AMERICAN IDOL 7, Final 5 - NIEL DIAMOND THEME WEEK- My Top 3

APRIL 29, 2008

Tonight this final five contestants took on songs from artist & composer Neil Diamond.

David Cook, David Archuleta, Brooke White, Seysha Mercado & Jason Castro were all attempting to make these cover songs original and tuned to their own style.

Simon cowell stressed how important this would be after the first round of the two.

Since we are down to the final 5 and with each contestant allowed to sing twice tonight, I chose to select the best three performances of the night - even if two came from the same singer.

Here is my little commentary along with complimentary vidoe footage from their numbers.

Enjoy,

HI!! To the one who posted this video, thank you VERY MUCH for giving David Archuleta a nice review! At first when I heard you praising Cook, I thought you will be bashing on DA and so I gave you one star for the rating ooopsss sorry!!! But thank God I finished the video, I was wrong, you were fair about your judging and I was amazed coz usually Cook fans will be rude to DA, but again, THANK YOU!! I'll give you a 5 star now!!!

Thanks. Yes, I don't see the need to insult other singers in a harsh manner. If I do say something negative about one, it's for one of two reasons. Either 1- I never really liked the singers style & sound or 2- A singer did a really bad job & ended up safe over one that I really enjoyed who performed way better and ended up getting the boot ! :) I proudly paised "Cook" as the best this week, but ya, I admit "Archie" did very well with what he chose to sing that night.
