"Who is going to win?" |
An all male F3. An AI first. Who's going to win? And while we're at it, who is your pick? They may not be one and the same.
Producer's pick: Adam before the show even started last summer
Never been in the bottom 3, ever pick: Danny Dark horse pick: Kris Google trends pick: Adam Adam, Danny, Kris worldwide: http://tinyurl.com/q6xg79 Adam, Danny, Kris, US: http://tinyurl.com/qjpls9
And how does Adam compare to the winners from the past 5 years?
Worldwide: http://tinyurl.com/rcvh9w Adam vs. past 4 years' winners (Carrie, Taylor, Jordin, David), US: http://tinyurl.com/pmjl8y
Adam's peak on Google trends is from when he sang Mad World on April 7 and the show ran long and most DVR's didn't get the performance. AI did him a favor by running over, it appears.
I've been wondering if there is any way the finale could be Kris/Adam (or Kradam). After looking on the web, I'm thinking that's still just a long shot, no matter how hopeful I get. Does anyone think Kris can make the F2? I think the voting base for Danny is locked in, despite any type of Danny performance on Tuesday. He'll probably say something about his voice being shot from last week's scream or having to sing so much on hometown visit day. Plus, VFTW is voting Danny now. So, as much as I want Kris to make the F2, no matter how well he sings, I don't think he'll get much from the judges to help his case. And that means a Danny/Adam F2...and if that's the case, Adam for the win and Adam's the one I want to win.

3. "RE: Who is going to win?" |
My Season 8 idol journey.... (LOL)From auditions, I knew Danny and Adam would do well. I had high hopes for Lil, Anoop and Matt also from Hollywood week. Then out of nowhere came Kris Allen..... "Man in the Mirror" from the top 36 was the first performance that I remembered seeing from him. I liked it but was a little shocked that he was in the top 3 (Adam and Allison were the other two) because of his lack of pimpage from Hollywood Week. I thought Jesse or Megan would have grabbed #3. But it was cute little Kris that landed himself in the top 12 (sorry 13). Kris has been the dark horse all season long. He has slowly gotten better, IMO. He has picked great songs, great arrangements, and has never really fallen flat. I think he has a mega-fanbase in the midwest (where I sit) that could possibly pull a top 2 for him. If he does his song stripped down with just him and the guitar, he will be top 2. And stay humble!! It's endearing - no one likes a puffed up snooty guy who claps for himself. Adam has been consistently good because he IS good. He set the bar so high early on that he really couldn't do any better - his journey has been all about how the public has perceived him. People have tuned in to see what was going to happen next with him (like it or not). I think "Track of My Tears" was a turning point for him (was for me) - and then "Mad World" sealed the deal. If he tones it down on one of his two songs, he'll be in the top 2 for sure. However, most of the people that I talk to around here (co-workers and friends) do NOT like him and do not want him to win.
Danny peaked early on and has fallen steadily for me. I even have a sigpic with his picture on it that I haven't posted in a LONG time.... A lot of people were put off by the backstory (not me), which may or may not have been his doing. A lot of people I talk to think he is smug and entitled and do not want him to win as a result. I think he will be another Ruben if he wins. He'll most likely make a gospel record because that's what he knows and that's probably the genre where he belongs (he's most comfortable there). I predict that he sings a gospel song as his pick. If he does, he may not make it to the top 2. Simon will call it indulgent or something like that and seal his fate... This is why I don't want him to win. I have watched some interviews with him saying he has struggled with song choice because all he knows is gospel. While there isn't anything wrong with that, that genre is not what idol's are made of. So the folks around here would love to see Kris win. Do they vote? They haven't yet, but maybe on finale night! I am hoping for a Kradam finale because I would buy a record from either one of them. I also think either one of them would fill an arena too. They both bring something different to the stage and I like them both - and I think they are the best and DESERVE the final 2. So I'll be voting for Kris this week hoping to see him on stage again the next week! Who do I want to see win? Anyone but Danny. I think Adam will win but wouldn't it be cool to see Kris win it all?!? I do.

LAST EDITED ON 05-24-09 AT 09:17 AM (EST)WTG, Doodlebug! You called it all! Danny put a gospel-ish section into YASB. Kris did the stripped down performance. "Heartless"! Adam sailed through but did not follow your advice about toning down one of the songs in the F3, but they only sang two songs this year, not three, at this stage. He did reprise "Mad World" at F2, though. So maybe he belatedly took your advice. ;) We got the Kradam finale. And it was cool to see Kris win.  You rock!

After having read America Loves American Idol
I think that Adam will win - and Kris should come in 2nd
because he reminds me of Archuleta - so I would think
that Danny is going home this week.

in a recent tv guide, I recall Simon saying Danny would win...Danny would have only an American following but Adam was a world wide star

16. "Going all out" |
Simon really, really doesn't want Kris in the finale.Maybe he gets a bonus if the finale is Danny-Adam. From Mjsbigblog: "Simon Cowell tells Brian Kilmead of Fox and Friends that he wants Danny Gokey in the final with Adam Lambert because Kris Allen is not a good enough singer to compete with Adam." She's posted the video. I don't have the time or stomach to watch it right now.
The logic of that critique is so flawed. This after Danny stunk up the stage last week.
Sometimes I just hate this show.

I watched it. I was kind of worthless really. The comment was so unfair to Kris.

A female was to win. It has gone female , male since the show started.
I wanted Alexis to win.
She was young and hip and as the Judges kept saying
"SHE CAN SING".
