I absolutely love Queen's music. I'm looking forward to seeing what they can do with it. It will be nice to see Adam again as well.

I wish I liked Adam, but I never have. I recognize his talent, but I don't like his voice or him.

Well he was quite a polarizing contestant. I think that sometimes contestants pick lesser known songs as they find them less intimidating to sing but I agree that it frequently backfires on them.

he has a good voice,I don't always like his arrangement choices or some things he has said in interviews. (for example Interjecting Susan Boyles name out of thin air)

I still go back and watch Adam's rendition of Mad World - one of the best AI performances ever.

I'm sure people may disagree but I think that Adam was the last truly exceptional Idol contestant.

When Adam lost, my sister called me up and said he was robbed.

Adam has done well since Idol, I thought he would win that season, as well.

He was up against a conservative Christian. The Christian right came out against him. They couldn't let a gay man be the American Idol. I think we've progressed a bit (how much, I'm not really sure) since those days. At least, I hope we have. Adam was robbed for sure. Such a talent! He just makes me smile. He has had so much more success than the kid who beat him (can't even remember his name half the time). Maybe it was a good thing Adam didn't win and wasn't locked into the Idol contract. He's managed to blossom.

I love Queen's music! I've always thought Adam should have won his AI season & agree that he's having a way more acknowledged music career than that Chris guy who won. I'm excited to see what the F8 will do with this music & think it will be a perfect fit for Jerimiah. I'm curious what some of the others will do.

Love Adam too and he’s also handsome. I hate to see that Urich was eliminated but he had a couple of bad song choices.

Not liking his version of Under pressure. None of the pressure that the song usually has.

I thought Madison sounded a bit like Heart's Ann Wilson. She was good.

For a Queen night, there’s not much energy happening. It’s like they found every boring ballad that Queen wrote. Other than Laine. At this point, I’m only waiting for Adam to sing. Unless he’s singing all the classics Queen songs, this is a waste of time.

Laine was so good. It helps that he is so darn handsome.

Didn’t even care for Wade Cota. Thought he would knock it out of the park. Laine was clearly the best so far. Plus, he’s the only one who appeared to have any fun tonight.

wow did Wade do horrible or what? I know he is the growling guy but for the judges to say they heard him do some singing and the praise heaped at someone who sang a sound with soaring parts that could not get off the ground and in a singing show, wow, that was so bad,but the judging was actually worse!! I have heard growlers, pick a song you can growl through but even growlers have to sing a little. I guess that really annoyed me because there is not much to that song, it is easy to rouse, it is legendary, and he made it so much less. if these judges can't give one piece of advice, don't call them judges call them encourage-rs.

Based only on last night, Walker should have been one of the 2 to go. I've liked him all along and last wk, he was one of the best performers.

Seems like they are eliminating them quickly. I thought Alyssa was all over the place with that song.
