Adam Lambert And Allison Iraheta Rock
In another American Idol first, the top 4 finalists have to sing duets. Adam Lambert and Allison Iraheta sang "Slow Ride" by Foghat. The good thing is that they complement each other since both are basically rockers. They pull off a credible performance. Simon Cowell noted that Adam Lambert may have thrown Allison Iraheta a lifeline in these final stages of the American Idol Season 8 competition.
Things did not turn out so well for the other duet of Danny Gokey and Kris Allen. Bottom line - they sucked! But no matter, cos they also didn't do that well individually. What would be great is that both Adam and Allison advance to the finals. That's a showdown alright.
This duet thing is another hair-brained idea from the American Idol producers. Earlier on, they couldn't plan the show properly and didn't have enough time for all 4 judges to speak after each performance with the result that only 2 judges spoke. After the blogosphere unanimously derided this state of affairs, they managed to get all 4 judges to give their opinions.
