I thought Adam was fine, not thrilling or moving, and Kris was awesome. But I'm totally biased for Kris so feel free to discount my judgment. I just love seeing him at the piano.

I like Adam, I do--he just doesn't do it for me and that song did nothing to change my mind.

And shut up about the Lakers, Randy.

Did Simon just stop taking part in the Adam pimp-fest for a moment?!!?!?!

Adam singing Mad World - Absolutely gorgeous. Best performance of the season! I loved the way it looked like he was walking in the clouds, LoL. Very introverted performance, no shrieking. I LOVED IT.

Kris singing Ain't No Sunshine - Best performance of the season, by a mile. I loved him on the piano. I loved the way it started slow, then got a little faster and then slowed back down in the end. His vocals were perfect. Gorgeous, gorgeous!

Did you notices how the judges weren't acting so goo-goo ga-ga over Adam even though he gave an incredible performance? It's all about the reverse psychology. They want to scare his fans into voting and they also don't want it to look so obvious that he's going to win... hence Simon calling Round 1 for Kris.

Be careful and don't fall for it. I would not bet he is going to do what he did last year for David Cook.

With that being said, with both guys so far it is still a tie. They are both very different artists but they both know what works for them. Very different with the two David's last year. My votes still going for Kris, but I think both have a shot at making it after the show.

Same thing he did last year. He will give more praise to one that he DOESN'T want to win.

I don't really care who wins, but I thought Kris won that round. Hope Adam brings it for the next one.

I swear I think AI has a acceptable song book of about 100 songs. Syesha sang this song last year. I didn't recognize it by the title but as Adam started singing it I recognized it.

I love Mad World. I'm going to have to see Adam's rendition of that one, because it's one of my all time favourites!

I dunno, Kenny. Adam's not the second coming. LoL! Mad World was better the first time. I wasn't as into it.

Adam's over the top but that's his style. I can't believe his shrieking is considered GOOD. What a joke!

Kris was fantastic.

And I'm not being biased. I like both and would be thrilled with either of them winning. Adam's got great vocals, but he's just too theatrical. Not that it's a horrible thing. It clearly works for him.

Well, Adam definitely has passion. I don't really care who wins either, but at least both contestants are fighting for the title.

I'm sorry, but that yelling and falsetto just ruins it for me. Enjoyed the first song more than this one.

Just realized that about Simon and his reverse psychology.

And I thought Adam's performance was good...both he and Kris are doing well so far.

Adam singing Fuller's choice - Yuck. That's all I'm gonna say about that. Shrieky, shrieky, shrieky. Eww.

I see Mrs. Tom Cruise in the audience!

I thought the same thing. Just too LOUD for me overall. Too much, too over the top. I respect Adam's talent, he just really needs to learn to dial it down, to please me at least, lol.

I want to like Adam, I want to root for him, I love that song and want to love his interpretation but I just... wasn't... feeling it.

Maybe when he is writing his own lyrics or singing his own songs it'll be better? I mean I love bands like The Mars Volta and The Darkness that have singers that do somewhat of a shrieking thing like him too but I just couldn't dig that one so much.
