Adam Lambert rocks - American Idol

Last night's American Idol theme was rock, and it was easy to guess who the star of the night was. None other than Adam Lambert. He is a real rock star. He has an amazing voice, a wonderful stage control, a stunning style, full of artistry and the ability to make people jump of their seats when listening to his songs.

For this week, he has chosen one of the most difficult rock songs of all time: Whole lotta love by Led Zeppelin. I consider that a very brave choice, since the song contains a lot of notes that are extremely high and hard to reach, and it's very fast paced also. Robert Plan is a legend, and it's an uphill task to cover his song without making it sound stupid and short of breath, but Adam managed to do it, and he did it awesomely.

Last week, people were shocked to see Adam in bottom two. This week, it will be a disaster, an unreasonable disaster if such a wonderful performance still lands him in the bottom group again.






And here is the original by the almighty Led Zeppelin. Personally, I still find the original version better than Adam's cover. It may be because of the quality of the guitar riff delivered by Jimmy Page, one of the best guitar heroes in rock history, or because of the effect brought about by the mixer. Anyway, given the short preparation period, Adam is still wonderful :D

American Idol - Adam Lambert - Track of My Tears

It is simply awesome. Awesome guy, awesome voice, awesome artiest, awesome style.
This guy has the highest chance to become American Idol, unless he does something utterly stupid or says something utterly provocative, which has a grim chance, since he seems very professional and is in good control of what he should say and what he should do and is not easily taken over by nerves.

It has become a habit to come back home every Wednesday and earnestly wait for his performance and the surprise that he is to bring to us, to be amazed and surprised by his supposedly limitless imagination and inspiration.

Also, this week, we said goodbye to Scott, the inspirational blind artist who melt our hearts every time he performs on the stage. He may not be the best in the bunch, but he is an inspiration for millions of people who watch the show, to see how lucky we are and that we should do our best everyday to each our dreams, as he is in such a difficult situation yet he still does his best everyday to reach his dream.
