He keeps changing it up each week, which definitely makes it more interesting for me as a viewer. He's much better than Chris Daughtry too. I never liked Chris and his overabundance of melisma and zero charisma. hey dip shit, it was a cover of a cover of Billie Jean. He didn't change up shit, he did exactly Chris Cornell's version and not as well. He sounded good, I'm not saying that it wasn't good. But don't give credit where credit isn't due. Nothing original happened last night. Randy is a dumbass. Hey, moron, changing it up means not singing an exact replica of the original. thankyouverymuch The other finalists aren't even looking for other versions of the songs that have been covered by a trillion people before them. Boring.

He probably said it in his pre-performance video like he said the White Snake thing but for some reason it got edited out in favour of other footage.

She is one of the most talented songwriters out there and her portfolio is much more extensive than it would seem. Personally, I would like to see David grab "I Will Always Love You" out of the desperate, cat-fighting clutches of Ramielle, Carly, Artichoke, Syesha and Kristy--and turn it into something dark and stalkerish. Those girls would just pee themselves in envy. And then Simon can say, "Well, okay. Finally someone has done a 'Whitney' song without trying to be Whitney." It would also be fun if Jason took it on. Seriously, though, despite the ott costuming and stage persona, Dolly is incredibly gifted and relevent when she writes for others.

So we can look forward to David's impression of Jack White. I'm also getting a little tired of him making every song a grunge-fest, but he's good at it. At least he's upfront about stealing his arrangements, unlike Daughtry. He's also got a more appealing personality than Daughtry. I really wish we could somehow pretend Daughtry never existed and replace him with Cook.

Let's hope he give "Jolene" a miss this time. I heard punk versions of "Islands In The Stream" by Rickshaw and "9 to 5" by Millencolin on iTunes that could be good if they were toned down a bit. I think it would be so fun if he did one of those.

And miss the excitement of watching Carly and Archtard slowly self-combust when they come to realize they aren't going to win? What fun is that?

Then we wouldn't have to listen to his grunge/angst cover shit which is so "original." When his album comes out and sounds like Hinder, I can forget I ever heard of him. If this guy did half as well as Daughtry, he massive would explode from egotism. Last Edited By: opendoor50 03/27/08 9:49 PM. Edited 1 times.

The funny thing alot of his fans hate Daughtry for turning every theme into a rock concert , but believe David is soooo original. Last Edited By: latingrl2005 03/27/08 11:15 PM. Edited 1 times.
