American Idol 7 Top 6 – David Cook
April 23, 2008 by Jeanne
David Cook chose “Music of the Night” and Webber said that it was one of the most sensual songs he has ever written. Getting David to practice by singing lustfully into Webber’s eyes was just cruel but hilarious. David started a little shaky but I think it turned out well. I didn’t realize his higher register could be so smooth and strong. Randy said that it was an amazing vocal performance. Paula said that this performance proved how well-rounded he is. Simon said that he made the most of the song he was given.

I thought David did a good job but I didn’t like the way he ended it. I don’t think you go up at the end of a song like this. You go down into the darker regions.
It’s tough cramming these songs into a minute and a half or whatever they are giving them these days. It’s not fair to the song or the singer. Six songs equals 10 or 12 minutes out of a 60 minute show. It seems like they could do better than that.
