Idol has a true Rocker!!

American idol has a true rocker.... David Cook!!


Since the very beginning of Idol the judges have always said... "take risks" or "make the song your own" even things like "be different from the original". David Cook has consistantly taken risks... personalized songs, and deviated just enough from the original that it makes him THE idol to beat. Each week he has shown himself to be the consistant performer... and his song interpretationa and innovation shows his true musicianship. Most performers are simply singers... and occasionally you will get those who are musicians (guitar, piano), but David stikes me as the first innovative arranger and producer of music. For me... Day Tipper, elenor rigby, Hello by Lionele Ritchie, So happy together, and now Billie Jean... will not be the same for me... they have a whole new musical twist. And its a good one!!
