After 19 weeks of waiting, the results of this year's American Idol came last night. And as a huge David Cook fan it came as a surprise that he won. Every survey, every vote that I came across through the net all pointed to David 'Archie' to win the finale. Even the judges were on 'Archie's' side on Tuesday's final performances. But hey, I'm not complaining. The better man and singer won. Another high point for me during the finale show was the Gladys Knight's and 'The Pips's never seen before audition. Who on god's earth could have thought of that idea must be a genius. Ben Stiller, Jack Black and Robert 'Iron Man' Downey Jr.'s dancing antics was just hilarious. Apart from the results, this segment was not to be missed.
Finally, 'Mr' George Michael's performance blew me away. Though having a flu at the time, he managed to mesmerise everyone in the Nokia 7000 seated hall to a stand still. He was able to belt out 'Praying For Time' flawlessly. Rarely do we see Simon Cowell giving a standing ovation, but even he was awed by the performance. Now since American Idol is over, I'm left to ponder what to do on Wednesdays and Thursdays evenings. Oh well, it will start all over again in January 2009. Not holding my breathe though...
