David Cook - Billie ( Billy ) Jean - American Idol Top 10

Back


I thought this was a really good performance and an awesome modified arrangement of Chris Cornell (as mentioned by Ryan Seacrest).

aaa... hard to say, WTF, the "original" rendition people are talking about.
Art is interpretation... it evolves, or dies, or becomes fodder for bottom feeders.
Or then again, ... exposes the ignorant.
Outstanding rendition... the arrangement, deftly applied and delivered. PROB?
THIS RENDITION entertained me.Not you? OK,.. I respect your right to be biased, clueless OR BRILLIANT BEYOND BELIEF, what ever.
I do , personally recommend a cat scan. ASAP.
Or, publish your insights, No whining mouth BS!

THIS IS THE BEST AI PERFORMANCE EVER! and his cd is still better!

IT's not that the original one was better. This just pretty much sucks. He seems to have talent, but the music, lyrics and his voice are not coming together nicely. It simply doesn't work.

he always credited Chris Cornell for this version. But he sing it better anyway.

Geez. Everyone's all about how the original was better. :O It was MJ Week that week, right? He didn't take credit for that version, and he was simply trying to make his way through. His singing style doesn't really remind you of MJ, right? He was being intelligent and singing a version more to his style; he played the correct cards. Besides, don't knock him. I'd like to see you guys do what he did.
