American Idol Season 8 Finale.

Adam Lambert sings the winner’s song “No Boundaries” which was co-written by judge Kara DioGuardi.
Adam’s performance was great. I didn’t care much for the song.

Kris Allen performs the same song.

It wasn’t as great as Adam’s version. His was a little soft and not very grand but the judges agree that this song suited his voice and style.

American Idol Season 8 Finale.

Kris Allen performs “What’s Going On” by Marvin Gaye picked by American Idol producer Simon Fuller.

This was a good performance but not good enough for the finals. I thought his voice was good but the song was just too light compared to Adam’s performance.

American Idol Season 8 Finale.

Kris Allen brought back the song “Ain’t No Sunshine.”

Kris did better this time as well. Wish he would’ve sang “Falling Slowly” again but this was a good performance and Simon declared Kris winner of first round.

American Idol Season 8 Finale.

Adam Lambert’s first performance was “Mad World” - a repeat of his performance back from the birth year theme week.

He perfected this song and did better than last time. Complete with special fog and lighting effects.

Simon did not like the coat and the fog. He said it was a bit too theatrical.
