American Idol 8 Adam Lambert “Mad World”

Adam Lambert was born in 1982 sang another of my favorite songs “Mad World” and I think it was perfect choice for him.  I was sitting on the edge of my seat near tears because I believed that performance so much.  It was incredible.  He paid attention to every detail from his hair swept to one side to the blue lighting and the amazing control he had.  Flawless.

    I saw Adam Lambert when my 10 year old daughter kept bugging me about him, saw his “Mad World’ performance…I was in total shock from his awesomeness, simply could not believe there would be Talent so HUGE as this on American Idol…if he doesn’t win, it would mean the judges are tone-deaf!

    Ever since they added a 4th judge, the show runs over.I missed the end of the duet last night because my dvr switched over to the mentalist at 9pm. I was furious. This time of the competition in all the past years, the contestants sing 2 songs. Now they only have time for a duet/// What gives? They still run short on time. I love Adam and really wanted to hear the judges comments on the duet. Hopefully I can find it on utube.

    Adam is definitely the one that keeps me watching this season. I have watched every show since the beginning of AI and Adam is mesmerizing! I can see him with a road show in the very near future and I want to be there! He is the total package and I am not in my 20′s- more in the 40′s. He is still talented and great on stage!

    No question, Adam is the next American Idol!!! If we let the 8 winner of all seasons of American Idol from 1-8, from Kelly Clarkson to all of them.. I am sure, Adam is the winner to beat all previous winners of all AI winners

    I love Adam and I hope he wins. He is truly talented. Next to Clay Aiken I think he is probably the most talented in 8 years, Oh, I also love Mwlinda Doolittle and bought her new CD which is awesome. Why doesn”t AI have her or and Elliot as guests. I was offended with Flo Rida on a family show..

    I didn’t know this song, but I thought it was really good. Adam is an amazing performer. His performances are perfect. He sticks to what he knows works for him and he doesn’t overdue it. I think he could go to the finale.

    It was an amazing performance. What was more amazing was Simon gave a standing ovation to Adam’s performance. Superstar. OMG! Watch what happened after:

    Unbelievable, although I shouldn’t even say that because I knew Adam could sing anything. I think the shock came when Simon got to his feet and gave him a standing ovation, never seen that before and Adam did deserve it. What a talent…just WOW!!
