American Idol Season 8 Finale.

Our favorite American Idol rocker chick Allison Iraheta performs with Cyndi Lauper. Cyndi playing a dulcimer. Too much going on for a classic song but pretty good overall.

American Idol Season 8 Finale.

Megan Joy and Michael Sarver performed “Pretty Flowers” with comedic icon Steve Martin working the banjo. The song was also written by Steve Martin. This is the second time I’ve seen him play the banjo, the first time being in SNL. I thought it was very a very interesting tune. Megan is weird.

American Idol Season 8 Finale.

Kris Allen and Adam Lambert sang “We are the Champions” together with surprise guest band Queen!

Kris was good but this song was really made for Adam Lambert and it showed the difference between the two contestant’s voice and singing style.

American Idol Season 8 Finals.

2nd runner upper Danny Gokey performs with Lionel Ritchie on last night’s American Idol season finale.

Good job by the Gokey! He sang 3 songs which was more than most contestants did last night.

American Idol Season 8 Finale.

Adam Lambert rocked it with guest performers KISS! Sporting shoulder braces and high heels, it felt like Adam belonged. I can really see Adam doing this kind of songs and I am imagining KISS adopting this guy and making new music together.

Adam is bringing back the 80’s power vocal rock!

American Idol Finale Show.

Fergie and the Black Eyed Peas perform last night on American Idol! Wish the music was louder and the electronic voice effects were present but overall a great performance.

Meagan Joy is so weird and awkward as always.

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.
