Kristy Lee Cook - God Bless The U.S.A.




Kristy Lee Cook - God Bless The USA (Studio Version)

Live MP3
Her BEST performance!
Theme: The Year (they were) she was born (1984)

I'm so proud of Kristy Lee Cook tonight! Seriously, she is Very Good! She made us all proud with her song choice and performance. Perfect song for Kristy, indeed. Vocally, IMO, she was spot on; sang it in the usual country manner like Lee Greenwood and I like those country inflections she did. And, wow, she's got a strong, full-bodied, clean, big voice. That's a great performance by Kristy, my gosh. She came alive in her unique way, looking very much like the all-american girl and sounding patriotic too - fitted to a presidential election year's convention performance! How Brilliant! LOVED IT!! I'm so satisfied with this performance. After Simon's most favorable comment, in pure ecstatic joy, Kristy screamed, jumped with hands up in the air, turned around with a big smile, then threw a kiss to the audience and said, "Thank you, you guys are great!" This girl actually has a great natural personality! This might just well be that song to be included in that AI 7 top 10 finalists group record. There will be a new GBTUSA-anthem singer for america and it's Kristy Lee Cook - the new country STAR! KLC is here to stay!

Here are the top 10 performances mp3:


This week's Top 4:
David Cook - the most original of all contestants ever; the new projected winner
Syesha Mercado - a wow performance; the new dark horse and contender
Kristy Lee Cook - the most clever song choice in years; her best performance
Michael Johns - his best performance; his first showing with star-like quality

The rest are good:
Carly Smithson - the last note in the run at the end was off
Brooke White - didn't start off right and repeated the start
Ramiele Malubay - song was too big for her
Chikezie Eze - kind of old fashioned but sounded great to me
David Archuleta - sang a song that didn't sound himself
Jason Castro - might go home. Sang "Fragile" by Sting, good song choice, but his vocals weren't that good tonight, and he sounded like he was eating his lyrics - not impressive guitar-playing either. But I give him credit for singing in Spanish in part.
Movie actors like Paul Newman, Jimmy Stewart, Humphrey Bogart, Katharine Hepburn, Lauren Bacall and Bette Davis make me want to live in the era they lived but I could have been just as inspired even now while I watch their work in films.

Goodbye, Chikezie. I really like your voice. But ppl look for current trends and they didn't see you there. Sorry. Keep on singing, ok? See you on the tour!

'Idol' Banter: Emotional rescue

06:25 AM PT, Mar 26 2008

David Cook “Idol” watchers, it’s time to talk about our feelings. I don’t mean your fanatical devotion to David Cook or my nervous hopes for moody Carly Smithson. It’s time to consider one of the key decisions every aspiring Idol must make as the competition narrows: which emotional state to call his or her own and cultivate.

Last night, the most memorable contestants -- Syesha Mercado, Michael Johns (whew!), David Cook and, heaven help us, his evil cousin
