American Idol Finale

Adam Lambert vs Kris Allen.

Adam definitely has a stronger vocal cord than Kris. But that doesn't mean Kris is second-class quality.

From the comments in youtube, people descirbed Adam's voice as 'throaty', sort of like a shadowy tune behind his normal voice, which is quite uplifting for all the songs that he sang. But, sometimes I felt he was actually screaming through his high notes. Maybe, I am not so used to that kind singing. But I definitely applaud his ability to hold a note for so loooooong. His must have had a massive lung volume for him to scream....err...I mean hold the note for that long, it's at least 10 seconds (from 1.23 to 1.33 of this video).



People are saying that Adam is a gay and doesn't deserve to win. I think people shoudn't mix a competition with a person's personal life. There is not link whatsoever between those two. So what if that person is a gay, but does has a good voice?? Does that mean he don't deserve to win??

Comparing between Adam and Kris, I think they are both good in different ways. Adam has the 'throaty' voice to 'support' his songs. Kris' voice has the smooth, silky feeling that gives a rather comfortable, relaxing atmosphere.
I would say that they will survive in different kind of music industry.

Check out the pre-finale performance by Adam and Kris!
