David Cook. Finally, an end has come to this season's American Idol. It was a battle between two Davids: Archuleta and Cook.
After their last performances of Tuesday, it seemed that if the voters followed Simon's advice, Archuleta would be our idol right now. Cowell praised Achuleta on his brilliant song choice. He also, however, stated that he didn't care who won. He felt that both of the contestants were equally deserving of the title. It seems that some users of Youtube agree.

The drama continues.
I will admit that I have not been watching American Idol all too closely this year, but these past few weeks have proven to be interesting.
With Brooke White gone, the season is now down to three guys and one girl. Many people believe that this is because the majority of American Idol viewers are girls/women. That being said, the girls vote for the guys! Of course, it didn't help that Brooke sang a pretty bad version of "I'm A Believer" in the first round, but still, the guys definitely seem to have an "ups" in this competition. Syesha's...
