Well we get to do it all over again .. with Disco no less
Don't forget to pad those recordings. We went over last week with only 2 Judges per contestant and I'm not sure they are going to do that again. It's currently scheduled for 61 minutes and I wouldn't be shocked to see 65 or more minutes.
To me that depends on what you mean by "best." He's been the most consistent, in my view, and that's a good thing. He's also very experienced on stage and can do amazing things with his voice. Allison is also experienced on stage but not in age. She can also do amazing things with her voice. She's not as consistent as Adam week in and week out but her raw musical talent is, for me, best in show.
I pretty much agree with everything you wrote. I think Allison has the talent best suited for a long term career, but she hasn't had the kind of show stopping moments on the program that Adam has had. It's almost like talking about what college basketball or football players will succeed professionally. Even though they're technically the same games, some skill sets translate better than others.
With Adam, I've begun wondering whether we are almost seeing a Carly Smithson in reverse situation. Ignoring her past major label history, that woman could sing. However, the only time, for me, that that really came through was during the group sing alongs on Wednesdays where her voice towered over everyone else. During her actual performances, in spite of all that talent, she rarely seemed to be able to connect with either the song or the audience. She just didn't have that "it" quality that make people stars. Adam does amazing on the show, but maybe the reason he hasn't made it before now is that outside the confines of a talent competition he doesn't have that "it" quality either.

Agreed, though for me "I Can't Make You Love Me" was just beautiful and with power in reserve still.

That could be. I don't know if Adam has the "It" quality or not. He sure seems to on stage in this competition. I liked Carly best of all last year but she did have trouble connecting to the public. Maybe the same problem for Allison? Carly and Michael Johns were probably also hampered by the fact that they were a little too Irish/Australian to win an American contest. Allison may be a little too Central American? Just as an additional note about Allison, it also strikes me oddly when people talk about her not being likeable, etc. Personally I think she's adorable.
Well, it's almost time for Rat Pack night. Let's hope there are some great performances tonight, no matter from whom.
