    Watching Adam is like watching a drag show. Now that Danny's out, I really don't care who wins. But y'know, I think Danny will go on to big things regardless, and it may be a blessing for him not to win the way it was for Chris Daughtry.

    I agree. I keep seeing Rocky Horror Picture Show when I look at Adam. It remains to be seen what Danny will do. I can't see him having Daughtry sucess but maybe.

    ADAM wins tomorrow!!

    I wouldn't be so sure. I think Kris did a really good job and Adam turns off some people.

    Yeah, you have to remember that the finals are really the only time you can vote AGAINST someone, and I think a lot of people are going to vote AGAINST Adam, even when a lot of people will vote for him.

    Definitely either one could win.
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    I think Kris could pull off the upset because I see a lot of people that had been voting for Danny will now vote for Kris.

    As for the possible new single I don't think either one should sing it! Its too big of a song for Kris and too "pop" for Adam.

    Excellent show. One of the best AI shows ever. Enjoyed it from beginning to end.

    Kris won, and it was a shocker for me, but in the end Adam will win out. Now he can do what he wants without the contract constraints of American Idol.

    Adam was a good sport, he appeared to be genuinely supportive of Kris's winning. Both knew who can pulled the high notes better.
    I am sorry, I have no opinion on the matter. I am sure you do. So, don't mind me, I just want to talk audio and pie.

    Exactly my thoughts. And I think that is one of the reasons Adam looked so happy after the results were shared. I'm sure he already has a ton of offers.

    +1 Git down wit ur bad sef Paul.

    lol...I thought he was going easy... trying to not hurt anyone with flying debris...the way he was swinging, he didn't have anything to worry about. You notice when all were taking bows he was awkwardly, trying to figure out where to put the fretboard and body.

    How about Sir Rod? Ha ha ha, when'd they all get so old...then next commercial break on the way to the kitchen I caught my mirror reflection and realize....:(

    We thought Chris would win since it's high percentage popularity contest. Fun show though.
