American Idol Finale

Adam Lambert and Kris Allen were ready to battle it out on the Nokia Theater stage. Who would prevail - acoustic rock or glam rock? The guy-next-door or guyliner? You could tell this was going to be a big night because Simon was wearing a blazer.

Di Final kali ini, Adam dan Kris masing2 akan membawakan 3 lagu, salah satu lagu dari penampilah sebelumnya, yang menurut mereka paling baik ; lagu pilihan Simon Fuller ; dan lagu baru yang ditulis juga oleh Kara. Lagu baru ini akan dibawakan oleh Sang Juara.


Lagu Penampilan Terbaik
A trench coated figure emerged from a smoky stage, and it was Adam Lambert kicking off the night with a reprise of "Mad World." The judges loved the song, but thought the performance was a little too theatrical this time.

Kris Allen's parents used to pay him a quarter to sing in public, but that rate will probably change after this whole Idol experience! Forgoing the smoke for a piano, Kris Allen sang "Ain't No Sunshine" as he tickled the ivory. The judges loved this performance and Simon declared Kris the leader after round 1.

Lagu Pilihan Simon Fuller
Simon Fuller chose for Adam to sing Sam Cooke's "A Change is Gonna Come." Adam used his entire vocal range on this song, and expressed a great deal of emotion while performing. The judges thought he was unbelievable and declared that Adam was back in the game.

The song Simon Fuller picked for Kris is Marvin Gaye's "What's Going On." Kris put the Allen stamp on the song by singing a more mellow version of the song that Simon thought was like 3 friends strumming away in their bedroom. Yes, a bedroom with an amazing sound system that holds thousands of people.

Round Two : Adam

Lagu Baru
This year's Idol coronation song was co-written by judge Kara DioGuardi and called "No Boundaries." Adam was the first to sing it on stage, and he put his rock 'n roll stamp on it. Kara was in awe after hearing someone so talented sing her song. Despite laughing at the lyrics, Simon said that Adam is a worldwide star.

Kris closed the night with a pop take on "No Boundaries." Randy thought the song suited him well, and the judges collectively thought Kris deserved to be at the finale.


While America was deciding, Carrie Underwood took the stage to sing this year's goodbye song, "Home Sweet Home." As clips from the entire season played in the background, it's evident we've come along way from bad auditions to the two amazing performers that sang their hearts out on the Nokia Theater stage.
