Adam’s Mad World on American Idol

Adam’s version of “Mad World” earned him a standing ovation from Simon. And almost no words. Just pure and utter praise. From SIMON. (Download it on iTunes here–for PC or Mac.)
Of all performances so far, this seems to be the one audiences are raving about the most. There is just something special about Lambert’s performances on American Idol. Maybe he puts a lot of work into the lighting and costuming as well as the signing. (Do the contestants get involved in that?) His voice is definitely awesome–no question about that.
The Adam mania going on is pretty cool–and here’s why: he’s winning on talent. He’s handsome, but that’s not why America is crazy about him. They love his talent and originality. It’s so exciting to watch him each week. And those high notes…his falsetto is just incredible. Can’t wait to see more!
PS. He mentioned how much he loved dressing up as a child. His father commented that Adam always loved dressing up…but sports, “not so much.”



Adam is the hottest contestant ever. Loved this rendition–really cool song choice.
This was a neat performance. I think Adam’s talent at staging performances has gone unrecognized. You can tell he is behind it because none of the other contestants have such awesome colors and lights when they perform.
The chill ice blue and white in this performance was almost hypnotic. Then you hear his voice…Adam rocks.
This was a really great performance, even got Simon Cowell on his feet and gave Adam a standing ovation. American Idol is great this year and Adam Lambert makes it worthwhile to watch, thats for sure.
this song that you sang was amazing i thought it was the best song u sang idk why but how u push your voice to sound amazing
