The other judges didn't comment after Mad World, at least on the air.

Adam's whole performance ran overtime and only Simon spoke.
Millions of people that were recording the show missed Adam's performance and Simon's standing ovation.

I checked the results night episode on Megavideo, too.
The other judges didn't comment then, either.

Here's a screenshot of an avi file that I have downloaded and watch ~~incessantly~~ very frequently.

I absolutely love this vid and keeps me smiling for about 2 1/4 hours.

At about 54 minutes in, the other judges comment before Adam's given the 'safe' nod.

You can go straight there if you don't want to slog through the whole thing

.

I'm going to try and find the original now, but as you now have the same info as me, someone else will probably get there first :

.

ETA. Of course everyone else is asleep or working. duh!
I think the link is on this page; (tag mehrdad, size and date ok)
truetorrent.com/torrent/Adam-Lambert-American-Idol-Journey.
I remember it being my first, and only, torrent download with SIL assist. I'm really unsure about going there again.
If any of the media techies can check it out, it's really worth the effort

.

I haven't figured out how to do torrents. I'll have to get my son to show me.

I did check the Top 8 result show again.

The other judges comments about Mad World start at 15:30.

You can watch either of these links.

Is this true? We were just talking about Tom Jones yesterday (#tightpants!), and this tweet says he is performing with the boys on the AI finale.
Tom and Adam in the same room, LOL!

squiggles621 beyonce is performing w/top 13 girls and tom jones w/top 13 boys, haley is dueting w/tony bennett and the douche w/judas priest

The entire duet and group list is in the AI10 thread.

Adam Lambert

Arguably the most famous runner-up, Season 8 rocker Adam Lambert, released his debut album, For Your Entertainment, in November 2009. Since then he was nominated for a Best Male Pop Vocal Performance Grammy and has performed on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno," "Late Show with David Letterman" and "Dancing with the Stars."

I made a mistake of reading the comments - so sad... both Scotty and Lauren are "wholesome" and that's what our country needs...

So happy to see the reasoning behind Maxidrom inviting Adam, as well as expected 50K attendance! I hope this number means a good pay day

I was just watching some fan vids and looking at some Adam pictures when a realization came to me that I would like to share, take it or leave it.
I don't think Adam's life could be too much better than it has been the last 2 years. Yes, he could have more money and win more awards, HOWEVER,

1. He was totally the star of the Idols' tour
2. His album came out and was successful from the getgo
3. He went around the world promoting it, having fun, showing what acoustic Adam had to offer, and it was plenty, and making friends and admirers of everyone he met
4. He then returned to take his sold out GNT not only around the US, but around the world, again to rave reviews
5. He was nominated for a Grammy
6. He found someone to love, something that I feel was close to the top of his "To Do" list
7. He has maintained close friendships with his Glamily and his pre-idol friends
8. He has a Godson who was born on his birthday, aawwwww, and who he gets to spend time with
9. He has raised close to $ 1 mil for meaningful charities
10. He lives his daily life with a partner, going to things as diverse as RuPaul's Drag Race and a baby shower for Carmit
11.He is working, and having fun doing it, on album #2 and knows that his fans are excited about what he is creating for us
12.He has evolved into not only a star, but a really good man.

Maybe for those who wish he was as big as Gaga or Bieber or those who worry about what cretins have to say about him, JD take note, just take a minute to think about the fabulous life that Adam not only lives, but seems to relish. We are a fortunate fandom and Adam is a very, very fortunate man, and deservedly so. Sticks and stones..................

There's nothing wrong with being "wholesome," but it doesn't have to equate with being boring. Adam is edgy, but minus a few hip thrusts and wondering hands during a performance, personality wise, Adam is as wholesome as they come. Come on - a friggin' BABY SHOWER, a birthday party for HIS MOM. What mom wouldn't love to have him as a son-in-law?
