American Idol Season 7 Winner: David Cook

May 22nd, 2008

David Cook garnered 56% of votes declaring him as the winner of American Idol Season 7! Here’s a video tribute for David Cook:
Cook’s fans didn’t let the judges declare Archuleta as the winner as he got only 44% of the votes. The American Idol top 12 performed “Get Ready“. After which, the two Davids sang […]

Who Will Win on American Idol Season 7?

May 21st, 2008

Who will win on David vs. David night? The Judges apparently go for David Archuleta as he sung ”Don’t Let the Sun Go Down on Me” by Elton John; ”In This Moment,” by Ryan Gillmor; and ”Imagine,” by John Lennon. Simon said David A is the winner for the night. All little David needs now […]

American Idol Top 2

May 15th, 2008

As expected, it is a David vs. David battle on American Idol Season 7. Syesha Mercado was voted off from the Top 3. Although Syesha can belt out higher tones, it is apparent that the two guys has more fans. Little girls definitely vote for their cutie pie David Archuleta while teens swoon over David […]

David Cook - Dare You to Move lyrics

May 14th, 2008

David Cook sung Dare You to Move by Switchfoot on American Idol. It is one of the soundtracks of the movie A Walk to Remember. Here’s the video and lyrics:

Welcome to the planet
Welcome to existence
Everyone’s here
Everyone’s here
Everybody’s watching you now
Everybody waits for you now
What happens next?
What happens next?

David Cook - The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face lyrics

May 14th, 2008

David Cook sung Roberta Flack’s The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face. All the judges approved his arrangement on this song that Simon Cowell even considered it as his best performance ever. I still think Always Be My Baby is his best performance though. But I heard some negative issues regarding Cook. Some says […]

What will David Cook sing tonight?

May 13th, 2008

I heard that David Cook will sing Roberta Flock’s The First Time I Ever Saw Your Face tonight on American Idol. Like Mariah’s Always Be My Baby, David will add twist to this mellow song by making it into alternative, as his trademark.
Is he going to rock the audience tonight? I believe his performance on […]

American Idol Top 3

May 8th, 2008

So who’s gonna go home tonight? I bet it’s either Syesha Mercado or Jason Castro, but more likely it’s Jason. It would be another surprise elimination if we see David Archuleta or David Cook get boot off. I hope TALENT prevails over POPULARITY. VOTES really count on this show, not the contestants’ talent, otherwise, Michael […]

Always Be My Baby by David Cook Fever

May 8th, 2008

David Cook’s rendition of Mariah’s song Always Be My Baby hit the airwaves fast and it is the most favorite and requested song. I really like how he delivered it, I even downloaded it to my Ipod. :)
Definitely, Cook will be on American Idol top 3. He is not much of an attraction at first […]

David Archuleta - Love Me Tender

May 7th, 2008

David Archuleta picked Love Me Tender by Elvis Presley. I like David, but I think his performance last night was pretty boring. His voice is good at ballads but not on rock and roll. There are many rock and roll songs to choose at but the American Idol Top 4 had bad choices I think.
Love […]

David Cook - Hungry like the Wolf

May 7th, 2008

I totally agree with Randy Jackson’s comment, David Cook should have chosen a really rock and roll song instead of Duran Duran’s “Hungry like the Wolf”. He has a vocal like a rock star, which reminds me of Chris Daughtry. It was ok though but not quite appealing to me.
Hungry like the Wolf lyrics:
(ha ha)
Dark […]

Jason Castro - I Shot the Sheriff

May 7th, 2008

This is definitely not Jason Castro’s best performance. He only got Bob Marley’s hair but he messed up his song. I think Syesha Mercado will be on the top 3, lucky gal. Anyway, here’s the lyrics:

The Paula Abdul Show

May 1st, 2008

Oh my God, I thought you sing twice
Too much gold on her attire, perhaps? Rumors had it that Paula’s either drunk or had taken drugs that night.

Brook White - I’m a Believer

April 30th, 2008

Brook White sang I’m a Believer and I am…I said, her choices of Neil Diamond’ songs. I’m still a big fan of her but David Archuleta is still the best. Here’s the video and lyrics:

I thought love was only true in fairy tales
Meant for someone else but not for me
Love was out to get me
Thats […]

David Archuleta - Sweet Caroline & America

April 30th, 2008

David Archuleta is brilliant as always though I don’t really dig Neil Diamond’s songs. Here’s his video and lyrics of Sweet Caroline and America:
Lyrics of Sweet Caroline:
Where it began
I can’t begin to knowin’
but then I know it’s growin’ strong.
Was in the spring

American Idol April 23 results

April 24th, 2008

Who was eliminated? Mostly expected it’s either Jason Castro or Syesha Mercado. But surprise, surprise…. It’s CARLY SMITHSON!
Carly and Syesha were in the bottom two, there was no bottom three. Another great talent was voted off, another surprise elimination just like Michael Johns. And it will be a big surprise if David Archuleta will […]

David Archuleta - Think of me

April 23rd, 2008

David Archuleta’s song for tonight’s American Idol is Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Think of Me from the Phantom of Opera. Here goes the lyrics:
think of me
think of me fondly
when we’ve said goodbye
remember me every so often
promise me you’ll try
nn that day - that not so distant day
when you are far away and free
if you ever find […]

Carly Smithson - Jesus Christ Superstar

April 23rd, 2008

Carly Smithson picked Jesus Christ Superstar as they sing Andrew Lloyd Webber’s song. Here’s the lyrics:
Every time I look at you
I don’t understand
Why you let the things you did
Get so out of hand
You’d have managed better
If you’d had it planned
Now why’d you choose such a backward time
And such a strange land?

David Cook - Music of the Night lyrics

April 23rd, 2008

It is Andrew Lloyd Webber’s night on American Idol. Here’s the Music of the Night lyrics to be sung by David Cook:
Nighttime sharpens, heightens each sensation
Darkness stirs and wakes imagination
Silently the senses abandon their defenses
Slowly, gently, night unfurls its splendour
Grasp it, sense it, tremulous and tender
Turn your face away from the garish light of […]

Kristy Lee Cook says Bye-bye

April 17th, 2008

At last, Kristy Lee Cook was sent home from American Idol April 16 elimination. She should have been eliminated earlier. It’s a good thing she’s pretty nonetheless, she would have got eliminated early on.
It was an all-female cast on the bottom three, with Brook White and Syesha Mercado.
Kristy Lee Cook’s April 15 performance:

Without You lyrics

April 16th, 2008

Lyrics of Without You sung by Carly Smithson of American Idol:
No I cant forget this evening
Or your face as you were leaving
But I guess thats just the way
The story goes
You always smile but in your eyes
Your sorrow shows
Yes it shows
No I cant forget tomorrow
When I think of all my sorrow
When I had you there
But then […]
