Adam Lambert sings A Change is Gonna Come: American Idol Finale (video)

If the Adam Lambert Mad World performance was understated on tonight’s American Idol finale, Adam’s second song was the dead opposite.

Singing the “producers choice” of A Change is Gonna Come, Adam showed off his impeccable vocal ability, complete with lots of pitch perfect high notes.

And the judges loved it. Randy said to Adam that “You can sing your face off that was unbelievable.” Kara went for “a great combination of high notes and emotion…using both sided of yourself.” Paula added “The best that I’ve heard.. I know you will be iconic!” The hardest, but most important critic to win over was Simon Cowell, and in that regard, Adam won: “All I can say is that you’re 100 percent back in the game.”

Here’s the video of Adam Lambert singing A Change is Gonna Come on the American Idol Season Finale May 19:
