American Idol 7 Top 8 Guys David Cook – Video

David Cook sang Lionel Richie‘s “Hello” and I was really, really surprised.  I haven’t been a big fan of David’s but I really liked this.  Randy and Paula but said it could (and should) be a single on the radio right now and Simon said that it was a very brave thing to do and he loved it.

    Loved it! LOVE LOVE LOVE-ed it.
    Never liked Lionel Richie in the 80′s so this was a BIG surprise.
    Got to say though if it really is about what holds up in the real world and I was the world..lol..which I am in my world.. lol ..the only person I would go and pay to see is Jason Castro..but that’s because as I have gotten older I am more into simplicity..but this is something I wouldn’t change radio stations if it came on.

    Likewise, I think this was the best performance of the night and like Jeanne, I was surprised. I liked it though.
