Well, its been a fun season, but this was the last performance show, so this is the last rankings thread. So sad...

Round One - Dreaded 'Repeat Song'
------------------------------------
The song choices were not surprising. "Mad Word" was Adam's best performance during the season, and he reprised it in a very goth way. Vocals were good, but I have to agree with Simon, a little over the top performance wise.

Kris also picked his best song of the seaon and hit it out of the park, even surpassing the original performance.

Round one goes to Kris

Round Two - Odd Simon Fuller Picks
-------------------------------------
Let me say this out front. I think if the songs would have been reversed in terms of who sang them, the outcome would have been more interesting. Adam gets the more 'performance based song', and nails it. Kris gets the more boring song. Surprise. I think Kris did well, but how much can one do with "What's Going On"?

Round Two goes to Adam

Round Three - The Drecky Coronation Song
--------------------------------------------
And let me tell you, perhaps the most dreckful song ever on Idol? Wow...What a terrible song.

This song DID.NOT.FIT.ADAM.AT.ALL. And for Kris they make him sing it in a key way too high for him. WTF?!

The song fits Kris much more, and even with losing some high notes, it was a much better performance.

Round Three goes to Kris by a hair.

This should be a very very close vote. Not sure what to predict.
