Poll of the week: "Ring of Fire" is readers' most memorable moment of '09

IDOL LIVE readers elected Adam Lambert's "Ring of Fire" performance as their most memorable Idol-related moment of 2009 in the latest edition of the poll of the week series.

Adam's performance eked out a win with 35 votes (31%) over Kris Allen's winning moment over Adam, which nabbed 29 votes (26%). The moment that IDOL LIVE selected as its most memorable moment of the year, Adam's American Music Awards performance, only finished third this time around with 12 votes (10%).

The least memorable of the most memorable moments was the judges' use of their save power to protect Matt Giraud from falling victim at the hands of voters, as it failed to earn a single vote.

In this week's edition of the poll of the week, readers are asked what they are most looking forward to for Season 9. Voting will be open for exactly one week.
