I’m not sure who picked the opening song for all of the
contestants from the Top 10 but, it was so not the right song choice for the
finale. I understand the message that was given but, the contestants needed a
song that contained a bit more vocals than that song gave. Sorry Idol, but that
song choice sucked!
It’s so refreshing seeing the eliminated contestants perform
with actual working Musicians. Just to name a few… The Band Perry and Janelle
meshed very well together. Janelle really rocked out with them, she was so
comfortable with that band, and it was very apparent that that was her genre,
Country! I loved that ‘Idol Sabotage’ idea. It was very entertaining. (Laugh
out loud) Mariah Carey will always be the ultimate ‘DIVA’, her singing a
handful of her past hits in that gorgeous dress was perfect. Emeli Sande and
Amber performing her song ‘Next to Me’ was pretty decent. I would’ve liked to
see Amber with more of a powerhouse singer, but that performance was okay, I
liked it. Now as for Candice and Jennifer Hudson, WHOAAAAA!!! American Idol
should have prepped us somehow for that performance, the vocals on those two
together was UNBELIEVABLE!!!
American Idol was full of tons of surprises tonight, them
placing Angie with Adam Lambert singing ‘Titanium’, then to have Angie
performing with her idol Jessie J was even more of a show. I honestly cannot
wait to see Angie’s career take off, because I know with such a versatile voice
like hers, so much success is bound to come her way. After that amazing
performance yet another weird combo thrown together and worked in the
contestants favor. Kree performing with Randy Jackson and Keith Urban by her
side, along with Travis Barker on the drums was so interesting to watch. Kree
has such a promising career ahead of her in the Country world, there’s no doubt
about that.
There were a few performances tonight I would have loved to
seen instead of others, for example, I REALLY wanted to see Burnell perform ‘Ready
for Love’ with India Arie. I would have rather enjoyed seeing that performance
instead of that performance from Psy. The performance from Psy just seemed like
a waste of time and energy. Tonight was just bittersweet in my opinion.
At the end of it all Candice and Kree finally performed
together, and the results being presented afterwards. The winner of American
Idol Season 12 is Candice Glover.
And I honestly couldn’t be happier with that. Candice deserved that title. Week
after week she constantly grew, and her performances were amazing from the
start. This was Candice’s third season on the show, and she FINALLY got
somewhere with it! I’m so proud of her! I wish her and Kree nothing but
success, which I’m sure they’ll have. I can’t wait to see them soar. Good luck
you guys. : )
See you guys next season!
