I cannot completely explain my obsession with David Cook. From my previous posts, I have mentioned that I am not a music buff nor would anyone accuse me of knowing the difference between good music and cheesy music. I tend to follow the top 20 - my first concert was New Kids on the Block and I am not ashamed to say that I also went to a Backstreet Boys concert 15 years after that NKOB concert. I like anything that lets me sing to the words and makes me want to get up and dance. The playlists on my (PRODUCT) RED nano range from Kelly Clarkson to Neil Diamond to Van Halen to the Indigo Girls. I am proud that I like what I like and I try not to conform or be something I am not. I guess that has always been something I am proud of, I stick to my true self.
And when David Cook sang Billie Jean on American Idol this year - my first year every watching it - I had a new favorite that I could not wait to add to my playlist. There has not been an artist since well since never that has betwitched me like David Cook. I find myself surfing right over to Youtube to catch his amazing array of performances from this year, amazed by his brilliance, blushing from a school girl crush and in shock that there is actually an American Idol conestant that has amazing creative talent and is actually a nice guy.
I am so happy that this guy won American Idol....not because of the record deal and the media attention and the glory of saying he won....but because he deserved it. He was and is amazing...he made American Idol enjoyable and addictive...and now I have a new artist to get excited about. He has already found a place in my eclectic, crazy and weird iPod playlist.
