American Idol - Season 7 (1 Viewer)

[ThomasC]

Seriously. He's a kid. He'll get the hang of it...hopefully.

 

[Hanson]

He used, "dude you can sing the phonebook" multiple times instead.

I think that both performers were pretty much on key all night, negating the opportunity to use "pitchy".

 

[Steve_Tk]

Wonder how bad tonight will be. I really enjoyed the Season Finale with daughtry and that crew, forget which season that was.

 

[Josh Dial]

I generally don't agree with a single thing Hanson says (in a friendly sort of way!), but he's pretty spot on here (except for the ballroom part - I wouldn't say it's mostly ballroom, but rather mostly contemporary...). So You Think You Can Dance is easily the best dance show on TV. When my g/f was studying dance at University, she would often comment how the other dancers at school would watch Dancing with the Stars as some sort of comedy show

Also, Cat Deeley is hot.

 

[Greg_S_H]

Let's just put it this way. I'm waiting at least an hour in to start watching so I can make judicious use of the FF button.

 

[Scott-S]

I would rather watch paint dry than to watch people dance.

Dancing has never made sense to me. Moving your body around in time with a beat serves no purpose except maybe to get a mate.

How would you explain dancing to a visitor to our planet? Explain why wiggling around is entertainment? Why would I want to watch people having convulsions in time to music?

I have never gotten it, never will. I certainly don't understand people watching on tv.

Sorry, I know we're are getting off topic, but I just can't comprehend how these dancing shows are doings so well in the ratings.

 

[John Swarce]

Scott-S:

I direct you to the movie "Footloose" and Wren's (Kevin Bacon) speech to the town elders about why dancing is important!

We now return you to your regularly scheduled thread topic.....

David Cook by TWELVE MILLION VOTES?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?

 

[Patrick Sun]

Wow, somewhat of a shocker.

 

[ChristopherG]

hah!

 

[Keith Paynter]

I'll say. Hopefully he does better than most. I think he's far more relevent than 'Archie', who seems to be out of his element in anything other than sappy ballads and love songs.

I think the best bits were Cook w/ZZ Top, and Brooke with Graham Nash. Probably moments of a lifetime for both. But how much more must we endure Jack Black?

"I am your brother...!!"

 

[Bryan X]

When they said 12 million vote difference I figured it was Archie for sure. But I'm glad it was Cook.

And damn, George Michael does NOT look 44. He looked 74! Yikes. Sounded great, though.

 

[Lucia Duran]

I am very shocked myself to see that Cook won. Happy, but shocked! I actually quite enjoyed the two David's harmonizing on the very first song. It's a song I would purchase on Itunes if they put it on there.

I hate the we have a movie/album to promote crap. Although I adore George Michael, his performance was not very strong as I know he can do.

I also enjoyed Brook White's and Graham Nash's performance, again, a song I would download.

Was it just me or did Paula's boobs seem like they were trying to escape her dress all night? and what the H was with all the shiny material on the girls dresses. Horrible! As someone who sews and knows fabrics very well, those dresses (particularly Carly's, Mickela's and Syesha's) were horrible and not flattering at all.

Randy's suit was very obnoxious as well.


As for the second runner up... I think poppachuleta is going to be sticking him back on probation for screwing this up? LOL!

 

[Greg_S_H]

SON OF A BITCH! "And the winner is David" RECORDING FINISHED DELETE

Just like that. Right on the name. GAH!

 

[Keith Paynter]

A candidate for Peter Griffin's "Side Boob" cable show...

Cook way-y-y outsang 'Archie' on Hero.

Still carrying on the tradition of cheesy 'Idol' single, though...

 

[Inspector Hammer!]

And teenyboppers all over the world are weeping tonight.

Congrats Cook!

 

[Malcolm R]

What was this, Attack of the 80's? George Michael, Donna Summer, ZZ Top, Bryan Adams...no wonder they're losing the young audience.

Congrats to Mr. Cook. He began to grow on me a bit as the season came to an end though I was still hoping for an Archie victory.

I look forward to new music from both of the Davids.

 

[Inspector Hammer!]

Ah man! Words cannot measure the level of fury I would have experienced if mine did that! I checked mine and it cut off 2 seconds after Seacrest said "...Cook!"

 

[James Lee]

Oh boy, little David is going to be SO grounded by daddy now.

 

[Greg_S_H]

The worst part is having to sit through all the crap. Even if most of it is going by in FF. So, did anything happen after the word "Cook?" Did he sing the winning song, or was it just a confetti fest?

Enjoyed ZZ Top, and I thought Brooke did great on her part of the Donna Summer song. Maybe pigeonholing herself as folk/country/singer-songwriter was a mistake.

I'll resist rubbing it in since I disliked Archuleta, but it's still a nice victory for Cook. And, I voted for about twenty minutes, so I did my part.
