Well, I like them both. I would be happy either way. It was apparently very close.

I don't want to go off topic, but I really thought the reason she sounded so much like MJ was that she was lip synching to an MJ-recorded vocal track. Oh and congrats to Lee.

Costa, how do you know he was only asked 2 weeks ago?? Not going to judge what I know nothing about beyond saying the obvious that it's weird that ALL other Idol would manage to be there but him. They ALL have super busy schedules and commitments. Well I hope both Lee and Casey can get someone to work with them to get over their stage nerves. The Idol tour may do both of them a lot of good! Glad the show was so good, cause the results were pretty anti-climatic for me

I'm happy for him. He was very emotional.

Yes, I should have added that the crying was making his singing even worse. It ended exactly at 10:07.

LOL yup Mak the crying didn't help his vocals AT ALL!!! And Tish, Janet did esp sound like MJ tonight huh?! Prisoner, did Ryan say it was a close vote? Cause per DialIdol, Lee had a big lead, which I didn't understand at all.

Yes, Maineiac, at the beginning of the show Ryan said there was only a 2% difference in the votes.

Idol really likes all white don't they?! I might be wrong, but I thought the close percentage Ryan mentioned early on had to do with over the season, not specifically tonight's vote. But I could well be wrong I wasn't paying THAT close attention

Access Hollywood is saying Adam missed it because he was put on "vocal rest" and that David had a previous charity commitment. Not sure I'm buying either story, but who knows might be true. EEK big thunder boomer think I'll get my hands off the puter lol

I loved the show and loved seeing my favorite oldies. Maybe they did that because of Simon. Love Chrystal, but so glad that Lee won. I thought it was the best AI final show ever.

We had a big storm here and my lights went out just before Idol came on and just now got them back. Thanks for all the spoiling. Is there a way to watch this show online tomrrow?

When the winners came out, where there just 7? Who was missing? Sorry, don't have the stamina to read through this entire thread.

I understood Ryan say the 2% diff to be over the whole season, not the final results.

Did someone forget to tell Jordan Sparks the dress code for the big production? All the idols were in black with the other contestants in white. Jordan dressed in white and blended in with the non-idols... Great show--wonder where it will go from here?

Thanks Jimmer. So there was only 1 missing? Hasn't it been 10 years? Shouldn't there have been 9 idols?

David is huge for charity events... especially the cancer ones... as his brother died of cancer and he feels close to the cause. Adam has been singing non-stop for months. Working those vocals. Rest wouldn't surprise me.

I'm with Lurk. America got it wrong. But I also like both of them and agree w/Reader that mire young concert goers would go for a guy. Crystal already know who she is as an artist. On top of that she had a lot more experience and has great vocal control. Lee is a beautiful talent with wonderful instinct. He will mature and catch up in no time at all. But judging from what they did last night and those week to week impression, Crystal should have been awarded. Congrats to Lee! I have a feeling he won't forget Crystal along the way.

By the way, we enjoyed tonight's show (partly for the wrong reasons). Loved Casey's performance with Bret Michaels. That was a big highlight for us and we were happy to see Bret doing so well. The rest of the performances were entertaining, though I have to admit there was a bit of ROTFL over Lee and Chicago. Sometimes it's tough to go back. I'm okay with Lee winning (nice guy and decent singer) though I do think that Crystal was the stronger performer and that was fairly evident to me even tonight. It will be interesting to see what they do without Simon next season.
