Hilary Rothing

Quote :: Before we dive head first into the tenth and easily most controversial season of 'American Idol' yet (premiering Wed., Jan. 19, 8PM ET on Fox), let's take stock of where the greatest talent competition in television has been this last decade.

In this exclusive official retrospective video, 'American Idol' winners describing their incredible journeys, from their first auditions to their crowning moments to post-show stardom.

Then continue on for our favorite moments in 'Idol' history. The inspirational stories, the heartbreaking eliminations, the laughs, the tears, the pitchyness, Sanjaya and that dude who said he slept with Paula, it's all there.

1. Adam Lambert Lets Us Into His 'Mad World'

Quote :: There's setting the bar high and then there's just smashing it over your knee and breaking it in half. That's exactly what a glammed-down Adam Lambert, bathed in a haunting, icy blue light, did with his rendition of the Tears for Fears hit 'Mad World.' The performance bought Simon to his feet, which is perhaps harder to do than actually winning 'American Idol.' It also established Adam Lambert as not just a formidable talent, but as an artist capable of making each performance uniquely his own.

'American Idol'

Adam Lambert, Carrie Underwood, Chris Daughtry and Clay Aiken are Top Ten Idols."

Quote :: With “American Idol” starting back up on Wednesday with new judges Steven Tyler and Jennifer Lopez, I felt that now was a good time to reminisce on some of “Idols” best contestants to date. I look forward to hear your opinions, but keep in mind that this list is very subjective. I haven’t watched the show since day one and quite frankly I don’t really even like the show. However, as a fan of music there have been moments that have stood out for me.

As Season 10 of American Idol is about to begin - Adam mentions

Quote :: Season 8 – Kara DioGaurdi joins the judges panel, but all eyes are on Adam Lambert. The glam-rocker with the flashy costumes and piercing vocals, is a buzz magnet as the media becomes obsessed with not only his talent, but his sexual preference. Despite – or maybe because of – the Adamania, low-key crooner Kris Allen wins the crown.

Extract taken from Not all ''American Idol Stars were winners on NWHerald

Quote :: Kris Allen, who won Season Eight over the more flamboyant and more commercially successful Adam Lambert, fits the mold of "the low-key rocker guy" who has won in the past three seasons, starting with David Cook and ending with last year's winner, Lee DeWyze. Allen may have drawn votes because of his good looks, personal appeal and underdog status, Rushfield says.

Carly Smithson's take on Adam Lambert

pinella

Quote :: “I have never met Adam Lambert. But absolutely, I am a big fan of his. I think his voice will go down in history as one of the greatest voices I have ever heard. He did say in the Rolling Stone interview that he thought I was fierce cause he watched the show while he was in Wicked. I would love to meet him. He seems like a very carefree person.
