good the show highlighted the big four. The four biggest stars. Well jhud too. But shes not current atm in music. Why highlight less succesfull alums. Trying to paint how idol produced stars. Adam, Carrie, Kelly, and Daghtry are the pinacle of what idol stood for. Taking unkwowns and making them live the American dream. They are also forbes highest earners. Adam 1st . So you know makes sense.

rose petal said "Adam was born to change the world."
In April of 2010, six years ago, I flew to Vancouver alone - after getting my first passport - to see Adam perform. I had dinner with three other 'strangers' . . . we made these elaborate preparations to meet at a very public restaurant, not knowing if any of us was the sane one in this group of freaks who couldn't explain why we were doing what we were doing. The three strangers turned out to be Melisende, JustKaren, and Suz526. What illustrious company! During our dinner, I said exactly what rose petal wrote above. I knew then that Adam would change the world. I know it now. The 'aura' that was spoken of today . . . it envelops Adam. It is the background of his presence.
He is a special and unique being. I'm only beginning to understand why he was put on this earth. I promise you, it's for more than your entertainment.
Mayumi - I could have hugged you all night long. Thank you for your niece's perceptions. She now joins us down the rabbit hole!! We have many carrots dangling before us! I can't wait for what's next; and, already I miss what just passed. Think I'll need the tissues tonight as I watch the Idol 'reflection' show. It wasn't the show that changed my life. It was the man on Season 8.

So thrilled with the editing and Adam's significant contribution to this AI special. The producers know who has brought recognition to AI and vice versa.
The AI special was so well done...and pretty darn open in terms of warts and all being aired. It certainly made me want to watch to learn the background scoop on things. I was introduced to AI in season 2 when on a holiday in Florida with my brother/ family. They were addicted to AI.
I have watched bits and pieces of other season's before and after Adam, but only fell for this one cute guy singing "Satisfaction." WOW! How he has changed the "satisfaction" of my free time. Thank you Simon Fuller et al.

Well, I do know that both David Cook and Kris Allen have done "real tours." Cook has done several, and his first--right after Idol and his debut album--was incredibly lengthy. And, it sounds like Durbin was tweeting about a tour schedule. I actually think quite a few are accomplishing this. True. Point is though no idol alum can tour internatinally like Adam can. Just America. And thats not just counting Queen. No, that wasn't the point being made. Nobody is doubting that Adam leads when it comes to international touring (behind Kelly). This particular conversation, unless I interpreted it incorrectly, was directed at Idols touring in the US

Sorry but that was the wholenpoint. The lvl of idols touring cred, in which Adam surpasses all imo. Kelly has more radio success then any alum tho.

LOVED the retrospective! Idol sure made it clear who they feel the big stars are---so glad Adam got mad respect I do feel sorry for Kris. They really gave him a terrible edit.
