What are the details regarding the american idol top 2?”
88 million votes came pouring in during “American Idol” Top 3 performance night but only one million separated the Top 2, meaning that the final may be a close call. America has voted, Adam Lambert and Kris Allen advance to the next round while Danny Gokey has to end the journey third place. On Tuesday, Gokey sang Terence Trent D’arby’s “Dance Little Sister” and was criticized for his awkward dancing and the song choice, which actually was Paula Abdul’s pick. And then in the second round the Milwaukee native went acoustic with Joe Cocker’s “You Are So Beautiful”.

Kris is more in the line of subdued folk-rock-pop singers who’ve been a staple since James Taylor. He’s anti-flamboyant. He’s the non-Adam. Will this be a tight contest? Could be. Hope so. At the start of the hour, Ryan announced that, of 88 million votes cast, not much more than a million separated the top two. Simon said the finale could be “a big ding-dong,” by which he meant a fierce competition and exciting.
