Any American Idol fans out there? What did you think of last night’s finale? Who are you rooting for\u00a0to win tonight?<\/p>\n
I have my fav\u2014David Cook. Do I think he’ll win? Not really. I’ll be very surprised if he does, and, frankly, I’m just glad he made it to the finals.\u00a0As much as I admire Big David’s singing, I think it’s pretty difficult to come out on top when you’re up against a teen phenomenon like David Archuleta. American Idol is known for producing (or at least choosing as winners) pop singers over rock. And I do think Little David is talented, but I can’t imagine buying his debut CD. I’m past the age where I want to listen to ballad after ballad. Had enough of that with Barry Manilow and Elton John (now I’m aging myself, LOL).<\/p>\n
My take on last night’s finale\u2014I loved both their first performances. For the second song, I was thrilled that the producers didn’t make them sing the same song from the finale-song contest. I know the judges thought Little David killed it with his performance, but I was groovin’ on DC’s tune. The last round, I loved that David Cook didn’t do a repeat of an earlier performance, even though I did love his rendition of Billy Jean. I think Little David’s version of Imagine is beautiful, but I bore easily, and I would have rather he sung a song I hadn’t heard him sing before.<\/p>\n
That’s my take, anyway. How about you?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
