IDOL GRAND FINALE: SHOW DOWN OF THE DAVIDS!

We saw them give their final performances last night and now we must wait for tonight’s results show as the newest American Idol is crowned!  My money is lil David Archuleta for the win; girls go wild for him, his song choices were on point (Don’t Let the Sun Go Down On Me was pretty spectacular and Imagine drove it home) and Simon declared it a K.O. in his favor.  But however phenomenal lil David was last night, I think it’s David Cook who truly deserves to win.  Big David clearly has the chops and the experience (25-years-old rather than a naive 17) to be a true pop star, where as I see lil David following in the footsteps of another Idol finalist, Clay Aiken, and ending up on Broadway.  Either way both Davids are going to go on to do big thing-congratulations and good luck guys!

    Even if David Archulata wins, David Cook will surely make it good in the recording industry just like Chris Daughtry.

    wait. people actually think david cook is gonna win? ha, wow! that’s pretty funny.

    Cook all the way! He has the bigger range and has taken the most risks! And he didn’t repeat a song he already did because he wanted to show us another great song he can do, so i thought that was way cool. Archie is just too immature in the business it seems. Give him a couple years to perfect his voice and he’ll be even better and way more prepared for a record. So I gotta say this should go to David Cook, hands down!

    DAVID ARCHULETA IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!
    DAVID, WILL OU MARRY ME?!!!
    LOL. NO BUT REALLY HE’S A HEART-THROB!=]

    David Cook will have an AWESOME CAREER whether he wins or not. David Archuleta will have a very hard time making it in the entertainment business. Mainly because he has ZERO personality. He can’t even speak a complete sentence. He laughs and talks at the same time which makes him sound . . . well, a bit on the odd side.

    Lets be sincere: who brought originality, great songs and amazing performances??
    DAVID COOK!
    Archie is cute and belongs to Disney Channel (and High school ,musicals) he lacks the life experience to be an artist. He doesnt konw who he is yet,he is a child for God sake.
    DAVID COOK is very well rounded as an artist and does amazing performances..my money in on him to win the whooole lot
    GOOOO COOKIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

  • IdolFan

    DAvid Cook deserves to win based on all the great performances he is been doing during this competition. Remember last week with “i dont wanna miss a thing’? that was MAGIC! pure talent, he is just a pure and incredible artist.
    Archie needs to get a little life, out of his father and just grown. He will be an amazing artist, but in a couple more years.
    THIS WAS THE BEST FINALE EVER
    LOVE THEM BOTH!!!
    COOK DESERVES TO WIN

  • hwa

    dAVID COOK obviously should win!!! but as the others said… even if he wins or not, he will have a successful career ahead of him.. unlike david archuleta, he needs American Idol title to help him build his career.. BUT I STRONGLY HOPE THAT DAVID COOK WINS!!!!

    Archuleta’s ears are so cute.
    And his almost full red, kissable lips..hmmm!
    I envy him, I got thin lips.

    Yeah, I think Cook should win.

    Cookies, i like Cookies.
    His personality is much greater than Archie.

    I like Archie but he’s just so immature, blank ego.

    At first I thought I won’t care who will win but after the announcement of the winner. I’m heartbroken!

    But DA was very brave and steps aside after the announcement!
