Maris, when the show was being taped, he was doing this David Foster tribute show.

I didn't know why he was in Vegas but now I do. I wonder why he was doing the tribute and no one else from this year's Idol.

Mamie, I think it's because Michael was his favorite this year, just like Katharine McPhee was his favorite 2 years ago, and she is in the show. I know Kat and Foster worked together after Idol, maybe Michael is his new project? Who knows.

this is from wikipedia regarding michael johns and david foster.

"During his appearance with David Foster on Access Hollywood, he sang a soft rock song, "Ain't No Sunshine" with the help and constructive criticism from Foster. Surprisingly, Foster invited Johns to play in his one-night tribute concert, David Foster & Friends on May 23, 2008 (also featuring Andrea Bocelli, Michael Buble and Josh Groban) at the Mandalay Bay Events Center on the Las Vegas Strip.[18]Johns confirmed that he accepted the invitation on the Kyle and Jackie O show in Australia[19]"

I thought David Cook was hooked up with Lacey Schwimmer from So You Think You Can Dance? But now I'm reading he had a date with Kimberly Caldwell? What did I miss?

Talking about the "I Am Your Brother," guy, that song stuck in my head and it took me several days to get it out.

I wonder if someone will take that song and record it and make a big hit of it. It actually has some nice sentiments and a catchy tune. Just not enough to make a whole song.

LOL - I liked his little song too. It was one of the few bits that they have done over the years that was fun and entertaining.

David Cook is coming across really well in his interviews. And I actually like that hokey winning song...I think he can actually do something with it.

I may be becoming a bit obsessed.

So another season is over! I'm curious though as to what single performance throughout the entire season really stood out for you? Any thoughts?

Although I was very happy with David's win, I'm not just talking about his performances. When asking this question I mean anyone performing at any time during the season.

That's the kind of response that I was interesting in hearing. Some of the contestants that don't end up being final contenders (though Jason did make final four) give very memorable performances. Jason's performance of Hallelujah was one of those moments for me as well.

Loved David Cook's performance of Billie Jean as well. At first I didn't even recognize what he was singing!

David Cook got me with his "Billie Jean"

Jason Castro got me (but couldn't keep me) with his "Somewhere over the rainbow"

Loved Cook's "Billie Jean"! To the list I have to add:

Chikezie - "She's a Woman"!

I thought he never had a prayer to win but this was a show-stopper and good enough to get him a spot in the Top 10. And a ticket to the summer tour. :-)

Me too Brenda. Also as a HUGE Chris Cornell Fan, Billie Jean got me bigtime! Not to mention Daytripper and Elenor Rigby. I still can't believe DC used a voice box lol.

ETA: It was his rendition of Happy Together that really got me obsessed!

The only download I have is one of Michael Johns (and right now I can't remember which one). But I too loved Castro's Hallelujiah, Cook's Billie Jean and Hello (which is also a favorite tune of mine originally done by Lionel Richie).

I checked and the MJ tune is "It's All Wrong But It's Alright." I thought that rendition was (to quote Randy) "MOLTEN HOT BABY!"

And while I was browsing around my iTunes who do y'all think has the #1 download today? DAVID COOK.

Can Brenda say that David Cook had her at Hello?

I'm sorry, I couldn't help myself. It is late here in Texas but my computer has been on the blink for two weeks and I'm enjoying the heck outof having it back up and running. Anybody else have a Dell laptop that the power cord has gone out on?

My HP one did but it might have been due to my dog thinking it was a chew toy!

I found out when I reordered my power cord (which is the #1 selling accessory) that it is a problem many people have. And it costs almost $100 to reorder and ship! I'm going to protest...LOL!

Add Jason Castro's version of "OVER THE RAINBOW" as another favorite.
