AI tonight
Well, we watched the David's face off last night. I thought the opening with the boxing theme was very cool! Cook did a great job channeling a boxer, while Archie was being a teenage goofball.
Anyway, I enjoyed the evening, I thought both of them did a great job. Clive Davis picked out kick a$$ songs for both of them to showcase themselves during. Vicki is happy that Cook covered the U2 song, finally an idol does U2 and does it well! And Archuletta really did a good job with Don't Let the Sun Go Down On Me. I mean, that was just as good a choice for him as Imagine was the first time he did it.
Normally I agree with Simon, he's usually right on, but I just couldn't agree with him that Archuletta was a knock out over Cook. I think he did really well, but I think Cook showed us so much more versatility and performance. He really is the package when it comes to the AI being a marketable one. And I so didn't agree with Simon saying that Cook should have done Billie Jean again. I don't think Archuletta should have done Imagine again. Yes, they both did them well, the first time. I don't tune in to AI for re-runs. I don't tune in to see a song I've heard before. If I like it, I'll d/l it from iTunes! But I want to see new songs, there are TONS out there to choose from.
So, I felt like a tween last night, as I dialed in for Cook for two hours or so. I started while I was watching AI (we Tivo'd) and continued through Hell's Kitchen. Gotta love Hell's Kitchen. It's just soooooo different, to me anyway.
Of course, I was the one who thought Bones was a shocker of a season finally, when a friend of mine didn't think so. And House was on track to be a really good season finally, but the second half was a let down because I was disappointed that they killed off Wilson's happiness.
Ok...TV rant over for today. I'll be disappointed tonight when Archie wins AI because Cook would do better as the AI but we'll still see Cook, I'm sure he'll have a career close to what Daughtry has.
