Caught In A TrapBy Jacob | Season 9 | Episode 30 | Aired on 2010.04.13 Performances: Top 9 Again, I Guess - Elvis Night does everything bad that Beatles Night forgot to do, but at least Siobhan sticks to her guns about being terrible some more. www.televisionwithoutpity.com/show/american_idol/performances_top_9_again_i_gue.php
Adam Lambert As Mentor On American Idol - Adam Clips
...and then we learn about Elvis. Oh hell, Elvis? I mean, Adam's great but what? What? Let's think about this.
Adam talks about Elvis's relevance and then he's out in the audience wearing all the makeup that's available in America, and Ryan congratulates him on the "two extra inches" his Elvis-coif has given him. It sounds weird. They talk a whole lot more and Adam's great but I don't really care about this part: He wants them to do it right, and they're not going to do it right, so let's pick a new goal.
Just when you thought things couldn't get any more sexual or troubling between Ryan and Adam, they start singing in falsetto at each other and Adam tells him to put more tongue into it and Ryan says that, sadly, his tongue is not as talented as Adam's. This causes Mr. Schue behind them to lose his mind, which is already annoyingly under a fedora hat. Ryan closes his eyes and wonders about his career and Adam has had such a hard year that he can't even blush about this sort of thing anymore.

Crystal Bowersox "Saved" (Elvis Presley)
Crystal will be singing "Saved," a song I don't know about. Adam, of course, can't quit about Crystal, but it's refreshing because he comes to her like a fan and not like Madonna kissing Britney that time. He's excited about her electric guitar and wants her to shake her dreads around and is, I think, pretty stoned.

Andrew Garcia - "Hound Dog"
Ryan calls Andrew "bro," and that's all I have to say about it. I'm more interested in how Adam will deal with him. But first, let's ask how Andrew feels about the POV Save of Mike's wonderful song? Andrew feels like they are both lesbian fathers, and we should not forget that for a second. So in a way, Mike's triumph is actually his triumph. Ryan asks if Andrew can break his own seal, whatever that means, and then calls him "baby." God. Adam tells us that Andrew sucks, and tells Andrew that he sucks. Andrew, of course, understands that what Adam really means is that he and Adam are the same lesbian father and that this was actually a compliment.
[Jacob talks about judges remarks.]
Nobody has mentioned Adam Lambert's tongue in like ten minutes.

Tim Urban "Can't Help Falling in Love"
Adam drinks in the sight of Tim Urban singing "Can't Help Falling In Love," the most obvious possible, perfect song of him. He sings at Adam with those eyes blinking, and Adam tells him many times that it sounds "pretty" and tells him to end on his head voice. That could go either way. Mostly I just want them to hold hands in a park somewhere. Ryan then introduces Tim Urban as "Turban," which makes sense because his relationship portmanteau has to be Tim + Urban, if you think about it. Collectively, he is all of our boyfriend, and Timerica sounds kinda dumb. (Great job!) The song is lovely but not so describable. He is dewy, and believes in love.

Aaron Kelly - "Blue Suede Shoes"
Okay, Adam and Aaron. Yeah. "Blue Suede Shoes." Also yeah. Adam totally forgot, as we all do every week, that Aaron's voice is fabulous. He tells him to growl more, and starts yelling "grab it!" in his face over and over. He thinks Aaron doesn't believe in himself or commit to the song, but the case is that Aaron is deeply uncomfortable with Adam up in his face, signifying his total future.

Siobhan Magnus - "Suspicious Minds"
Ryan's like, "Get a load of this mindfuck combo: Siobhan and Adam Lambert." They cut to Siobhan and Adam on the front row, staring at each other like two faces or one vase, and then a slow turn to the camera with smiles of wicked, lovely glee. Oh girl.
I hope that he does not lead her over the edge into Crazytown. I hope that he leads her over the edge into Crazytown. I hope both.
...and we finally kick to Siobhan singing, awesome, "Suspicious Minds." Adam loves her pipes, but asks her to kick it up a notch instead of being boring like the last two weeks. She loves the faster tempo, which Adam knew she'd love. Siobhan thanks him for being her template on the show, which Adam is mostly okay with, and they hug.

Michael Lynche - "In the Ghetto"
Adam tells us Mike deserves redemption, and the singing a song about newborn ghetto babies is the way to fucking do that. If you ever wondered how I really truly felt about Gokey, it's kinder to say that he ranks somewhere between Mike and Andrew in terms of the unthinking dedication to kitsch and the unthinking dedication to not thinking that they represent respectively.

Katie Stevens - "Baby, What You Want Me to Do?"
Katie and Adam, I presume, got along famously. "Baby What Do You Want Me To Do?" is the song, which I don't know, but I love that she went straight to him and was like, "Get the fucking judges off my back before I hurt somebody," and Adam was like, "Act mad and be believable." He then blinks and you can see him forget that they ever met, because he's so high and so doesn't care about this shit.
