David gave this incredible performance at the AI finale after losing his big brother to brain cancer earlier in the month. The song can be downloaded at iTunes with proceeds going to cancer research.http://americanidolmania.blogspot.com/2009/05/david-cook.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Lori Geurin)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7929318571314977084.post-567385756079220182Fri, 13 Feb 2009 22:42:00 +00002009-02-13T22:49:43.947+00:00American Idol Season 8Danny GokeyEven though American Idol's new season just started, Danny Gokey is my pick to win Season 8(at this point anyway). I know he's a favorite with many others as well. Not only can he sing, but he seems like such a nice guy too. Who could forget the heart-wrenching story about how he lost his wife? I believe we'll be hearing much more to come from Danny.http://americanidolmania.blogspot.com/2009/02/danny-gokeys-amazing-american-idol.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Lori Geurin)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7929318571314977084.post-8032478828085218227Thu, 18 Sep 2008 20:53:00 +00002008-09-18T21:55:40.988+01:00http://americanidolmania.blogspot.com/2008/09/chris-daughtry-performing-foreigners.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Lori Geurin)2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7929318571314977084.post-1569848151399632958Mon, 28 Jul 2008 21:00:00 +00002008-07-28T22:01:32.461+01:00American Idols LiveDavid Cookhttp://americanidolmania.blogspot.com/2008/07/david-cook-at-idols-live.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Lori Geurin)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7929318571314977084.post-7989961213298938537Mon, 28 Jul 2008 20:55:00 +00002008-07-28T21:59:41.173+01:00American Idols LiveCarly SmithsonDavid CookMicheal JohnsWe were able to attend the American Idols Live concert in St Louis last week.

It's interesting how he seems so in his element while singing, but then when he is receiving the judge's feedback he looks like he's extremely nervous (not that I wouldn't be in front of 7,000 people) and almost ready to pass out. DA seems like such a nice kid and is such a talented singer.

It all comes down to the 2 Davids, Archuleta and Cook. Although I admit that early in the season I was rooting for David A., I'm now cheering for David C. In addition to being a fellow Missourian, David Cook has impressed with his originality and vocal maturity. It's hard to compared the 2 because their styles are so different.
