David Archuleta=AMAZING — Page 4

OH PLEASE! David COOK? He makes Pamela Anderson's breasts look real! He says his Music Influences are "Our Lady Peace" and he sings HAPPY TOGETHER? PLEASE! That is so phony! Obviously, he's playing to the judges with that crap! And the way he looks at the camera like it's a person! Did you see the way he held up ONE finger when Ryan said the phone number to call to vote for him? OBVIOUSLY he thinks he's way too good for American Idol! And I work on show that shares tech people with AI and EVERYONE says he's a liar and a fake and he's very very gassy. I'd never vote for him. He's FAKE!

Awww-- I was hoping you were gonna go ballistic on me! I was ready to PROVE that he only PRETENDS to look interested when the judges criticize him!

He's okay. His breathing drives me to distraction, so I can never really enjoy his performances. That, and he's rather dull to watch. That's okay, though. I prefer a voice to a performance. But they're going to have to filter out those breaths on the CD, for me.

Firstly, I like Archuleta. He's my current favorite. Is he perfect?, no. But he's young, there's no denying there's genuine talent there and I think that his full bodied "entertainer" will emerge with time.

I think David seems like a sweet, somewhat shy and/or awkward, teenager, who likes singing. Perhaps he is touched by such an overwhelming show of support for his performances. Yes, he did Star Search and a few local morning talk shows - how many peoole saw those? This is American Idol. TV's #1 show. He is being praised, cheered for, hailed as the new king...that's gotta be wild for the kid.

Perhaps, he is usually an outsider in school, thought of by his peers as "that werd singing kid who is always in talent shows" and "thinks he's a big deal b/c he was on Star Search." To suddenly feel this accepted may be overwhelming, intoxicating, dumbfounding.

That's my take. (I've rambled on a littletoo much.)

Ok, So I ADORE him. He's absolutely precious. He seems so humble and personable. His voice is unique and he's only 17 for goodness sake! Compared to the others in the competition, I would definitely say he's in the top 3. Who can disagree with that?

The real question is, if it comes down to it, will he take on David Hernandez in a strip-off?

Now THAT would be good television.

One can only hope...but only after he turns 18.

oy vey, Yeah, ok. iris.

I'm telling you, if only they'd add a swimsuit competition...

Only if you kneel first.

Come on.. you know you wanna.

I think Cook was the best one last night too. I voted for him several times...not a real good sign though that I was able to get thru every time with no problem.

I got through right away when I voted for David, too.
