i wanted david archuleta to win…
Lets hope David Cook now gets a new hair cut. This one is so stupid. I hate the way it looks…does he think he’s Napoleon?
And David A sang so much better than David C. The voters must have been tone deaf.
david archuleta should be the winner!!! he was robbed!! cook sounds like any rocker…ughhh
DAVID COOK IS THE BEST *.*
I was so surprised when that little piece of kaka didn’t win. Yay for Cook!
Before the finals, several polls reported Cook as the overwhelming favorite to win the American Idol with a 70% favoring Cook, and 30% favoring Archie according to USAToday. Why? Given that Archuleta gave a STUNNING performance on all three songs during the finals night, why did Archie lose the crown? The stunning performance was not stunning enough to sway the loyal Cook fans to switch their votes to Archie.
A cute and adorable singer may have the most wonderful voice in the world, however he can only sing ballads well. And a rocker may take risks with all kinds of voice ranges which may result to not quite reaching the right pitch everytime he sings. However, he can sing rock, sing pop, sing classic, sing current songs very nicely while his studio versions of the songs are deemed flawless. As stated earlier, before the FINALS, 70% voted favorably for Cook to win the idol crown according to USAToday. What is this telling us???? People want to hear rock, pop, current music, new hits from a music artist. And only 30% can live with hearing ballads all day. I would be surprised if 70% would want to hear ballads but Archie stuck to ballads throughout the competition and when he wandered from the ballads, they flopped. Therefore, not all of the people are into ballads. Yes, Archie’s voice was wonderful, PERFECT, hair-raising, and makes you cry, however 70% of the people do not feel like crying over ballad songs. They want to rock and feel happy, be current, fall in love with a new rendition, with a new tune and apparently Cook had accomplished that for them.
Cook is a brilliant artist! He made his fans fall in love with his new renditions, new tunes, songs from bands that an ordinary person has never heard of before. This would explain why people would await his performance each week because they were eager to hear which song he was going to perform and if the performance will be a hit for them. Cook covered two songs at the finals that most people have never heard of before. Of course, with the short amount of time to practice new renditions, his performances were not perfect. The judges crucified Cook. But his fans were forgiving because when they played the videos again and again in you tube, they have grown to love Dream Big and declared it as the best of the night performance. The song from Collective Soul, “The World I Know” was a new-found discovery for most of the listeners and turned out to be a great song for the fans.
Therefore, in the end… in the minds of the 56% of the voters, Cook emerges as their BRILLIANT American Idol.
yay david !
he deserves it (:
