A Beatles tribute and finally, a winner

Kelly Clarkson comes out one more time to sing The Beatles' "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band," accompanied by Aerosmith's Joe Perry. it's pretty good - I love Kelly Clarkson's voice and how she can rock out like a superstar and then come back and sing a beautiful ballad as soft and sweet as needed. She's fantastic.

Taylor Hicks comes out again and he sings The Beatles' "A Day In the Life." He sings it much better than he sang his own song, I think.

The next one up is Carrie Underwood and the tribute to The Beatles continues as she sings "She's Leaving Home." Ruben Studdard comes out and sings "Lucy In the Sky With Diamonds." Andthen finally, the top 12 finish it off by singing "With a Little Help From My Friends."

Finally. Beatles music on "American Idol." I hope this continues - I hope next season is filled with The Beatles - I hope they dedicate a whole week to it.

But can we please, please get to winner now???

OK here it is... After 74 million votes this week, the latest "American Idol" winner is.... Jordin Sparks.

And that's it. It's finally over.
