American Idol Season 8 ----SPOILERS INSIDE-----

ugh am I the only one that always hates the songs that they have written for the winners song? I didn't think that song suited either one of them and they never do. I thought the song was terrible.

No you are not. I didn't like it either. Although I thought Kris did it better than Adam. I could actually understand the words of the song when Kris was singing it. He sang it Daughtry style.

I REALLY liked Adam's Mad World song. It was even better last night than the first time he sang it. I woke up this morning with that song still in my head.
But again, I got the feeling from Adam that he is SOOO arrogant. It was like he was expecting the judges to praise him.

Oh well, it doesn't matter who wins, they will both be successful.

I wasn't able to see the performances because we got home late.
We only saw the last 5 minutes when they were giving out the numbers.
I voted for Adam 5 times because I have always liked him.

I usually dislike the final song too. They are too sappy for my taste.

Oh .... and I had no idea that Carrie Underwood sang the song at the end ... the 'home sweet home' song.
I felt stupid that I had never recognised her voice.

Either way.... they both have brilliant futures ahead of them. Danny and some of the others too.

The final song was painful to watch for both Adam and Kris. I think Kris even forgot some of the words.

I was able to get through on Adam's line about 6-7 times. It was pretty busy and I gave up after awhile.

Tonight will be exciting to watch. However, the song they'll have to sing at the end will just kill the whole show.

[Daisy and Delilah]

I agree with everybody else. The songs they designate for them are the worst songs ever. No one can sing them well. Too busy is a good description. Too many words, changes, etc. etc. That one last night was awful. I can see Kara and the gang trying to outdo each other at the writing table. They must have decided to just stick in all of their ideas instead of streamlining it better.

I can't make a call on which one I liked the best. Ugh!!

Adam's Mad World song was AWESOME!! What a talented guy. I think he may be as successful as Carrie Underwood.

[beeniesmom]

Really great show. Lots of good performances.
They were both good but I can't help but feeling that Adam deserved to win a little more than Kris.

Wow, that was a really good finale. Granted, I only watched a handful of episodes this whole season... I will even admit that I do not even know the names of any of the contestants.

I will say that I absolutely loved when Lionel Richie sang with the former idol contestant. Both of them sounded absolutely amazing.
And when the new judge showed up bikini girl... priceless!




Now I can't wait for So You Think You Can Dance! Yay!
