I'm reporting on this week's two episodes of American Idol. I'm not sure exactly what it was, but I thought the performances (yes, even David Cook's performance) were slightly if not completely boring. Maybe it's because I only know 3 songs from Neil Diamond or there was some other factor present at the moment, but I just couldn't keep my attention to the performances. So, I can't really say much about them.
But I can talk about the results so far (as of 9:30 est).
Jason Castro- I was not that surprised to see him safe and make his way to the couches. I mean, I know his performances are less than stellar but if it were a bottom 3 instead of 2, he'd be there.
David Archuleta- I'm DEFINITELY NOT surprised that he made his way to those cheesy velvet couches. I mean, he's just oozing American Idol. He is young, moldable, marketable. Why shouldn't he win? He is just what a good little American Idol should be.
David Cook- I'm not really shocked at this one either. It has always been predicted that Archuleta, Cook and Smithson would make it to the top 3. But now that Smithson is gone (unfortunately), everything is up in the air. But whatever he does, he has actual talent and I think he'll make it. I(Don't believe me? just check out his album, Analog Heart)
