The Final Three: American Idol

Photobucket

David Archuleta
First song: Sorry, he still creeps me out and I don't like this song.
Second Song: Oh NO!!!! NO!!! He can NOT do Chris Brown.
Third Song: Nope.

Syesha Mercado
First song: Goond song choice! I think she did a good job. It's still amazing to me that Syesha found her personality so late in the game.
Second song: Too old fashioned, but she looks great.
Third song: I actually liked it. Shows she can sound young/contemporary.

David Cook
First song: Wow on the song choice. He's doing a good job with it. Has this been covered by anyone else? Good job!
Second song: I didn't care for this performance.
Third song: LOVED.

All in all, my Friend & Savior, Barb, summed up the evening well:

I certainly agreed with Simon that David Cook was the winner of the night. I wasn't totally blown away with his performances, but I thought he was the clear winner. Little David sang well BUT I can't get over the fact that this is a 17 year old boy who really only shines when he sings ballads that I don't think any young people will buy. I thought he sounded and acted ridiculous with his second song (his choice). 'My boo' was HIS bad!!!!! I actually liked Syesha a lot more than the judges did. I'll be shocked if Syesha doesn't go home.

That's how I feel, too. Except I would have been meaner about David Archuleta.

Wow--my AI commentary has hit the big time!! LOL I think I feel too sorry for David A to be mean about him. His situation reminds me of the pageant moms who have their 5 year old girls in sexy dresses, big hair & full makeup and pretend they are doing this for their kid(and NOT themselves!) I hope David is genuinely happy with his life and his Daddy Dearest.

I completely agree about all three! I also feel bad for Little Davey, he seemed more nervous and giggly than ever last night.

On wed. show they played the past videos of the contestants and I remembered why at first I liked David A. He was actually kind of cute and normal looking! He's always had that annoying voice... but I think AI has made him look horrible! Most of his clothes to me don't look like they fit his personality at all. He's just a mess. They need to leave the poor boy alone.
