"Final Two - Wishlist?" |
OK, lets not even talk about the pure dreck that the 'Coronation Song' will be...be that as it may.Historically, the final two pick one past song to repeat, and then one new song of their choice? Which should they repeat? What would you like to see them sing as their final new song choice? David A
--------
I'm positive he'll repeat "Angels" by Robbie Williams. David Cook
-----------
He has so many possible choices for repeats, from "Hello" to "Billie Jean". I would like to see him redo "Hello" in a longer form, personally. For new song choice, i'll have to ponder this for a bit. geekboy

David A: Yes, his "Angels" song went over so well, he'll HAVE to repeat that. I'm not sure of anything else, because I pretty much slept through his other songs (sorry, he was that boring to me!). Since he can 'sing the telephone book', maybe he'll choose to do so?? HA! Randy's love child can do no wrong, after all.....and I do like the kid, really. He's sweet, and he WILL have a career, if he can learn how to ditch dear old daddy.David C: so many to choose from. I'd love to hear "Hello" or even "I Don't Wanna Miss a Thing" (I think that's what it's called??), or any of the other rocking songs he's done. There is nothing he can do that won't bring the house down, if he does it HIS way and keeps it on an even keel. I'm really curious what they've chosen as that ooronation song this year, considering they have 2 males in the finale. Hope it isn't some stupid, sappy thing. If it is, I hope DC can turn it around and amaze us all, once again!!

David CookRepeat- Always- He gave me chills on that one. New- Girls With Guns. What the heck, I picked something a little obscure, but I bet he could belt it out, and I think he's going to need something a little fun with the snooze-fest he is going against, and this Tommy Shaw song fits that bill. Archie Repeat- well, I don't need to hear any of his performances again, but I think he'll do Imagine New- I'd like to see a preview of what we are going to get. How about an Archie version of Girl by Davy Jones? 
Profoundly ignorant since 2008

Archie"Imagine" as the redo Want--whatever that song was Fantasia sang last week is my pick for the new song. I'd love to see Randy pop a blood vessel trying to pimp that.  David Cook. "Hello" as the redo. Want to hear, hard to say, it'll end up being Emo-Rock no matter what it is. I'll say "Kokomo", wasn't that the theme of that Tom Cruise Bar Tending movie?

David A - repeat: Imagine (not that I personally want to hear it, but he got lots of pimping out of it) wish list: November Rain David C - repeat: Hello - that was seriously good! Wish list: A Country Boy Can Survive (Yeah, I know, but it's totally off the wall and would be a 'surprise!)

LAST EDITED ON 05-16-08 AT 05:15 PM (EST)Archie:
Redo - I want him to do whichever Stevie Wonder song it was that he screwed up so badly, in hopes that he'll do it just as badly this time. New - Enter Sandman Cook: Redo - Dare You To Move - I think he could do it justice with more time New - The World I Know - rumors were that he was going to do this last week, and I'd love to hear it As for the "coronation" song, I honestly think he can turn whatever carp they give him into something interesting and listenable.

LAST EDITED ON 05-19-08 AT 02:12 PM (EST)There are rumors on the TWOP boards that this year there is a Clive Davis choice. (Plus 1 idol's choice (reprise or new) and the coronation drek.) I don't think it's been confirmed by any reliable source, but in the current fangirl-frenzy that's going on over there, people seem to be assuming it's true. If so, I'm not too worried. If I remember correctly, he chose well for Bo. I kinda suspect that it's NOT true -- I think someone somewhere said "How come there was no Uncle Clive selection this year?" And then "Maybe it will be for final 2." Voila - rumor. But since Clive's not really officially involved any more, I'll be surprised if they have him pick one. As for what I'd like to hear, I'm assuming Archie will do Imagine for a reprise, some glurgy sweet message song for his new one, and then sing "I Believe This Is My Proud Moment In Heaven" as written. Which DC song do I want to hear? I don't think he should repeat something from last week - too soon. As much as I loved them, I don't think he should repeat his MAJOR moment songs (Hello, Billie Jean, Always Be My Baby, Eleanor Rigby). I'd like to see him do a longer version of something that was WAY too short -- 1st choice Baba O'Reilly. Or All I Really Need, or Dare You To Move. Or, something that was really good, but underrated at the time, like Little Sparrow, or Daytripper. It will depend on what he chooses for his new song. I have faith - he understands programming. Then he will "Cook" the crapination song, and ride off into the sunset with the Idol crown, Mandy Moore, and a few pieces of confetti in his hair.

