Aaron Kelly gives us 'the growl' on 'American Idol'

Aaron Kelly is singing "Blue Suede Shoes." Adam Lambert says he underestimated how good his voice is, buy wants him to commit more to it.

See, now he's got some attitude -- it's not totally believable, but Elvis never is, important thing is to give us a show, and Aaron is trying. Wow, just totally draws it out toward the end, gives it a bit more edge. It's slightly funny cause he's such a small, nice kid, but he totally gets the song.

Randy says it started weird, but finished strong with the bluesy feel. Ellen thought it was a big song to take on, nice try. Kara says she likes seeing him out of his comfort zone, liked his "growl."

Simon thought it was old-fashioned, calls it karaoke, and nothing original, "like you're dressing up for the part."
