      I loove Adam Lambert to death… Bout time you gave him some props Perez…I haven't watched AI in years cause it sucked so bad…Still not as great as it used to be,but there's always a few talented people…and Adam along with Danny are my faves on the Show…Adam is magnificant and I love his voice a lot! loves the guy to death and thought this was his best performance thus far! :)



    7. 107

      he butchered it.



    8. 108

      Adam is freaking amazing.
      If he doesn't win this year, I'll be pissed.



    9. 109

      Really ?! I love Adam and everything but this was not original!! The original song was sung my tears for fears, but there was a more recent remake done by Michael Andrews from the Donnie Darko soundtrack that sounds almost exactly like what Adam did. Granted I like Adams version better but he shouldn't get all the credit. Simon gave him that standing "O" because he is probably comparing what Adam did to the Tears for Fears version, not the Michael Andrews version.

      he was okay
      but i dont think really none… well some of them can sing
      but most cant
      american idol really doesnt matter anyway if you get voted of and dont win you can still put out an album and still be successful
      thik of the singers that didnt win that are now very successful



    11. 111

      I got goosebumps watching him last night. He's the best Idol contestant ever. I think he will be the biggest star to come out of Idol.

      He hasn't given anything but flawless performances all year.



    12. 112

      HE'S AN AQUARIUS “` JUST LIKE MYSELF!! I LOVE THIS KID AND HIS WILD WAYS!! HE WILL GO FAR IN LIFE AND OF COURSE WIN AI!!! DON'T HATE ~~ HATERS!!!!!!



    13. 113

      All the haters on here are idiots - Adam is utterly amazing. He wouldn't know how to miss a note if someone paid him to. He is going to be a superstar.



    14. 114

      eh. he was ok. nothing special. i thought the ending was cheese.



    15. 115

      honestly i cant stand him. I watch everyweek and I just don't get it…yeah hes original and stuff but I dont think hes that great.



    16. 116

      for all of you who are bad mouthing this performance, you don't know shit…I don't care who sings the original (or even the remake of the original), when you have someone of Adam's caliber sing the song it's magic….one of the top 5 idol contestants ever without a doubt…may not win (because it becomes a popularity contest vs a singing contest sometimes), but he is by far the most marketable singer on there this year by a wide, wide margin…



    17. 117

      eww, i hate him. i rlly hope he doesn't win.
      GO Matt!



    18. 118

      Yay, Perez!! Thanks so much for posting Adam!! I'm hoping you're a fan! Obviously there are a lot of us out there!! As a professional singer, I can tell everyone that textbook, he is an incredible singer. I could list the reasons why, but it's technical diatribe. As far as being an entertainer goes, he can draw you in like no other Idol contender. Simply amazing and completely versatile. Love his pre-Idol stuff, too - search youtube!!



    19. 119

      Adam is the best the show has ever had and he did this song brilliantly. It was edgy,haunting,beautiful,strong,artsy,so unlike the vegas acts most of the american idol contestants bring. The only other one thats a runner up is the red haired young girl. Also the lighting the mood ,it was very cool,not in your face wannabe,I like his style,he has one,and he looks great, Adam is the only one who deserves to win and will get a huge record deal.



    20. 120

      He is so fucking annoying! Please don't let him win! American Idol is so shitty! The X Factor is where it is all at! Better judges and more talent!



    21. 121

      i fucking hate him
      matt giraud needs to win



    22. 122

      Wow!!!! He is so amazing!

      123

      This man is a STAR! He will win American Idol and even is he doesn't he will still go on to be more famous then any other person who was ever on the show! :)



    24. 124

      Yay!!!!! More Adam on Perez prty plz! Loves it!



    25. 125

      uhm, i could pick away at everything.
      one, he's the most amazingly beautiful person i've ever seen in my life.
      two, he has THE BEST male vocals I've ever heard in my life.
      He has AMAZING range, and his falsetto is extraordinary.
      He's going to win, there's no doubt about that. No matter what his sexual status may be, he's the best there is. No doubt.



