This was a great night for Idol, with each Idol sing three songs - one picked by the judges, one by the Idol, and one be the producers. Simon proclaimed that David Cooke won the night, but I would call it a tie between the two David’s. To be honest, I was disappointed with David Cooke’s performance of ‘I Dare You to Move’, he is definitely no Jonathan Foreman. I did think his other two songs were very strong.
David Archuleta was very strong on his opening song by Billy Joel, but surprisingly disappointing on Chris Brown’s ‘With You’. This is really the kind of song, he is going to have to do well, if he is to have a great Idol career.
I do give the two David’s a tie win for the night, but with that said, I think Syesha was very solid. I disagreed with the judges on her ‘Fever’ performance, and overall, I think she not only sounds great, but she really ’owns’ the stage like a seasoned diva. It’s been a pleasant surprise to watch her progress this season, and even if this was her last night, I can now predict a great career for Syesha in the music industry. She just has great stage charisma, IMHO.
Will it be the two David’s left standing? It is what I’ve been predicting for several weeks. It would be a great upset, if one of the David’s goes home tomorrow night. We’ll just have to wait and see.