According to this:http://www.myfoxkc.com/myfox/pages/Home/Detail?contentId=6576725&version=6&locale=EN-US&layoutCode=TSTY&pageId=1.1.1 Cookie will be the first ever Idol to sing U2 - "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For" And Archie will be singing "Imagine" and "Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me" (presumedly Uncle Clive's choice). Also, apparently Nigel announced on Ryan's radio show that each Idol was allowed to choose his own crapination song. So good news all around, I think!

13. "RE: Final Two - Wishlist?" |
Thanks for posting this, tamarama. I was logging on this morning to do just that.I think the U2 song is perfect for Cook. I'm not shocked that Archie will repeat "Imagine" I think the BIG NEWS is that the two finalists can choose which coronation song they want. I wonder how many they had to choose from? I think this all gives Cook an edge. He will nail U2, and if he nails the coronation song and molds it to his style, i think he may have this in the bag. On the other hand, we don't know what they have to choose from. Archie will sing "Imagine" (a ballad) and will choose a ballad for his coronation song and sing it as a ballad. Clive will more likely than not pick a ballad for him to sing. He'll do the same old same old. Cook will be exciting tonight. Archie will not. Advantage Cook? geekboy

LAST EDITED ON 05-20-08 AT 10:49 AM (EST)>>Clive will more likely than not pick a ballad for him (Archie) to sing.<< I'm assuming this is the Elton John number -- so Archie has Imagine, Don't Let the Sun... and the craponation song. Yawn. I like these two songs - don't get me wrong - but unfortunately DA will sing them like a mini-Perry Como. No way will DA match Clay's vocals on the Elton John. >>Cook will be exciting tonight. Archie will not.<<
Without a doubt. Plus, there's been talk (EW blog? MTV blog?) about Archie being swallowed up on the 'big' AI stage, while Cook owns it. They're going to be at the Nokia tonight. 'Nuf said. This USA Today article:
http://www.usatoday.com/life/television/news/2008-05-19-idol-davids_N.htm says this:
Cook says his songs offer a chance to show off his versatility. "There's an eclectic mix, which I'm excited about. I get to do the real intimate stuff, I get to do the rock song, and I get to do everything in between. I'm stoked." So I'm going to take a wild guess and call the U2 the rock song, and the craponation song the 'in between' -- so I'm kinda leaning toward the U2 being Clive's choice, and DC either reprising or doing a new 'intimate' - maybe even acoustic song. I'm having a hard time thinking he'd consider the craponation song 'intimate' and Clive is more likely to go big than go intimate. (and DANG this fangirliness. I can't type that word in reference to DC without blushing. I'm pathetic.) Mariah Carey is rumored to be on Wednesday night - so I don't think he'll do "Always be my baby" on Tuesday. ETA: I've heard that they had 10 coronation songs to choose from, and I've heard that they had 20. I don't know which is correct.

LAST EDITED ON 05-20-08 AT 01:25 PM (EST)>>Are you serious w/ that Clive Davis pick of "Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me"?<< It's GOT to be Clive's pick -- if Team Archie has said he's singing Imagine & Don't Let the Sun...the 3rd has to be the craponation song, and Imagine is a reprise, so that has to be Archie's choice. Maybe at Uncle Clive's age he can only remember 9 or 10 songs.
(ETA: so there's this guy on my floor named David Cook, and we've been having fun all season asking him what he's going to sing this week, hey, your hair looked better last night, congrats on making the final 2...this morning I walked into work and there are "Vote for David Cook" signs plastered all over our floor  )
