I missed Idol last night so I watched the performances on the net.Kris is good,clean and has much potential but I feel he is limited as a performer.Adam on the other hand is Very versatile...not solely on his singing but also as a performer.If I myself was in the business I would place my money on him with no reservations.Such quality of his range as a whole is exceptional.I personally stopped watching the show when Fantasia won....but I'll keep those comments to myself.However: my roomie had it on one night and I heard Adam sing,well.....I wasn't a faithful watcher this season but I gotta tell ya.........Adam is TALENTED!!!

This week is going to be tough. In all honesty I'd like to see Dany Gokey go home. I'd like to see Adam, Kris and Allison. But from there it's really tough to say who is my favorite. Kris Allen has really grown on me and I think I'd actually like his style of music. Adam is great but a bit over the top and dramatic. Allison is also top notch, but I think she'd be too much like Kelly Clarkson. Should be a good week!
