Diamonds in the Rough?

Well, it was interesting...no? But seriously, how cute is he. I just wanna squish him.

Some have said, he butchered "Caroline" Oh please, they just don't like it NOT the Neil D way. I thought he was FANTABULOUS!!! So fun, and showed so much personality!





Cook was good. The others oh my...just send them all home, and get on with it. :) Just kidding...I LOVE YOU BROOKE!! I think Jason has just given up! Goodness!

Oh, here's an interesting article in our local paper. People are SO annoying. It kills me, how they think he can't possibly be that nice! But, I wanted to share it with you, cuz well, WE need to make comments on it, and stand up for our David!! ...mine is the first comment! :)

The War of the Davids

Ok. So I've been having many discussions about my David. :) Here is what I've been saying.

I've said it before, but it will be the battle of the Davids. But here's the thing. Cook will be so much better off, NOT winning. And I'm not just saying it, cuz I love MY David. Look at Chris Daughtry. That boy was able to go on, and do anything he wanted to, and is a HUGE Rock Star now. I just think, Archuleta, fits the AI bill more. He's young, and cute, and can use AI as his catapult, kinda like Kelly Clarkson did. Now I'm not saying Archuleta, isn't talented enough, to do it on his own, but I do think, he is more of an all american role model type. No?

I think Cook is AMAZINGLY talented, I don't really like the sound he creates, but then again, I'm a totally geek, who likes pretty music. :)

Just vote for MY David, and the world will be a better place! :) :)

Um...GUESS WHAT???

Holy Crap. So I'm at a distict PTA meeting yesterday, and I'm talking to the Head of the Arts program in Murray. I've known and worked with her for years. Anyway, she tells me, "Oh, there's David Archuleta's Mom!" I almost died! My friend told me, she voted 200 times, I told her I texted 100. We chuckled about it. Two old ladies voting like that for American Idol! :)

ANYWAY...I told my friends I HAD to go give David's mom a hug! They told me not to embarrass myself! Goodness... So when the meeting was over, a went up to her, and said, "I just HAVE to give you a hug!" I told her how David had sung with my choir a few years ago, and how excited I was that he was on Idol. And now to be doing so well! I told her how proud of him I was, how proud I am of him being true to himself, and being such a good kid! I told her to tell him, a crazy 40 yr old Mom in Murray was proud of him, and voting like crazy!!! :) She asked my name, and thanked me! It was SO great! I almost told her about this blog, but thought I might scare her, I'll save that for our next meeting! ;)

Then as everyone was leaving, I said to Mary Ann, the Arts lady, "So are we gearing up for Idol to come?" She said, " OH MY HECK YES!!! WE ARE SO EXCITED!!!" I told her I would do ANYTHING she needed me to do!!!

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! Oh, if you are NOT aware. Idol sends the top 4 home. Um that would be the week after next. Seriously, might puke, I'm so excited.

I'll keep you posted...of course...like I wouldn't!

Oh, and just cuz I'm a MAJOR dorkus. I made a video, just so you can be sure to hear my David!! :) It's hilarious. Well, the song, plus the video, is hilarious.

Enjoy! I am cracking myself up today! :)

Creepy Webber

K, Andrew L We bber has written some of my favorite shows. Phan tom, Joseph(one of my top 5) And music from others. So I was really excited about this week.

That said, I have always thought he was a bit odd. The one fact that he thinks Sara Bri ghtman, is talented...oh sorry... But was he a bit strange last night? Every last statement about the kids he had, was like..."well, if they do this...it MIGHT be good." What the H***??!! Maybe I was in a bad place last night. I'll have to rewatch it. But I doubt it. What did you guys think? He just seemed annoyed, and didn't really have anything positive to say. Whatever...

The David's were GREAT! How fun to see Cook, Singing NON rockish. And how great was "take you were you want to ...BE!!!!" He nailed that! It's one of my favotire parts of the song!

Here's Cook's performance.

Poor Brooke. I just wanna give her a hug. But I think her time has come.I think the stress is getting to her. I thought it was very powerful-emotionally, but it felt a little akward, her singing, PLEASE LOVE ME...into the camera. I still love her though!! :)

Castro, was just weird. Too breathy, too castro, wrong song. He sure is pretty though... :)

Sysha...hum. There is something about her, that sets me the wrong way. I just feel like she's overconfidant. I wasn't feelin it, as Randy would say.

