Danny... ouch, my ears. That screech at the end... it cracked my TV screen!!
I loved the Allison/Adam duet. I agree that I'd rather see them each perform two songs, but I thought those two were awesome together, so I dunno. It might have been worth it.
Danny or Kris should go, IMO, but with Allison's history in the bottom 3, I am nervous for her. I would personally love to see an Adam and Allison finale.

Re: American Idol - Season 8
I think Danny or Chris should go too, Chris being my 1st choice to go home. Adam is awesome, he's a cut above the rest.

Re: American Idol - Season 8
Adam was AMAZING tonight!!! I don't usually vote(haven't this season, didn't last season), but after last week I voted for Adam tonight(not that he needs AI to make it). He took a rock classic and made it his own and did a bang up job of it!!!
Allison was ok tonight but she has definitely done better. Should have done the other song.
Kris- as good as or slightly better than Allison. You can tell rock isn't really his genre. Probably will go home.
Danny-Except for the screech at the end(cracked my screen too SG!!
) He did better than Allison or Kris. He should be back next week.
Duets-Danny and Kris harmonies were great, the rest of the performance was mediocre at best.
Allison and Adam rocked the house!!

Adam is amazing!!!
I really loved the duet with Allison too.
This is tough cause I have liked Danny from the beginning but he didn't impress me last night at all.
I really love Allison's voice and thought she was great last night.
Kris seems like a nice guy but I feel he should go home. I think he has the least natural talent. He has to work so hard at getting it right.

Re: American Idol - Season 8
I don't usually read these so I'm not sure how entertaining they normally are, but I thought this was pretty interesting/funny. If you're a huge Danny fan, you might not like it, though.
'American Idol' recap: Crime-Scream Investigation
Kris and Allison get mugged by the judges, but a caterwauling Danny lands the 'Get Out of Jail Free' card for his abysmal Aerosmith cover

Ok, I kinda feel bad for the guy. People are REALLY making fun of him.
This video is a little on the cruel side.
Danny Gokey Dream On Extended Version
In all honesty though, he should have known that his voice isn't suited for rock, particularly Aerosmith and Dream On. That note at the end is hard to hit. I recovered my hearing by listening to Michael Johns version last year.

Re: American Idol - Season 8
It's ashame but like I said last night, there are SO MANY different rock bands and performers out there to choose from that Danny would've done much better with. Since he's R&B inclined, a lot of southern rock bands like The Doobie Brothers, Eagles, Allman Brothers, etc. may have suited his style more.
I did vote for the first time last night - Adam of course. I kept hitting redial.
I loved Adam and Allison's duet. I think that they should do a song together. Actually, Kris and Danny would be good together also with a song that would suit them better.

OMG my ears.

Michael Johns version was SO much better, and I was totally stunned the next night when he was eliminated.
I expect Kris to go tonight, and hopefully Danny next week(though I'd be fine if it's reversed and Danny somehow goes tonight, but I doubt it). I want an Adam/Allison finale.

What the... that was... bizarre.
I would expect nothing less from the resident high.

Probably - I think that they all do. It was a cute song.
Over 60 million votes? Adam affect?
Sorry No Doubt - can't listen to that one.

Re: American Idol - Season 8
Finally some results(was getting very bored with all that filler)
The three who advance will go to their hometown.
Kris is safe!!!!!
I'm suddenly very worried about Allison(who BTW is last on DialIdol, Kris was just narrowly ahead of her). Please let Danny go. Adam is only one deemed safe there.
Hmmmm, this is the week in Season 5 Daughtry left. Very interesting. He's also the most successful one from Season 5.

Re: American Idol - Season 8
I'll bet if Adam is still here, he's going to be one of the last two. I'm getting a sick feeling though.
I actually think that Chris Daughtry (and others) do better without AI. I like his new song.
