American Idol-Paul McDonald covers Ryan Adams "Come pick me up"

[dmmkh]

I love Paul McDonald's music! He amazed me with what he did on American Idol...After watching a lot of his past videos with his two bands, American Idol appeared to be very confining for Paul for the most part..., but he was always such a gentleman about everything and so thankful for all the opportunities! What a role model! He is FANTASTIC with HIS OWN MUSIC! Can't wait til he goes on tour with The Grand Magnolias! Thanks to American Idol for letting us know about Paul!

This guy is great, but he moves around like he is having a seizure from a jellyfish sting.

All they do is bleep out Steven Tyler when he speaks. However, they allow this to batter our ears and give us NO protection from it? That was 10 pounds of crap in a 5 pound bag..just flowing over...

[MusikLuvrToo]

Please do better next week, Paul. That was pretty bad.

i love this guy.

he is so free.

i love ryan adams too.

BUT i think he did a great job with the song.

in fact, when i first heard him i said, he reminds me of ryan adams.

and his smile is dazzling. <3 .

[DTR]

Damn. This is the worst thing I have seen in a long while. Awful cover, awful voice, awful dancing.

[Wirtlehm]

I liked his version better than the original... Paul should stick around <3

I have a new found respect for Randy Jackson after he threw a shout out to Whiskeytown

[MVbia]

Another great song killed by main stream media. . . .

I was a huge fan of Paul ...tonight...IDK..I think the dancing distracted from the song..I really couldn't get into it at all....I threw him a vote anyway to keep him around...he's gotta do better next week though

[hitspace1]

he did not butcher it... i prefer it to the original... though i love ryan adams. he should cover "you're beautiful" by james blunt or actually any james blunt song

[bling10511]

@hitspace1 if you prefer that to the original then you're obviously tone deaf. That dude butchered that song so badly.... And J-Lo.... Don't know who RA is? Go back to being a Fly-Girl. It's the only thing you were ever good at. Your music is horrible, but not as horrible as your acting.

[blazingsaddle07]

@bling10511 If you prefer the original than you must have different tastes in music than the people that did like it. That guy did the song in his own style?! How dare he! And J-Lo...you aren't aware of every artist to ever live? Because of that you must be a complete idiot. I bet all the musicians that you know are just terrible. Nothing will ever be as good as bling10511's taste in music. Go back to being a Fly-Girl because you have sold so many records you are probably bored.

...Jackass...
