Idol Face Off – David Archuleta vs Matt Corby

I’ve been getting emails about bringing the Face Offs back and here we are (special thanks to Nick!).  First up – American Idol finalist, David Archuleta, versus last season’s Australian Idol runnerup, Matt Corby, singing “Another Day in Paradise.”  I honestly think this is a great match up since they are both 17 (right?) and are/were clear favorites.  Watch the performances and vote!

    I listened to Matt first and was going to vote they were both good because Matt does sing great, then I listened to David and he just sounded awesome. I voted for David.He has that extra tone to his voice that made me vote David.

    I think Davids version was better but Matts voice is so much more appealing. David does have a beautiful classical voice but Matt still has just as good a technical voice and is flawless in most of his songs. Matt has a light and shade style that draws you in to his world, and has a superb vocal range, with a very sexy low tone. Matts style is unique and his voice is exquisitly hypnotising. Listen to Matt sing “Bedouin song” and you will know what I mean. Matt all the way. Cant wait for him to bring out an album. Good luck to David too.

    I am a big David A. fan and I listened to both performances with an open mind. David was not up to par but still outsang Matt. Matt has a good voice but not the gift that David has.

    Though I’m a huuuuge David Archuleta fan, Matt Corby did a better job with this one. David A. had strep throat during this performance… but, take a more classical song and David would run Matt over. Matt’s Music of the Night was atrocious.

    To be honest David A. is SOOO overrated it is sick!!! DAVID COOK ALL THE WAY!!!!!

    Matt Corby OWNED this one. It was a strikingly reserved version, and he got a well-earned touchdown for this performance. Great stuff.
