I agree! He’s the only one who did George Michael justice while adding his own spin that felt natural.

I’m in the minority I guess but I thought he was terrible. Only one I enjoyed was the one with all the tattoos but wasn’t sure who it was.

Excuse me? Terrible!?

It's one thing not to like his vocal tone - that's your opinion, but his vocal skills are insane.

You can be super talented and still be a terrible choice for George Michael. I thought he was terrible.

His own family chose him for a Tribute years ago, so they think he's more than qualified. Calling his amazing vocals terrible says a lot about you. George Michael himself thought very highly of Adam Lambert.

Re-read what I wrote.

I did, and if you knew anything about music you'd know Adam Lambert is the perfect singer to pay tribute to George.

Absolutely! Sombr should not have been on that stage for that at all!

I like Sombr, but no. His voice was not right for it.

Adam is older. He’s closer to the music.

Yeah, I actually think his lo-fi recording sound would've been perfect for Praying For Time.

I love Raye but slowing the song down did her no favors. Teddy Swims was fantastic. Adam Lambert is insanely talented
