Kris--SOOOO Motown!
From BuzzSugar.com:
Smokey Robinson stopped by American Idol this week to advise the 10 remaining contestants in the ways of Motown. The night included footage of a trip to Detroit, some weird stuff with Paula, Simon, and a magic marker, and a lot of fairly boring performances. Or maybe it wasn't the performances as much as the show itself, which seemed bloated with random asides (a coloring book?) and yet somehow still managed to seem rushed by the end.
All in all, I wouldn't say this was one of the season's more memorable outings, though there were still some performances that will have people talking. If you haven't already, go tell me which singer you think is headed home, and to check out my take, just read more.
Matt Giraud--Initially I thought "Let's Get It On" would be a good pick for Matt... but his high notes were really not working for me, though he did appear to gain confidence when he stepped out to center stage and got his soulful groove on. Simon said it was a brilliant song choice, Kara said the girls will want to get it on with him now, and Randy said he's one of the frontrunners.
Kris Allen--It's official: I like Kris more with the guitar than without.

I think Matt, Kris, Allison, Anoop and Adam all did very well, but dang it I hate Adam's falsetto so bad I almost didn't realize it was good. I wish he'd tone that down a bit.
I love the motown genre and I think Mat, Kris and Adam did very well.
I really don't like Motown songs. But the show was good.