    26. 126

      Gary Jules thought Adam's performance was beautiful, google gary jules seacoastonline and see for yourself, something tells me he actually knows what hes talking about. Adam is HIS favorite contestant. some insecure people here trying to deny that Adam is incredibly talented, but that comes with the territory of being THAT good, sometimes can be polarizing. The amount of support for Adam speaks for itself anyway, hes the real deal.



    27. 127

      pretty cool that you posted this.
      i tivo'd AI last night but adam's performance went over the time of the show so i missed it.
      what the hell fox????????



    28. 128

      Re: rachelss – Gary Jules actually did hear it, and thought it was beautifully done.



    29. 129

      Re: marnchkin – yeah he is google it. lol
      he's hot.
      check out celebslap.com they have pics.



    30. 130

      I'd love to see him do some Velvet Goldmine stuff……He's reminding me of Rhys>
      I'm sure Simon is seeing the similarity to the whole era.



    31. 131

      I CAN NOT BELIEVE HOW YOU WHO HAVE BAD COMMENTS ABOUT ADAM ARE SO TERRIBLY TONE DEAF. I HAVE A DAUGHTER WHO WAS SCHOOLED IN VOICE SO ALL OF YOU ARE CLUELESS ABOUT WHAT IS WELL SUNG AND WHAT IS NOT. HE IS SO GOOD THAT MY HUSBAND OF 30 YEARS EVEN LIKES HIM..AND HE HATES EVERYBODY..LOL..ALSO WHERE IS IT ASSSUMED THAT THIS YOUNG MAN IS GAY?..WHO REALLY KNOWS THIS ..WHY?..BECAUSE HE WEARS FINGER NAIL POLISH OR BECAUSE HE'S DIFFERENT?..ARE YOU KIDDING? I WAS RAISED IN HE EARLY SEVENTY'S AND THERE WERE SO MANY MEN WHO LOOKED LIKE ADAM…SO JUST SAYING HE IS GAY AND KNOWING IF HE IS..WELL THAT IS JUST A SHAME YOUG WOULD THINK LIKE THAT.. OF COURSE ADAM WILL BE LAUGHING AT ALL OF YOU WHEN E GOES TO THE BANK AFTER IDOL IS GONE..ME TOO!



    32. 132

      He has a lot to learn. His breathing is way too noisy, and the cracking of the voice at the beginning of some notes does not make him sound as emotional as he thinks. I never feel like I'm seeing anything special on American Idol. At least this song isn't some super-cheesy Christian-household-friendly annoyance like most of the music on Idol, though.



    33. 133

      Re: Rocking Grandma – Uhm, have you not seen the recent pics where he kiss other guys? Trust me, he is gay.

      It doesn't matter though, he rocked this version. He is so much better than every other contestant this season. There's really no competition anymore. Adam is gonna win for sure!



    34. 134

      Best male performance on Idol ever. I didn't think it was possible for me to love that song more then I already do, but that cover was even better then the original!



    35. 135

      omg i love him!! i would love to be his bff!!! hes like the coolest guy to ever b on american idol!! :D



    36. 136

      I bet Tears For Fears is peeing their pants..don't forget people…Donnie Darko sountrack would be nothing without this T.F.F. song!



    37. 137

      I love this guy so fucking much!!!! This performance was heartbreaking and exquisite. Let's hear a little more love for this fabulous man Perez!



    38. 138

      Adam will be a super star, no matter the outcome of American Idol.



    39. 139

      I fucking love him!



    40. 140

      HEY, I THOUGHT THIS WOULD REALLY SUCK, BUT I ACTUALLY THOUGHT THIS WAS PRETTY DARN GOOD! STAY WITH THE SAD AFFLICTED PERSONA, AND HE WINS. I FELT LIKE HE WAS REALLY FEELIN' THE SONG - IT WORKS FOR HIM.



    41. 141

      OHMYGOSH, i lovee adam. he's freaking hot! (;
