I was rooting for David the whole season, when i heard he was doing "Music of the NIght" i almost passed out - i knew he would do so perfectly and he did, especially the studio version.. He didn't do a rock version, he kept it very classical.
Like Randy said "If you can really sing, you can sing ANYTHING" He really was amazing!!
He is so beyond amazing. This is one American Idol I have never gotten sick of. I will admit that when I was watching the show I got nervous when he said he was going to sing this song, but he pulled it off so perfectly and brilliantly. Still to this day it is my favourite AI performance ever and sends chills up my spine. I do believe this man is every woman's wet dream. lol.
@frannyboo1994 I KNOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He is so amazing!!!!!!!!! Best musical best singer best song!!!!!! He would be a brilliant phantom!!!!!!
@seventhlostgal i thought he would make a good phantom to when i heard him sing this song on american idol i would pay and go and see him in phantom if he ever took the roll up
David Cook's singing is as hot and sexy as he is *drools* (yes i literally drooled). When he sings this song it gives me goosebumps and he sounds so romantic. I wish he's singing to me *faints*
this song is absolutely why i fell in love with cook. he's versatile. he's got soul. and when he did that little half grin at "to the music that i write..." that got me soooo hard.
LOL at ryan *sings* if you want to vote for daviiid...
OMG he is absolutely amazing. I've seen this video/heard this song at least 50 times and it still gives me goosebumps! :D Especially when he goes "Let your soul take you where you long to beeeee" and then he looks up with those soulful, innocent, longing, brown eyes of his... He is absolutely gorgeous!!!
ROFLOL...I have been trying to figure out who loyd weber reminds me of... JIMINY GLICK!! (Martin Short character)..HAHA..it is the expression at the end....
Yeah, I think he is too good for American Idol. Ofcourse if he wins, he'll be labeled as the American Idol Winner, but if he doesn't like Daughtry, he's gonna be the biggest star of them all. He's ready to make an album. He doesn't even need to win. He's awesome, and did a great job of this song!
Loved listening to him sing the song!!! "Let your soul take you where you long to BEEEEEE" :-)...Loved It!!! When he got to that part I was thinking...is he going to do it...he did........YES!!!! Awesome!!
David Cook will win. Archeleta is too raw and one dimensional. Cooks rich voice and versality is absolutely scintillating. Archeleta peaked at "imagine", but cook peaks every week! From "Hello" to "Eleaneor Rigby" to "Billy Jean" to "Always be my baby" to this one, the guy week by week continues to produce steller performances. Archeleta attracts teenie boppers, but this guy attracts the entire adult world.
omg... o_O... now I love this guy even more.. =).. this song is soooooooooo beautiful... and David did a very very good job... well.. except that last note... it sounded a little weird... but anyways... DAVID COOK IS AMAZINGGGGG :P
I live in Vegas, and I've seen the show 4 times (twice with Anthony, twice with Brandon.) He's not as good as Anthony...but he BLOWS Brandon out of the water! (Brandon can't even hit the note for "where you want to BE..."
not the best of the night nor his best to date. nevertheless, it was quite good considering the fact that this is not his genre. syesha stole the show last night! still, the 2 davids will surely top the votes again with their respectable performances.
hahahahhahha luv when Andrew says "im a gorgeous 17 yr old girl... and dave said well im 25 so.... hahahahhaha niceee he is sooooo witty and smart and funny and talented
HAHAH the beginning is hilarious hahaha
