Adam loses to Kris on Idol...reminiscent of anything?

Well, I strongly suspected Adam was gay, but I was cheering for Kris. And like Shasta, I liked them both and I wish somehow BOTH of them could have won.

optom3:
I wanted Adam to win,  :'(
I never thought I would live to see the day, when another vocalist could take a Led. Zep. song and out perform Robert Plant.
OMG wash your mouth out lady, did I just write that, :o
Bows down at the holy grail of rock gods and sings 3 stairways to heaven for penance, while repeating the mantra. there is only one Plant, there is only one Plant.
Back on topic, it may well be to Adam's advantage that he did not win, now he can choose to sing whatever he wants, unfettered by the chains of A.I. and the mighty greenback.
I look forward to hearing his amazing voice for years to come and hope that like Will Young, back in the U.K, he will have the courage to come out, loud and proud if that is indeed his inclination.
Kris is cute and can definitely knock out a melody or two, but IMHO he is not in the same league as Adam.

Brokeback_Dev:
I was so excited when Ryan Seacrest announced Kris as the winner.  OMG i could not believe it.  I thought for sure Adam would get it, but Im happy Chris did.  Chris is guarenteed a recording deal, but Adam as been approached too.  

AI gave Adam the venue to be noticed and now very famous.  More famous than Chris, but I so loved Chris' rendition of a kanye West's song.  Im not sure of the name of the song, but Chris' performance blew me away.

Katie77:
I was absolutely astonished when Kris won over Adam. They are not in the same league.

I have watched American Idol all the way thru from the auditions, and always thought Adam stood out.

On the last show, when Kris sang, he sounded like thousands of other singers, nothing unique, nothing exeptional, just a good singer. He may end up a one or two hit wonder, but unless he can come up with something special he will fade into oblivion.

But Adam, he can do anything, and puts his own mark on everything he does. I could easily sit and watch a full show of just him. He definately wont need the American Idol crown to be a super star, and Im sure we will be hearing more of him for years to come.

And, the song that they both sang, which is to become the first single........bloody awful. But no doubt, will become a hit. In my opinion it was not good enough for Adam's talent, but its plainness suited Kris well.
