Last night's American Idol® theme was good, old rock n' roll classics. With only two weeks left until the grand finale, four lucky Idols® remain standing. First up on last night’s rock themed show, Adam Lambert reminded the judges why he is this season’s favorite, flawlessly performing Led Zeppelin’s “Whole Lotta Love.” Teen rocker, Alison Iraheta, received cold reviews for her performance of Janis Joplin’s “Cry Baby.” She might have fared better with Simon’s pick, Queen’s “Somebody to Love,” or her original choice, Jefferson Airplane’s “Somebody to Love.” Simon’s prediction: Alison will coast to freedom after her duet with Adam Lambert of Guitar Hero III favorite, Foghat’s “Slow Ride.” Kris Allen’s subtle, folksy style did not translate well for the judges, who felt that his vocals did not meet the challenge of “Come Together” by The Beatles. Last up was Danny Gokey, valiantly trying to emulate Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler with “Dream On.” Though Danny’s performance was shaky, remind yourself of Steven Tyler’s brilliant vocal on this live version of the classic.
