Idol Reaction 3/17

Looking forward to this weeks Grand Ole Opry theme all I could think was that with this group of people it had potential to be disastrous. Yet I was pleasantly surprised with what I saw tonight. For the most part it was a successful night for the remaining 11 contestants. I'm not a huge fan of country music so I was glad to see artists like Gokey, Giraud, and Desai make the song their own as they inserted their own singing style into these country greats. Adam Lambert continued to weird me out but for him as an artist it was good as he also made it his own. I will continue to say, I would never buy a Adam Lambert record, but that doesn't mean he won't sell any! Top moment of the night was when Simon called Lil Rounds "Little Rounds"! It was hilarious because he didn't realize that Lil was short for Lillian and thought that it was slang for "little". He was genuinely confused and stammered over his words the rest of the critique. It was priceless! Here is a list of the songs that were performed tonight...
