AMERICAN IDOL TOP 5 reviewWhen it comes to
AMERICAN IDOL, It seems
ADAM LAMBERT was the
APRIL 28th TOP 5 favorite among the
AMERICAN IDOL JUDGES and audience.
AMERICAN IDOL CONTESTANT ADAM LAMBERT performed an amazing rendition of
FEELING GOOD during the
AMERICAN IDOL top 5 "RAT PACK" night.
Although
AMERICAN IDOL JUDGE
RANDY JACKSON called
ADAM LAMBERT “theatrical.”
SIMON COWELL responded by saying “It’s like criticizing a cow for mooing.” Strange, I remember
SIMON COWELL saying something quite similar a few weeks ago comparing the
ADAM LAMBERT AMERICAN IDOL performance to a Rock Opera.
ADAM LAMBERTS song choice
FEELING GOOD was a 1966 cover by Sammy Davis Jr., but it has been covered by several other singers.
FEELING GOOD was also covered by jazz singer Michael Bublé and also by the Pussycat Dolls. Perhaps the most well-known cover of the
ADAM LAMBERT SONG CHOICE FEELING GOOD was sung by Nina Simone on her album, I Put a Spell on You.
With all those versions to pull from,
AMERICAN IDOL CONTESTANT ADAM LAMBERT chose British alt-rock group Muse, whose organ-driven version of "Feeling Good" appeared on their 2001 album Origin of Symmetry. The band, which
AMERICAN IDOL CONTESTANT ADAM LAMBERT did not credit by name on Tuesday, actually once sued Nestlé for an unauthorized use of "Feeling Good" in a TV ad for instant coffee.
Other
AMERICAN IDOL TOP 5 performances included
ALLISON IRAHETA, who turned 17 Monday, performed
“Someone to Watch Over Me.” AMERICAN IDOL judge
RANDY JACKSON said he had worried about her ability to sing this genre, being “mad young,” but, he said, “You come out here looking like Brittany Murphy, looking dope, you sing like Pink, except with like 9,000 more octaves.”
The
AMERICAN IDOL performances of
DANNY GOKEY who sang “Come Rain or Come Shine” and
KRIS ALLEN who sang on “The Way You Look Tonight,” were lack lustre at best when compared the the stellar AMERICAN
IDOL performances of
ADAM LAMBERT and
ALLISON IRAHETA. MATT GIRAUD was really not an
AMERICAN IDOL favorite for his so-so performance of
“My Funny Valentine.” AMERICAN IDOL judge
RANDY JACKSON said the slightly “pitchy” song was “a 6 out of 10,” and newbie
AMERICAN IDOL judge
KARA DIOGUARDI said he seemed emotionally disconnected. Of course,
PAULA ABDUL loved it, as that is her job, but then loudmouth
AMERICAN IDOL judge
SIMON COWELL shocked everybody by disagreeing with
RANDY JACKSON. He compared Matt’s phrasing to Nat King Cole, and pronounced him “absolutely brilliant.”
A recent rumour which has outed AMERICAN IDOL TOP CONTESTANT ADAM LAMBERT as GAY has the cyber world buzzing. Surfers have varying opinions on the acceptability of a openly GAY, BI or ANDOGINOUS AMERICAN IDOL CONTESTANT, including one buffoon who compared having a "Black" President to having a GAY AMERICAN IDOL. Stupidity aside, this is not the first time AMERICAN IDOL has had a GAY WINNER. Of course the other came out of the closet after winning AMERICAN IDOL.
So what does this say about AMERICAN IDOL CONTESTANT ADAM LAMBERT? Well, first of all, ADAM LAMBERT has not yet admitted to being GAY... he just eluded to it. Perhaps ADAM LAMBERT is channelling his own IDOL, DAVID BOWIE from the ZIGGY STARDUST days. Whatever the case, one has to wonder how this revelation is effecting the ratings of AMERICAN IDOL CONTESTANT ADAM LAMBERT. With only a few weeks to go in this season of AMERICAN IDOL, we will soon find out.
