I think he will do fine. Right now, he is just trying to get through the competition. I think when they have someone to write for him he will shine!

Here's my LATE take on this week's show: David Cook: first song, "Hungry Like The Wolf" by Duran Duran...solid performance; nice song rendition. I have always liked that song anyhow. The second song, which I call "Teenage Wasteland", but which actually called "Baba O"Reilly", by The Who...another solid, rocking performance. Good job! Syesha Mercado: first song, "Proud Mary", by Tina Turner; nice job...she rocked the song, with dance moves and all. Her second song, "A Change Is Gonna Come", by Sam Cooke...nice bluesy performance. Syesha was dressed marvelously! Jason Castro: first song, "I Shot the Sheriff" by Bob Marley...bad performance...omg! He just doesn't have what it takes to sing reggae. Ever. His second song, "Mr. Tambourine Man", by Bob Dillon...he forgot the fraking lyrics, fer gawd's sake! I knew that was his death knell. David Archuleta: first song, "Stand By Me"....was wonderful. His voice is so pure! His second song blew my mind, "Love Me Tender", by Elvis Presley. OMG! HOWL....! Totally awesome...this song rendition was packed with emotion. Either Randy or Paula said that every word of the song came out wrapped in feeling. He could have been singing that song to me...I actually got goose-bumps. ================================================================ Now, after the vote........I just knew it would be Jason Castro.  Especially after his major gaffe with forgetting the lyrics to the song he was singing. Duh! He knew it also...or should have known. Randy was right when he told Jason to pack his bags.  Hehehehe...good bye to those awful, nasty, dirty-looking dreadlocks. Good bye to mediocrity. I do think that David Archuleta will walk away with this...with David Cook right on his heels. A wonderful conclusion...a David-David winning team!  Ah...they could make a sandwich with me in the middle. |

David Archuleta's dad loses 'American Idol' backstage pass By LYNN ELBER, AP Television Writer
Sat May 10, 6:45 AM ETLOS ANGELES (AP) — Backstage meddling has caught up "American Idol" favorite David Archuleta's dad, who's been banned from rehearsals, a person working for the TV talent contest said Friday. Jeff Archuleta was told this week by producers that he can no longer join 17-year-old son as David as he prepares for the show, the person familiar with the matter told The Associated Press. The person wasn't authorized to comment publicly and spoke on the condition of anonymity. Jeff Archuleta's intense backstage involvement had become a source of concern for the series, the person connected with "American Idol" said — but it was a lyric change on Tuesday's show that pushed producers to act. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080510/ap_en_tv/american_idol_7;_ylt=AqSoAKhGq9e5R9aJtPCSYLUE1vAI================================================================================= Dad needs to go! He needs to leave David alone and stop stressing him out, especially now that he can see the finish line. Dad should be supporting his son, not trying to run the show. If David wins, he should seriously think about leaving home and getting the nonsense away from Dad.

Syeshia was very good but its going to be the david's.. I would looooove to see david a go home. He is just so blah. He sounds the same every single week. He was really, really boring tonight. Could he sing an upbeat song once in awhile. He is so depressing makes me want to open a vein.

I wasn't that impressed by the performances tonight. You can tell the competition is wearing them out. Hope Syesha gets the boot.

As thomasisunderrated posted -- BLASPHEMY!  Off with your head. Ping, inform Wolfie of this violation. 3mnkids1 needs to be punished in some way. To David's defense, he didn't get to choose but two of the songs this week...only one; which was an upbeat, modern song. I think he should stick to the ballads. As Simon Cowell once told David..."he could whistle the song and still be better than the other contestants." Here is my recap: David Archuleta: "And So It Goes" by Billy Joel; another solid performance. "With You" by Chris Brown; a decent performance, and different from what he usually sings. "Longer" by Dan Fogleberg; sappy, but sweet. Syesha Mercado: "I've Got You" by Alicia Keys; BLAH! A so-so performance. "Fever" by Peggy Lee; BLAH! Part 2 "(something about penguins"); BLAH! Part 3 David Cook: "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face" by Roberta Flack; an awesome performance, very nice indeed! "a song from Switchfoot"; BLAH! Not his best; he was pitchy. "Don't Want To Miss A Thing"; he rocked that song; very good. None of the songs were really great. I look for Syesha to get the boot tonight. |

Well it came down just like I thought it would! David x David for the finals...it was set many, many weeks ago as far as I am concerned...I don't care what anyone thinks, the producers wouldn't have had it any other way!
I just got to watch the show from last night tonight ~ but I will be downloading (if I can!) David A's 'And So It Goes' and David C's 'The First Time' and 'Don't Want to Miss a Thing'! I still think Archie will win! I enjoy watching him as well as David C., but I think Archie's fanbase is gonna send him soaring next week. Teenyboppers have more patiences with the voting nonsense than older people!
American Idol tour is coming to Evansville for the first time and I would LOVE to go see it this year. MAYBE I can convince Jimmie to let me go...

In all honesty, I'm starting to like the Davids equally well. They're very different, and I could see myself buying both of their records. However, my hunch is that this will be the result due to the teen vote:  |

I'm going to go out on a limb here and make my prediction. The winner will absolutely, postively, without any doubt whatsoever be......David! |

I look forward to tonight' show! It should be an awesome match-up between the two Davids. I had a strange dream about Archuleta last night. I dreamed that we both were chosen to be partners in some sort of training program. Later that night, after being chosen as partners, I dreamed I walked into a front room of the house we were staying in. I spread a blanket on the floor and sat down to look out the window over the darkened, snow-covered landscape. I heard someone approaching the room, so I turned to look and it was Archuleta coming in to sit next to me on the blanket to share the quietness and the closeness. |

unfortunately David A will win. however, I predict he will have a career like studdard, aiken, and hicks..non existent. while David C on the other hand will sell albums like chris daughtry I know David A has alot of fans here but omg!! He is soooo boring.  The Awww shucks, licks lips, awww shucks, licks lips... makes me want to strangle him. |

I have to say that Archie ran away with it tonight! I liked all three of David C's, but I loved Archie's...I love 'Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me' anyway, but I loved that second song as well! Of course we had heard imagine, but I was still glad to hear it again!
Again both are going to be huge, and I will own anything that both David's do!

Wow...David Archuleta pretty much ran away with the competition tonight. He was flawless in his performances, and yes, "Don't Let the Sun Go Down On Me" was great! David Cook did really well too...but he was a bit pitchy in places during his first song. He sang too low (or soft) during the second song...I found it hard to make out some of his words. I wish them both the very best in life, especially Archuleta.  I hope he can get away from his father and become his own person. I wonder if he is Mormon (out of curiosity). |

Yes, he is...I don't think they have made a point to say anything about it on this show, but I do remember them saying so when he was on Star Search! |
