… when you can watch YouTube the next morning?
David Cook blew it last night. He sang Collective Soul’s The World I Know.
He should have sang Billie Jean.
This means whiny, soft, sugary, lame, Broadway bound David Archuletta (and his crazy ass dad) will win.
It’s probably a good thing for Arch, I can’t imagine what his dad would have done to him if he lost.
In the end, just like in previous seasons, the loser will be the bigger winner. Cook will be on the radio by year’s end, Archuletta will be little more than Clay Aiken’s understudy.

Personally I think Cook threw the finale on purpose. He’s no dumb-dumb and he knew the songs he chose last night weren’t going to get anybody excited enough to vote for him. He’ll be more successful in his career if he’s not saddled with the American Idol title and all the restrictions and limitations that it brings (think Daughtry who I also believe threw the competition on purpose). Archuleta on the other hand, would have (as you said) no place to go but Broadway without the American Idol title. Even with it he’s probably headed straight to Broadway… although he did sing his face off last night. I’ve got to hand it to him. The kid did well.
