I really wanted Cooke to win, and I agree that the judges seemed to be very pro-archie. Where I disagree is that the first song was probably a tie. They both did a good job. The second was a wash because both songs sucked, but I give it to Archie because he sang it better and the last song sang clearly went to Archie. I have to give props to Cooke for trying that last song, but it wasn't a song that needed to be "cookeized". He should have sang it the way it was done originally. The world I know is all about the build up in that song. Starting out soft and building to a climax. Cooke didn't do that.<BR/><BR/>I knew based on this year that if Man and boy were in the finals that Man would have to bring 3 Billie Jeans back to back and boy would have to flop on all three songs while giving the middle finger to his fans. Archie just has a HUGE tiny bopper fan base. Honestly, I wanted Cooke to win, but in the long run this will be better for his career. He will be huge, while Archie will put out one album, it will go platinum and we'll never hear from him again like the majority of Idol winners. Oh well. This was a great year though.Chris Shttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00307903185241168902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-58157815235384878.post-70018576255892052852008-05-21T09:09:00.000-05:002008-05-21T09:09:00.000-05:00I think D.C.'s best song was Billie Jean. It was the best of the season! But I hear he took it from someone else. He didn't come up with the arrangement by himself.<BR/>(But the Mimi song was good too.)<BR/>Team Cook!<BR/><BR/>Sarah B.<BR/>Chicago, ILAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-58157815235384878.post-36987181295664715622008-05-21T06:57:00.000-05:002008-05-21T06:57:00.000-05:00I agree. Randy didn't even seem to listen. Everything Archuleta did was great, awesome, the bomb. I thought both contestants had "pitchy" moments...Neither was at their best last night.<BR/><BR/>That being said, I voted for Cook 20 or so times. I do what I can for mankind.<BR/>-Pink PartnerAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
