American Idol judge, Kara Dioguardi, compared this season's AI hopeful, Andrew Garcia, to Adam Lambert, and not because he's a flamboyant rock star, but because he can take a song and "flip it."
Andrew performed an amazing acoustic version of former AI judge, Paula Abdul's hit song, "Straight Up," and let me tell you, if Paula was there, she would have loved it.
Watch the performance below:
Speaking of Adam Lambert, his rendition of Tears for Fears' "Mad World" on last year's American Idol brought tears to my eyes and as corny as that may sound, listen to the song and try not to be blown away.
This performance won Adam a standing ovation by non other than Mr. Grouch, Simon Cowell. It's one thing to be able to sing a song well, but it's another to be able to put a unique spin on it and make it your own.
Adam's clearly pleasing his fans, as his debut album, For Your Entertainment, has officially hit Gold with sales reaching 500,000 copies.
Yep, that Tears for Fears song...gold!
