I'm in the minority here, but I don't see what everyone else sees in Adam.

He is VERY theatrical - which plays well on Idol. And, I'll admit, he has a very unique style, which also plays well on Idol.

Everytime I see him, I think of Adam Ant (remember the 80's folks)?

I don't see how his style, and his voice, will play on the radio. He does a lot of screaming/screeching in my book.

He very well may win this competition, but even if he does, I'll bet he goes the way of Taylor Hicks - a great performer who does well on idol, but doesn't end up selling many records.

I think the performer with the best chance to sell records will be Kris Allen. It's too bad that he probably doesn't have much chance to win.

Allison Ire-red head reminds me too much of Amanda Obermeyer - she'll be forgotten soon.

Danny - yes, he's likeable, but I don't think he's THAT good of a singer (even though he's from Milwaukee).

Love to see Kris win, but in the end, theatrics win out and Adam will win. 2 years from now, we'll think back and wonder what happened to Adam....

Kinda like the beat-boxer from a couple of years back - what was his name?

Slash is guest mentor this week....lol

singing one song each and then each of them a duet with another contestant.....wtf?


i hope axl didn't give any of the rights to gnr songs. i know he doesn't own rights to welcome to jungle, you could be mine, or sympathy for devil cover as all have been in movies and it's my understanding that they all own those.

someone is claiming adam is singing welcome to jungle, but that has to be false. i mean there's really no way. it would be comical........

supposedly 80's rock songs and 70's so who knows...... should be interesting......go allison

Duets? So I guess the two girls are together and the two guys sing together.:shrug:

Seriously though, this is perfect for the Adam, I've thought that he's nothing but an 80's rock singer from day one because of his loud over the top screaming he puts in every song.
