WOW! What a show and congratulations to Chris Allen!I was amazed at the result, but I guess my wife had it right, “Adam is in a league of his own and will go on to super stardom. Give someone else a chance to win.” It looks like voters agreed with her take on who should win.
The show had all the “bling”, “pizzazz”, “promotion”, “special effects”, an audience could ask for. I think it was the best “Rock” music show I can ever remember watching in many years.
Even though it was a great entertainment event, my take on the show is it was a celebration of people who follow their dreams. I noticed that the contestants that made it the farthest never once said they were doing it for “my kids”, “my parents”, “my family”, etc. I think they were doing something they love and believe in. They remained themselves throughout the competition and did not change because of something someone else said. I think this is something most people aspire for. To know who they are and know that there is nothing that can stop them from achieving their dreams. No limits, no fear, overcoming hurdles, and continuing the dream.
I congratulate American Idol for bringing this “reality” show to the public and showing us that all the contestants from this year and previous years are following the same path. If you think about it, the show itself is a dream of someone who had an idea, acted on the idea, and “made it happen”. Some may say “they did it for the money and the fame”, but I think when your doing something you absolutely love, the money and the fame do not matter. The “money and fame” are perks.
I have nothing to add at this time except I invite you to take a few moments and post a comment.
