It’s no secret that Sam and I watch American Idol. We don’t try to hide it anymore, especially since last year….it was really good. That said, American Idol started a couple of weeks ago, and so far, there have been a couple of promising contestants, but I’ll tell you something that I’ve been telling Sam lately. I keep asking Sam – “So when is David going to perform?” The David I’m talking about is David Archuleta, the rightful winner of last year’s contest. I don’t mean that I want him to come do a guest performance – I mean I want him to do the show all over again. I’m saying I want him to start at the beginning and choose a song each week and act like he’s not sure if the judge’s like him or not and then blow the competition away. Because man, he was really good at doing all those things. He was just so dadgum entertaining! With that, I’ll leave you with my favorite performance that he did.
And by the way, I think it’s the biggest crime in the world that he lost to THIS GUY:

I’m with you. I don’t know what happened on that David/David deal. At the time, I thought that he was having a tough time following the Imagine success, maybe he peaked too early.

Amen! David Archuleta should have won. Cook is great, but DA has the ability to technically sing a song without a hitch, but what makes him stand out, besides his mad vocals, is his abiltiy to put emotion and feeling into his performances. So amazing for a 17 year old.

You’re right. Its a tragedy…like it would have been last night had Milk won over Slumdog. I saw both movies. The acting and filming and dialogue and everything was good in both but Slumdog is fantastic. There is nothing thats wrong about that movie.
Sorry, I know we arent talking about the movies but I didnt even really watch AI last season. I just know that I would have felt like this last night had Slumdog not won.
As it is, though, Rourke should have beat out Penn. I said my piece.
