American Idol comes to a close and the roar of the crowd during and after David Archuleta’s performances was evidence that I was right this whole time
. I predicted that David Archuleta would win the whole thing with David Cook coming in the somewhat coveted second. I say coveted because runners-up at American Idol are the ones who get the biggest record sales (except maybe the first idol, Kelly Clarkson)…
David Cook is going to sell a ton of albums no matter what happens tomorrow night. I think Cook is more talented and more experienced, and is more my style. I’d be happy if Archuleta wins too. He’s LDS, which is a plus. It will be interesting to see how a mormon kid is able to let his light so shine as he goes on tour and does a million press conferences, performances and appearances. We shall see.
Enjoy the finale tomorrow night. Remember they love to pull all kinds of surprises. Remember Prince? Yeah, that was HUGE.
I just don’t want David Archuleta to get crushed by the entertainment business. His dad will protect him, I hope. He’s gonna cry when he wins. You know it.
David Cook really surprised me. He kind of flew below the radar for a while, but has really come to shine. He is much more comfortable with the crowds and the craziness.
OK, I missed the pick, but it was who I actually wanted to win, so congrats DAVID COOK! I might actually be interested in his first album.
Did anyone see that commerical for Guitar Hero? David Cook did the Tom Cruise Risky Business thing with a wireles GH controller. Pretty funny and I bet his female fans were going nuts-o.