Carly, um...Screaming Jesus Chr ist...ya, not good. I just felt like it didn't fit at all. I know that show, is ALL like that, but...I don't know, is was just weird, and loud.

And my David. Oh that boy! I kinda wish he would show a little more personality though. He is so sweet, and reserved. Of course maybe that's why people love him! But the little girls hugging him? Um...that was annoying...and I think David was so uncomfortable. Ryan can be SO stupid.

As always...if you missed it!



So is "the Lord" gonna sing tonight? Goodness... If Sarah B comes out, I'm gonna puke. *smirk*

Oh, one more thing. Em and I went to preschool reading night at the elementary. She got to make a little book. "I see 1 pink pig...2 yellow bees, ect. And she would glue them in. Well, the last page was "I see lots of _____." So I said, what do you see lots of? She thought for a minute, then I said, how about David? She light up, and drew a picture of David, and wrote his name! She is so funny. She showed the teacher in charge of the activity, who was proud to tell me, her son Cam- yes Stacie, Rachelle:)- is friends with David. And that he texts Cam about once a week! Emma about fell off her chair! It was cute!

Can't wait for tonight!!!

Songwriter contest

So I keep hearing about this song contest for the winner to sing. Well, I had a minute today, and checked it out.

I find it very interesting. The songs American Idol narrowed down to. There are 20 to pick from. If you remember last year. It was down to Jordan and Blake. The song that "won" suited Jordan, NOT Blake. HE knew it, and SHE won.

So this year, The 20 songs are a very interesting mix of ballads-David A, and Rock songs-David Cook. it may be my imagination, you tell me! Some country songs too. But mostly the other two.

Some of them...um...hello??? Did you know what the theme was??? Goodness... It's too bad the winner can't write his own song. YES, I said HIS!

So check it out for yourself. What do YOU think??

Songwriter Contest!

Proud Momma

Can I just say quick, how proud I am of my David. If you watched tonight, Ryan, did that stupid..."You go to which group, you think is the top 3." So David sat down on the stage!!! Someone did that in another season too. I love that he, and the other person, wouldn't go there. Ya know...I think it was Melinda Doolittle...anyone?

So I'm glad Miss Cook is gone. And how cute was Brooke, with Kristy Lee.

Mariah, was ...eh... too much sound effects. I like her when she just SINGS her guts out! Ya know?

Anyway, those are my thoughts tonight.

You got any??? This WAS supposed to be a discussion place...goodness people...

The Davids

Did you watch last night? Oh my goodness. First off, I LOVE Mariah Carey. One of my favs. But...she is SO hard to sing. Her songs... So I was very intrigued to hear how the gang would do!

I should have said before, but I TOTALLY predicted, what David A and Brooke would do. I seriously almost fell off my chair, when Ryan said what songs they were doing.

David, was beyond words. I think it was his best by far. Here if you missed it...I'm here to serve! :)



Brooke, if I'm being honest...;) scared me a little. She seemed so off, and uncomfortable.

David Cook...sure he's talented, but he is just not my cup of tea. I can just see it now, David vs David! How great would that be??? ... and the winner of American idol is... DAVID!!! haha

Can't wait for tonight when Mariah will sing. Dreading the group number...oh my hell. It's weird, I'm a choir geek, but oh how I hate the froup numbers on AI. THey all just try to outsing each other. hate it

I loved Carly, but she seems to be stuggling a bit. Eh...there can only be one winner, right?

So Nick and I are chatting while I write this. He's such a cynic. He's says, "So Mom what will you do if David gets voted off." Um hello??? I voted for him like 140 times last night. Texting. Emma got a few in on the phone. She gets so frustrated when it's busy! So he was saying David Cook was gonna win. Just to anagonize me, of course. But here's my thoughts.

David Cook, doesn't have the "little girl/old lady" vote. Ya know? He is truly talented, but he's a rocker. Cook's fans aren't going to vote 140 times. HAHA...

I'm sad, I know it!

I've probably said this before, but since Clay, in the past seasons there, hasn't been another Clay for me. He sings from the heart, and sings so pretty. Clay made me cry on more than one occasion. Still does. David is my Clay, and he just happens to be from where I live!! It works out well!!

Until next time...
