    Shubha-Vedula-Born-This-Way-American-Idol-12-Top-40-Sudden-Death-2The twelfth season of American Idol is getting ready to call it curtains this upcoming Wednesday with our first all-girl finale since Season 3′s Diana DeGarmo took on eventual winner, Fantasia Barrino.  This time we have the vocally masterful Candice Glover taking on the poised and humble country girl, Kree Harrison.  Staff Writer Joseph Braverman has done an outstanding job recapping all the episodes this season, as well as taking on the less than enthusiastic show from NBC.

    Recapping the season, it’s been pretty impressive.  We’re finally getting a female winner this year after being given the finger since Season 6′s Jordin Sparks.  With a definite sign of manipulation that was set from the season jump, this year was riddled with poor choices for male contestants to set up an eventual all-five female lineup, an Idol first.  There was also in the inclusion of Lazaro Arbos, the stuttering Miami native that forgot lyrics week after week and managed to outlast every guy in the competition.  With Randy Jackson announcing his departure from Idol after the finale, rumors are swirling that all the judges including executive producer Nigel Lythgoe will be replaced next season.

    janelle-arthur-american-idolThe Top 8 American Idol hopefuls took the stage tonight taking on the music of Detroit with Motown legend Smokey Robinson in tow to guide them through the process.  This theme and genre has been done countless times on American Idol and hopefully Executive Producer Nigel Lythgoe is getting wind of that and will bring some fresh sounds to the themes in the coming weeks, and hopefully future seasons.

    Host Ryan Seacrest gave us a breakdown of the show with not only the eight contestants performing solos but the infamous return of the duets/trios that plagued us all so much last year during Season 11.  I guess we’re stuck with this for the next two weeks until we’re down to six or they use the save.  I’ll only be going in-depth on the solo performances from this evening.
