David Cook – “Innocent” (Our Lady Peace)
Aww. Bless his heart. This was his worst performance of the season! But I think he is great anyway, so he only drops to my #2 for the night. I like the song, and I love Our Lady Peace also. I’m not sure if personal issues stood in his way this time or what. I got nervous after I saw this. I have been watching Idol faithfully since season 1, and never, ever have I voted. I actually did vote tonight to try to help him out. I really doubt he’ll be going home this week, but I do suspect there to be a “shock” bottom 3 with him in it. Hopefully he can bounce back next week, better than ever! When David ended his song with the words “Give Back” on his palm, I expected Simon to rip him a new one for that. I flinched myself. Cheesy. Simon actually said that was a very nice thing for him to do. Now that I think about it again, it really was. Although I still can’t help but think “cheese” in the back of my head, I do believe he was very sincere about it and wasn’t just trying to be clever and cute.
