My Favorite Idol Performances (Season 8 Finalists)

Hey guys, so tonight and tomorrow night are the final two episodes of American Idol. It is down to Adam Lambert and Kris Allen (the final I was hoping for all season long!!) As many of you may know, I am a hardcore Kris Allen fan...however, I would honestly be happy either way. I have not been a big Adam fan, but he is extremely talented and I actually do enjoy listening to him. So really I am just looking forward to two nights of awesome performances. Make sure you guys check out the two-part finale tonight and tomorrow night at 7pm CT.

Anyway, in spirit of this season American Idol coming to a close, I thought I would share my Top 10 favorite performances this season. Check them out, and feel free to share your thoughts!
