Oh, I think no matter what they are both getting records deals from 19 as will Allison and maybe Matt. Danny will get a deal but I don’t think with 19. I think Anoop, Alexis, Scott and maybe Megan will also have records within the year.

Oh whatever, FYI Adam will still be allowed to entertain even if he is not the winner, and a TV show does not define America as a great country or not.[/quote]
Couldn’t agree more. Didn’t realize the world was judging us by our musical taste.
They have both done a great job and will both do well regardless of the outcome. While between Adam and Kris, I do prefer Adam’s singing, the world will not be deprived if he doesn’t win a singing contest. He’s left his mark and will continue to perform.

WOW. If Kris wins it’s because AMerican’s are homophobes? I think that is and of itself, ignorant. Why isn’t this about talent and preference instead of people who are defensive and want to preach and whine that ohhh poorr ADAM he will only lose because of “homophobes”. OR it could happen for the reality of it that Kris is more talented. Why don’t you people who want to complain and gripe about American’s “disliking gays” go create a picket sign and do something about your whiney views instead of ASSUMING that if Adam loses it’s because he’s gay. Ugh. Give me a break people.
[quote comment="62741"][quote comment="62736"][quote comment="62720"]If Kris :heart: wins, it will be because more people voted for him. If Adam wins, same thing. Since both are good at what they do, BOTH deserve to win. I’m curious as to whether Dial Idol has predicted the winner for the eighth year in a row.[/quote]
They have Rachel. They say either could win. Can’t go wrog that way.[/quote]
True, either could win, but they are claiming that the contestant who was on top with the most votes SHOWN on their chart did, in fact, become the winner. So if Adam wins, they would be considered wrong for the first time.[/quote]
Really? Then you would think they would put there green where there mouth is… :whistle:
If they have to have the finalists sing a “victory song” – can the please find one of the classic songwriters to write it? — the online competition idea produced a dud — and now we got this “No Boundaries” thing written by Kara Dioguardi and others.
So the final round turned into whether these two unstoppable artists could take on the immovable object
First it was Adam’s turn and he fought valiantly — at first it seemed the song was too much, but then Adam summoned his deepest emotions and his best wails and it looked like Adam was going to prevail – but the song then switched to a boring key and launched another stream of cliches – and then Adam countered with an even better vocal run — and then the round ended. Both sides fought well, but neither was able to conquer the other.
Then it was Kris’s turn. This one was no contest — the song had Kris pinned to the mat within the first 10 seconds and was in full control throughout. Kris made a couple half-hearted attempts to get off the mat, but he soon realized it was futile. If Adam’s full repertoire of vocal powers couldn’t defeat it, there was no chance for Kris.
Next year — have someone like Elton John or Billy Joel write the song.
[quote comment="62740"][quote comment="62716"] But who is the best artist? — they’re BOTH extremely good — both have shown great imagination in reworking old songs and making them they’re own — both are able to tap deep emotions and connect with the audience
I would say that Kris has been more consistent with his artistry over the course of the competition, while Adam is sometimes too eager to show off his ability to wail — but when Adam combines artistry with his skills, you get “Mad Mad World” and “A Change is Gonna Come” — and I feel that Adam will be changing a lot of things in today’s humdrum music scene[/quote]

no – it is NOT a singing contest — it’s an ARTIST contest — and artistry involves more than just having strong vocal skills
Adam is by 1000 miles the best singer – he’s probably the best singer in AI history by a good margin. While Kris is a mediocre singer at best – his range is limited and his voice sort of cracks when he tries to get too loud

Dialidol itself is not working this year…so how come we have to go to idolbloglive to see the predictions???? I’d like to see Adam win but I think Kris is going to win…but Adam will be more the star..
[quote comment="62702"]This is the first time I think both should win. AI should declare a tie and crown Adam and Kris as our two American Idols.

And, since they appear to be such good friends, it’s only fitting. Anybody else agree?[/quote]
Actually we were talking last night about a scenario where Ryry says that 5000 votes seperated the two and the boys huddle and come out and tell Ry, don’t tell us who won, that is margin of error and Cowell and Fuller than come out and declare a tie – but that won’t happen since “a tie is like kissing your sister”. Americans don’t like ties. Outrage and uproar ahead.

American idol is going to lose so much credibility if Adam doesn´t win :getlost: I bet the producers are worrying a little bit. It has just hit them that, maybe, the conformism and the “I want singers that remind me of Disney movies” attitude of middle America just turned out to be their worst enemies. It is precisely the american people who isn´t treating this show as what it should be: a talent competition. Geez! I even read a comment saying that people should vote for Kris because he is a christian. Hahahahaha, so absurd.
I’m all for Adam!!!! Kris is a good singer but I find him boring to watch and might I add what a horrible song Kara wrote!!! No Boundries??? Could that be anymore sappy yuck!! :sick: I think Adam and Kris could have written one themselves! :smile:

If Adam wins, all those things will continue to run rampant throughout the world!

I kid.
American Idol is a show for entertainment purposes. The outcome does NOT define America or it’s current standards about anything.
